(1 pt) A bucket of water of mass 20 kg is pulled at constant velocity up to a platform 35 meters above the ground. This takes 14
Elenna [48]

Answer:

w = 5832.372 Joules

Explanation:

Mass of water, m = 20 kg

The water was pulled up to a height of 35 meters, i.e. h = 35 m

It takes 14 minutes to pull up the water through the height, 35 m

speed = distance/ time = 35/14 = 2.5 m/min

The bucket's height, y = speed * time = 2.5t meters

6 kg of water drips out of the bucket throughout the 14 minutes

The rate at which the water drips drips out = (6/14) = 0.4286 kg/min

Mass of water that drips out in time, t = 0.4286t kg

The mass of water remaining = (20 - 0.4286t) kg

Change in Workdone, Δw = mgΔy

Δy = 2.5 Δt

Δw = mg *  2.5 Δt

dw =  (20 - 0.4286t)g2.5 dt

integrating both sides

dw = (50g - 1.07gt)dt

w = \int\limits^a_b {(50g-1.07gt)} \, dx where b = 0, a = 14

w = 50gt - 1.07g(t²)/2      g = 9.8 m/s²

w = 490t - 5.243t²

w = (490*14 - 5.243*14²) - (490*0 - 5.243*0²)

w = 6860 - 1027.628

w = 5832.372 Joules

When visiting some countries, you may see a person balancing a load on the head. Explain why the center of mass of the load need
Vinvika [58]

Explanation:

If the center of the load is directly above the vertebrae, there is no torque in the system. This is a good thing so that the vertebrae are not put out of alignment over time. (Of course, this still doesn't prevent compression of the vertebrae over time, which is a possibility.)

Accelerating car is a _______
Pavel [41]

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity as a function of time. For example a car traveling at 50 km/hr starts to accelerate, 10 seconds after, its speed changes to 100 km/hr then the acceleration of the car during the time can be calculated as below: initial speed = 50 km/hr.
