You are climbing in the High Sierra when you suddenly find yourself at the edge of a fog-shrouded cliff. To find the height of t

his cliff, you drop a rock from the top; 8.60 s later you hear the sound of the rock hitting the ground at the foot of the cliff.Part AIgnoring air resistance, how high is the cliff if the speed of sound is 330 m/s?Suppose you had ignored the time it takes the sound to reach you. In that case, would you have overestimated or underestimated the height of the cliff?a. underestimatedb. overestimated

5 0

Answer:

Height with sound ignored = Gravity x Time taken = 9.8 x 8.60 = 84.28 meters

Time taken by the sound = 84.28/330 = 0.255 seconds

Height with sound involved = (84.28 x 0.255) + 84.28 = 105.80 meters

a. Underestimated

How much work does it take to lift 345 boxes to a height of 6.00 m of each box has a mass of 7.89 kg
Art [367]

Given the value of the mass of each boxes, the work done in lifting the boxes to the given height is 1.6 × 10⁵J.

<h3>Work done</h3>

Work done is simply defined as the energy transfer that takes place when an object is either pushed or pulled over a certain distance by an external force. It is expressed as;

W = F × d

Where F is force applied or Weight and d is distance

Also Force = Weight = mass × acceleration due to gravity.

Since gravity is acting on the boxes as it been lift

W = Weight × height from ground level

W = mg × d

Where m is mass of the boxes, g is accelration due to gravity( g = 9.8m/s² ) and d is distance from ground level.

Given the data in the question;

  • Since each box has a mass of 7.89 kg
  • Mass of the 345 boxes = 345 × 7.89 kg = 2722.05kg
  • Distance or height d = 6.0m
  • Work done W = ?

To determine the work done, we substitute our values into the expression above.

W = mg × d

W = 2722.05kg × 9.8m/s² × 6.0m

W = 160056.5kgm²/s²

W = 160056.5J

W = 1.6 × 10⁵J

Therefore,  Given the value of the mass of each boxes, the work done in lifting the boxes to the given height is 1.6 × 10⁵J.

A 392 N wheel comes off a moving truck and rolls without slipping along a highway. At the bottom of a hill it is rotating at 24
alex41 [277]

Answer:

h=12.41m

Explanation:

N=392

r=0.6m

w=24 rad/s

I=0.8*m*r^{2}

So the weight of the wheel is the force N divide on the gravity and also can find momentum of inertia to determine the kinetic energy at motion

N=m*g\\m=\frac{N}{g}\\m=\frac{392N}{9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}}

m=40kg

moment of inertia

M_{I}=0.8*40.0kg*(0.6m} )^{2}\\M_{I}=11.5 kg*m^{2}

Kinetic energy of the rotation motion

K_{r}=\frac{1}{2}*I*W^{2}\\K_{r}=\frac{1}{2}*11.52kg*m^{2}*(24\frac{rad}{s})^{2}\\K_{r}=3317.76J

Kinetic energy translational

K_{t}=\frac{1}{2}*m*v^{2}\\v=w*r\\v=24rad/s*0.6m=14.4 \frac{m}{s}\\K_{t}=\frac{1}{2}*40kg*(14.4\frac{m}{s})^{2}\\K_{t}=4147.2J

Total kinetic energy  

K=3317.79J+4147.2J\\K=7464.99J

Now the work done by the friction is acting at the motion so the kinetic energy and the work of motion give the potential work so there we can find height

K-W=E_{p}\\7464.99-2600J=m*g*h\\4864.99J=m*g*h\\h=\frac{4864.99J}{m*g}\\h=\frac{4864.99J}{392N}\\h=12.41m

Janelle wants to buy some strings of decorative lights for her home. She is trying to decide between two strings of lights that
inysia [295]
If she has a choice and the wiring details are stated on the packaging,
then Janelle should look for lights that are wired in parallel within the
string, and she should avoid lights that are wired in series within the string. 

If a single light in a parallel string fails, then only that one goes out. 
The rest of the lights in the string continue to shimmer and glimmer.

If a single light in a series string fails, then ALL of the lights in that string
go out, and it's a substantial engineering challenge to determine which light
actually failed.

Compare and contrast electric potential energy and electric potential difference? Explain.
forsale [732]

Answer:

<u><em>Electric Potential Energy:</em></u>

The energy that is needed to move a charge against an electric firld is called Electric Potential Energy

<u><em>Electric Potential Difference:</em></u>

The amount of work done in carrying a unit charge from one point to an other in an electric field is called Electric Potential Difference.

<u><em>Relation:</em></u>

Relation between Electric potential and electrical potential energy is given by

\delta V=\frac{PE}{q}

Here PE represents Electric potential energy

and \delta V is Electric potential difference

it means electric potential difference is the difference in electric potential energy divided by the charge.
