The work is path independent since we have a conservative force.
Thus
Answer (1)
Work = force * distance.
We must produce twice as much energy as we are lifting the weight twice as high.
But we are not increasing the force so we must increase the length of the ramp ( distance ) instead.
The new length will be twice as great as the previous length.
So 8 metres is required.
25 kg * 8 m = work = 100 kg * 2 m
Answer:
A Thermal energy was converted to kinetic energy
Answer:
Speed; v = 17 m/s
Explanation:
We are given;
Radius; r = 110m
Angle; θ = 15°
Now, we know that in circular motion,
v² = rg•tanθ
Thus,
v = √(rg•tanθ)
Where,
v is velocity
r is radius
g is acceleration due to gravity
θ is the angle
Thus,
v = √(rg•tanθ) = √(110 x 9.8•tan15)
v = √(288.85)
v = 17 m/s
