Wait what is m/s?
Can you tell me that so i could help
Okay so yeah u have to minus then subtract then decide it it’s a method i was taught to do
Explanation:
Kinetic Energy Formula = ½mv²
- ½×800kg×(23m/s)²
- 400kg×529m²/s²
- 211600 kg•m²/s²
- 211700 joule Answer
Answer:
The mass of the other worker is 45 kg
Explanation:
The given parameters are;
The gravitational potential energy of one construction worker = The gravitational potential energy of the other construction worker
The mass of the lighter construction worker, m₁ = 90 kg
The height level of the lighter construction worker's location = h₁
The height level of the other construction worker's location = h₂ = 2·h₁
The gravitational potential energy, P.E., is given as follows;
P.E. = m·g·h
Where;
m = The mass of the object at height
g = The acceleration due to gravity
h = The height at which is located
Let P.E.₁ represent the gravitational potential energy of one construction worker and let P.E.₂ represent the gravitational potential energy of the other construction worker
We have;
P.E.₁ = P.E.₂
Therefore;
m₁·g·h₁ = m₂·g·h₂
h₂ = 2·h₁
We have;
m₁·g·h₁ = m₂·g·2·h₁
m₁ = 2·m₂
90 kg = 2 × m₂
m₂ = (90 kg)/2 = 45 kg
The mass of the other construction worker is 45 kg.
