A bucket that has a mass of 20 kg when filled with sand needs to be lifted to the top of a 15 meter tall building. You have a ro

prohojiy [21]

Answer:

work done lifting the bucket (sand and rope) to the top of the building,

W=67.46 Nm

Explanation:

in this question we have given

mass of bucket=20kg

mass of rope= $.2\frac{kg}{m}$

height of building= 15 meter

We have to find the work done lifting the bucket (sand and rope) to the building =work done in lifting the rope + work done in lifting the sand

work done in lifting the rope is given as, $W_{1}=Force \times displacement$

= $\int\limits^{15}_0 {.2x} \, dx$ ..............(1)

= $.1\times 15^2$

=22.5 Nm

work done in lifting the sand is given as, $W_{2}=Force \times displacement$

$W_{2}=\int\limits^{15}_0 F \, dx$ .................(2)

Here,

F=mx+c

here,

c=20-18

c=2

m= $\frac{20-18}{15-0}$

m=.133

Therefore,

$F=.133x+2$

Put value of F in equation 2

$W_{2}=\int\limits^{15}_0 (.133x+2) \, dx$

$W_{2}=.133 \times 112.5+2\times15\\W_{2}=14.96+30\\W_{2}=44.96 Nm$

Therefore,

work done lifting the bucket (sand and rope) to the top of the building, $W=W_{1}+W_{2}$

W=22.5 Nm+44.96 Nm

W=67.46 Nm

A straight wire 20 cm long, carrying a current of 4 A, is in a uniform magnetic field of 0.6 T. What is the force on the wire wh

zheka24 [161]

Answer:

Magnetic force, F = 0.24 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Current flowing in the wire, I = 4 A

Length of the wire, L = 20 cm = 0.2 m

Magnetic field, B = 0.6 T

Angle between force and the magnetic field, θ = 30°. The magnetic force is given by :

$F=ILB\ sin\theta$

$F=4\ A\times 0.2\ m\times 0.6\ T\ sin(30)$

F = 0.24 N

So, the force on the wire at an angle of 30° with respect to the field is 0.24 N. Hence, this is the required solution.
