Answer:

at zero point : GPE = 0 J

at max height : GPE = 633.7 J

Explanation:

the gravitational potential energy at the lowest point is zero

maximum height relative to the lowest point = h =1.70 m

G potential energy at max height = mgh = (38kg)(9.81m/s^2)(1.7)

                                           = 633.7 J

castortr0y [4]

Answer:

W = 1222.4 J = 1.22 KJ

Explanation:

The work done on an object is the product of the force applied on it and the displacement it covers as a result of this force. It must be noted that the component of displacement in the direction of force should only be used. Hence, the work can be calculated as:

W = F d Cosθ

where,

W = Work Done = ?

F = Force Applied = 64 N

d = Distance Covered by Box = 19.1 m

θ = Angle between force and displacement = 0°

Therefore,

W = (64 N)(19.1 m)Cos 0°

<u>W = 1222.4 J = 1.22 KJ</u>

How can two machines appear identical and yet not have the same actual mechanical advantage
STatiana [176]
There are many factors which contributes as to how a machine will be processing the input energy and convert it to output energy. Even with identical mechanism, these factors will have major effect on the output. Some factors are deflection, friction and wear. Some system maybe exposed to poor lubrication than the other which'll produce more friction and wear thus lower mechanical advantage.

When the same masses are heated by the same amount, which of the following substances will heat up the slowest?
DochEvi [55]
When the same masses are heated by the same amount copper will heat up the fastest. Copper is a good conductor of heat that is why it easily heats up. Gold is not a good conductor of heat because of its stable properties.

A disk of radius 10 cm speeds up from rest. it turns 60 radians reaching an angular velocity of 15 rad/s. what was the angular a
stepan [7]

Answer:

a) α = 1.875 \frac{rad}{s^{2} }

b) t = 8 s

Explanation:

Given:

ω1 = 0 \frac{rad}{s}

ω2 = 15 \frac{rad}{s}

theta (angular displacement) = 60 rad

*side note: you can replace regular, linear variables in kinematic equations with angular variables (must entirely replace equations with angular variables)*

a) α = ?

(ω2)^2 = (ω1)^2 + 2α(theta)

15^{2} = 0^{2} + 2(α)(60)

225 = 120α

α = 1.875 \frac{rad}{s^{2} }

b)

α = (ω2-ω1)/t

t = (ω2-ω1)/α = (15-0)/1.875 = 8

t = 8 s
