A fully loaded, slow-moving freight elevator has a cab with a total mass of 1250 kg, which is required to travel upward 49 m in

3.1 min, starting and ending at rest. The elevator's counterweight has a mass of only 995 kg, and so the elevator motor must help. What average power is required of the force the motor exerts on the cab via the cable?

Answer:

659.01W

Explanation:

The cab has a mass of 1250 kg, the weight of the cab represented by Wc will be

Wc = mass of the cab × acceleration due to gravity in m/s²

Wc = 1250 × 9.81 = 12262.5 N

but the counter weight of the elevator represented by We = mass × acceleration due to gravity = 995 × 9.81 = 9760.95 N

Net weight = weight of the cab - counter weight of the elevator = Wc - We = 12262.5 - 9760.95 = 2501.55 N

the motor of the elevator will have to provide this in form of work

work done by the elevator to lift the cab to height of 49 m = net weight × distance (height) = 2501.55 × 49m

power provided by the motor of the elevator = workdone by the motor / time in seconds

Power = (2501.55 × 49) ÷ ( 3.1 × 60 seconds) = 659.01 W

What could you do to change the volume of a gas?
Lorico [155]
The ONLY way to change the volume of a sample of gas is to transfer it to a container with different volume.
Simply changing its temperature or pressure in the same jar won't do it. Any amount of gas always fills whatever container you keep it in.

Through what potential difference would you need to accelerate an alpha particle, starting from rest, so that it will just reach
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

\Delta V    = 1.8 \times 10^7 V

Explanation:

GIVEN

diameter = 15 fm  =15 \times 10^{-15}m

we use here energy conservation

K_{i}+U_{i} =K_{f}+U_{f}

there will be some initial kinetic  energy but after collision kinetic energy will zero

K_{i} + 0 = 0 + \frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon _{0}} \frac{(2e)(92e)}{7.5 \times 10^{-15}}

on solving these equations we get kinetic energy initial

KE_{i} = 5.65\times 10 ^{-12} \times \frac  {1 eV}{1.6 \times 10^{-19}}

KE_{i} = 35.33 J ..............(i)

That is, the alpha particle must be fired with 35.33 MeV of kinetic energy. An alpha particle with charge q = 2  e

and gains kinetic energy K  =e∆V  ..........(ii)

 by accelerating through a potential difference ∆V

Thus the alpha particle will

just reach the {238}_U nucleus after being accelerated through a potential difference  ∆V

equating (i) and second equation we get

e∆V  = 35.33 Me V

\Delta V = \frac{35.33}{2}  MV\\\Delta V    = 1.8 \times 10^7 V
