A 2100-kg pile driver is used to drive a steel I-beam into the ground. The pile driver falls 5.00 m before coming into contact w

ith the top of the beam. Then it drives the beam 12.0 cm farther into the ground as it comes to rest. Using energy considerations, calculate the average force the beam exerts on the pile driver while the pile driver is brought to rest. a) m=2100 kg b) Xi=5.00m c) Xf=12.0 cm =.12m

Answer:

   f = 878,080 N

Explanation:

mass of pile driver (m) = 2100 kg

distance of pile driver to steel beam (s) = 5 m

depth of steel driven (d) = 12 cm = 0.12 m

acceleration due to gravity (g0 = 9.8 m/s^{2}

calculate the average force exerted on the pile driver by the beam.

  • from work done = force x distance
  • work done = change in potential energy of the pile driver
  • equating the two equations above we have

               force x distance = m x g x (s - d)

              f x 0.12 = 2100 x 9.8 x (5- (-0.12))

              d = - 0.12 because the steel beam went down at we are taking its  

              initial position to be an origin point which is 0

              f = ( 2100 x 9.8 x (5- (-0.12)) ) ÷ 0.12

                   f = 878,080 N

Atoms are known to form charges due to their ability to gain and lose electrons in reactions. As a result, atoms
galben [10]

Answer:

C. Fe: 24 electrons

Explanation:

From the analogy given, the atom with a charge of +2 is Fe having 24 electrons.

To calculate the charges on an atom;

     Number of charges = Number of protons - Number of electrons.

   O: 10 electrons: 8 protons = 8 - 10 = -2

   N: 10 electrons; 7 protons = 7 - 10 = -3

   Cl: 18 electrons; 17 protons = 17 - 18 = -1

So;

    Fe: 24 electrons and 26 protons = 26 -24  = +2

Therefore, the solution is Fe

A physics professor is pushed up a ramp inclined upward at an angle 33.0° above the horizontal as he sits in his desk chair tha
Andru [333]

Answer:

2.51 m/s

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Angle, A = 33°

Mass, m = 90kg

Inclined distance, D = 2m

Force, F = 600N

Initial speed, u = 2.3m/s

From the relationship between work and kinetic energy, we know that:

Work done = change in kinetic energy

W = 0.5m(v² - u²)

We also know that work done is tẹ product of force and distance, hence, net work done will be the sum of the total work done by the force from the students and gravity.

Hence,

W = F*D*cosA - w*D*sinA

w = m*9.8 = weight

=> W = 600*2*cos33 - 90*9.8*2*sin33

W = 45.7J

=> 45.7 = 0.5*m*(v² - u²)

45.7 = 0.5*90*(v² - 2.3²)

45.7 = 45(v² - 5.29)

=> v² - 5.29 = 1.016

v² = 6.306

v = 2.51 m/s

The final velocity is 2.51 m/s

Paula spots a glider located at an angle of elevation of 42 degrees. the distance between the glider and paula is 3280 feet. to
fomenos
This situation represents triangle with one angle of 90 degrees. That angle is directly below glider. That means that we can you basic trigonometry functions.

sin42 = h/3280

Now we express h.
h = 3280* sin42 
h = 2195 feet

The answer is 2195 feet.

Bernoulli's principle can be used to explain the lift force on an airplane wing. How must an airplane's wing be designed to ensu
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

D. Airplane wings must be designed to ensure that air molecules move more rapidly over the top surface of the wing, creating a region of lower pressure.

Explanation:

Bernoulli's theory operates on the assumption that its shape makes the air travel more over the top of the wing than under it as a plane moves through the air. Due to the pressure difference, wings feel a lifting force and create lift force. when pressure decrease than the velocity of the fluid will increase.

Therefore the answer is D.
