In one eight-hour workday, a forklift operator at a particular distribution warehouse lifts a total of 100,000 N of boxes. Each

box must be lifted to a height of 1.5 m and carried an average of 10 m to the shipping dock. What is the net work done against gravity?

Answer:

150000 J

Explanation:

Only the work that is used to lift the boxes up by 1.5 m is counted against gravity. The work that is used to move 10m to the dock is not.

This work done to lift up by 1.5m is the product of force lifted F = 100 000 N and the vertical distance in height h = 1.5m

W = F*h = 100000*1.5 = 150000 J

David is driving a steady 28.0 m/s when he passes Tina, who is sitting in her car at rest. Tina begins to accelerate at a steady
rodikova [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let t represent the time for Tina to catch David.

Hence, considering the equation of linear motion S = ut + 1/2at^2..... 1

For David u = 28.0 m/s where 'a' is set to nought

S = ut

S = 28t.......2

For Tina consider equation 1

Where acceleration = 2.90m/s^2 and u is set at nought

S = 1/2×2.90 m/s×t^2.......3

Equate 2 and 3

28t = 1.45t^2

Divide through by t

28 = 1.45t

t = 28/1.45

t = 19.31seconds

Now put the value of t into equation 3

S = 1/2×2.90 m/s×t^2.......3

= 1.45×20×20

= 580m

Tina must have driven 580meters before passing David

Considering the equation of linear motion : V^2 = U^2+2as

Where u is set at nought

V^2 = 2as

V^2 = 2×2.9×580

V^2 = 3364

V = √3364

V = 58m/s

Her speed will be 58m/s

Testing shows that a sample of wood from an artifact contains 25% of the
daser333 [38]

Answer:

The artifact is 11,460 years old.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Given that,

The half life of the carbon-14 is 5730  years and we are left with 255 of the sample of wood from an arti-fact.

So it takes 5730 years for the sample to reduce into half

Initially there will be 100% of the sample so

after first 5730 years, the sample reduces into 50% percent

Now the left 50% sample will take another 5730 years to decay into half of its amount.

after next 5730 years  the sample reduces into 25% percent

So totally after 2 half-life the sample reduces into 25%

That is (5730 +5730) years = 11460 years

EARTH SCIENCE PLEASE ANSWER
Rzqust [24]

The Earth Science answers are shown below.

Explanation:

1. The movement of the sun will change the angle it has on the sky in 30 minutes, it is always moving from the east to the west, so in 30 minutes it would move more west, no matter at what time you make the experiment. From Earth, the Sun looks like it moves across the sky in the daytime and appears to disappear at night. This is because the Earth is spinning towards the east. The Earth spins about its axis, an imaginary line that runs through the middle of the Earth between the North and South poles

2. No, both marks are the same distance from the ground.  the amount of stick above the mark will not affect the distance that the shadow of the mark moves at all. The Sun's clockwise motion is an apparent motion caused by the rotation of the Earth. The counterclockwise rotation of the Earth in the Sun's light causes the shadow of the gnomon to move clockwise. As the Sun appears to move higher above the horizon before solar noon, the shadow grows shorter and shorter.

3. In the summer the shadows are shorter, and in the winter the shadows are longer. In the morning your shadow will point west and in the afternoon it will point east. If your shadow is long, it is near sunrise or sunset. Your shadow is shortest around noon.

4. If the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, then the Earth should rotate in the opposite direction from west to east (anti-clockwise). Earth's spin (or rotation) on its axis. Earth rotates or spins toward the east, and that's why the Sun, Moon, planets, and stars all rise in the east and make their way westward across the sky.

Question:
exis [7]

Answer:

She can swing 1.0 m high.

Explanation:

Hi there!

The mechanical energy of Jane (ME) can be calculated by adding her gravitational potential (PE) plus her kinetic energy (KE).

The kinetic energy is calculated as follows:

KE = 1/2 · m · v²

And the potential energy:

PE = m · g · h

Where:

m = mass of Jane.

v = velocity.

g = acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s²).

h = height.

Then:

ME = KE + PE

Initially, Jane is running on the surface on which we assume that the gravitational potential energy of Jane is zero (the height is zero). Then:

ME = KE + PE      (PE = 0)

ME = KE

ME = 1/2 · m · (4.5 m/s)²

ME = m · 10.125 m²/s²

When Jane reaches the maximum height, its velocity is zero (all the kinetic energy was converted into potential energy). Then, the mechanical energy will be:

ME = KE + PE      (KE = 0)

ME = PE

ME = m · 9.8 m/s² · h

Then, equallizing both expressions of ME and solving for h:

m · 10.125 m²/s² =  m · 9.8 m/s² · h

10.125 m²/s² / 9.8 m/s²  = h

h = 1.0 m

She can swing 1.0 m high (if we neglect dissipative forces such as air resistance).
