Answer:

0.5m(v1)²

Explanation:

We know that work done on an object is equal to the change in the kinetic energy of that object. Hence,

W. D = ΔK. E.

ΔK. E. = K. E.(final) - K. E.(initial)

Initial Kinetic energy, K. E.(initial), is:

K. E.(initial) = 0 (the box was at West)

Final K. E., K. E.(final) is:

K. E.(final) = 0.5*m*(v1)²

Hence, work done on the box will be:

W. D. = 0.5m(v1)² - 0

W. D. = 0.5m(v1)²

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
aliya0001 [1]

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

Why are theories excepted as true
Airida [17]

Answer:

A theory not only explains known facts; it also allows scientists to make predictions of what they should observe if a theory is true. Scientific theories are testable. New evidence should be compatible with a theory. If it isn't, the theory is refined or rejected.

how much force would be required to produce 88 j of work when pushing a box 1.1meters at an angle of 10 degrees?
ycow [4]

Answer:81.235N

Explanation:

Work=88J

theta=10°

distance=1.1 meters

work=force x cos(theta) x distance

88=force x cos10 x 1.1 cos10=0.9848

88=force x 0.9848 x 1.1

88=force x 1.08328

Divide both sides by 1.08328

88/1.08328=(force x 1.08328)/1.08328

81.235=force

Force=81.235

Consider a rigid body that rotates but whose center of mass is at rest. a. Trueb. false: the rotational kinetic energy of the en
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

Explanation:

True

It is correct as the total rotational energy is the sum of transnational kinetic energy of each small piece of the object.

Consider a rigid body made of small particles each of mass dm have same angular velocity ω and the radius of the rotational path is r.

The velocity of each particle is v = r ω

So, the kinetic energy of each particle is

dK = 0.5 dm x v² = 0.5 x dm x r² x ω²

The total kinetic energy

K = 0.5 x I ω²

where, I is the moment of inertia

You are a visitor aboard the New International Space Station, which is in a circular orbit around the Earth with an orbital spee
Alchen [17]

Answer:

The minimum total speed is 11.2km/s

Explanation:

We are been asked to find the escape velocity.

Escape velocity is defined as the minimum initial velocity that will take a body(projectile)away above the surface of a planet(earth) when it's projected vertically upwards.

The formula to calculate the escape velocity is Ve = √2gR

For the earth g = 9.8m/s2 , R = 6.4*10^6

Substituting into the equation Ve = √2*9.8*6.4*10^6 = 11.2*10^3m/s

=11.2km/s
