The work done will be equal to the potential energy of the piano at the final position

P.E=m.g.h

.consider the plank the hypotenuse of the right triangle formed with the ground
.let x be the angle with the ground=31.6°
.h be the side opposite to the angle x (h is the final height of the piano)
.let L be the length of the plank

sinx=opposite side / hypotenuse
= h/L

then h=L.sinx=3.49×sin31.6°=0.638m

weight w=m.g
m=w/g=3858/10=385.8kg

Consider Gravity g=10m/s2

then P.E.=m.g.h=385.8kg×10×0.638=2461.404J

then Work W=P.E.=2451.404J

Answer:

7055.13 J

Explanation:

<u>Step 1:</u> identify the given parameters

  • Applied force on the piano = 3858N
  • Length of plank = 3.49m
  • angle between the plank and horizontal surface = 31.6⁰

Note: frictional force between the piano and horizontal surface is zero since the plank is frictionless.

<u>Step 2:</u> work done in sliding the piano up the plank = applied force X distance moved by the piano.

The distance moved by the piano is equal to the height above ground when the piano reach top of the plank.

  • make a sketch of right angle triangle
  • length of the plank is the hypotenuse side
  • angle between the hypotenuse and the horizontal is 31.6⁰
  • height of the triangle is the height above ground , let it be the unknown  

Height of the triangle = 3.49m X sine31.6⁰

Height of the triangle = 1.8287m

Recall, height of the triangle is the height above ground which is equal to the distance moved by the piano

work done in sliding the piano up the plank = applied force X distance moved by the piano.

work done in sliding the piano up the plank = 3858N X 1.8287M

                                                                           = 7055.13 J

If a questions says "at what point does the ball stop?" what is it asking for?
Bad White [126]

Explanation:

If a question says "at what point does the ball stop?", it means we need to find the position of the ball when its final velocity is equal to 0. It can be calculated using the equation of kinematics as follows :

d = ut + (1/2) at²

and

v²-u²=2ad

Where, u is initial velocity, v is final velocity, a is acceleration, t is time and d is displacement.

A solid, cylindrical wire conductor has radius R = 30 cm. The wire carries a current of 2.0 A which is uniformly distributed ove
blondinia [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

The point at which magnetic field is to be found lies outside wire so while applying Ampere's law we shall take the whole of current . If B be magnetic field which is circular around conductor.

Applying Ampere's law :-

∫ B dl = μ₀ I      ; I is current passing through ampere's loop

B x 2π x 2.00 = 4 x π x 10⁻⁷ x 2

B = 2 x 10⁻⁷ T.

A 4 kg mass is in free fall. What is the velocity of the mass after 11 seconds
Ksju [112]
Velocity of the mass after 11 seconds = ( value of the gravitational acceleration) * ( time )
velocity = ( 9.81 m / s^2 ) ( 11)
velocity = 107.91 meters per second

Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

b) q large and m small

Explanation:

q is large and m is small

We'll express it as :

q > m

As we know the formula:

F = Eq

And we also know that :

F = Bqv

F = \frac{mv^{2} }{r}

Bqv = \frac{mv^{2} }{r}

or Eq = \frac{mv^{2} }{r}

Assume that you want a velocity selector that will allow particles of velocity v⃗  to pass straight through without deflection while also providing the best possible velocity resolution. You set the electric and magnetic fields to select the velocity v⃗ . To obtain the best possible velocity resolution (the narrowest distribution of velocities of the transmitted particles) you would want to use particles with q large and m small.
