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

A solid object has a mass of 104 kg and a volume of 1,278 m3. What is its density? 0.081 kg/m3 12.29 g/cm3 132912.00 g/cm3 canno
REY [17]
The density is 81.4 g/m3. Before you start plugging numbers into the density formula (D=M/V), you should convert 104 kg to grams, which ends up being 104,000 grams. Then you can plug in the 104,000 grams and 1,278 m3 into the formula. When you divide the mass by the volume, you get a really long decimal, which you can round to 81.4 g/m3, or whatever place your teacher wants you to round to.

a person when asked to speak up,increases her sound level from 30dB to 60dB.The amount of power per unit area increased by? a)30
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

d) 1000 times

Explanation:

As we know that difference of sound level is given as

L_2 - L_1 = 10 Log \frac{I_2}{I_1}

so here we need to find the ratio of two intensity

it is given as

Log\frac{I_2}{I_1} = \frac{(L_2- L_1)}{10}

Log\frac{I_2}{I_1} = \frac{60 - 30}{10}

Log\frac{I_2}{I_1} = 3

now we have

\frac{I_2}{I_1} = 10^3

so it is

d) 1000 times

Star #1 is approaching the Earth with speed v. Star #2 is receding from the Earth with the same speed v. Measurements of the sam
leva [86]

Answer:

b. Both stars will have the same shift.

Explanation:

It's a very simple problem to solve. Star 1 is approaching toward Earth with a speed v, so let's assume that the change in Doppler Shift is +F and Star 2 is moving away so the change in Doppler shift is -F. But it's time to notice the speed of both stars and that is same but only directions are different. speed is the main factor here. The magnitude of both shifts is F as we can see and + and - are showing there direction of motion. So, because of same amount of speed, both stars will have same shift magnitude. (Just the directions are different)

Net force of 8.0 N acts on an 18 kg body for one minute. Determine the impulse due to the force.
boyakko [2]

Answer:

p = FΔt = 8.0 N(60 s) = 480 N•s

Explanation:

not asked for, but in that time a frictionless 18 kg mass on a horizontal surface will have change velocity by 480/18 = 26.7 m/s.

An impulse results in a change of momentum.
