The third floor of a house is 8m above street level. How much work is needed to move a 136kg refrigerator to the third floor?

Physics

jonny [76]2 years ago
8 0

m = Mass of the refrigerator to be moved to third floor = 136 kg

g = Acceleration due to gravity by earth on the refrigerator being moved = 9.8 m/s²

h = Height to which the refrigerator is moved  = 8 m

W = Work done in lifting the object

Work done in lifting the object is same as the gravitational potential energy gained by the refrigerator. hence

Work done = Gravitation potential energy of refrigerator

W = m g h

inserting the values

W = (136) (9.8) (8)

W = 10662.4 J

IrinaK [193]
The kinetic energy K = 0.5 * m * v² must be equal to the potential energy U = m * g * h.

m mass
v velocity
h height
g = 9.81m/s²

The mass m cancels out:
0.5 * v² = g * h
Solve for height h and transform to distance traveled.
(sin (4°) = height / distance)

Suppose the U.S. national debt is about $14 trillion. If payments were made at the rate of $3,500 per second, how many years wou
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

It will take 126.84 years to pay off the debt

Explanation:

Total debt = $14,000,000,000,000.00

Paid $3,500 per second

Number of seconds to pay off the debt will be:

14 ×10^12 /3500

Number of seconds = 4× 10^9 seconds

Converting seconds to year:

I second = 3.171 ×10^-8 calendar year

Therefore, number of years it will take to pay off $14 Trillion =( 4 ×10^9 ) × ( 3.171 × 10^-8)

Number of years = 126.84 years

A jet plane is launched from a catapult on an aircraft carrier. In 2.0 s it reaches a speed of 42 m/s at the end of the catapult
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

time taken t=2\ s

Speed acquired in 2 sec v=42\ m/s

Here initial velocity is zero u=0

acceleration is the rate of change of velocity in a given time

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

a=\frac{42-0}{2}=21\ m/s^2

Distance travel in this time

s=ut+0.5at^2

where  

s=displacement

u=initial velocity

a=acceleration

t=time

s=0+\0.5\times 21\times (2)^2

s=42\ m

so Jet Plane travels a distance of 42 m in 2 s
