In a displacement versus time graph, what does the slope of a line at any point indicate?
Rom4ik [11]

In a displacement versus time graph, the slope of the line at any point on the graph indicates the <em>magnitude of velocity</em>.  

(It can't indicate velocity completely, because the graph shows nothing about the direction of the motion.)

A child with a weight of 230 N swings on a playground swing attached to 1.90 m long chains. What is the gravitational potential
nlexa [21]

Answer:

437 J

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Weight of child, W = 230 N

Height of swing, h = 1.9 m

Gravitational Potential Energy is given as:

P. E. = m*g*h = W*h

m = mass

h = height above the ground

W = weight

P. E. = 230 * 1.9

P. E. = 437 J

How long would it take a 4,560 watt motor to raise a 166 kg piano to an apartment window
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

Explanation:

We need the power equation here:

P = W/t where W is work and is defined as

W = F*displacement.

Force is a measure in Newtons, which is also weight. We have the mass of the piano, but we need to find the weight:

w = mg so

w = 166(9.8) so

w = 1600N, rounded to the correct number of sig dig. We use that now in the power equation:

4560=\frac{(1600)(15)}{t} and isolating the unknown:

t=\frac{(1600)(15)}{4560} so

t = 5.3 seconds

Zach, whose mass is 90 kg , is in an elevator descending at 12 m/s . the elevator takes 3.0 s to brake to a stop at the first fl
sweet-ann [11.9K]
Finding out the acceleration 12/3 = 4m/s^2
thus it is descending so the actual acceleration would be 9.8-4 = 5.8 m/s^2
the weight will be 90*5.8 = 522 N
522/9.8 = 53.2 kg
