Answer:
31.905 ft/s²
Explanation:
Given that
Mass of the pilot, m = 120 lb
Weight of the pilot, w = 119 lbf
Acceleration due to gravity, g = 32.05 ft/s²
Local acceleration of gravity of found by using the relation
Weight in lbf = Mass in lb * (local acceleration/32.174 lbft/s²)
119 = 120 * a/32. 174
119 * 32.174 = 120a
a = 3828.706 / 120
a = 31.905 ft/s²
Therefore, the local acceleration due to gravity at that elevation is 31.905 ft/s²
It's a combination of all those things. probably because we are taught from an early age to write in an academic fashion, giving balanced arguments and a conclusion. When speaking from the heart, there is no opposing argument nor is there a conclusion, just emotion.
Answer:
(a) work required to lift the object is 1029 J
(b) the gravitational potential energy gained by this object is 1029 J
Explanation:
Given;
mass of the object, m = 35 kg
height through which the object was lifted, h = 3 m
(a) work required to lift the object
W = F x d
W = (mg) x h
W = 35 x 9.8 x 3
W = 1029 J
(b) the gravitational potential energy gained by this object is calculated as;
ΔP.E = Pf - Pi
where;
Pi is the initial gravitational potential energy, at initial height (hi = 0)
ΔP.E = (35 x 9.8 x 3) - (35 x 9.8 x 0)
ΔP.E = 1029 J
