Answer:
h = 2.49 [m]
Explanation:
In order to solve this problem we must use the definition of potential energy, which tells us that energy is equal to the product of mass by gravity by height.
The potential energy can be calculated by means of this equation:
Ep = m*g*h
where:
Ep = potential energy = 980 [J]
m = mass = 40 [kg]
g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s^2]
h = elevation [m]
Now replacing:
980 = 40*9.81*h
h = 2.49 [m]
In one of the most amazing coincidences in all of science,
the part of the electromagnetic spectrum that's visible to the
human eye is called "visible light".
Visible light is not 'divided' into anything. We mention the names
to seven of the colors in visible light. But all of the thousands of
OTHER colors that we can see are in there too, even though we
don't bother to list their names when we buzz through the rainbow
in the third grade.
Answer:
w = 2w₀ the angular velocity of man doubles
Explanation:
In this exercise, releasing the weights reduces the moment of inertia
I= I₀ / 2
Therefore, since the platform system plus man is isolated, the kinetic moment must be conserved
L₀ = L
I₀ w₀ = I w
I₀ w₀ = I₀ / 2 w
w = 2w₀
therefore the angular velocity of man doubles
4 km in 30 min then 8 km in 60min or an hr. so 8km/hr.
