After the box comes to rest at position x1, a person starts pushing the box, giving it a speed v1. when the box reaches position

x2 (where x2>x1), how much work wp has the person done on the box? assume that the box reaches x2 after the person has accelerated it from rest to speed v1. express the work in terms of m, v0, x1, x2, and v1.

As we know by work energy theorem

total work done = change in kinetic energy

so here we can say that wok done on the box will be equal to the change in kinetic energy of the system

W_p = KE_f - KE_i

initial the box is at rest at position x = x1

so initial kinetic energy will be ZERO

at final position x = x2 final kinetic energy is given as

KE_f = \frac{1}{2}mv_1^2

now work done is given as

W_p = \frac{1}{2}mv_1^2 - 0

so we can say

W_p = \frac{1}{2}mv_1^2

so above is the work done on the box to slide it from x1 to x2

Two objects are dropped from rest from the same height. Object A falls through a distance Da and during a time t, and object B f
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

Da=(1/4)Db

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

When s = Da, t = t

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow Da=0\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times a\times t^2\\\Rightarrow Da=\frac{1}{2}at^2

When s = Db, t = 2t

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow Da=0\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times a\times (2t)^2\\\Rightarrow Db=\frac{1}{2}a4t^2

Dividing the two equations

\frac{Da}{Db}=\frac{\frac{1}{2}at^2}{\frac{1}{2}a4t^2}=\frac{1}{4}\\\Rightarrow \frac{Da}{Db}=\frac{1}{4}\\\Rightarrow Da=\frac{1}{4}Db

Hence, Da=(1/4)Db

The density is 1.5 g/cm^3. the mass is 1500. what is the volume
Naddik [55]
The density of an object can be calculated using the formula Density = Mass/Volume. In this case however we are searching for the volume and must rearrange the formula so that we are solving for the volume. If you multiply both sides by volume and then divide both sides by mass you end up with the equation Volume = Mass/Density.

Volume = 1500g/1.5g/cm^3
Volume = 1000 cm^3

If your car tachometer says your engine is moving at 1200 RPM, then what is it's angular velocity in Rad/sec?
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

125.66 R/s

Explanation:

First    1200  r / min = 20 r/sec

20 r/s  *  2pi Radians / r = 40 pi Radians / sec = 125.66 R/s
