<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The answer is the first option, 100 ft-lbs.

<h2>Why?</h2>

To calculate the work done by an object over a distance, we need to multiply the applied force by the amount of movement (distance).

So, to calculate the work that Gary needs to do to move the chair, we need to use the following equation:

Work=Force*Distance

We are given,

Force=20lb\\Distance=5ft

Work=F*D\\Work=(20lb)*(5ft)=100ft-lbs

Hence, the answer is the first option, 100 ft-lbs.

Have a nice day!

A 1.0-kg ball is attached to the end of a 2.5-m string to form a pendulum. This pendulum is released from rest with the string h
hram777 [196]

Answer:

v_{2}=3.5 m/s

Explanation:

Using the conservation of energy we have:

\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}=mgh

Let's solve it for v:

v=\sqrt{2gh}

So the speed at the lowest point is v=7 m/s

Now, using the conservation of momentum we have:

m_{1}v_{1}=m_{2}v_{2}

v_{2}=\frac{1*7}{2}

Therefore the speed of the block after the collision is v_{2}=3.5 m/s

I hope it helps you!

The diameter of a copper atom is approximately 2.28e-10 m. The massof one mole of copper is 64 grams. Assume that the atoms area
KIM [24]

1) Mass of one copper atom: 1.063\cdot 10^{-22} kg

2) There are 9.33\cdot 10^{24} atoms in the cube

3) Mass of the cubical block: 992 kg

Explanation:

1)

We are told here that the mass of one mole of copper is

M=64 g

for

n=1 mol (number of moles)

We also know that the number of atoms inside 1 mole of substance is equal to Avogadro number:

N_A = 6.022\cdot 10^{23}

This means that N_A atoms of copper have a mass of M = 64 g. Therefore, we can find the mass of one copper atom by dividing the total mass by the avogadro number:

m=\frac{M}{N_A}=\frac{64}{6.022\cdot 10^{23}}=1.063\cdot 10^{-22} kg

2)

We are told that the diameter of a copper atom is

d=2.28\cdot 10^{-10} m

We can assume that the atoms are arranged in a cube, and that they are all attached to each other; so the side of the cube can be written as size of one atom multiplied by the number of atom per side:

L=Nd

where

N is the number of atoms (rows) in one side of the cube

Since the side of the cube is

L = 4.8 cm = 0.048 m

We find N:

N=\frac{L}{d}=\frac{0.048}{2.28\cdot 10^{-10}}=2.11\cdot 10^8

This is the number of atom rows per side; therefore, the total number of atoms in the cube is

N^3=(2.11\cdot 10^8)^3=9.33\cdot 10^{24}

3)

The total mass of the cubical block of copper will be given by the mass of one atom of copper multiplied by the total number of atoms, so:

M= N^3 m

where:

N^3 = 9.33\cdot 10^{24} is the number of atoms in the cube

m=1.063\cdot 10^{-22} kg is the mass of one atom

Therefore, substituting, we find:

M=(9.33\cdot 10^{24})(1.063\cdot 10^{-22})=992 kg

So, the mass of the cubical block is 992 kg.

The potential energy stored in the compressed spring of a dart gun, with a spring constant of 32.50 N/m, is 0.640 J. Find by how
liraira [26]

Answer:

A

   x = 0.198456 \ m

B

    h  =  1.3061 \  m

C

 v =  5.06 \  m/s

D

  d = 4.0273 \  m

Explanation:

Considering the first question

From the question we are told that

   The spring constant is  k  =  32.50 N/m

    The potential energy is  PE  =  0.640 \ J

Generally the potential  energy stored in spring  is mathematically represented as   PE  =  \frac{1}{2}  *  k  *  x^2

=>    0.640=  \frac{1}{2}  * 32.50  *  x^2  

=>    x = \sqrt{0.03938}  

=>    x = 0.198456 \ m  

Considering the second question

 From the question we are told that

   The mass of the dart is  m =  0.050 kg

Generally from the law of energy conservation

         PE =  mgh

=>       0.640   =  0.050 *  9.8  *  h

=>      h  =  1.3061 \  m

Considering the third  question

   The height at which the dart was fired horizontally is  H  =   3.90\  m

Generally  from the law of energy conservation

         PE = KE

Here  KE is kinetic energy of the dart which is mathematical represented as

     KE  =  \frac{1}{2}  *  mv^2

=>      0.640 =  \frac{1}{2}  * 0.050 *  v^2

=>       v^2 = 25.6

=>       v =  5.06 \  m/s

Considering the fourth question

Generally the total time of flight of the dart is mathematically represented as

       t  =  \frac{ 2 *  H }{g}

=>     t  =  \frac{ 2 * 3.90 }{9.8 }

=>     t  =  0.7959 \ s

Generally the  horizontal distance from the equilibrium position to the ground is  mathematically represented as

       d =  v  *   t

=>     d = 5.06  *   0.7959

=>     d = 4.0273 \  m
