Answer: 300 m

Explanation:

A body possesses gravitational potential energy due to virtue of its height above the surface. It is measured in Joules. it is given by:

G.P.E = m g h

where, m is the mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity and h is the height.

Given: m = 85 kg

G.P.E = 250,000 J

g = 9.8 m/s²

⇒ h = (G.P.E}/ mg

⇒h = (250,000) / ( 85 × 9.8) = 300 m.

The climber climbed 300 m high.

A 4.3 kg steel ball and 6.5 m cord of negligible mass make up a simple pendulum that can pivot without friction about the point
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer

given,

mass of steel ball, M = 4.3 kg

length of the chord, L = 6.5 m

mass of the block, m = 4.3 Kg

coefficient of friction, μ = 0.9

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.81 m/s²

here the potential energy of the bob is converted into kinetic energy

m g L = \dfrac{1}{2} mv^2

v= \sqrt{2gL}

v= \sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 6.5}

      v = 11.29 m/s

As the collision is elastic the velocity of the block is same as that of bob.

now,

work done by the friction force = kinetic energy of the block

f . d = \dfrac{1}{2} mv^2

\mu m g. d = \dfrac{1}{2} mv^2

d=\dfrac{v^2}{2\mu g}

d=\dfrac{11.29^2}{2\times 0.9 \times 9.8}

    d = 7.23 m

the distance traveled by the block will be equal to 7.23 m.

Do you have a lawn mower engine running for 20 minutes does 4,560, 000 J of work. What is the power output of the engine?
alekssr [168]

Answer:

P = 3800 W

Explanation:

Power is equal to energy divide by time P = E/t

plug in 4560000 J for energy

convert 20 minutes to seconds

20 * 60 = 1200 seconds

plug in 1200 seconds for time

P = 4560000/1200

P = 3800 W
