Answer: 1339.5 joules

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy, GPE is the energy possessed by the jumper as he moves against gravity.

Thus, GPE = Mass m x Acceleration due to gravity g x Height h

Since Mass = 67kg

g = 9.8m/s^2

h = 2.04 metres

Thus, GPE = 67kg x 9.8m/s^2 x 2.04m

GPE = 1339.5 joules

Thus, the gravitational potential energy at the highest point is 1339.5 joules

Water enters a typical garden hose of diameter 0.016 m with a velocity of 3 m/s. Calculate the exit velocity of water from the g
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

v₂ = 306.12 m/s

Explanation:

We know that the volume flow rate of the water or any in-compressible liquid remains constant throughout motion. Therefore, from continuity equation, we know that:

A₁v₁ = A₂v₂

where,

A₁ = Area of entrance pipe = πd₁²/4 = π(0.016 m)²/4 = 0.0002 m²

v₁ = entrance velocity = 3 m/s

A₂ = Area of nozzle = πd₂²/4 = π(0.005 m)²/4 = 0.0000196 m²

v₂ = exit velocity = ?

Therefore,

(0.0002 m²)(3 m/s) = (0.0000196 m²)v₂

v₂ = (0.006 m³/s)/(0.0000196 m²)

<u>v₂ = 306.12 m/s</u>

All of the following are true statements regarding line-voltage thermostats and control wiring except a. An electrician's licens
n200080 [17]

Answer:

c. Line - voltage thermostats and controls are not as sensitive as low - voltage thermostats.

Explanation:

Line voltage thermostat is a regulator which senses the temperature and maintains it to keep the desired level of the voltage. The license in required for the electricians to work on the voltage control wirings. There is technical aspects which an electrician must understand before working on the circuits and voltage lines.

A leaky 10-kg bucket is lifted from the ground to a height of 11 m at a constant speed with a rope that weighs 0.9 kg/m. Initial
nalin [4]

Answer:

the work done to lift the bucket = 3491 Joules

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of bucket = 10kg

distance the bucket is lifted = height = 11m

Weight of rope= 0.9kg/m

g= 9.8m/s²

initial mass of water = 33kg

x = height in meters above the ground

Let W = work

Using riemann sum:

the work done to lift the bucket =∑(W done by bucket, W done by rope and W done by water)

= \int\limits^a_b {(Mass of Bucket + Mass of Rope + Mass of water)*g*d} \, dx

Work done in lifting the bucket (W) = force × distance

Force (F) = mass × acceleration due to gravity

Force = 9.8 * 10 = 98N

W done by bucket = 98×11 = 1078 Joules

Work done to lift the rope:

At Height of x meters (0≤x≤11)

Mass of rope = weight of rope × change in distance

= 0.8kg/m × (11-x)m

W done = integral of (mass×g ×distance) with upper 11 and lower limit 0

W done = \int\limits^1 _0 {9.8*0.8(11-x)} \, dx

Note : upper limit is 11 not 1, problem with math editor

W done = 7.84 (11x-x²/2)upper limit 11 to lower limit 0

W done = 7.84 [(11×11-(11²/2)) - (11×0-(0²/2))]

=7.84(60.5 -0) = 474.32 Joules

Work done in lifting the water

At Height of x meters (0≤x≤11)

Rate of water leakage = 36kg ÷ 11m = \frac{36}{11}kg/m

Mass of rope = weight of rope × change in distance

= \frac{36}{11}kg/m × (11-x)m =  3.27kg/m × (11-x)m

W done = integral of (mass×g ×distance) with upper 11 and lower limit 0

W done = \int\limits^1 _0 {9.8*3.27(11-x)} \, dx

Note : upper limit is 11 not 1, problem with math editor

W done = 32.046 (11x-x²/2)upper limit 11 to lower limit 0

W done = 32.046 [(11×11-(11²/2)) - (11×0-(0²/2))]

= 32.046(60.5 -0) = 1938.783 Joules

the work done to lift the bucket =W done by bucket+ W done by rope +W done by water)

the work done to lift the bucket = 1078 +474.32+1938.783 = 3491.103

the work done to lift the bucket = 3491 Joules
