Answer:

Work done required is 3567.2 J

Explanation:

Given :

Length of chain, l = 72 m

Mass of chain, M = 29 kg

Linear mass density of chain, μ = \frac{Mass\ of\ chain }{Length\ of\ chain} = \frac{29}{72}  = 0.40 kg/m

Let x be the length of the chain which lift to the top of the building.

Work done required to lift the chain is equal to the potential energy of the chain.

W = ∫μg (72 - x ) dx

Here g is acceleration due to gravity.

The limit of integration is from 0 to 14.

W = μg ( 72x - x²/2)

Substitute 0.40 kg/m for μ, 9.8 m/s² for g and 14 m for x in the above equation.

W = 0.40\times9.8\times(72\times14\ - \frac{14^{2} }{2})

W = 3567.2 J

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the forward displacement is taken is positive, and the backward displacement is taken is negative.

first displacement = + 18 cm

second displacement = - 6 cm

third displacement = - 12 cm

net displacement = 18 - 12 - 6 = 0 cm

When we give the speed of a car what frame of reference are we using?
Rus_ich [418]

Frame of reference, in simplest terms, describes the state of motion of the observer. The frame of reference may also be described by using a set of coordinates, time and motion. We formulate all our equations and solve them using the frame of reference.
