Answer:

the heaviest barbell that could be lifted  is 390.6kg

Explanation:

Hello!

To solve this question you must follow the following steps

1. Find the amount of energy that can transform the body into motion, this is achieved by multiplying the breakfast consumed by the percentage of energy conversion.

W=(103Calories)(0.016)\frac{4186J}{1calorie} =6898.5J

2. We use the equation that defines the work done by a body that has weight when it is lifted, this is defined by the product of mass by gravity by height.

W=mgh

where

W=work=6898.5J

m=mass

g=gravity=9.81m/s^2

h=height=1.8m

now we solve for mass, and use the values.

m=\frac{W}{hg} =\frac{6898.5}{(1.8)(9.81)} =390.6kg

the heaviest barbell that could be lifted  is 390.6kg

In a closed system, a cart with a mass of 1.5 kg is rolling to the right at 1.4 m/s, while another cart of mass 1.0 kg is rollin
bija089 [108]

Answer: The correct option is (c.).

Explanation:

Mass of the cart A= 1.5 kg

Velocity of Cart A = 1.4 m/s towards right

Mass of the cart B = 1.0 kg

Velocity of Cart B = 1.4 m/s towards left

Momentum (P)= Mass × Velocity

P_A=1.5 kg\times 1.4 m/s=2.1 kg m/s

P_B=1.0 kg\times (-1.4m/s)=-1.4 kg m/s

(Negative sign means velocity of the cart is in opposite direction of that of the cart A)

Total Momentum =P_A+P_B=2.10 kg m/s-1.40 kg m/s=0.70 kg m/s

Hence, the correct option is (c.).

For an object starting from rest and accelerating with constant acceleration, distance traveled is proportional to the square of
natali 33 [55]

The problem states that the distance travelled (d) is directly proportional to the square of time (t^2), therefore we can write this in the form of:

d = k t^2

where k is the constant of proportionality in furlongs / s^2

 

<span>Using the 1st condition where d = 2 furlongs, t = 2 s, we calculate for the value of k:</span>

2 = k (2)^2

k = 2 / 4

k = 0.5 furlongs / s^2

The equation becomes:

d = 0.5 t^2

 

Now solving for d when t = 4:

d = 0.5 (4)^2

d = 0.5 * 16

<span>d = 8 furlongs</span>

<span>
</span>

<span>It traveled 8 furlongs for the first 4.0 seconds.</span>
