If only 10 pounds is required to lift a 500-lb block, how much chain must be played out to lift the engine 3.0 inches?

Answer:

150 inches (12.5 ft)

Explanation:

The work done to lift the 500 pound block 3 inches should be the same as that to lift the 10 pond object a given distance.

The following is the equation one needs to solve:

10 \,lb\,* \,x\,=\,500\,lb\,*\,3\,in\\10 \,lb\,* \,x\,=\,1500\,lb\,in\\

therefore solving for the distance "x" gives as the answer (in inches):

10 \,lb\,* \,x\,=\,1500\,lb\,in\\x\,=\,\frac{1500\,lb\,in}{10\,lb} \\\\x\,=150\,in

which can also be given in feet as: 12.5 ft

A uranium nucleus is traveling at 0.94 c in the positive direction relative to the laboratory when it suddenly splits into two p
Anettt [7]

Answer:

A   u = 0.36c      B u = 0.961c

Explanation:

In special relativity the transformation of velocities is carried out using the Lorentz equations, if the movement in the x direction remains

     u ’= (u-v) / (1- uv / c²)

Where u’ is the speed with respect to the mobile system, in this case the initial nucleus of uranium, u the speed with respect to the fixed system (the observer in the laboratory) and v the speed of the mobile system with respect to the laboratory

The data give is u ’= 0.43c and the initial core velocity v = 0.94c

Let's clear the speed with respect to the observer (u)

      u’ (1- u v / c²) = u -v

      u + u ’uv / c² = v - u’

      u (1 + u ’v / c²) = v - u’

      u = (v-u ’) / (1+ u’ v / c²)

Let's calculate

      u = (0.94 c - 0.43c) / (1+ 0.43c 0.94 c / c²)

      u = 0.51c / (1 + 0.4042)

      u = 0.36c

We repeat the calculation for the other piece

In this case u ’= - 0.35c

We calculate

       u = (0.94c + 0.35c) / (1 - 0.35c 0.94c / c²)

       u = 1.29c / (1- 0.329)

       u = 0.961c

if a sports car can go from 0 to 60 mph in 3.8 seconds, what would be it's final speed after 6 seconds if it's starting speed wa
erma4kov [3.2K]
Verrrrrry interesting !

Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

The car's acceleration is  (60 mph) / (3.8 sec)  = (60/3.8)  mile/hr-sec .

Final speed = (original speed)  +  (acceleration · time)

                 = (30 mi/hr)  +  (60/3.8  mi/hr-sec)·(6 sec)

                 = (30)mi/hr  +  (360 / 3.8)mi/hr

                 =      124.7 mph .

Calculate the acceleration of a student riding his bicycle in a straight line that speeds up from 4 m/s to 6 m/s in 5 seconds.
solong [7]
Acceleration is equal to velocity final minus velocity initial divided by time. 6m/s minus 4m/s divided by 5 seconds is 0.4m/s^2.
