A cheerleader lifts his 59.6 kg partner straight up off the ground a distance of 0.749 m before

Physics

Airida [17]3 years ago
5 0

m = mass of the partner which the cheerleader lifts = 59.6 kg

h = height to which the partner is lifted by the cheerleader = 0.749 m

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

work done by the cheerleader in lifting the partner is same as the potential energy gained by the partner.

W = work done by the cheerleader in lifting the partner

PE = potential energy gained

so  W = PE

potential energy is given as

PE = mgh

hence

W = mgh

inserting the values in the above formula

W = 59.6 x 9.8 x 0.749

W = 437.5 J

this is the work done in lifting the partner once.

the cheerleader does this 30 times , hence the total work done is given as

W' = 30 W

W' = 30 x 437.5

W' = 13125 J

How much pressure is applied to the ground
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

Pressure applied by the man= 285103.125 Pa  or 41.35 lb/in^{2}

Explanation:

Pressure is defined as the perpendicular force applied per unit area.

i.e.  Pressure=\frac{Force}{Area}

Now, Force= mg

where, m = mass of the body(man) = 93 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity of Earth = 9.81 m/{s^{2}}

Area covered is equal to the area of both stilts(a man generally stands on two feet)

therefore Area=2(0.04)^{2} m^{2}

and putting in the values, we get,

Pressure=\frac{93\times9.81}{2\times(0.04)^{2}}Nm^{-2}=285103.125Nm^{-2}

Now we need to convert to our required units:

1Nm^{-2}=1Pa\\1Pa=0.000145038lb/in^{2}

(We can get the above result by individually converting kg to lb and meters to inches respectively)

Using the above relations we get,

Pressure=285103.125Pa=0.000145038\times285103.125lb/in^{2}=41.35lb/in^{2}

What is the difference between weight and mass?
Arlecino [84]

Mass is the amount of matter in a material while weight is a measure of how the force of gravity acts upon the mass.

Motion is always compared to something called
HACTEHA [7]

Movement can be without change in positions. As only a part of it can be made to move. If you move there is a motion and if there is a motion there is a movement so they're same thing. In motion whole of body moves, but in movements only the parts of body moves.
