How much work is done by a crane that lowers 1000N of material a distance of 150

The crane does NO work.

Work = (force) x (distance)

         = (1,000 N) x (150 meters ?)  =  150,000 joules

But the work is in the direction of the force, and it isn't the crane
pushing the material down.  It's gravity.

Gravity is doing the work. 

If the material was being lowered by a cable wrapped around the shaft
of an electric generator, then you could use the work done by gravity to
generate some electrical energy, and then sell the energy.

Or, if the "material" happened to be water, you could let gravity lower it
through a turbine or a water wheel, and use the work done by gravity to
grind wheat.

Yes, the crane may be raising a sweat, working against gravity.  The
purpose is only to prevent gravity from doing the work too fast.

Suppose the ring rotates once every 4.30 ss . If a rider's mass is 58.0 kgkg , with how much force does the ring push on her at
Stells [14]

Answer:

422.36 N

Explanation:

given,

time of rotation = 4.30 s

T = 4.30 s

Assuming the diameter of the ring equal to 16 m

radius, R = 8 m

v = \dfrac{2\pi R}{T}

v = \dfrac{2\pi\times 8}{4.30}

  v = 11.69 m/s

now, Force does the ring push on her at the top

- N - m g = \dfrac{-mv^2}{R}

N + m g = \dfrac{mv^2}{R}

N = \dfrac{mv^2}{R}- m g

N = m(\dfrac{v^2}{R}- g)

N = 58\times (\dfrac{11.69^2}{8}- 9.8)

N = 422.36 N

The force exerted by the ring to push her is equal to 422.36 N.

On the way to school, the bus speeds up from 20 m/s to 36 m/s in 4 seconds. What distance
Tresset [83]
Answer B. 112 m



Step-by-Step Explanation

initial velocity u = 20 m /s
final velocity v = 36 m /s
time taken t = 4 s
acceleration = (v - U) / t
= (36 - 20) / 4
a=4m/s2
from the formula
7-u2=2as , sis distance covered
putting the values
362-202=2×4×s
1296 - 400 = 8 x S
S= 112 m

When you are on a huge water slide what forces are there? when will you experience a net force?
Pani-rosa [81]
When you are on a huge water slide, the force present as you slide is the gravitational force. It is because the gravity enables you to slide down the water slide. The net force is the overall forces of the object, so as you slide the water slide, you may experience the net force once you slide down with the gravity and water sliding you down.
