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

Physics

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.

Since workdone is Force times distance Given force-1000n Distance-150 Wd-1000 times 150 Wd-150000n.

Noise-canceling headphones are an application of destructive interference. Each side of the headphones uses a microphone to pick
exis [7]
The question for this problem would be the minimum headphone delay, in ms, that will cancel this noise.
The 200 Hz. period = (1/200) = 0.005 sec. It will need to be delayed by 1/2, so 0.005/2, that is = 0.0025 sec. So converting sec to ms, will give us the delay of:Delay = 2.5 ms.

What does it mean for water to have a high heat capacity
Aliun [14]

Answer:

Its heat capacity is higher than that of any other liquid or solid, its specific heat being 1 cal / g, this means that to raise the temperature of 1 g of water by 1 ° C it is necessary to provide an amount of heat equal to a calorie . Therefore, the heat capacity of 1 g of water is equal to 1 cal / K.

Explanation:

The water has a very high heat capacity, a large amount of heat is necessary to raise its temperature 1.0 ° K. For biological systems this is very important because the cellular temperature is modified very little in response to metabolism. In the same way, aquatic organisms, if water did not possess that quality, would be very affected or would not exist.

This means that a body of water can absorb or release large amounts of heat, with little temperature change, which has a great influence on the weather (large bodies of water in the oceans take longer to heat and cool than the ground land). Its latent heats of vaporization and fusion (540 and 80 cal / g, respectively) are also exceptionally high.

The speed of sound at temperature of________in the air is 360m/s.​
Aleks04 [339]

Vo= 331+0.6T

360=331+0.6T

360-331=0.6T

29=0.6T

0.6T/29

T=6/290 so change it to simplest form and us formulas good luck

The local high school is installing new bleachers at the stadium and must also add handrails to meet code. The students know the
Advocard [28]

Answer:

The handrails must be approximately 10.63 meters long

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The height of the bleachers, h = 8 m

The depth of the bleachers, d = 7 m

The length of the hand rails to go along the bleachers from bottom to top is given by Pythagoras' Theorem as follows;

The length of the hand rail = √(d² + h²)

∴ The length of the hand rail = √(7² + 8²) = √113 ≈ 10.63

In order for the handrails to go along the bleachers from top to bottom, they must be approximately 10.63 meters long.
