A fully loaded, slow-moving freight elevator has a cab with a total mass of 1400 kg, which is required to travel upward 37 m in

3.6 min, starting and ending at rest. The elevator's counterweight has a mass of only 930 kg, so the elevator motor must help pull the cab upward. What average power is required of the force the motor exerts on the cab via the cable?

Answer:

789.8 W

Explanation:

mass of the cab = 1400 kg, the counter weight of the elevator = 930 kg

weight of the cab = 1400 × 9.81 where weight = mg and m is mass and g is acceleration due to gravity.

weight of the cab = 13734 N

counter weight of the elevator = 930 × 9.81 = 9123.3 N

the exerted force of the elevator = weight of the cab - counter weight of the elevator = 13734 - 9123.3 = 4610.7 N

Average power by the motor P = F × v = F × distance / time

where v is speed in m/s, and time is in seconds

P = 4610.7 × 37 / ( 3.6 × 60) = 789.80 W

where (3.6 × 60 ) is the time in seconds

The central angle of a circle is 360° or 2π radians.

Therefore
1 radian = (360 degrees)/(2π radians) = 180/π degrees/radian.
4 radians = (4 radians)*(180/π degrees/radian) = 229.18 degrees.

Answer: C.  229.2°

Answer:

<h2>C. <u>0.55 m/s towards the right</u></h2>

Explanation:

Using the conservation of law of momentum which states that the sum of momentum of bodies before collision is equal to the sum of the bodies after collision.

Momentum = Mass (M) * Velocity(V)

BEFORE COLLISION

Momentum of 0.25kg body moving at 1.0m/s = 0.25*1 = 0.25kgm/s

Momentum of 0.15kg body moving at 0.0m/s(body at rest) = 0kgm/s

AFTER COLLISION

Momentum of 0.25kg body moving at x m/s = 0.25* x= 0.25x kgm/s

<u>x is the final velocity of the 0.25kg ball</u>

Momentum of 0.15kg body moving at 0.75m/s(body at rest) =

0.15 * 0.75kgm/s = 0.1125 kgm/s

Using the law of conservation of momentum;

0.25+0 = 0.25x + 0.1125

0.25x = 0.25-0.1125

0.25x = 0.1375

x = 0.1375/0.25

x = 0.55m/s

Since the 0.15 kg ball moves off to the right after collision, the 0.25 kg ball will move at <u>0.55 m/s towards the right</u>

<u></u>

which has a greater kinetic energy, a bowling ball that has a mass of 5kg travelling at 6m/s, or a ship that has a mass of 12000
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:bowling ball has greater kinetic energy

Explanation:

Kinetic energy of bowling ball:

mass=m=5kg

Velocity=v=6m/s

Kinetic energy =ke

Ke=0.5 x m x v x v

Ke=0.5 x 5 x 6 x 6

Ke=90J

Kinetic energy of ship:

mass=m=120000kg

velocity=v=0.02m/s

Ke=0.5 x m x v x v

Ke=0.5 x 120000 x 0.02 x 0.02

Ke=24J

Why does refraction occur?
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

The answer is C.

Explanation:

Let's take a glass of water as an example. Now, shine a flashlight on it. See it bend the light into a rainbow? That is a example of refraction. When the light enters the water, the water actually slows down and changes its direction, causing the light to come out the other side in a different way. Since water is very dense, it can bend the water and make it different.
