Answer: 96.138 J

Explanation:

Ep= mGh (on 1.2 m high)

Ep= 3.5kg*9.81*1.2

Ep1=41.202 J

Ep=mGh (on 4m high)

Ep=3.5*9.81*4

Ep2=137.34J

Ep= Ep2-Ep1

Ep=96.138J

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

$V_1=120 V$

$V_2=13000 V$

$I_{2}=8.5 mA=8.5\times 10^{-3} A$

$1 mA=10^{-3} A$

a.We know that

$\frac{N_2}{N_1}=\frac{V_2}{V_1}$

$\frac{N_2}{N_1}=\frac{13000}{120}=108.3$

b. $P_{avg}=I_2V_2$

$P_{avg}=13000\times 8.5\times 10^{-3}=110.5 Watt$

c. $I_1=\frac{P_{avg}}{V_1}$

$I_1=\frac{110.5}{120}=0.92 A$

Sholpan [36]

Answer:

Explanation:

Stiffness of spring k equal to 4 lb/ft.

Unstretched length of the spring L is equal to 0.5 feet.

Weight of the collar W is 15lb

Radius of curvature of curve guide is 1 feet

length of vertical rod is 1.5 feet

Initial speed of collar when released from rest at A is 0 feet per seconds

use the energy conservation equation

$P_A +K_A=P_B+K_B$

Estimate the potential energy , component as position B as below

$P_A=Wh_1+\frac{1}{2} ks^2_1\\\\=5\times(1.5+1)+\frac{1}{2} \times 4 \times(1.5+1-0.5)^2\\\\=20.5lb.ft$

Estimate the kinetic energy , component as position A as below

$K_A=\frac{1}{2} \frac{W}{g} V^2_1\\\\=\frac{1}{2} \frac{5}{32.2} \times0^2\\\\=0lb.ft$

Estimate the kinetic energy , component as position B as below

$K_A=\frac{1}{2} \frac{W}{g} V^2_2\\\\=\frac{1}{2} \frac{5}{32.2} \times V^2_2\\\\=00777V^2_2$

Substitute 20.5lb- ft for $P_A$

0.5lb-ft for $P_B$

0lb -ft for $K_A$

$0.0777V_2^2 for K_B$

$20.5+0=0.5+0.777V^2_2\\\\V^2_2=257.6\\\\V_2=16.05$

= 16.05ft/sec
