Because we wish to have a sustainable future. The current dependence on fossil fuel means that there will be a point when humans have no fuel to use because fossil fuels are a non-renewable resource.

A forklift raises a 72-kg crate onto a shelf 3.6 meters above the floor. How much gravitational potential energy does the crate
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

<h2>2540.16 J</h2>

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy of a body can be found by using the formula

GPE = mgh

where

m is the mass

h is the height

g is the acceleration due to gravity which is 9.8 m/s²

From the question we have

GPE = 72 × 9.8 × 3.6 = 2540.16

We have the final answer as

<h3>2540.16 J</h3>

Hope this helps you

A car traveling at 43 km/h hits a bridge abutment. A passenger in the car moves forward a distance of 54 cm (with respect to the
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

F = -6472.9 N

F= -6.47 kN

Explanation:

First of all you have to convert the data to SI  units

so for the velocity you have :

Vi = 43km/h *(1000m/1km)*(1h/3600s)  ---> using conversion factors

Vi= 11.9444 m/s

dX : distance the passanger moves

dX = 54cm*(1m/100cm)   -->  using conversion factors

dX = 0.54 m

Now to calculate the force we are going to use the sum of focers equals to mass for acceleration:

Sum F = m*a

We have to find a so we are going to use the velocity's formula as follows to solve a:

Vf ^2 = Vi^2 +2*a*dX

Vf=0  --> the passenger does not move after the airbag inflates.

a= -(Vi^2)/(2*dX)

you solve de acceleration with the data you hae and you will find

a = -132.1 m/ s^2

Now you can solve the Sum F equation

Sum F = 49 Kg * (-132.1 m/s^2)

F = -6472.9 N

F= -6.47 kN

A ball is tied to a 1.3 m string and whirled in a circular motion with a force of 220 N. If its speed is 6 m/s, (a) what is it c
Studentka2010 [4]

The centripetal acceleration is 27.692 kg m / s^2.

The mass of the ball is 7.94 kg.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • The curved path of an object experience a force known as centripetal force. Its direction is always pointing to the motion of the body towards the center of curvature of the path.

            centripetal force Fc = (mass * square of velocity) / radius

where m represents mass in kg

          v represents  velocity

          r represents radius in a meter.

  • The acceleration experienced in uniform circular motion is called as centripetal acceleration.It always points toward the center of rotation and is perpendicular to the linear velocity.
  •                     centripetal acceleration = v^2 / r

                                                             = (6 * 6) / 1.3

                                                             = 27.692 kg m / s^2.

 The mass of the ball is found by using the centripetal force formula,

  •                               centripetal force Fc = m v^2 / r

                                                      m = (F * r) / v^2

                                                          =  (220 * 1.3) / 36

                           mass of the ball  m = 7.94 kg.
