Answer:

Height of sitting = 19.48 m

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy = mgh

Current weight = 539 N

Weight = mg = 539 N

Mass x Acceleration = 539 N

Mass x 9.81 = 539

Mass = 54.94 kg

Gravitational potential energy = mgh = 10500 J

                     54.94 x 9.81 x h = 10500

                                h = 19.48 m

Height of sitting = 19.48 m

In the final situation below, the 8.0 kg box has been launched with a speed of 10.0 m/s across a frictionless surface. Find the
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

the energy of the spring at the start is 400 J.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the box, m = 8.0 kg

final speed of the box, v = 10 m/s

Apply the principle of conservation of energy to determine the energy of the spring at the start;

Final Kinetic energy of the box = initial elastic potential energy of the spring

K.E = Ux

¹/₂mv² = Ux

¹/₂ x 8 x 10² = Ux

400 J = Ux

Therefore, the energy of the spring at the start is 400 J.

A bus is moving at a speed of 150km/hr. Begins to slow at a constant rate of 3.0m/s each second. Find how far it goes before sto
ladessa [460]

Answer:

Distance = 13.9 meters

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Maximum speed = 150 km/hr to meters per seconds = 150 * 1000/3600 = 41.67 m/s

Decelerating speed = 3m/s

To find the distance travelled with this speed;

Distance = maximum speed/decelerating speed

Distance = 41.67/3

Distance = 13.9 meters

Therefore, the bus would travel a distance of 13.9 meters before stopping.

A crate slides down a ramp that makes a 20∘ angle with the ground. to keep the crate from sliding too fast, paige pushes back on
shutvik [7]
The solution is:
Paige's force is (somewhat) against the direction of motion: Work = F * d Where F is the force; andd is the distance
Our f is 64 N and our distance is 20 and -3.6Plugging that in our equation will give us:
= 64N * cos20º * -3.6m = -217 J
