Answer:

Work done, W = 2675.4 J

Given:

mass, m = 70.0 kg

height, H = 3.90 m

Solution:

According to the question, as the person jumps the stairs up, there is an increase in the potential energy of the person which is provided by the work done in climbing the stairs and is given by:

Work done, W = mgH

where

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s^{2}[tex][tex]W = 70.0\times 9.8\times 3.90 = 2675.4 J

Ket [755]

The total electric potential at the center of the square due to the four charges is V  = √2Q/πÈa.

<h3>What do you mean by electric potential? </h3>

The amount of work needed to move a unit charge from a reference point to a specific point against an electric field. It's SI unit is volt.       

V = kq/r

Where V represents electric potential, K is coulomb constant, q  is Charge and r is distance between any  two around charge to the point charge.

Electric potential at O due to four charges is given by,

V = 4KQ/ r

where, r = √2a/2 = a/√2

V = 4k × Q√2/a

V  = √2Q/πÈa

The total electric potential at the center of the square due to the four charges is V  = √2Q/πÈa.

A 13,000 kg helicopter accelerates upward a 0.5 m/s^2 while lifting a 2000 pound car. to the nearest newton, what is the lift fo
Vinil7 [7]

Lift force exerted by the air on the rotors=143244 N

Explanation:

we use Newtons second law

F- (M+m)g=(M+m)a

F= lift force

m= mass of helicopter= 13000 Kg

M= mass of car= 2000 lb=907.2 kg

a= acceleration= 0.5 m/s²

g= acceleration due to gravity

F- (M+m)g=(M+m)a

F=(M+m)(a+g)

F=(13000+907.2)(0.5+9.8)

F=143244 N

when a circular plate of metal is heated in an oven, its radius increases at .03 cm/min, at what rate is the area increasing whe
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

Rate of change of area will be 9.796cm^2/min

Explanation:

We have given rate of change of radius \frac{dr}{dt}=0.03cm/min

Radius of the circular plate r = 52 cm

Area is given by A=\pi r^2

So \frac{dA}{dt}=2\pi r\frac{dr}{dt}

Puting the value of r and \frac{dr}{dt}

\frac{dA}{dt}=2\times 3.14\times 52\times 0.03=9.796cm^2/min

So rate of change of area will be 9.796cm^2/min

How much work must be done to stop a 1100-kg car traveling at 112 km/h?(Hint: You will need to convert the speed first.)Answer:
zimovet [89]

According to the Work-Energy Theorem, the work done on an object is equal to the change in the kinetic energy of the object:

W=\Delta K

Since the car ends with a kinetic energy of 0J (because it stops), then the work needed to stop the car is equal to the initial kinetic energy of the car:

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

Replace m=1100kg and v=112km/h. Write the speed in m/s. Remember that 1m/s = 3.6km/h:

\begin{gathered} K=\frac{1}{2}(1100kg)\left(112\frac{km}{h}\times\frac{1\frac{m}{s}}{3.6\frac{km}{h}}\right)^2=532,345.679...J \\  \\ \therefore K\approx532,346J \end{gathered}

Therefore, the answer is: 532,346 J.
