Find the energy in joules required to lift a 55.0 megagram object a distance of 500cm

Physics

pantera1 [17]3 years ago
5 0

1,000 grams = 1 kilogram
so 55 megagrams = 55,000 kilograms

100 cm = 1 meter
so 500 cm = 5 meters

Acceleration of gravity on Earth = 9.8 m/s²

Weight = (mass) x (gravity)

========================================

Work = increase in potential energy =

               (weight) x (height) =

             (mass) x (gravity) x (height) =

             (55,000 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) x (5 m) =

                     2,695,000 joules .

Meeta used an elastic tape to measure the length of her window to stitch a curtain. Do you think she will be able to stitch a cu
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

She will not be able to measure the length of her window accurately due to instrumental error from her choice of instrument. The elastic nature of her tape would alter the measurement because it will stretch as she is taking her readings, thus reducing the true measurement of the length of her window.

To measure the length of her window, she could use an inelastic tape rule or a metre rule. These instruments would eliminate instrumental error.

The right-hand rule predicts the direction of the force on a positively charged object moving in a gravitational field true fals
eimsori [14]
The statement above is FALSE.
The right hand rule is used in physics to predict the direction of the force on a charged object moving in a MAGNETIC FIELD. The right hand rule is used to relate the relationship between the magnetic field and the forces that are exerted on the moving objects in the field. Using the right hand rule, for a positively charged object that is moving in an electric field, the pointer finger will point in the direction the charged object is moving, the middle finger will point in the direction of the magnetic field and the thumb will point in the direction of the magnetic force that is pushing the charged object.

A plane travels at a speed of 205mph in still air. Flying with a tailwind, the plane is clocked over a distance of 1000 miles. F
vaieri [72.5K]

While plane is moving under tailwind condition it took time "t"

so here we will have

t = \frac{d}{v_{net}}

here net speed of the plane will be given as

v_{net} = v + v_w

t = \frac{1000}{205 + v_w}

similarly when it moves under the condition of headwind its net speed is given as

v_{net} = v - v_w

now time taken to cover the distance is 2 hours more

t + 2 = \frac{1000}{205 - v_w}

now solving two equations

\frac{1000}{205 + v_w} + 2 = \frac{1000}{205 - v_w}

solving above for v_w we got

v_w = 40.4 mph
