4 0

Answer:

6.4m/s

Explanation:

The total mechanical energy of the man is 1780J.

This mechanical energy is the energy due to the motion of the body and it is a form of kinetic energy.

 Also, mass  = 87kg

   Kinetic energy  = \frac{1}{2}   m v²

m is the mass

v is the velocity

           1780  =  \frac{1}{2} x 87 x v²

                v²  = 40.9

                v  = 6.4m/s

A heavy rope, 80 ft long and weighing 32 lbs, hangs over the edge of a building 100 ft high. how much work w is done in pulling
allochka39001 [22]
The first thing you should know for this case is that work is defined as the product of force by the distance traveled in the direction of force.
 We have then:
 W = Fd
 The distance varies, so we must integrate:
 from 0 to 20:
 W = ∫F (x) dx
 W = ∫32xdx
 W = 32∫xdx
 W = 32 (x ^ 2/2) = (16) (20 ^ 2) = 6400 ft * lbs
 answer:
 6400 ft * lbs is work done pulling the rope up 20 ft

Jimmy is cooking pasta in a pot of water on the stove. He uses a stopwatch to see how long the pasta takes to cook depending on
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

stove

Explanation:

The stove is the independent variable in this question as it does not depend on anything like other variables such as pot, water, temperature and of cause pasta.

The pot depends on the stove, the water depends on the pot and stove, the pasta depends on the water and its temperature.

Cheers.

If a crane worker lifts a crate with a mass of 200 kg from the ground to a
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

A. 88,200 J

Explanation:

Given data,

The mass of the crate, m = 200 kg

The height of the shipping container, h = 45 m

The gravitational of a body is possessed by the body due to the virtue of its position.

The formula for gravitational potential energy is,

                                 P.E = mgh joules

Substituting the values

                                  P.E = 200 x 9.8 x 45

                                         = 88,200 J

Hence, the gravitational potential energy of the crate is, P.E = 88,200 J
