Answer:
20 m
Explanation:
Given:
v₀ = 15 m/s
v = -25 m/s
a = -10 m/s²
Find: Δy
v² = v₀² + 2aΔy
(-25 m/s)² = (15 m/s)² + 2 (-10 m/s²) Δy
Δy = 20 m
Answer:
(a) work required to lift the object is 1029 J
(b) the gravitational potential energy gained by this object is 1029 J
Explanation:
Given;
mass of the object, m = 35 kg
height through which the object was lifted, h = 3 m
(a) work required to lift the object
W = F x d
W = (mg) x h
W = 35 x 9.8 x 3
W = 1029 J
(b) the gravitational potential energy gained by this object is calculated as;
ΔP.E = Pf - Pi
where;
Pi is the initial gravitational potential energy, at initial height (hi = 0)
ΔP.E = (35 x 9.8 x 3) - (35 x 9.8 x 0)
ΔP.E = 1029 J
