Answer:
(a) Workdone = -27601.9J
(b) Average required power = 1314.4W
Explanation:
Mass of hoop,m =40kg
Radius of hoop, r=0.810m
Initial angular velocity Winitial=438rev/min
Wfinal=0
t= 21.0s
Rotation inertia of the hoop around its central axis I= mr²
I= 40 ×0.810²
I=26.24kg.m²
The change in kinetic energy =K. E final - K. E initail
Change in K. E =1/2I(Wfinal² -Winitial²)
Change in K. E = 1/2 ×26.24[0-(438×2π/60)²]
Change in K. E= -27601.9J
(a) Change in Kinetic energy = Workdone
W= 27601.9J( since work is done on hook)
(b) average required power = W/t
=27601.9/21 =1314.4W
Conservation is a method of improving air quality
The work done by the elephant to lift one log is the force multiplied by the height at which the log has been lifted:

And so, the total work done to lift the 7 logs is 7 times the work done to lift each log:
Can you explain this a bit more I don’t quite understand
