There are some more like Time - second (s)
Amount of substance - mole (mole)
Electric current - ampere (A)
Temperature - kelvin (K)

Compute the work performed when 32 pounds is lifted 10 feet.

Murljashka [212]

W = force * displacement
W = 32 pounds * 10 feet
Now you need to convert it to newton and meters
W = 142 N * 3.048 m = 434 J
(I approximated the conversions- I hope it helps)

Initially a car accelerates at 2 m/s2 for x seconds. The car then travels at a velocity of -6 m/s for x seconds. If the car disp

Luda [366]

Answer:

The time travel is

t=8 s

Explanation:

$a= 2 \frac{m}{s^{2} } \\v=-6 \frac{m}{s} \\x=16m$

$x_{f}=x_{o}+v_{o}*t+\frac{1}{2} *a*t^{2}$

$x_{f}=0-6*t+\frac{1}{2} *2*t^{2}$

$t^{2}-6*t-16=0\\ using :\\\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^{2}-4*c*a } }{2} \\\frac{-(-6)+/-\sqrt{(-6)^{2}-4*(-16)*(1) } }{2}=\frac{3}{2} +/- \frac{10}{2} \\t_{1} = 2s \\t_{2} = 8s$

Check

$t_{2}=8s$

$x_{f}=x_{o}+v_{o}*t+\frac{1}{2} *a*t^{2}$

$x_{f}=0-6*+\frac{1}{2} *2*8^{2}$

$x_{f}=-48+64\\x_{f}=16$

2 a A pile of 60 sheets of paper is 6 mm high. Calculate the average thickness of a sheet of the paper.

fiasKO [112]

The average thickness of a sheet of the paper is 0.1 mm.

The number of ice blocks that can be stored in the freezer is 80 blocks of ice.

<h3>Average thickness of a sheet of the paper</h3>

The average thickness of a sheet of the paper is calculated as follows;

average thickness = 6 mm/60 sheets = 0.1 mm /sheet

Thus, the average thickness of a sheet of the paper is 0.1 mm.

<h3>Volume of each block of ice</h3>

Volume = 10 cm x 10 cm x 4 cm

Volume = 400 cm³

<h3>Volume of the freezer</h3>

Volume = 40 cm x 40 cm x 20 cm = 32,000 cm³

<h3>Number of ice blocks that can be stored</h3>

n = 32,000 cm³/400 cm³

n = 80 blocks of ice

Thus, the number of ice blocks that can be stored in the freezer is 80 blocks of ice.

A ski gondola is connected to the top of a hill by a steel cable of length 620 m and diameter 1.5 cm. As the gondola comes to th

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

(a) 89 m/s

(b) 11000 N

Explanation:

Note that answers are given to 2 significant figures which is what we have in the values in the question.

(a) Speed is given by the ratio of distance to time. In the question, the time given was the time it took the pulse to travel the length of the cable twice. Thus, the distance travelled is twice the length of the cable.

$v=\dfrac{2\times 620 \text{ m}}{14\text{ s}} = \dfrac{1240\text{ m}}{14\text{ s}}=88.571428\ldots \text{ m/s}= 89\text{ m/s}$

(b) The tension, $T$ , is given by

$v =\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\mu}}$

where $v$ is the speed, $T$ is the tension and $\mu$ is the mass per unit length.

Hence,

$T = \mu\cdot v^{2}$

To determine $\mu$ , we need to know the mass of the cable. We use the density formula:

$\rho = \dfrac{m}{V}$

where $m$ is the mass and $V$ is the volume.

$m=\rho\cdot V$

If the length is denoted by $l$ , then

$\mu = \dfrac{m}{l} = \dfrac{\rho\cdot V}{l}$

$T = \dfrac{\rho\cdot V}{l} v^{2}$

The density of steel = 8050 kg/m3

The cable is approximately a cylinder with diameter 1.5 cm and length or height of 620 m. Its volume is

$V = \pi \dfrac{d^{2}}{4} l$

$T = \dfrac{\rho\cdot\pi d^2 l}{4l}v^2 = \dfrac{\rho\cdot\pi d^2}{4}v^2$

$T = \dfrac{8050\times\pi\times0.015^2}{4} \times 88.57^2$

$T = 11159.4186\ldots \text{ N} = 11000 \text{ N}$
