Elivator, cause their is more gravity fighting agenced it, because its being directly lifted

ANSWER: ELEVATOR:
An elevator gets its power from the electric motors that lift it. so you are not physically moving and all you have to do is stand and wait for the elevator to stop at the 10th floor but stairs don't have any power at all.  All the energy used to climb them has to come from your muscles.

A boy pulls a 28.0-kg box with a 230-N force at 35° above a horizontal surface. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between t
ddd [48]

Answer:

1977.696 J

Explanation:

Given;

Weight of the box = 28.0 kg

Force applied by the boy = 230 N

angle between the horizontal and the force = 35°

Therefore,

the horizontal component of the force = 230 × cosθ

= 230 × cos 35°

= 188.405 N

Coefficient of kinetic friction, μ = 0.24

Force by friction, f = μN

here,

N = Normal force = Mass × acceleration due to gravity

or

N = 28 × 9.81 = 274.68 N

therefore,

f = 0.24 × 274.68

or

f = 65.9232 N

Now,

work done by the boy, W₁ = 188.405 N × Displacement  

= 188.405 N × 30

= 5652.15 J

and,

the

work done by the friction, W₂ = - 65.9232 N × Displacement  

= - 65.9232 N × 30 m

= - 1977.696 J

[ since the friction force acts opposite to the direction of motion, therefore the workdone will be negative]

A student walks (2.9±0.1)m, stops and then walks another (3.9 ±0.2)m in the same directionWith the given uncertainties, what is
Anika [276]

Answer:

The smallest distance the student that the student could be possibly be from the starting point is 6.5 meters.

Explanation:

For 2 quantities A and B represented as

A\pm \Delta A and B\pm \Delta B

The sum is represented as

Sum=(A+B)\pm (\Delta A+\Delta B)

For the the values given to us the sum is calculated as

Sum=(2.9+3.9)\pm (0.1+0.2)

Sum=6.8\pm 0.3

Now the since the uncertainity inthe sum is \pm 0.3

The closest possible distance at which the student can be is obtained by taking the negative sign in the uncertainity

Thus closest distance equals 6.8-0.3=6.5meters

xeze [42]

Answer:

K.E = 4800 Joules.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 600 kg

Velocity = 4 m/s

To find the kinetic energy;

Kinetic energy can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its motion.

Mathematically, kinetic energy is given by the formula;

K.E = \frac{1}{2}MV^{2}

Where;

K.E represents kinetic energy measured in Joules.

M represents mass measured in kilograms.

V represents velocity measured in metres per seconds square.

Substituting into the equation, we have;

K.E = \frac{1}{2}*600*4^{2}

K.E = 300 * 16

K.E = 4800 Joules.

Three boys of equal strength try to break a rope (and fail) by tying one end to a fence post and tugging on the other end. Three
podryga [215]

The best choice would be C. Keep one end of the rope tied to the post and have all six boys tug on the other end.

Reason:

A is not correct since in the first case which is B, untying the rope from the post and have 3 boys on each end of it tug, will provide equal or a near equal amount of tension since the boys are all within the same strength, however there can be variables that will affect the tension.

That means B would be true according to A, and then for C, having all six boys pull on the other end of the rope would provide greater tension, since if 3 boys of the same strength range can't break the rope when its tied to the fence, we add the other 3 boys of the same strength.

However, if 3 boys are on each end of the rope and of the same strength then the rope will not break since there is an equal amount of net force exerted on the rope.

We know that the fence can withstand the strength of 3 boys but if we add the other 3 boys then it could provide us with a different outcome.

3B < F

3B(2) ≥ F

So, therefore, our best choice would be C since A and B is incorrect.

Impact of Synthetic Materials Discussion
Wittaler [7]

With the below stated fact  I think that  the pros of using synthetic materials outweighs the cons.

Before we answer the question

If the pros of using synthetic materials outweigh the cons or otherwise, let us first establish the what a synthetic material is and its pros and cons

Synthetic material

Synthetic material is a material in which a substances are changed chemically to produce a material with different characteristics.

Types of Synthetic material

  •    Plastic bag  
  •    Synthetic fiber/cloth  
  •    Artificial sweetener
  •    Synthetic fuel      
  •    Aspirin

Pros of Synthetic materials

  • They are used in construction because of there strong bonding
  • They can be molded
  • They can be colored into any shade
  • They are cheap

Cons of Synthetic materials

  • Sometimes none degradable
  • They do not absorb water.
  • They are highly flammable
  • Melts easily

In conclusion

Although Synthetic materials has so very pressing disadvantages to human kind it is unrefusable the importance of Synthetic materials to the day to day live of all humans

Therefore, I think that  the pros of using synthetic materials outweighs the cons
