A 2000-kg elevator is at rest when its cable breaks. The elevator falls 26 m before it encounters a giant spring at the bottom o

f the elevator shaft. As the elevator falls, its safety clamp applies a constant frictional force of 17,000 N. 1. List all the forces acting on the elevator after the cable breaks but before it hits the spring. Determine the work done by each force on the elevator. Make sure these work terms have the appropriate signs (positive or negative). 2. Calculate the net work done on the elevator. 3. Use the work-kinetic-energy theorem to determine the speed of the elevator right before it encounters the spring. 4. After the elevator encounters the spring, the spring compresses by 0.6 m before the elevator comes to rest. The safety clamp continues to apply a constant 17,000 N force. List all the forces acting on the elevator while it falls this final 0.6 m. 5. For each force listed in question F4, determine an expression for the work it does on the elevator. Make sure each work term has the appropriate sign (positive or negative). 6. Use the work-kinetic-energy theorem to determine the value of the spring constant k.

Explanation:

work done =force *distance

work done =17000*26

work done=442,000 joules.

Which color of light is diffracted at a greater angle from a diffraction grating, red or yellow light?
topjm [15]
The amount of diffraction depends on the wavelength of light, with shorter wavelengths being diffracted at a greater angle than longer ones (in effect, blue and violet<span> light are diffracted at a larger angle than is red light).

I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!

uppose two train cars are moving toward one another, the first with a mass of 150,000 kg and a velocity of 0.300 m/s; the second
kondaur [170]

The value was determined to be 0.122 m/s. The velocity of a body or object determines its direction of motion. Speed is a scalar quantity in its most fundamental form.

Velocity is essentially a vector quantity. It is the rate of change in distance. The initial speed of the first train, which has a mass of 150,000 kg, is 0.3 m/s. The second train has an initial speed of -0.120 m/s and a mass of 110,000 kg.

Let v represent the post-collision speed of the connected mass.

Utilize the idea of momentum.

The speed of the trains is constant both before and after a collision.

150.000 + 110.000v 45.000 - 13200 = 260.000 v 31800 = 260.000 v v = 0.122 m/s 150000 x 0.3 - 110000 x 0.120

After colliding, they move at a speed of 0.122 m/s towards the direction of the right.
