Answer:

Mass is a base unit, acceleration is a derived unit calculated as a function of length and time which are both base units. Any unit definition that is a function of more basic units is considered a derived unit.

A 500 lb steel beam is lifted up by a crane to a height of 100 ft and is held there.
Nadya [2.5K]

A. How much work is being done to hold the beam in place?

Work is the product of Force and Displacement. Since there is no Displacement involved in just holding the beam in place, hence the work is zero.

 

B. How much work was done to lift the beam?

In this case, force is simply equal to weight or mass times gravity. Hence the work is:

Work = weight * displacement

Work = 500 lbf * 100 ft

Work = 50,000 lbf * ft

 

C. How much work would it take if the steel beam were raised from 100 ft to 200ft?

The displacement is still 100 ft since 200 – 100 = 100 ft, hence the work done is still similar in B which is:

<span>Work = 50,000 lbf * ft</span>

Two weights are hanging as shown in the figure .
Anna [14]
Draw the free body diagram for the mass W2.

In it the only forces that appear are W2 (downward) and the Tension of the cable A (upward), TA

Net force = 0 => W2 = TA

Then TA = 200 N

Describe the formation of galaxies.
olga2289 [7]

Today's cosmologists assume that matter was not uniformly distributed in the universe after the Big Bang. Dense places attract more matter than the surrounding area according to their gravitational forces. Over the course of billions of years, these gas agglomerations eventually led to the formation of the galaxies we see today.
