A weightlifter curls a 32 kg bar, raising it each time a distance of 0.50 m. How many times must he repeat this exercise to burn

off the energy in one slice of pizza? Assume 25% efficiency.

4 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Average energy contained by  a slice of pizza is 860 J  .

energy used in lifting 32 kg bar by .50 m = mgh

= 32 x 9.8 x .5 = 156.8 J

efficiency is 25 % , so energy used up = .75 x 156.8 = 117.6 J

So number of times exercise to be repeated to burn off energy of a slice of pizza

= 860 / 117.6

= 7.3 or 7 times .

julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

(a) 135 kV

(b) The charge chould be moved to infinity

Explanation:

(a)

The potential at a distance of <em>r</em> from a point charge, <em>Q</em>, is given by

V = -\dfrac{kQ}{r}

where k = 9\times 10^9 \text{ F/m}

Difference in potential between the points is

kQ\left[-\dfrac{1}{0.2\text{ m}} -\left( -\dfrac{1}{0.1\text{ m}}\right)\right] = \dfrac{kQ}{0.2\text{ m}} = \dfrac{9\times10^9\text{ F/m}\times3\times10^{-6}\text{ C}}{0.2\text{ m}}

PD = 135\times 10^3\text{ V} = 135\text{ kV}

(b)

If this potential difference is increased by a factor of 2, then the new pd = 135 kV × 2 = 270 kV. Let the distance of the new location be <em>x</em>.

270\times10^3 = kQ\left[-\dfrac{1}{x}-\left(-\dfrac{1}{0.1\text{ m}}\right)\right]

10 - \dfrac{1}{x} = \dfrac{270000}{9\times10^9\times3\times10^{-6}} = 10

\dfrac{1}{x} = 0

x = \infty

The charge chould be moved to infinity

When does the ball have the greatest and least amount of potential energy?
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

A ball thrown into the air has the most potential energy when it has reached the highest point above the ground before it begins descending. If we consider the vertical motion only beginning when the ball leaves the thrower’s hand, the ball is exchanging kinetic energy for (gravitational) potential energy. When all of the kinetic energy has been transformed, the ball begins falling, and exchanges it’s potential energy back into kinetic energy. If you ignore air resistance, the ball will land with as much energy as it began with.

Plz help i really need this
ddd [48]

Answer:

The reactivity of metals increases as you move left in a period and as you move down in a group, so Marie needs to know the period and group of the element inside each box. Boxes that show locations in groups 1 or 2 or in period 8 contain the most reactive elements.
