Answer:

h = 250 m

Explanation:

Given that,

The helicopter exerts 6480  N of force on the water while rising high enough to fly over a mountain.

The helicopter does 1.62\times 10^6\ J of work on the water lifting it.

We need to find how high does it lift the water. Work done is given by :

W=Fh\\\\h=\dfrac{W}{F}\\\\h=\dfrac{1.62\times 10^6}{6480}\\\\h=250\ m

So, it can lift the water to a height of 250 m.

expeople1 [14]

Answer:

0.125 m

Explanation:

Pressure in fluids is given as the product of density, height and acceleration due to gravity and expressed as

P=hdg

Where h is the height, d is density, g is acceleration due to gravity and P is pressure.

Making h the subject of formula then

h=P/dg

Given specific gravity of a substance, its density is equal to specific gravity multiplied by density of water. Taking density of pure water as 1000 kg/m³ then the density of reference fluid will be 1.05*1000=1050 kg/m³

Substituting pressure with 1.29*10³ pa as given then taking g as 9.81 m/s² then

H=1.29*10³÷(9.81*1050)=0.1252366389981068880151448958788408329692m

Rounded off, the height is approximately 0.125 m

A(n) 96.1 g ball is dropped from a height of 59.1 cm above a spring of negligible mass.The ball compresses the spring to a maxim
Serhud [2]

Answer:

Explanation:

Mass of ball Is m=96.1g=0.0961kg

Height above spring is 59.1cm

L=0.591m

Extension of the spring is 4.75403cm

e=0.0475403m

Then the distance the ball traveled is H=L+e

H=0.591+0.0475403

H=0.6385403m

Then, the potential energy of the ball is given as

P.E=mgh

P.E=0.0961×9.81×0.6385403

P.E=0.602J

From conservation of energy, energy cannot be created nor destroy but can be transferred from one form to another

Then, the P.E is transferred to the work done by the spring

Then, Work done by spring is given as

W=½ke²

W=P.E=½×k×0.0475403²

0.602=½×k×0.0475403²

k=0.602×2/0.0475403²

k=532.72N/m

The spring constant is 532.72 N/m

Why do I need to use the Unit Circle in Physics? And how do I use it?
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

The unit circle helps in making so many calculations and equations easy.

Explanation:

You cannot separate the knowledge of trigonometry to application in equations to physics. The unit circle is known to have a radius of one. This means that the distance from the centre of the circle, regardless of the unit of measurement, to any point of the edge of the circle is 1. Since the unit circle is very helpful in trigonometry, and trigonometry in turn is the projection of triangles and angles that is very crucial in the calculation of momentum, velocity and other factors of physics, the importance of the unit circle cannot be overemphasized in physics.

Please help me with this question :(
laila [671]

Answer:

\boxed{\text{\sf \Large 50 N}}

Explanation:

Sum of the vertical forces is zero

F₁ + F₂ - Z = 0

Z is negative since Z acts in the opposite direction from F₁ and F₂

30 + 20 - Z = 0

Z = 50
