Answer:

W = 1493.9 J = 1.49 KJ

Explanation:

The work done by the elevator on the object will be equal to the gain in is potential energy:

W = ΔP.E

W = mgΔh

where,

W = Work = ?

m = mass of object = 7.4 kg

g = 9.8 m/s²

Δh = gain in height = 20.6 m

Therefore,

W = (7.4 kg)(9.8 m/s²)(20.6 m)

<u>W = 1493.9 J = 1.49 KJ</u>

a 2.35 water bucket is swung in a full cirlce of radius 0.824 m just fast enough so that the water doesn't fall out the top mean
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

2.84 m/s

Explanation:

At the top position of the circular trajectory, the normal reaction is zero:

N = 0

So it means that the only force that is providing the centripetal force is the gravitational force (the weight of the bucket). Therefore we have:

mg = m \frac{v^2}{r}

where

m is the mass of the water bucket

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

v is the speed of the bucket

r = 0.824 m is the radius of the circle

Solving for v,

v=\sqrt{gr}=\sqrt{(9.8 m/s^2)(0.824 m)}=2.84 m/s

Multiple-Concept Example 13 presents useful background for this problem. The cheetah is one of the fastest accelerating animals,
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

9241.6 W or 12.39318 hp

Explanation:

u = Initial velocity = 0

v = Final velocity

m = Mass

t = Time taken

Energy

KE=\frac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)\\\Rightarrow KE=\frac{1}{2}108(30.4^2-0^2)\\\Rightarrow KE=49904.64\ Joules

Power

P=\frac{KE}{t}\\\Rightarrow P=\frac{49904.64}{5.4}\\\Rightarrow P=9241.6\ W

Converting to hp

1\ W=\frac{1}{745.7}\ hp

\\\Rightarrow 9241.6\ W=\frac{9241.6}{745.7}\ hp=12.39318\ hp

The power developed by the cheetah is 9241.6 W or 12.39318 hp

find the potential energy of an aircraft weighing 10000 bs at 5000 ft true altitude and 125 kts true air speed
Cloud [144]

Answer:

U=5*10^7ft.Ib

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Weight  W= 10000bs

Altitude H=5000ft

Speed    V=125kts\\1kts=0.514m/s\\V=125*0.514=>64.25m/s

Generally the equation for Potential energy ids mathematically given as

Potential\ Energy\ U=mgh

U=Wh

U=10000*5000

U=5*10^7ft.Ib
