A 3858 N piano is to be pushed up a(n) 3.49 m frictionless plank that makes an angle of 31.6 ◦ with the horizontal. Calculate th

uranmaximum [27]

The work done will be equal to the potential energy of the piano at the final position

P.E=m.g.h

.consider the plank the hypotenuse of the right triangle formed with the ground
.let x be the angle with the ground=31.6°
.h be the side opposite to the angle x (h is the final height of the piano)
.let L be the length of the plank

sinx=opposite side / hypotenuse
= h/L

then h=L.sinx=3.49×sin31.6°=0.638m

weight w=m.g
m=w/g=3858/10=385.8kg

Consider Gravity g=10m/s2

then P.E.=m.g.h=385.8kg×10×0.638=2461.404J

then Work W=P.E.=2451.404J

PLEASE HELP ASAP! THANKS! Why is it a rare occasion to see a solar eclipse from your home?

Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

It is very rare to see a solar eclipse from your home, because the Earth, Sun, and the moon need to align just right. Not everyone in the world can view a solar eclipse, only some area can. A solar eclipse is where the moon blocks out the sun. If you think about it: Let's say you live in Florida, U.S.A. You may see the moon coming in front of the sun, but if you lived in California or sumthin', the moon and the sun wouldn't be aligned to form a solar eclipse. It all depends on location... so it is rare to see one.

What are the four forms of matter that waves can travel through?

podryga [215]

Answer:

It can be a solid, liquid, gas,plasma,etc. When waves travel through a medium, the particles of the medium are not carried along with the wave.For example, water waves have to travel in water. Sound waves need a solid, a liquid or a gas to travel in.

A 513 g ball strikes a wall at 14.7 m/s and rebounds at 11.3 m/s. The ball is in contact with the wall for 0.038 s. What is the

Natasha_Volkova [10]

consider the velocity of the ball towards the wall as negative and away from the wall as positive.

m = mass of the ball = 513 g = 0.513 kg

v₀ = initial velocity of the ball towards the wall before collision = - 14.7 m/s

v = final velocity of the ball away from the wall after collision = 11.3 m/s

t = time of contact with the wall = 0.038 sec

F = average force acting on the ball

using impulse-change in momentum equation , average force is given as

F = m (v - v₀)/t

inserting the values

F = (0.513) (11.3 - (- 14.7))/0.038

F = 351 N

A projectile is fired directly upwards at 49.4 m/s. A second projectile is dropped from rest at some higher elevation at the ins

8090 [49]

Answer:

Explanation:

velocity of first projectile after 3 s

v = u - gt

v = 49.4 - 9.8 x 3

= 20 m /s

Velocity of second projectile after 3 s after being dropped from rest

v = u + gt

= 0 + 9.8 x 3

= 29.4 m /s

They will be moving in opposite direction at the time of meeting , so their relative velocity

= 20 + 29.4 = 49.4 m /s

From the frame of reference of the first projectile, the velocity of the second projectile will be 49.4 m /s .
