Answer:

The work done by Ramas is 3920 N.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the load lifted by Ramas, m = 20 kg

height through which the load is lifted, h = 20 m

The work done by Ramas is equal to gravitational potential due to the height in which the load is lifted.

W = PE = mgh

where;

g is acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

W = 20 x 9.8 x 20

W = 3920 N.

Therefore, the work done by Ramas is 3920 N.

A 50g ball is released from rest 1.0 above the bottom of thetrack

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

The maximum height of the ball is 2 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of ball = 50 g

Height = 1.0 m

Angle = 30°

The equation is

$y=\dfrac{1}{4}x^2$

We need to calculate the velocity

Using conservation of energy

$\Delta U_{i}+\Delta K_{i}=\Delta K_{f}+\Delta U_{f}$

Here, ball at rest so initial kinetic energy is zero and at the bottom the potential energy is zero

$\Delta U_{i}=\Delta K_{f}$

Put the value into the formula

$mgh=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

Put the value into the formula

$50\times10^{-3}\times9.8\times1.0=\dfrac{1}{2}\times50\times10^{-3}\times v^2$

$v^2=\dfrac{2\times50\times10^{-3}\times9.8\times1.0}{50\times10^{-3}}$

$v=\sqrt{19.6}$

$v=4.42\ m/s$

We need to calculate the maximum height of the ball

Using again conservation of energy

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=mgh$

Here, h = y highest point

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{1}{2}\times50\times10^{-3}\times(4.42)^2=50\times10^{-3}\times9.8\times h$

$y=\dfrac{0.5\times(4.42)^2}{9.8}$

$y=0.996\ m$

Put the value of y in the given equation

$y=\dfrac{1}{4}x^2$

$x^2=4\times0.996$

$x=\sqrt{4\times0.996}$

$x=1.99\ m\ \approx 2 m$

Hence, The maximum height of the ball is 2 m.

Answer these questions plz

lozanna [386]

1. The property of a conductor by virtue of which it posses the flow of electric current through it is called resistance.

2. The resistance of a conductor depends on the cross sectional area of the conductor and it's resistivity.

3.This id due to the fact that the resistance of a wire is inversely proportional to the square of its diameter.

4.Due to at high temperatures , the alloy donot oxidize. Alloy doesn't melt readily and get deformed.

Using Hooke's law, F spring=k delta x, find the distance a spring with an elastic constant of 4 N/cm will stretch if a 2 newton

pishuonlain [190]

Hello!

Using Hooke's law, F spring=k delta x, find the distance a spring with an elastic constant of 4 N/cm will stretch if a 2 newton force is applied to it.

Data:

Hooke represented mathematically his theory with the equation:

F = K * Δx

On what:

F (elastic force) = 2 N

K (elastic constant) = 4 N/cm

Δx (deformation or elongation of the elastic medium or distance from a spring) = ?

Solving:

$F = K * \Delta{x}$

$2\:N = 4\:N/cm*\Delta{x}$

$4\:N/cm*\Delta{x} = 2\:N$

$\Delta{x} = \dfrac{2\:\diagup\!\!\!\!\!N}{4\:\diagup\!\!\!\!\!N/cm}$

simplify by 2

$\Delta{x} = \dfrac{2}{4}\frac{\div2}{\div2}$

$\boxed{\boxed{\Delta{x} = \dfrac{1}{2}\:cm}}\Longleftarrow(distance)\end{array}}\qquad\checkmark$

Answer:

B.) 1/2 cm

Calculate the power of the elevator if it can raise 290 kg of mass 30 flights of stairs (300 m) in 17 seconds

Advocard [28]

Answer:

Power = 50204 [watts]

Explanation:

We know that the power is defined by the following expression:

Power = Work/time

where:

Power [watts]

time [seconds]

The work done will be the following:

Work = Force * distance [Joules]

Force[Newtons]

distance[meters]

Force = mass* gravity

Force=290 [kg]*9.81[m/s^2] =2844.9[N]

Work = 2844.9[N]*300[m] = 853470[J]

Therefore

Power = 853470 / 17 = 50204 [watts]

Over a span of 6.0 seconds, a car changes its speed from 89 km/h to 37 km/h. What is its average acceleration in meters per seco

faltersainse [42]

Answer: Average acceleration is -2.407 $\frac{m}{s^{2}}$

Explanation:

Average acceleration is equal to change in velocity divided by time taken

therefore, $a=\frac{Vf-Vi}{t}$

=> $a=\frac{37-89}{6}\times \frac{5}{18}\frac{m}{s^{2}} = -2.407 \frac{m}{s^{2}}$
