F = m*a when F is force
m is mass and a is acceleration
F = 60 kg * 29 m/s2
F = 1740 N

To simulate deafness, put ear plugs or cotton balls into your ears and put your hands over your ears to block out all sound. Des
yulyashka [42]

Just so you know, total deafness is quite different than partial deafness.

Partial deafness can be any number of things. It can be an inability to make out the contents of high notes (notes with high frequencies and few harmonics).

Partial deafness can be the inability to hear low notes. I only know one person who suffers from that.

Your response to speech is quite different. Usually you have to have people look right at you. Lip reading is an art. Most deaf people between what they partially hear and lip reading can make out about 1/2 of what is said. Guessing usually takes care of the rest. Course you can get everything all muddled by guessing.

It does change your way of life. The TV is often turned up high enough that people living 4 houses down can list to the 6 o'clock news when you do.

Music is hard to make out. The overtones are lost.

Earphones have very tinny sound.

People are not as enjoyable as they once were.

A crane lifts a 425 kg steel beam vertically upward a distance of 66 m. How much work does the crane do on the beam if the beam
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

W = 311074.5 [J]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem we must analyze two parts, in the first part by means of Newton's second law we can determine the acceleration of the beam, remembering that the sum of the forces is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

∑F = m*a

F = forces acting on the beam [N]

m = mass = 425 [kg]

a = acceleration = 1.8 [m/s²]

The forces acting on the beam are the force of the crane up (positive) and the weight of the beam down (negative)

F_{crane}-(425*9.81)= 425*1.8\\F_{crane}=4713.25 [N]

Now in the second part, we use the definition of work, which is equal to the product of the force applied in the direction of displacement, that is, the product of force by distance.

W=F*d

where:

W = work [J]

F = force = 4713.25 [N]

d = distance = 66 [m]

W=4713.25*66\\W=311074.5[J]

A person lifts a 4.5 kg cement block a vertical distance of 1.2 m and then carries the block horizontal- ly a distance of 7.3 m.
Delvig [45]
<span>When a person lifts the block, the block has more potential energy. Therefore the person does positive work on the block. work = m g h work = (4.5 kg) (9.80 m/s^2) (1.2 m) work = 52.92 joules The person's work on the block is 52.92 joules When the block is being raised, the force of gravity opposes the motion. Therefore the force of gravity does negative work on the block. work = - (force) (h) work = - m g h work = -(4.5 kg) (9.80 m/s^2) (1.2 m) work = -52.92 joules The work done by the force of gravity on the block is -52.92 joules Note that when the block is moved horizontally, the potential energy does not change. Therefore there is no work done on the block when it moves horizontally (we are assuming that the kinetic energy does not change).</span>
