What task requires the most work, lifting a 12-kg sack 2 meters or lifting a 25-kg sack 1 meter?

Physics
1 answer:
MrMuchimi2 years ago
5 0

Multiply the masses by the respective distances:

(12 kg) (2 m) = 24 J

(25 kg) (1 m) = 25 J

so the heavier bag takes more work to lift, and (b) is the answer.

(d) is technically correct if the sacks are carrying different contents whose masses are not equal, but since we don't know what's inside each sack, assume 12 kg and 25 kg are the masses of each sack *and* their contents.

What is mechanical waves
LuckyWell [14K]

Mechanical waves are those waves that  require a material medium for propagation.

<h3>What are mechanical waves?</h3>

Generally, we define a wave as a disturbance along a medium which transfers energy. It then follows that waves move energy from one point to another.

Waves can be classified as;

  • Mechanical waves
  • Electromagnetic waves

Mechanical waves are those waves that  require a material medium for propagation such as sound, and waves on a strings.

La velocidad de un tren se reduce uniformemente de 12m/s a 5m/s. Sabiendo que durante ese tiempo recorre una distancia de 100 m.
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Responder:

Explicación:

Dados los siguientes datos

Valor inicial u = 12 m / s

velocidad final v = 5 m / s

Distancia S = 100 m

Necesario

aceleración del tren.

Usando la ecuación de movimiento

v² = u² + 2as

2as = v²-u²

a = v²-u² / 2s

Sustituyendo los valores dados para obtener la aceleración que tenemos;

a = 5²-12² / 2 (100)

a = 25-144 / 200

a = -119/200

a = -0,595 m / s²

Por tanto, la aceleración del tren durante este período es de -0,595 m / s²

b) Si el tren viaja a una parada desde 5 m / s, su velocidad final será cero y su velocidad inicial u será 5 m / s

Para obtener la distancia durante este período, sustituiremos u = 5 m / s, v = 0 m / sy a = -1,19 m / s² en la ecuación de movimiento anterior;

v² = u² + 2as

0² = 5²-2 (0.595) s

0 = 25-1,19 s

1,19 s = 25

s = 25 / 1,19

s = 25 / 1,19

s = 21,0 m

Por lo tanto, la distancia que recorre hasta detenerse asumiendo la misma aceleración es 21.0 m

What is the energy level of hydrogen?
barxatty [35]

Answer:

The energies corresponding to each of the allowed orbitals are called energy levels.

Explanation:

A scientist known as Niels Bohr put forward that electrons in an atom covers some permitted orbitals with a specific energy. In other words, the energy of an electron in an atom is not continuous, but 'quantized.' The energies corresponding to each of the allowed orbitals are called energy levels.

E = -\frac{E_0}{n^2} \\where \\E_0 = 13.6 eV (1 eV = 1.602\times 10^{-19}Joules)\\and\ n = 1,2,3...

a fan acquires a speed of 180 rpm in 4s, starting from rest. calculate the speed of the fan at the end of the 5th second startin
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

225 rpm

Explanation:

The angular acceleration of the fan is given by:

\alpha = \frac{\omega_f - \omega_i}{\Delta t}

where

\omega_f is the final angular speed

\omega_i is the initial angular speed

\Delta t is the time interval

For the fan in this problem,

\omega_i = 0\\\omega_f = 180 rpm\\\Delta t=4 s

Substituting,

\alpha = \frac{180-0}{4}=45 rpm/s

Now we can find the angular speed of the fan at the end of the 5th second, so after t = 5 s. It is given by:

\omega' = \omega_i + \alpha t

where

\omega_i = 0\\\alpha = 45 rpm/s\\t = 5 s

Substituting,

\omega' = 0 + (45)(5)=225 rpm

You can enter compound units that are combinations of other units that are multiplied together. to enter the ⋅ explicitly, type
alexdok [17]

Answer:

30 N \cdot m

Explanation:

The torque applied by a force can be calculated as

\tau = F d sin \theta

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the length of the arm

\theta is the angle between the direction of the force and the arm

In this problem, we have

F = 15 N

d = 2.0 m

\theta=90^{\circ}

Substituting into the equation, we find

\tau = (15)(2.0) sin 90^{\circ}=30 N \cdot m
