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]

Which of the following criteria can help Linda classify gases as greenhouse gases? gas molecules having three or more atoms gas
ratelena [41]
I think the correct answer would be the third  option. The criteria that could help Linda in classifying whether the gases are greenhouse gases would be gas molecules having at least one oxygen atom. Most of the greenhouse gases has an oxygen atom in their structures especially those that naturally occurs. These gases are CO2, H2O vapor and nitrous oxide.

Mary and her younger brother Alex decide to ride the 26 ft diameter carousel at the State Fair. Mary sits on one of the horses i
hammer [34]

Answer:

a_M=1.92a_A

Explanation:

\omega_M=\omega_A = Angular speed

r_M = Distance of Mary = 11.5 ft

r_A = Distance of Alex = 6 ft

Ratio of centripetal acceleration is given by

\dfrac{a_M}{a_A}=\dfrac{\omega_M^2r_M}{\omega_A^2r_A}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{a_M}{a_A}=\dfrac{r_M}{r_A}\\\Rightarrow a_M=a_A\dfrac{r_M}{r_A}\\\Rightarrow a_M=\dfrac{11.5}{6}a_A\\\Rightarrow a_M=1.92a_A

Mary's centripetal acceleration is 1.92 times the centripetal acceleration of Alex

A current of 0.2 A flows through a conductor for 5minutes. How much charge would have passed through the conductor?​
Montano1993 [528]

As we know,

electric \:  \: current =  \dfrac{charge}{time}

so, let's solve for charge (q) :

time = 5 minutes = 5 × 60 seconds = 300 seconds.

  • 0.2 =  \dfrac{q}{300}

  • q = 300 \times 0.2

  • q = 60

hence, the charge = 60 coulombs (C)

PLEASE HELP ASAP:
antoniya [11.8K]

True since coulomb's law states that There is electric force between like charges or opposite charges. The negative sign only shows the nature of the force.

<h3>What is the coulombs law ?</h3>

coulombs formula is given by

F=  \dfrac{K\times q_{1} \times q_{2}}{r^{2} }

Now it states that if two charged particles are separated by the distance r and having same or opposite charge will attract or repel each other.

The intensity of the force depend upon the distance and the nature of the charge.

Hence coulomb's law states that There is electric force between like charges or opposite charges. The negative sign only shows the nature of the force.

Use newton's third law to explain why a blown up balloon but untied balloon will fly around the room when you let it go? really
den301095 [7]
Newton's third law of motion states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. The balloon travels in the opposite direction as the air escaping from it. So when gas is released from the balloon it pushes against the outside air and the outside air pushes back. As a result of this the rocket is propelled forward by the opposing force. This opposing force is thrust. 

Hope this helps!
