Answer:

v_f = 3 m/s

Explanation:

From work energy theorem;

W = K_f - K_i

Where;

K_f is final kinetic energy

K_i is initial kinetic energy

W is work done

K_f = ½mv_f²

K_i = ½mv_i²

Where v_f and v_i are final and initial velocities respectively

Thus;

W = ½mv_f² - ½mv_i²

We are given;

W = 150 J

m = 60 kg

v_i = 2 m/s

Thus;

150 = ½×60(v_f² - 2²)

150 = 30(v_f² - 4)

(v_f² - 4) = 150/30

(v_f² - 4) = 5

v_f² = 5 + 4

v_f² = 9

v_f = √9

v_f = 3 m/s

The amount of work done by two boys who apply 200 N of force in an
Aleksandr [31]

The amount of work done by two boys who apply 200 N of force in an unsuccessful attempt to move a stalled car is 0.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation: </u>

Work done is the measure of work done by someone to push an object from its present position. We can also define work done as the amount of forces needed to move an object from its present position to another position. So the amount of work done is directly proportionate to the product of forces acting on the object and the displacement of the object.  

           \text { Work done }=\text { Force } \times \text { displacement }

So in this present case, as the two boys have done an unsuccessful attempts to push a stalled car so that means the displacement of the car is zero as there is no change in the position of the car. But they have applied a force of 200 N each. So the amount of work done will be

           \text { Work done }=200 \mathrm{N} \times 0=0

Thus, the amount of work done by two boys will be zero due to their unsuccessful attempt to move a stalled car.

If the frequency of the motion of a simple harmonic oscillator is doubled, by what factor does the maximum speed of the oscillat
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

If the frequency of the motion of a simple harmonic oscillator is doubled , then maximum speed of the oscillator changes by the factor 2

Explanation:

We know that in a simple harmonic oscillator the maximum speed is given by

    v_{max} = Aw

  Here A is amplitude which is constant , so from above equation we see that maximum speed is directly proportional to w\\ of the oscillation .

  Since  w = 2 \pi f

      v_{max}^{|}/v_{max} = 2f/f = 2

  Where v_{max}^{|} is the maximum speed when frequency is doubled .

A 103 kg physics professor has fallen into the Grand Canyon. Luckily, he managed to grab a branch and is now hanging 93 m below
siniylev [52]

Answer:

125.83672 seconds

Explanation:

P = Power of the horse = 1 hp = 746 W (as it is not given we have assumed the horse has the power of 1 hp)

m = Mass of professor = 103 kg

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

h = Height of professor = 93 m

Work done would be equal to the potential energy

W=mgh\\\Rightarrow W=103\times 9.8\times 93\\\Rightarrow W=93874.2\ J

Power is given by

P=\frac{W}{t}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{W}{P}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{93874.2}{746}\\\Rightarrow t=125.83672\ seconds

The time taken by the horse to pull the professor is 125.83672 seconds
