A 45000 watt crane operating at full power lifts a 2100 kg object vertically for 17.4 seconds. How high has the crane lifted the
1 answer:
Answer:
Explanation:
We need the power equation here, which is:
Power = (F * Δx)/time
where F * Δx is the amount of work done.
F is a force which is measured in Newtons. We are given the mass of the object, but since we need a Force measure, we need the weight of the object:
F = 2100(9.0)
F = 21000 to the correct number of sig dig.
Now we can plug in the values we have and solve for the displacement, Δx:
and isolating x:
so
x = 37 m

Answer:
v = 2.18m/s
Explanation:
In order to calculate the speed of Betty and her dog you take into account the law of momentum conservation. The total momentum before Betty catches her dog must be equal to the total momentum after.
Then you have:
(1)
M: mass Betty = 40kg
m: mass of the dog = 15kg
v1o: initial speed of Betty = 3.0m/s
v2o: initial speed of the dog = 0 m/s
v: speed of both Betty and her dog = ?
You solve the equation (1) for v:
The speed fo both Betty and her dog is 2.18m/s
