Question: A loader sack of total mass
is l000 grams falls down from
the floor of a lorry 200 cm high
Calculate the workdone by the
gravity of the load.
Answer:
19.6 Joules
Explanation:
Applying
W = mgh........................ Equation 1
Where W = Workdone by gravity on the load, m = mass of the loader sack, h = height, g = acceleration due to gravity
From the question,
Given: m = 1000 grams = (1000/1000) kilogram = 1 kg, h = 200 cm = 2 m
Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²
Substitute these values into equation 1
W = (1×2×9.8)
W = 19.6 Joules
Hence the work done by gravity on the load is 19.6 Joules
Answer:
Increase 9 times
Explanation:
We have Newton formula for attraction force between 2 objects with mass and a distance between them:

where
is the gravitational constant.
is the masses of the 2 objects. and R is the distance between them.
Since the force is inversely proportional to the distance squared, if it is reduced by 3 times, the gravitational force between them would increase by
times
Answer:
The maximum height above the point of release is 11.653 m.
Explanation:
Given that,
Mass of block = 0.221 kg
Spring constant k = 5365 N/m
Distance x = 0.097 m
We need to calculate the height
Using stored energy in spring
...(I)
Using gravitational potential energy
....(II)
Using energy of conservation




Where, k = spring constant
m = mass of the block
x = distance
g = acceleration due to gravity
Put the value in the equation


Hence, The maximum height above the point of release is 11.653 m.
Consider 20 deg.C. as room temperature.
From tables,
Silver has a resistivity of 1.6*10^-8 ohm-m at 20 deg.C, and it increases by 0.0038 ohm-m per deg.K increase.
Therefore if the temperature rise above 20 deg.C is T, then silver will have resistivity of
1.6*10^-8(1 + 0.0038T) ohm-m
At room temperature, the resistivity of tungsten (from tables) is 5.6*10^-8.
The resistivity of silver will be 4 times that of tungsten (at room temperature) when
1.6*10^-8(1 + 0.0038T) = 4*5.6*10^-8
1 + 0.0038T = 14
T = 13/.0038 = 3421 deg.K approx
Answer: 20 + 3421 = 3441 °C
