Work needed = 23,520 J

<h3> Further explanation </h3>

Given

height = 12 m

mass = 200 kg

Required

work needed by the crane

Solution

Work is the transfer of energy caused by the force acting on a moving object  

Work is the product of force with the displacement of objects.  

Can be formulated  

W = F x d  

W = Work, J, Nm  

F = Force, N  

d = distance, m  

F = m x g

Input the value :

W = mgd

W = 200 kg x 9.8 m/s²x12 m

W = 23520 J

Two lightbulbs work on a 120-V circuit One 50 W and the other is 100 W. Which bulb has a higher resistance? Explain pls!!!!
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

Bulb 1 has more resistance.

Explanation:

Given that,

Two lightbulbs work on a 120-V circuit.

The power of circuit 1, P₁ = 50 W

The power of circuit 2, P₂ = 100 W

We need to find the bulb that has a higher resistance.

The power of the bulb is given by :

P = \dfrac{V^2}{R}

For bulb 1,

R_1=\dfrac{V^2}{P_1}\\\\R_1=\dfrac{(120)^2}{50}\\\\R_1=288\ \Omega

For bulb 2,

R_2=\dfrac{V^2}{P_2}\\\\R_2=\dfrac{(120)^2}{100}\\\\R_2=144\ \Omega

So, bulb 1 has higher resistance.

Why is there no drag in space?????? Help me please!!! Thanks!!!
astraxan [27]
It is beacuse of fluid If there is no fluid, there is no drag. Drag is generated by the difference in velocity between the solid object and the fluid. If this statement is correct then how can there be drag in space if there is no air?

IgorC [24]

Answer:

Part A:

Distance=864000 m=864 km

Part B:

Energy Used=ΔE=8638000 Joules

Part C:

\frac{\triangle m}{m}=0.004998=0.49985\%

Explanation:

Given Data:

v=20m/s

Time =t=12 hours

In Secs:

Time=12*60*60=43200 secs

Solution:

Part A:

Distance = Speed**Time

Distance=v*t

Distance= 20*43200

Distance=864000 m=864 km

Part B:

Energy Used=ΔE= Energy Required-Kinetic Energy of swans

Energy Required to move= Power Required*time

Energy Required to move=200*43200=8640000 Joules

Kinetic Energy=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

K.E\ of\ Swans=\frac{1}{2} *10*(20)^2=2000\ Joules

Energy Used=ΔE=8640000 -2000

Energy Used=ΔE=8638000 Joules

Part C:

Fraction of Mass used=Δm/m

For This first calculate fraction of energy used:

Fraction of energy=ΔE/Energy required to move

ΔE is calculated in part B

Fraction of energy=8638000/8640000

Fraction of energy=0.99977

Kinetic Energy=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

Now, the relation between energies ratio and masses is:

\frac{\triangle E}{E}=\frac{\triangle m}{2m}v^2

\frac{\triangle m}{m}=\frac{2}{v^2} *\frac{\triangle E}{E}\\\frac{\triangle m}{m}=\frac{2}{20^2} *0.99977

\frac{\triangle m}{m}=0.004998=0.49985\%
