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

A ball rolls off a table with a horizontal velocity of 3 m/s. If it takes 0.3 seconds for the ball to reach the floor, how high
LekaFEV [45]

The height of the table above the ground is 0.45 m.

<h3>Data obtained from the question</h3>

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

  • Horizontal velocity (u) = 3 m/s
  • Time (t) = 0.3 s
  • Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²
  • Height (h) =?

<h3>How to determine the height </h3>

The height of the table can be obtained by using the following formula:

h = ½gt²

h = ½ × 10 × 0.3²

h = 5 × 0.09

h = 0.45 m

Thus, the height of the table is 0.45 m

A car whose total mass is 800kg travelling with a uniform velocity of 20m/s suddenly observes a stationary dog 50m ahead on its
maxonik [38]

Answer:

The driver hits the stationery dog because the applied force is less than required force

Explanation:

Kinetic energy will be given by

KE=0.5mv^{2} where m is the mass of the vehicle and v is the speed/velocity of the vehicle.

Substituting 800 Kg for m and 20 m/s for v we obtain

KE=0.5*800*(20 m/s)^{2}=160,000

Frictional force by vehicle pads is given by

Fr=\frac {KE}{d} where d is the distance moved

Substituting 160000 for KE and 50 m for d we obtain

Fr=\frac {160000}{50}=3200 N

Therefore, the vehicle hits the dog since the required force is 3200N but the driver applied only 2000 N
