Both positive work and negative work have meaning: Positive work follows when the force has a component parallel to the displacement. Positive work adds energy to a system. Negative work follows when the force has a component opposite or against the displacement.

An 888.0 kg elevator is moving downward with a velocity of 0.800 m/s. It decelerates uniformly and comes to a stop in a distance
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

The value of tension on the cable T = 1065.6 N

Explanation:

Mass = 888 kg

Initial velocity ( u )= 0.8 \frac{m}{sec}

Final velocity ( V ) = 0

Distance traveled before come to rest = 0.2667 m

Now use third law of motion V^{2} = u^{2} - 2 a s

Put all the values in above formula we get,

⇒ 0 = 0.8^{2} - 2 × a ×0.2667

⇒ a = 1.2 \frac{m}{sec^{2} }

This is the deceleration of the box.

Tension in the cable is given by T = F = m × a

Put all the values in above formula we get,

T = 888 × 1.2

T = 1065.6 N

This is the value of tension on the cable.

A missile is launched vertically from a missile silo, it will explode after 32 s. It's launch speed was 145 m/s, and it doesn't
Karolina [17]

Answer:

Landed before it explodes

Explanation:

vf = vi + at,

0 = 145 - (9.8)t,

t = 14.79 s (Time to reach highest point)

14.79 x 2 = 29.59 s (Time to land on the ground)

It will have landed before it explodes because both the time to reach the highest point and the time to land on the ground are less than 32 seconds.
