Answer:
20 J
Explanation:
Kinetic energy is given as half of the product of mass and the square of velocity of an object:
KE =
where m = mass = 40 kg
v = velocity = 1 m/s
Hence, Mary's kinetic energy is:
KE =
KE = 20 * 1 = 20 J
She has a kinetic energy of 20 J.
Answer:
150 inches (12.5 ft)
Explanation:
The work done to lift the 500 pound block 3 inches should be the same as that to lift the 10 pond object a given distance.
The following is the equation one needs to solve:
therefore solving for the distance "x" gives as the answer (in inches):
which can also be given in feet as: 12.5 ft
