M, mass=84 kg
height, h=3.9m
gravity, g= 9.8m/s2
W = F . d
F=force
d=Displacement
W=work done by force
Now by putting the values
F= m g (Acting downward )
d= h (Upward)
W= m g h ( work done against the force)
W= 84•9.8•3.9J
W= 3210.48
Therefore the answer will be 3210.48J.

A 1.00 kg object is attached to a horizontal spring. the spring is initially stretched by 0.500 m, and the object is released fr
valina [46]
The  spring is initially stretched, and the mass released from rest (v=0). The next time the speed becomes zero again is when the spring is fully compressed, and the mass is on the opposite side of the spring with respect to its equilibrium position, after a time t=0.100 s. This corresponds to half oscillation of the system. Therefore, the period of a full oscillation of the system is
T=2 t = 2 \cdot 0.100 s = 0.200 s
Which means that the frequency is
f= \frac{1}{T}= \frac{1}{0.200 s}=5 Hz
and the angular frequency is
\omega=2 \pi f = 2 \pi (5 Hz)=31.4 rad/s

In a spring-mass system, the maximum velocity of the object is given by
v_{max} = A \omega
where A is the amplitude of the oscillation. In our problem, the amplitude of the motion corresponds to the initial displacement of the object (A=0.500 m), therefore the maximum velocity is
v_{max} = A \omega = (0.500 m)(31.4 rad/s)= 15.7 m/s

A stuntman is being pulled along a rough road at a constant velocity by a cable attached to a moving truck. The cable is paralle
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

715 N

Explanation:

Since the system is moving at a constant velocity, the net force must be 0. The tension on the road is equal and opposite direction with the kinetic friction force created by the road and the stuntman.

Let g = 9.8 m/s2

Gravity and equalized normal force is:

N = P = mg = 107*9.8 = 1048.6 N

Kinetic friction force and equalized tension force on the rope is

T = F_{\mu} = N\mu = 1048.6 * 0.682 = 715.1452 N
