The loaded cab of an elevator has a mass of 3.0 x 10 3 kg and moves 200 m up the shaft in 20 s at constant speed. At what averag
1 answer:
The average rate at which the cable does work is 294,000 J/s.
The given parameters:
- <em>mass, m = 3000 kg</em>
- <em>height, h = 200 m</em>
- <em>time of motion, t = 20 s</em>
The average rate at which the cable does work is calculated as follows;
Thus, the average rate at which the cable does work is 294,000 J/s.

Answer:
s = 1.7 m
Explanation:
from the question we are given the following:
Mass of package (m) = 5 kg
mass of the asteriod (M) = 7.6 x 10^{20} kg
radius = 8 x 10^5 m
velocity of package (v) = 170 m/s
spring constant (k) = 2.8 N/m
compression (s) = ?
Assuming that no non conservative force is acting on the system here, the initial and final energies of the system will be the same. Therefore
• Ei = Ef
• Ei = energy in the spring + gravitational potential energy of the system
• Ei = \frac{1}{2}ks^{2} + \frac{GMm}{r}
• Ef = kinetic energy of the object
• Ef = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}
• \frac{1}{2}ks^{2} + (-\frac{GMm}{r}) = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}
• s =
s =
s = 1.7 m
