What is the velocity of an upward moving 500kg elevator that has 4000 of energy

Answer:

4 m/s

Step-by-Step Explanation:

E = mgh and h = E/mg

So if you put your numbers in the formula : h = 4000J/500 * 10

you will get h = 4/5 meters

use this , If the elevator moves from top to the ground in a constasnt acceleration you will have all energy (4000 J) transformed into acceleration to speed up its motion.

(All potential energy will be turned into movement energy). As explained in this formula;

mgh = mv²/2 , solve out (v) from the equation

v = √2gh = √2·10·4/5 (digits are together- not related to the problem, just for clarification) = 4 m/s

Answer the velocity of the elevator is

4 m/s

The kinetic energy K = 0.5 * m * v² must be equal to the potential energy U = m * g * h.

m mass
v velocity
h height
g = 9.81m/s²

The mass m cancels out:
0.5 * v² = g * h
Solve for height h and transform to distance traveled.
(sin (4°) = height / distance)

Detergents are special, powerful cleansers that can break up dirt, oils, and grease in clothing or on dishes.

Cleaning solvents are used to remove oil, grease, solder flux, and other contaminants.

Acid cleaners are generally used to remove mineral deposits and are useful for descaling dishwashers or removing rust from restroom facilities.

* Buffing.
* Honing.
* Drilling.
* Grinding.
* Sanding.
* Polishing.
* Cutting.

Goryan [66]
You take the inverse of the total resistances of each branch and add them up. So if you have 5ohm, 7 ohm, and 10ohm, you would add 1/5 + 1/7 + 1/10 = 31/70 Then flip it back by either using the <span>x<span>−1</span></span><span> (inverse) key on your calculator or simply dividing 70 by 31 to get a total of 2.26ohms</span>
