a lamp hangs from the ceiling at the height of 2.9 m. if the lamp breaks and falls to the floor what is its impact speed

1 answer:

5 0

This is a problem that can be solved using free-fall motion analysis. Since the displacement (2.9m) is given, we can use the following equation to solve for the impact speed:

V^2 = 2gh

V = sqrt (2*9.8*2.9)
V = 7.54 m/s

An elephant lifts 7 large logs from the ground to a container 5 meters above the ground as part of a zoo demonstration. The elep

Alisiya [41]

The work done by the elephant to lift one log is the force multiplied by the height at which the log has been lifted:
$W=Fh=250 N \cdot 5 m=1250 J$
And so, the total work done to lift the 7 logs is 7 times the work done to lift each log:
$W_t = 7 W=7 \cdot 1250 N=8750 J$

dybincka [34]

The time taken for him to move the bin 6.5 m is 2.30 s.

The given parameters;

weight of the load, w = 557 N
force applied , F = 410 N
angle of force, = 15°
coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.46
distance moved, d = 6.5 m

The net horizontal force on the recycling bin is calculated as follows;

$Fcos\theta - F_k = ma$

where;

m is the mass of the recycling bin
$F_k$ is the frictional force

W = mg

$557 = 9.8m\\\\m = \frac{557}{9.8} \\\\m = 56.84 \ kg$

The net horizontal force on the recycling bin is calculated as;

$Fcos \theta - F_k = ma\\\\Fcos\theta - \mu_kF_n = ma\\\\410\times cos(15) \ - \ 0.46(557) = 56.84 a\\\\139.8 = 56.84a\\\\a = \frac{139.8}{56.84} \\\\a = 2.46 \ m/s^2$

The time taken for him to move the bin 6.5 m is calculated as follows;

$s = v_0t + \frac{1}{2} at^2\\\\6.5 = 0 + \frac{1}{2} \times 2.46\times t^2\\\\6.5 = 1.23 t^2\\\\t^2 = \frac{6.5 }{1.23} \\\\t^2 = 5.285\\\\t = \sqrt{5.285} \\\\t = 2.30 \ s$

Thus, the time taken for him to move the bin 6.5 m is 2.30 s.

Name three bright Saturn ring features, and explain why they are so bright.

Leviafan [203]

The F Ring, the Cassini Division, and the C Ring are bright ring features. They are bright due to the low concentration of materials within them, which allows sunlight to shine through.
