An elevator car with a mass of equal to 800 kg is pulled upward at constant...
An elevator is pulled upward so it moves with increasing upward speed?the force exerted by the cable on the elevator is constant and greater than the downward gravitational force exerted by Earth. When the elevator is moving up medium-fast, the force exerted by the cable on the elevator changes abruptly to just balance the downward gravitational force of Earth?the sum of the forces that the cable and Earth exert on the elevator is now zero.
A 500 kg elevator accelerates upward at 2 m/s2 for 17 m, starting from rest. A) How much work does gravity do on the elevator? B) How much work does the tension in the elevator cable do on the elevator? C) What is the elevator’s kinetic energy after traveling 17 m?
A skyscraper in Manhattan has an elevator that weighs 1000 kg when loaded. The elevator is lifted at a constant rate to 480m above the ground by an electric winch motor. The drum of the winch motor is a solid uniform cylindrical drum in which a steel cable can wrap around it. The mass of the drum is 500 kg and has a diameter of 1 m. It takes the elevator a total of 120 s to get to the...
A 900 kg elevator accelerates upward at 1.3 m/s2 for 11 m, starting from rest. You may need to review (Page 206) Part A How much work does gravity do on the elevator?Part B How much work does the tension in the elevator cable do on the elevator? Part C What is the elevator's kinetic energy after traveling 11 m?
A loaded ore car has a mass of 915 kg and rolls on rails with negligible friction. It starts from rest and is pulled up a mine shaft by a cable connected to a winch. The shaft is inclined at 26.5° above the horizontal. The car accelerates uniformly to a speed of 2.20 m/s in 12.0 s and then continues at constant speed. (a) What power must the winch motor provide when the car is moving at constant speed? W...
A mass m = 17 kg is pulled along a horizontal floor with NO friction for a distance d =6 m. Then the mass is pulled up an incline that makes an angle θ = 37° with the horizontal and has a coefficient of kinetic friction μk = 0.4. The entire time the massless rope used to pull the block is pulled parallel to the incline at an angle of θ = 37° (thus on the incline it is parallel...
A mass m = 12 kg is pulled along a horizontal floor with NO friction for a distance d =6.5 m. Then the mass is pulled up an incline that makes an angle θ = 25° with the horizontal and has a coefficient of kinetic friction μk = 0.44. The entire time the massless rope used to pull the block is pulled parallel to the incline at an angle of θ = 25° (thus on the incline it is parallel...
1. Power is a quantity Watts. 2. 1 hp is equal to 3. Energy is neither created nor destroyed, only determine the work done on an object, the angle 0, is measured between the Force and the 5. The SI units for Power are 6. Another name for the unit of Work, which is a N m, is called 7. Work done on an object slowing down is 8. Yo u push a lawn mower 6 times as far as...
4. A roller-coaster car with a mass of 250 kg carries a 75 kg passenger and starts from rest from a point 20 m above the ground. At point C, it is 15 m above the ground. A. What is the initial potential energy of the car (in kJ) at point A? - 75 kg 250. kg B. What is the potential energy at point B? C. If the initial kinetic energy was zero and the work done against friction...
question 1 A block of mass m is pulled at constant velocity along a rough horizontal floor by an applied force � as shown. What is the magnitude of frictional force? Write your answer in terms of m, g, T, or q. question 2 An 8000-N car is traveling at 12 m/s along a horizontal road when the brakes are applied. The car skids to a stop in 4.0 s. How much kinetic energy does the car lose in this...
