98J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of paint can = 5kg

Height of ladder = 2m

Unknown:

Work done = ?

Potential energy = ?

Solution:

Work done in moving the paint is the force applied under gravity to move it through the give height.

Potential energy is the energy due the position of a body at rest.

For this body:

The work done in moving the paint =  Potential energy at the top of ladder = m x  g x h

m is the mass of the pain can

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height of the building

Input the variables;

 Work done = 5 x 9.8 x 2 = 98J

Potential energy  = 98J

If you don't wear a helmet and let's say you fell off your bike, you can severely injure your head! But if you DO wear a helmet and you fell off your bike, there's about I predict a 98% chance that you won't injure but sometimes it's 100%

The amount of pressure required to move a 6800 lb force with a 6" d piston is ___ psi.
Katena32 [7]
The pressure needed in PSI = Pounds of force needed divided by the cylinder Area
The Cylinder rod Area is 21.19  sq inches
Thus, the pressure= 6800/21.19
                              = 320.91 PSI

BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

Decreasing the distance between Hox and Blox, increasing the mass of Hox, or increasing the mass of Hox and Blox.

Explanation:

The gravity force is directly proportional to the mass of the bodies and inversely proportional to the square of the distance that separates them.

Or

If we decrease the distance between both planets (Hox and Blox), the gravitational pull between them will increase.  

On the other hand, if we keep the distance between Hox and Blox, but we increase the mass of one of them, or increase the mass of both, the gravitational pull between them will also increase.

A bucket of water experiencing a gravitational force of 525 N is pulled from a water well. Net force in the Y direction is 45 N
vivado [14]

Answer:

T = 570 N

Explanation:

Given that,

The gravitational force acting on a bucket of water = 525 N

Net force in the Y direction is 45 N

We need to find the magnitude of the force of tension. It can be calculated as :

45 = T - 525

T = 525 + 45

T = 570 N

Hence, the force of tension is 570 N.
