The gravitational potential energy is calculated by multiplying the mass of the object to the height and the gravitational acceleration which is 9.8 m/s^2. We do as follows:

GPE = mgh
GPE = 4942
4942 = m (9.8)(6.15)
m = 82 kg 

Hope this helps.

yuradex [85]

Answer:

1.25 kgm²/sec

Explanation:

Disk inertia, Jd =

Jd = 1/2 * 3.7 * 0.40² = 0.2960 kgm²

Disk angular speed =

ωd = 0.1047 * 30 = 3.1416 rad/sec

Hollow cylinder inertia =

Jc = 3.7 * 0.40² = 0.592 kgm²

Initial Kinetic Energy of the disk

Ekd = 1/2 * Jd * ωd²

Ekd = 0.148 * 9.87

Ekd = 1.4607 joule

Ekd = (Jc + 1/2*Jd) * ω²

Final angular speed =

ω² = Ekd/(Jc+1/2*Jd)

ω² = 1.4607/(0.592+0.148)

ω² = 1.4607/0.74

ω² = 1.974

ω = √1.974

ω = 1.405 rad/sec

Final angular momentum =

L = (Jd+Jc) * ω

L = 0.888 * 1.405

L = 1.25 kgm²/sec

A vehicle has an initial velocity of v0 when a tree falls on the roadway a distance xf in front of the vehicle. The driver has a
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

v^2=v_o^2-2\times a\times (v_o.t)

Explanation:

Given:

Initial velocity of the vehicle, v_o

distance between the car and the tree, x_f

time taken to respond to the situation, t

acceleration of the car after braking, a

Using equation of motion:

v^2=u^2+2a.s ..............(1)

where:

v= final velocity of the car when it hits the tree

u= initial velocity of the  car when the tree falls

a= acceleration after the brakes are applied

s= distance between the tree and the car after the brakes are applied.

s=v_o\times t

Now for this situation the eq. (1) becomes:

v^2=v_o^2-2\times a\times (v_o.t) (negative sign is for the deceleration after the brake is applied to the car.)
