The suspension cable of a 1,000 kg elevator snaps, sending the elevator moving downward through its shaft. The emergency brakes

of the elevator stop the elevator shortly before it reaches the bottom of the shaft. If the elevator fell a distance of 100 m starting from rest, the heat that the brakes must dissipate to bring the elevator safely to rest is (A) 100 J (B) 1,000 J (C) 10,000 J (D) 100,000 J (E) 1,000,000 J

Answer:

option (E) 1,000,000 J

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the suspension cable, m = 1,000 kg

Distance, h = 100 m

Now,

from the work energy theorem

Work done by the gravity = Work done by brake

or

mgh = Work done by brake

where, g is the acceleration due to the gravity = 10 m/s²

or

Work done by brake  = 1000 × 10 × 100

or

Work done by brake = 1,000,000 J

this work done is the release of heat in the brakes

Hence, the correct answer is option (E) 1,000,000 J

Bradley gets an x-ray at a radiology clinic that employs its own technologists and radiologists. Would the coder at the clinic r
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

Explanation:

If Bradley examination was done and interpreted in the same facility, the radiologist code is used example- procedure code 72100- Radiologic examination, spine, lumbosacral, 2 or 3 views is reported.

if the X-ray was taken by Dr X but Dr X does not read or interpret the image but forward it to the radiologist for initial report, then a 26- modifier is used. E.g A reports by the technologist would be, procedure code 72050-Radiologic examination, spine, cervical, 2 or 3

views or 72050- TC in certain situations and the consulting radiologist would report 72050-26.

if Bradley’s x-ray were sent to an independent radiologist for interpretation, then the procedure code 76140 is used in reporting.

For a Physics course containing 10 students, the maximum point total for the quarter was 200. The point totals for the 10 studen
Talja [164]

Answer:

130.5

Explanation:

According to the stemplot attached (Which I think it is, and if not, then you only need to replace the procedure with your data and you should be fine), you need to calculate first the points of all ten students. In that plot, we can easily calculate the points.

The first number in the colum represents the centen of the point, while the numbers of the second column, represents the units of that centen, for example if you see:

16 | 8 5 6

This means that the point for the students are 168, 165 and 166. Three students, three points.

If you watch the stemplot, the points for the students are:

116, 118, 121, 124, 128, 133, 137, 142, 146 and 179.

The median can be calculated using the mean between the two values in the middle of the sequence.

In this case, half of ten is 5, so, the numbers from the middle in this sequence are 128 and 133, therefore:

Median = 128 + 133 / 2 = 130.5

If the Force exerted by the intern is doubled and the distance is halved, does the done by the intern increase, decrease, or rem
Jlenok [28]

Remain the same

Explanation:

If the force exerted by the intern is doubled and the distance is halved, the work done by the intern remains the same.

 Work done is the force applied to move a body through a distance.

Work done = F x d

where F is the applied force

            d is the distance moved

Now;

if:

    f = 2f

    d = \frac{1}{2}d

Input the parameter:

 Work done = fxd = 2f x \frac{1}{2}d  = fd

The work done will still remain the same
