A few physics review questions! Please help quickly! Medal will be rewarded to best answer! If you apply 1.0 N of force to lift an object with a single-fixed pulley, then what is the resistive force? A man pulls a box with a rope parallel to the ground. He pulls the box 100.0 m and does 5,000 J of work. What was the mass of that box? A man begins pushing a lawn mower across a lawn from a standing start. Which statement is true? A. Man is decreasing kinetic energy (KE) of lawn mower. B. KE of lawn mower is not changing. C. Man is increasing KE of lawn mower. D. Cannot tell

@petiteme

OpenStudy (mrdoe):

to the first one, either friction, gravity or both depending on how detailed you want to get for the second, since no angle is involved, W=Force*distance

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for the first option I have 0.5 N,1.0 N, 1.5 N,2.0 N

OpenStudy (mrdoe):

gotcha, should be 1.0 N then

OpenStudy (anonymous):

cool

OpenStudy (petiteme):

You got it :D

OpenStudy (petiteme):

Sorry. I was doing something ^_^

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for the second question it would be 5,000 divided by 100.0?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@petiteme

OpenStudy (petiteme):

Work = force x distance

OpenStudy (petiteme):

So is you divide work and distance, you'll just get force

OpenStudy (petiteme):

if*

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok so 50 divided by 9.8 gives me mass?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5.1 approximately would be the mass? @petiteme

OpenStudy (petiteme):

F = ma m = F/a So yeah :D

OpenStudy (petiteme):

Good job! ^_^

OpenStudy (anonymous):

awesome! onto the third question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@petiteme @MrDoe

OpenStudy (petiteme):

The man is keeping the lawn mowers kinetic energy stable. Its not changing.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

awesome! you're really a great help! I've got one last sheet of work and I'll be done just a couple more relatively simpler questions

OpenStudy (petiteme):

Okies ^_^ You interact with me so that's great ^_^

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Of the following machines, which is not related to the others? Screw, lamp, or lever? A motorboat travels directly east. During its trip winds blow from directly north, south, and southwest. Which is true? A. Only southwest wind does work B. All winds do work C. Only north wind does work D. Only south wind does work. If a runner has power output of 150 W over 10.05, then how much work does he do? Which is a simple machine? bicycle, steering wheel system on boat, car or ramp? which machine is 2 inclined planes? doorstop, ax, screw, ramp?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@petiteme

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@petiteme

OpenStudy (petiteme):

I guess only the southwest wind does work on the boat.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yep

OpenStudy (anonymous):

second question I'm stuck on

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I mean the first

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@petiteme

OpenStudy (petiteme):

Of the following machines, which is not related to the others? Screw, lamp, or lever?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes would it be the lever?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and the runner question would be the last one giving me trouble

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@petiteme

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5 minutes left

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry study sheet is online and timed :/

OpenStudy (petiteme):

The first one is lamp :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (wolfe8):

I would say: 1N Use E=dF KE is basically movement

OpenStudy (petiteme):

He got it ^_^ Lol @wolfe8 YOU STALKER :P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry meant to say screw ramp or lever for the first

OpenStudy (anonymous):

k so the answer is 1 N?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@wolfe8 @petiteme

OpenStudy (anonymous):

could you tell me the answers in order to see if what I have is correct?

OpenStudy (wolfe8):

Well no that I think about it, does the object move? If yes, then the resistive force must be less than the opposing force for it to move with the opposing direction.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have ramp, A, ---, ramp, and ax

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is that correct? well except the third :P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@wolfe8 @petiteme

OpenStudy (wolfe8):

For the 3rd one use W=Pt

OpenStudy (petiteme):

^

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so are the first two correct?

OpenStudy (wolfe8):

I think all of them are correct

OpenStudy (petiteme):

yeahhhhhhhhh ^^

OpenStudy (anonymous):

p times t??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

please help me what the heck is p times t? output x time?

OpenStudy (wolfe8):

Pt=Power multiplied with time

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok and the first answer is ramp?

OpenStudy (wolfe8):

They're all right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thank you

OpenStudy (petiteme):
