Answer:
4 m/s
Step-by-Step Explanation:
E = mgh and h = E/mg
So if you put your numbers in the formula : h = 4000J/500 * 10
you will get h = 4/5 meters
use this , If the elevator moves from top to the ground in a constasnt acceleration you will have all energy (4000 J) transformed into acceleration to speed up its motion.
(All potential energy will be turned into movement energy). As explained in this formula;
mgh = mv²/2 , solve out (v) from the equation
v = √2gh = √2·10·4/5 (digits are together- not related to the problem, just for clarification) = 4 m/s
Answer the velocity of the elevator is
4 m/s
travel in a vacuum
transfer energy
create a disturbance
the other answer is wrong, the answer is A. 0 joules for plato users, i got 100 on the test
I'm assuming you're asking for the elevator's final velocity.
Consider the following equation:
Vf = Vi + aΔt
Vf is the final velocity.
Vi is the initial velocity.
a is the acceleration.
Δt is the amount of elapsed time.
Given values:
Vi = 12.60m/s
a = -3.60m/s²
Δt = 2.97s
Substitute the terms in the equation with the given values and solve for Vf:
Vf = 12.60 - 3.60×2.97
