    Calculating Crane Power with Constant Velocity: Two Homework Problems

    would I use GPE=mgh for the work? so for problem 1: work=(91kg)(9.8)(1.2)=1070.16J===> P=1070.167J/0.51s=2098.366W?

    Calculating Crane Power with Constant Velocity: Two Homework Problems

    Homework Statement 2 problems. 1: A man lifts a 91kg person straight up a distance of 1.2m in 0.51s. What power is used to do this? 2: 3.00x10^2kg piano is lifted at a steady velocity from ground to a height of 10.0m. The crane doing the lifting has a steady power of 4.00x10^2W. What time...

    Calculating Work Done by Forces on a Moving Object

    F=ma so the net force would be zero, which doesn't make sense becuase the cart is going forward, so wouldn't there have to be a force greater than the one that opposes it?

    Satelites & Orbits: Find the Orbital Speed

    lol this time i got 4.2x10^4m/s which is the right answer. Maybe i did forget the squre root. Thanks I had one more question and it is: Suppose the surface of a space station is rotating and 35.8m/s. What must be the value of r (radius) for the astronauts to weigh one-half their weight on...

    Circular Motion- Just a few quick questions

    the only equations that i can think of that are of any relevance are Uk=Fk/Fn Fc=mv^2/r and that's about it...but i don't know where to start because the only thing it gives you is velocity
