    Work and energy for a lowered block

    So the Tension force would be equal to T= M*g - M*a and that is equal to 274.4N

    Work and energy for a lowered block

    No, I do not think it is. So I drew out the free body diagram and I got that the Tension force of the cord, T - mg = ma. So T = ma + mg For this I got 411.5 N To solve for work I multiplied it by 6.5m and got 2675.4J which is wrong. I am not sure what I am doing.

    Work and energy for a lowered block

    Homework Statement A cord is used to vertically lower an initially stationary block of mass M = 35 kg at a constant downward acceleration of g/5. When the block has fallen a distance d = 6.5 m, find the work done by the cord's force on the block. Find the work done by the weight of the block...

    Atom Volume Calc: Find the Volume of a Lead Atom

    Right. so it would be 11.35 g/cm^3 * 1000000cm^3/1 m^3 to give 11350000 g/m^3 which you divide into 3.439*10^-22 g

    Atom Volume Calc: Find the Volume of a Lead Atom

    100 so it would be cubed to get m^3 and it would be 3.03*10^-29 which is the right answer

    Atom Volume Calc: Find the Volume of a Lead Atom

    Homework Statement Lead has a mass of 11.35 g per cubic centimeter of volume, and the mass of one of its atoms is 3.439×10-25 kg. If the atoms are spherical and tightly packed, what is the volume of an individual atom? ( m3) Homework Equations conversions The Attempt at a Solution For this...

    Find the initial velocity of the package relative to the ground

    Yes. Thank you for your help. Sorry for the late response I went to a research meeting.

    Find the initial velocity of the package relative to the ground

    Its the final velocity of the package so Vy

    Find the initial velocity of the package relative to the ground

    yes it takes 1.41s from V = Vi +at. V is now -13.86 m/s because the initial Velocity was 0 m/s
