How would you work out the kinetic energy of an object when you are only given its weight and how far it has moved?

The value for kinetic energy is given by the formula (mass * velocity^2)/2. Since we have weight (not the same as mass) and distance moved rather than velocity we can't calculate the kinetic energy. You should note that weight and mass are not equivalent. Weight is measured in Newtons, while mass is measured in kilograms.


What is amplitude in physcial science?

It is the the maximum displacement or distance moved by a point on a vibrating body or wave measured from its equilibrium position.


If a block of concrete requires 2500 j to be moved 100m what is the weight of the block?

Work = force x distance;force = work/distance = 2500/100 = 25 Newtons weight which is about 2.5 kg mass


Force moved through a distance?

Force moved through a distance is work. Work = Force x Distance


How much effort is exerted if the weight is 400 grams and the pulley used is a movable pulley?

The answer will depend on the distance that the 400 grams has to be moved.


How they measured the continents move?

by how the nature moved


Formula of mechanical advantage?

Distance moved by input force / distance moved by output force


Actual mechanical advantage of a pulley?

Mechanical Advantage = distance moved at input / distance moved at output


What is the amount of work done by a weight lifter in holding a weight of 100kg on his shoulder for 40 seconds?

While just holding the weight on his shoulder, the weight lifter does no work! For work to be done, the mass must be moved through a distance … No Movement, No Work! (but don't tell that to a weight lifter …)


Apart from d What is the symbol in physics for distance moved?

λ can be used for the symbol for distance moved as well as the symbol for wavelength.


How do you convert from mass to distance?

With extreme difficultly as they measure different things: mass is a measure of how much something weighs*, whereas length is a measure of distance. * Actually weight is the force on a mass due to acceleration and is measured in Newtons. However, weight and mass are often, incorrectly, used interchangeably and I cannot think of a better word to describe mass. To further muddy the waters, mass and distance ARE related by energy and acceleration: energy = (mass × acceleration) × distance which can be rearranged to distance = energy ÷ (mass × acceleration) So for an object given a mass, an acceleration (on earth acceleration due to gravity is a good one) and an amount of energy put in, the distance the object is moved (by that energy [in acting as a force]) can be calculated.


What is the formula for finding average speed?

v = d / t where v = velocity d = distance travelled t = time taken An easy way to remember is that speed is measured in km / h. km is a measure of distance and hours is a measure of time. So it is distance divided by time.
