Calculate the work done by a crane lifting a 3.8mg ( megagrams or tonnes) load to a height of 23m. ( g= 10 m/s squared) Thank you, it's really urgent :))

874000J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass  = 3.8Mg  = 3.8 x 10⁶g

  To kilograms;

          1000g  = 1kg

        3.8 x 10⁶g will be 3.8 x 10³kg

height  = 23m

Unknown :

Work done  = ?

Solution:

The work done by a body is give as;

    Work done  = mgh

m is the mass

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height

 Now insert the parameters and solve;

             Work done  = 3.8 x 10³ x 10 x 23  = 874000J

most voltage drop calculators want the distance between the source and destination. then internally, they double it so both the source and return wires are calculated. but you need to know which distance the calculator uses so you're not half of what you should be or double what you should be.

most circuit breakers will not take a #6 directly, so the electrician will have to splice on a smaller pigtail. you also have to upsize the grounding wire when you upsized the ungrounded (hot) wire (see note in 250.122). this will preclude using most cable assemblies, as a cable with #6 copper will most likely only have a #10 grounding conductor. you need a #6 grounding conductor if the circuit is 20a. a #8 cable is no better, as it will have a #10 grounding conductor too. but most 20a breakers will take a #8 directly.

in your related post, you didn't say what type of load this is. if it is a light or heater, voltage drop won't be a big issue. if this is a motor, the current needs are huge at startup and the voltage drop can pose a problem. if this is a motor, knowing if the motor is under much load during startup will answer the voltage drop effect (a saw is easier to start than a compressor).

the working equation for the angular size is the product of the physical size and 360 degrees divided by the product of two pi and distance from earth. the minimum size would be 0.559 degrees while the maximum size would be 0.49 degrees.
