A 3.00 watt electric motor is plugged into an electrical outlet It takes the motor 30 00 seconds to lift a mass of 254.9 g a distance of

10.00 cm. In that time, the motor has used 90.00 J of energy Assuming no energy leaves the system, how much heat has been

added to the system by the end of those 30 seconds?

    89.75 J

    Explanation:

    The motor uses 90.00 J of electrical energy. Any of that energy that isn't used to do work is converted to heat.

    The amount of work done is:

    W = mgh

    W = (0.2549 kg) (9.81 m/s²) (0.1000 m)

    W = 0.2501 J

    So the heat generated is:

    Q = 90.00 J - 0.2501 J

    Q = 89.75 J
