Crane load path

The crane lifts the load in a uniform, straight line to a height of 8 m and simultaneously moves in a horizontal direction to a distance of 6 m. What path did the load cover? What was the resulting velocity of the load if it took 50 seconds to move it

Final Answer:

s =  10 m
v =  0.2 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

a=8 m b=6 m  s2 = a2+b2  s=a2+b2=82+62=10 m
t=50 s  v=s/t=10/50=0.2 m/s
