Answer:
<em> The elastic potential energy stored in the bungee cord = 20 J</em>
Explanation:
potential energy: This is the energy possessed by a body due to its position. The S.I unit of energy is Joules. The mathematical expression for elastic potential energy is given below
E = 1/2ke²................ Equation 1
Where E = elastic potential energy of the spring, k = force constant of the spring, e = extension
<em>Given: K = 10 N/m, e = 2.00 m</em>
<em>Substituting these values into Equation 1</em>
<em>E = 1/2(10)(2)²</em>
<em>E = 5×4</em>
<em>E = 20 Joules.</em>
<em>Therefore the elastic potential energy stored in the bungee cord = 20 J</em>

Answer:
<h2>4.6 m/s²</h2>
Explanation:
The acceleration of an object given it's velocity and time taken can be found by using the formula
<h3>

</h3>
where
v is the final velocity
u is the initial velocity
t is the time taken
a is the acceleration
Since the body is from rest u = 0
From the question we have

We have the final answer as
<h3>4.6 m/s²</h3>
Hope this helps you
Answers:
a) 
b) 
Explanation:
a) The centripetal acceleration
of an object moving in a uniform circular motion is given by the following equation:
Where:
is the angular velocity of the ball
is the radius of the circular motion, which is equal to the length of the string
Then:
This is the centripetal acceleration of the ball
b) On the other hand, in this circular motion there is a force (centripetal force
) that is directed towards the center and is equal to the tension (
) in the string:

Where
is the mass of the ball
Hence:

This is the tension in the string
These are the correct solutions:
It is 11 a.m. in the Eastern Time Zone; therefore, it is 8 a.m. in the Pacific Time Zone. (3 hrs behind)
It is 3 p.m. in the Central Time Zone; therefore, 2 p.m. in the Mountain Time Zone. (1 hr behind)
It is 6 p.m. in the Pacific Time Zone; therefore, it is 4 p.m in Hawaii. (2 or 3 hours behind depending on time of year)
It is 6 p.m. in Hawaii; therefore, it is 11 p.m. in the Eastern Time Zone (5 or 6 hours behind depending on time of year).
It is 3 p.m. in Hawaii; therefore, it is 6 p.m. in the Mountain Time Zone (3 or 4 hours behind depending on time of year).
