KE = 1/ 2 * 1252 * 144
as KE = 1/2 * m * v ^2
= 90144 J

Explain what happens to the gas pressure in a balloon as the temperature decreases

Julli [10]

Answer: The pressure decreases as the temperature decreases.

Explanation: As the temperature decreases, the particles of gas start moving more slowly. The particles' velocity decreases and as it collides with the wall of the container, it exerts a less force on the walls of the container. This follows on from the equation Ft = mv - mu. Less force therefore means less pressure as force and pressure are proportional according to equation Pressure = Force / Area.

A horse running at 3 m/s speeds up with a constant acceleration of 5 m/s2. How fast is the

Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

The horse is going at 12.72 m/s speed.

Explanation:

The initial speed of the horse (u) = 3 m/s

The acceleration of the horse (a)= 5 m/ $s^{2}$

The displacement( it is assumed it is moving in a straight line)(s)= 15.3 m

Applying the second equation of motion to find out the time,

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^{2}$

$15.3=3t+2.5t^{2}$

$2.5t^{2}+3t-15.3=0$

Solving this quadratic equation, we get time(t)=1.945 s, the other negative time is neglected.

Now applying first equation of motion, to find out the final velocity,

$v=u+at$

$v=3+1.945*5$

$v=3+9.72$

v=12.72 m/s

The horse travels at a speed of 12.72 m/s after covering the given distance.

Tom [10]

Well, its in the air, so the air is "upon" the ball. and when it comes down...you catch it, and throw it, and get someone out, and win the game, and just keep doing that, and boooommm you're and pro baseball player. Life is good
