The energy that was lost due to air resistance while she was bouncing is determined as 3,360 J.

<h3>Conservation of energy</h3>

The amount of energy lost due to air resistance while she was bouncing is determined from the principle of conservation of energy.

ΔE = P.E - Ux

ΔE = mgh - ¹/₂kx²

ΔE = (50)(9.8)(16) - ¹/₂(35)(16)²

ΔE = 3,360 J

Thus, the energy that was lost due to air resistance while she was bouncing is determined as 3,360 J.

A 150 N boy rides a 60 N bicycle a total of 200 m at a constant speed. The frictional force against the forward motion of the bi

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

W = 7000 J

Explanation:

To solve this problem we use that the speed of the bicycle is constant, therefore its acceleration is zero

F -fr = 0

F = fr

where F is the force applied by the child

Work is defined by

W = F. x

W = F x cos θ

in this case the child's force is parallel to the movement, therefore the angle is zero and cos 0 = 1

let's calculate

W = 35 200

W = 7000 J

a toy propeller fan with a moment of inertia of .034 kg x m^2 has a net torque of .11Nxm applied to it. what angular acceleratio

Harman [31]

Answer:

The angular acceleration is $\alpha = 3.235 \ rad/s ^2$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The moment of inertia is $I = 0.034\ kg \cdot m^2$

The net torque is $\tau = 0.11\ N \cdot m$

Generally the net torque is mathematically represented as

$\tau = I * \alpha$

Where $\alpha$ is the angular acceleration so

$\alpha = \frac{\tau }{I}$

substituting values

$\alpha = \frac{0.1 1}{ 0.034}$

$\alpha = 3.235 \ rad/s ^2$
