A chain of length L has a mass of m which is uniformly distributed. When it is placed on a smooth horizontal table, 1/4 of its l

ength hangs over the edge of the table (as shown in the figure). Then the chain slides away from the table freely, how much gravitational potential energy has changed from the beginning to the chain just sliding away from the table? (The height of the table from the ground is much greater than L)

Gravitational potential energy has changed from the beginning to the chain just sliding away from the table willl be MgL/24.

<h3>What is gravitational potential energy?</h3>

The energy that an item has due to its location in a gravitational field is known as gravitational potential energy.

Length of hanging part, L/4

The gravitational potential energy is;

Work = Gravitational potential energy

Work done =force×displacement

$\rm W = \frac{Mg}{3} \times \frac{L}{8} \\\\ W = \frac{MgL}{24}$

Hence, gravitational potential energy has changed from the beginning to the chain just sliding away from the table willl be MgL/24.

Look at paths of the projectiles. What effect does air resistance have on the projectile?

inna [77]

Answer:

Therefore the resistance of the air makes the movement not parabolic but shorter in each direction

Explanation:

The projectile motion is described by the kinematics equations giving a parabolic trajectory, where on the x axis there is no acceleration and on the y axis the acceleration is the acceleration of gravity.

When the air resistance is taken into account it can be approximated as a force that opposes the movement that for low speeds is proportional to the speed of the space.

Consequently, the movement in the axis and the acceleration is less, in some cases it can be so small that the constant handle speed, in this case, is called terminal velocity.

On the x-axis the friction force creates an acceleration in the negative direction of the movement that the projectile has to brake.

Therefore the resistance of the air makes the movement not parabolic but shorter in each direction.

Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

As a result of the violent revolts in france in july 1830 gave up the throne and fled for Great Britain.

Explanation:

Following Charles X taking the throne of France, he strengthened the power of the clergy and the monarchy. In 1830, Charles X attempted to suppress the Constitution, suspend Parliament, and shut down the press. The press disobeyed and encouraged mobs to protest. The protests got violent and fearing for his life, Charles X stepped down from the throne and took his family to Great Britain.

In a elastic lab what did you change and why?

Vilka [71]

I changed my undershorts. The elastic on the old ones I put on that day was deteriorated, and it completely failed when I dripped lab coffee on it, causing falldown.

At what speed does a 1,248 kg compact car have the same kinetic energy as a 18,777 kg truck going 26 km/h?

notka56 [123]

The speed of car is 100.8km/h

$KE = \frac{1}{2} m(v \: truck ) {}^{2}$

$= 0.5 \times 18777 \times \frac{26}{3.6} \times \frac{26}{3.6}$

$= 489708.79j$

$= \frac{1}{2} \times 1248 \times( v \: car) {}^{2}$

$= 624v {}^{2}$

$so \: v {}^{2} = \frac{489708.7}{624}$

$= 784$

$v = \sqrt{784}$

$v = 28m/s$

v car= 28×3.6

=100.8km/h

Hence, the speed of the car is 100.8km/h
