Answers are:
(1) KE = 1 kg m^2/s^2
(2) KE = 2 kg m^2/s^2
(3) KE = 3 kg m^2/s^2
(4) KE = 4 kg m^2/s^2
Explanation:
(1) Given mass = 0.125 kg
speed = 4 m/s
Since Kinetic energy = (1/2)*m*(v^2)
Plug in the values:
Hence:
KE = (1/2) * 0.125 * (16)
KE = 1 kg m^2/s^2
(2) Given mass = 0.250 kg
speed = 4 m/s
Since Kinetic energy = (1/2)*m*(v^2)
Plug in the values:
Hence:
KE = (1/2) * 0.250 * (16)
KE = 2 kg m^2/s^2
(3) Given mass = 0.375 kg
speed = 4 m/s
Since Kinetic energy = (1/2)*m*(v^2)
Plug in the values:
Hence:
KE = (1/2) * 0.375 * (16)
KE = 3 kg m^2/s^2
(4) Given mass = 0.500 kg
speed = 4 m/s
Since Kinetic energy = (1/2)*m*(v^2)
Plug in the values:
Hence:
KE = (1/2) * 0.5 * (16)
KE = 4 kg m^2/s^2
Energy is "the ability to do work". Energy is how things change and move. It takes energy to cook food, to drive to school, and to jump in the air. Different forms of Energy. Energy can take a number of different forms.
Answer:
50.3N
Explanation:
Work done = force x distance
422J. = force x 8.39m
÷8.39 both side to get force
Force is 50.3N to 1 d.p.
Check:
50.3 x 8.39=422.017J
Same as 422J to 1 d.p
Correct question:
Consider the motion of a 4.00-kg particle that moves with potential energy given by
a) Suppose the particle is moving with a speed of 3.00 m/s when it is located at x = 1.00 m. What is the speed of the object when it is located at x = 5.00 m?
b) What is the magnitude of the force on the 4.00-kg particle when it is located at x = 5.00 m?
Answer:
a) 3.33 m/s
b) 0.016 N
Explanation:
a) given:
V = 3.00 m/s
x1 = 1.00 m
x = 5.00
At x = 1.00 m
= 4J
Kinetic energy = (1/2)mv²
= 18J
Total energy will be =
4J + 18J = 22J
At x = 5
= -0.24J
Kinetic energy =
= 2Vf²
Total energy =
2Vf² - 0.024
Using conservation of energy,
Initial total energy = final total energy
22 = 2Vf² - 0.24
Vf² = (22+0.24) / 2
= 3.33 m/s
b) magnitude of force when x = 5.0m
At x = 5.0 m
= 0.016N
Answer:
Explanation:
If we assume there is a sharp boundary between the two masses of air, there will be a refraction. The refractive index of each medium will depend on the relative speeds of light.
n = c / v
If light travels faster in warmer air, it will have a lower refractive index
nh < nc
Snell's law of refraction relates angles of incidence and refracted with the indexes of refraction:
n1 * sin(θ1) = n2 * sin(θ2)
sin(θ2) = sin(θ1) * n1/n2
If blue light from the sky passing through the hot air will cross to the cold air, then
n1 = nh
n2 = nc
Then:
n1 < n2
So:
n1/n2 < 1
The refracted light will come into the cold air at angle θ2 wich will be smaller than θ1, so the light is bent upwards, creating the appearance of water in the distance, which is actually a mirror image of the sky.
