I have to be honest with you . . . It's not possible to determine the answer with only the information given in the question.

Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed squared).

Josie's Kinetic energy as she crosses the finish line is

(1/2) (her mass) (her speed as she crosses the finish line)².

That's (5 kg) x (her speed as she crosses the finish line)² .

But read the question again.

WE DON'T know her speed as she crosses the finish line.

The question only tells us her average speed for the whole race.

We can be confident that her <u><em>Average</em></u> Kinetic Energy was

(5 kg) (16 m/s)²  =  1,280 Joules.

But we can't tell what her kinetic energy was as she crossed the finish line, beause we don't know what her speed was at that instant.

Answer: 1280 J

KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}  \\\\KE= \frac{1}{2} (10 kg)(16 m/s)^2\\=1280 J

A point on the string of a violin moves up and down in simple harmonic motion with an amplitude of 1.24 mm and frequency of 875
mario62 [17]

Using

V = Amplitude x angular frequency(omega)

But omega= 2πf

= 2πx875

=5498.5rad/s

So v= 1.25mm x 5498.5

= 6.82m/s

B. .Acceleration is omega² x radius= 104ms²

On a highway curve with a radius of 46 meters, the maximum force of static friction that can act on a 1,200 kg car going around
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

v\approx 16.956\,\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

The motion of the vehicule on a highway curve can be modelled by the following equation of equilibrium:

\Sigma F = f = m\cdot \frac{v^{2}}{R}

The maximum speed is:

v = \sqrt{\frac{f\cdot R}{m} }

v = \sqrt{\frac{(7500\,N)\cdot (46\,m)}{1200\,kg} }

v\approx 16.956\,\frac{m}{s}

This same experiment is performed on the international space station. What is the primary issue with performing this experiment
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

Difference in experimental data.

Explanation:

There is difference of experimental value between the experiment that is performed on the earth and on the international space station because presence of gravity. The result of the experiment on the earth is different due to the presence of gravity that contributes in the result of the experiment as compared to international space station where no gravity is present so there is high difference of the numerical value of the result of both experiments of earth and international space station.
