A pendulum has 711 J of potential energy at the highest point of its swing. How much kinetic energy will it have at the bottom o
Anika [276]
According to law of conservation of energy, 
<span>Energy can neither be constructed nor be destroyed but can be transformed from one form to another.
</span>
<span>At the highest point of the pendulum(point b), pendulum is associated with potential energy only and no kinetic energy.
</span><span>Therefore total energy at point b = potential energy = 711 J.... i
</span>
<span>At the bottom most point(point a), pendulum is associated only with kinetic energy and no potential energy.
</span>Therefore total energy at point a = kinetic energy ---- ii
<span>From i and ii,
</span>Kinetic energy = potential energy = 711 J.(Conserving energy)

Hence kinetic energy at the bottom most point is 711 J.
Hope this helps!!

A flute plays a note with a frequency of 266 Hz. What is the speed of sound if the wavelength is 1.3 m?
hjlf

Wave speed  =  (frequency)  x  (wavelength)

                       =  (266 /sec)  x  (1.3 meters)

                       =     345.8 meters/sec

8. While taking a measurement, Ajay put the 2nd mark of the scale to the edge of the line and the mark that pointed to the end o
Leni [432]

Answer:

The length of line is 78 cm or 0.78 m.

Explanation:

initial reading 2 mark

final reading 80 cm

The length of the line

= final reading - initial reading

= 80 - 2

= 78 cm

1 cm = 0.01  m

So, 78 cm = 0.78 m

A 65-kg ice skater stands facing a wall with his arms bent and then pushes away from the wall by straightening his arms. At the
Marrrta [24]

Our values can be defined like this,

m = 65kg

v = 3.5m / s

d = 0.55m

The problem can be solved for part A, through the Work Theorem that says the following,

W = \Delta KE

Where

KE = Kinetic energy,

Given things like that and replacing we have that the work is given by

W = Fd

and kinetic energy by

\frac {1} {2} mv ^ 2

So,

Fd = \frac {1} {2} m ^ 2

Clearing F,

F = \frac {mv ^ 2} {2d}

Replacing the values

F = \frac {(65) (3.5)} {2 * 0.55}

F = 723.9N

B) The work done by the wall is zero since there was no displacement of the wall, that is d = 0.
