We are given an object that is speeding up on a level ground.

Let's remember that the gravitational energy depends on the change in height, therefore, if the object is not changing its height it means that the gravitational energy remains constant.

The kinetic energy depends on the velocity. If the velocity is increasing this means that the kinetic energy is also increasing.

Now, every change in velocity requires acceleration and acceleration requires a force. The force and the distance that the object moves are equivalent to the work that is transferred to the object and therefore, the change in kinetic energy. This means that the total energy of the system increases as work is transferred to the mass.

We have that the total energy of the system increases in the form of kinetic energy and that the gravitational potential energy remains constant. Therefore, the diagrams should look like pie charts that grow but the area of the segment of the potential energy stays the same. It should look similar to the following.

A piece of metal has attained a velocity of 107.8 m/sec after fallinf for 10 seconds what is its initial velocity

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

7.8 m/s

Explanation:

Here object is falling with a gravitational acceleration there for we can take acceleration = 10 m/ s² and its constant through out the motion there for we can use motion equation

V = U + at

V - Final velocity

U - Initial velocity

a - acceleration

t - time

V=U+at

107.8=U + 10×10

= 7.8 m/s

The joule and the kilowatt-hour are both units of energy. 15 kw · h is equivalent to how many joules? answer in units of j.

choli [55]

The solution for the problem is:

1 Watt = 1 Joule per second
1 Watt*second = 1 Joule

a Kilowatt is 1,000 Watts
an hour is 60 seconds times 60 minutes or 3,600 seconds
a Kilowatt * hour is 1,000 Watts in 3,600 seconds

15 W*h = 15,000 Watt*hour = 15,000 Watt * 3,600 seconds = 54,000,000 Watt*second

54,000,000 Watt*second = ? Joules
54,000,000 Joules / second = 54,000,000 Watts

wolverine [178]

Answer:

An object is called a horizontal projectile if it is launched from a certain height with some initial horizontal velocity only. The initial vertical velocity of such an object is zero. But as the object falls through the atmosphere the horizontal component of velocity remains constant but vertical component increases due to gravitational acceleration.
