<span>Acceleration is the change in velocity divided by time.
We can find acceleration a, by the following formula

a=v-u/t

where,
v is the final velocity (in this question v=8.0 m/s)
u is the initial velocity (since the hamster starts from rest, u=0)
t is the time taken (i,e 3.0 second)
now by applying the formula we have,

a = 8.0 - 0 / 3
= 8 / 3
= 2.65 m/s</span>²<span> 

The acceleration is 2.65 meters per second squared</span>

What is the kinetic energy of a 9.0 kg steelhead if its speed is 16 m/s?
Vesnalui [34]

<u>We are given:</u>

Mass of the Steelhead(m) = 9 kg

Velocity of the Steelhead(v) = 16 m/s

<u>Calculating the Kinetic Energy:</u>

KE = 1/2mv²

replacing the variables

KE = 1/2 * 9 * (16)²

KE = 1152 Joules

3-m-high large tank is initially filled with water. The tank water surface is open to the atmosphere, and a sharp-edged 10-cm-diameter orifice at the bottom drains to the atmosphere through a horizontal 80-m-long pipe. If the total irreversible head loss of the system is determined to be 1.5 m, determine the initial velocity of the water from the tank. Disregard the effect of the kinetic energy correction factors.

Does anyone know how to solve this?
kompoz [17]

Answer:

110 m

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram of the car.  The car has three forces acting on it: normal force up, weight down, and friction to the left.

Sum of the forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

N − mg = 0

N = mg

Sum of the forces in the x direction:

∑F = ma

-F = ma

-Nμ = ma

Substitute:

-mgμ = ma

-gμ = a

Given μ = 0.40:

a = -(9.8 m/s²) (0.40)

a = -3.92 m/s²

Given that v₀ = 30 m/s and v = 0 m/s:

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

(0 m/s)² = (30 m/s)² + 2 (-3.9s m/s²) Δx

Δx ≈ 110 m
