1. What is the velocity of an 250-kg that has 6,250 J of energy?<br><br><br> Please help
leonid [27]

Explanation:

KE = 1/2mv^2

6,250 J =1/2(250kg) v ^2

<u>6250 J </u>= <u>125kgv^2</u>

125kg. 125kg

v =

Imagine a box sitting on a shelf. What forces are acting on the box?
romanna [79]

In case of an object sitting at rest on another base, there are two equal and opposite forces – Normal force and the gravity.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation: </u>

When an object is placed at rest position on another object, there is a force exerted by the surfaces of the two contact objects. This force is denoted as Normal Force.

When an object such as a box is placed on a shelf, its surface exerts a contact force on the base of the shelf- The Normal force directed upward. Meanwhile, the gravity stays at its action and tries to pull the box towards itself.  

Both of these forces however are equal and opposite and therefore, there is zero net force on the box. That's why it remains at rest, holding on Newton's third law.

The Earth revolves around the Sun once a year at an average distance of 1.50×1011m. Find the orbital radius that corresponds to
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

9.4\cdot 10^{10} m

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using Kepler's third law, which states that the ratio between the cube of the orbital radius and the square of the orbital period is constant for every object orbiting the Sun. So we can write

\frac{r_a^3}{T_a^2}=\frac{r_e^3}{T_e^2}

where

r_o is the distance of the new object from the sun (orbital radius)

T_o=180 d is the orbital period of the object

r_e = 1.50\cdot 10^{11} m is the orbital radius of the Earth

T_e=365 d is the orbital period the Earth

Solving the equation for r_o, we find

r_o = \sqrt[3]{\frac{r_e^3}{T_e^2}T_o^2} =\sqrt[3]{\frac{(1.50\cdot 10^{11}m)^3}{(365 d)^2}(180 d)^2}=9.4\cdot 10^{10} m

A 25 kg ball is thrown into the air when thrown it's going 10 m/s calculate how high it travels
Diano4ka-milaya [45]
On Earth, the acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s² downward.
So any object with only gravity acting on it gains 9.8 m/s of
downward speed every second.

If the rock starts out moving upward at 10 m/s, then it will
continue upward for only  (10/9.8) = 1.02 second, before
it stops rising and starts falling.

Its average speed during that time is  (1/2) (10 + 0) = 5 m/s .

At an average speed of 5 m/s for 1.02 sec,
the rock rises

                   (5 m/s) x (1.02 sec)  =  5.102 meters .

A student attempted to measure the specific latent heat of vaporisation of water.
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

The latent heat of vaporization of water is 2.4 kJ/g

Explanation:

The given readings are;

The first (mass) balance reading (of the water) in grams, m₁ = 581 g

The second (mass) balance reading (of the water) in grams, m₂ = 526 g

The first joulemeter reading in kilojoules (kJ), Q₁ = 195 kJ

The second joulemeter reading in kilojoules (kJ), Q₂ = 327 kJ

The latent heat of vaporization = The heat required to evaporate a given mass water at constant temperature

Based on the measurements, we have;

The latent heat of vaporization = ΔQ/Δm

∴ The latent heat of vaporization of water = (327 kJ - 195 kJ)/(581 g - 526 g) = 2.4 kJ/g

The latent heat of vaporization of water = 2.4 kJ/g
