4. Jimmy dropped a 10 kg bowling ball from a building that is 25 meters high.
KIM [24]

Answer:

The K.E of the bowling ball right before it hits the ground, K.E = 2450 J            

Explanation:

Given data,

The mass of the bowling ball, m = 10 kg

The height of the building, h = 25 m

The total mechanical energy of the body is given by,

                                     E = P.E + K.E

At height 'h' the P.E is maximum and the K.E is zero,

According to the law of conservation of energy, the K.E at the ground before hitting the ground is equal to the P.E at 'h'

Therefore, P.E at 'h'

                                  P.E = mgh

                                         = 10 x 9.8 x 25

                                         =  2450 J

Hence, the K.E of the bowling ball right before it hits the ground, K.E = 2450 J

A small charged bead has a mass of 1.0 g. It is held in a uniform electric field of magnitude E = 200,000 N/C, directed upward.
Art [367]

Answer:

10^-7 C

Explanation:

m = 1 g = 10^-3 kg, E = 200,000 N/C, a = 20 m/s^2, u = 0

Let q be the charge on bead

Force = m a = q E

a = q E / m

q = m a / E = (10^-3 x 20) / 200000 = 10^-7 C

Una mujer de 65 kg, se balancea sobre uno de los tacones de sus zapatos. Si el tacón es circular con un radio de 0,5 cm, ¿qué pr
goldenfox [79]
Explicacion

m = 65 kg

g = 10 m/s²

r = 0.5 cm (1m / 100 cm) = 0.05 m

A = π r² = π (0.05 m)² = 0.00785 m²

F =W = m g = 65 kg(10 m/s²) = 650 N

P = F/A = 650 N / 0.00785 m² = 82802.54 N/m²
