Answer:

an explanation on how the natural world works

Explanation:

A scientific theory is simply an explanation into how the natural world works. Scientific theory is formulated after a series of hypothesis that has ascertained how true an observation is.

A theory is provides explanation into an observed feature. It can be disproved when new evidences are found. This brings about revision into scientific proofs.

How does kinetic energy affect the stopping distance of a small vehicle compared to a large vehicle?
Zarrin [17]
<span>The kinetic energy is the work done by the object due to its motion. It is represented by the formula of the half the velocity squared multiply by the mass of the object. In this problem, you have two  vehicles, the other one is large and the other one is small. Let us assume that they travel with the same velocity. Note that the kinetic energy is proportional to the mass of the object. So when you increase the mass of the other, it also increases the kinetic energy of that object. The same holds true for the two vehicles. The larger the vehicle, its kinetic energy is also large and therefore its stopping distance will be longer than that of the smaller vehicle.</span>

A student wants to determine the impulse delivered to the lab cart when it runs into the wall. The student measures the mass of
WINSTONCH [101]

The correct answer to the question is : A) The velocity of the cart after it hits the wall.

EXPLANATION:

Before answering this question, first we have to understand impulse.

Impulse of a body is defined as the change in momentum or the product of force with time.

Mathematically impulse = m ( v- u ).

Here, v is the final momentum and u is the initial momentum.

Hence, we need the velocity of the cart after it hits the wall in order to calculate the impulse of the lab cart.

You're carrying a 3.0-m-long, 24 kg pole to a construction site when you decide to stop for a rest. You place one end of the pol
kozerog [31]

Answer:

F=133N

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Length l=3.0m

Mass m=24kg

Distance from Tip d=35cm

Generally, the equation for Torque Balance is mathematically given by

mg(l/2)=F(l-d)

2*9.81(3/2)=F(3-35*10^-2)

Therefore

F=133N

Calculate the kinetic energy in joules of an automobile weighing 2135 lb and traveling at 55 mph. (1 mile = 1.6093 km, 1 lb = 45
victus00 [196]
<span>Let's convert the speed to m/s: speed = (55 mph) (1609.3 m / mile) (1 hour / 3600 seconds) speed = 24.59 m/s Let's convert the mass to kilograms: mass = (2135 lb) (0.45359 kg / lb) mass = 968.4 kg We can find the kinetic energy KE: KE = (1/2) m v^2 KE = (1/2) (968.4 kg) (24.59 m/s)^2 KE = 292780 joules The kinetic energy of the automobile is 292780 joules.</span>

4. A rock is thrown from the edge of the top of a 100 m tall building at some unknown angle above the horizontal. The rock strik
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the velocity of projectile be v and angle of throw be θ.

The projectile takes 5 s to touch the ground during which period it falls vertically by 100 m

considering its vertical displacement

h = - ut +1/2 g t²

100 = - vsinθ x 5 + .5 x 9.8 x 5²

5vsinθ =  222.5

vsinθ = 44.5

It covers 160 horizontally in 5 s

vcosθ x 5 = 160

v cosθ = 32

squaring and adding

v²sin²θ +v² cos²θ = 44.4² + 32²

v² = 1971.36 + 1024

v = 54.73 m /s
