Answer:  91.4 J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a body due to virtue of its motion.

K.E. = 0.5 m v²

Mass of the continent is given, m = 1.819 × 10²¹ kg

Side of the block of continent, s = 4150 km = 4150000 m

Depth of the block of continent, d = 38 km = 38000 m

(Mass = density × volume

m = 2780 kg/m³× (4150 × 10³ m)²× 38 × 10³ m = 1.819 × 10²¹ kg)

The continent is moving at the rate of, v = 1 cm /year = 0.01 m / 31556926 s = 3.17 × 10⁻¹⁰ m/s

⇒ K.E. = 0.5 × 1.819 × 10²¹ kg × (3.17 × 10⁻¹⁰ m/s)²= 91.4 J

Hence, mass of the continent has 91.4 J of kinetic energy.

a 0.15 kg baseball has a momentum of 0.78 kg*m/s just before it lands on the ground. What was the ball's speed just before landi
vovangra [49]

5.2m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of baseball = 0.15kg

Momentum of baseball = 0.78kgm/s

Unknown:

Speed of baseball = ?

Solution:

The momentum of the baseball is a function of the product of the mass and velocity. It is a vector quantity:

        Momentum = mass x velocity

 Since the speed of the ball is unknown:

           Velocity  =  \frac{momentum }{mass}

                           = \frac{0.78}{0.15}

                           = 5.2m/s

The speed of the baseball before it lands is 5.2m/s

A disk, initially rotating at 130 rad/s, is slowed down with a constant angular acceleration of magnitude 3.0 rad/s2.(a) How muc
Art [367]

Answer

given,

initially rotating speed = 130 rad/s

final rotating speed = 0 rad/s

constant acceleration = 3 rad/s²

a)  using equation of rotating acceleration

   \omega_f = \omega_i + \alpha t

   0 = 130 - 3 \times t

    3 t = 130    

 t = 43.33 s

time does the disk take to stop is equal to 43.33 s

b) again using equation of rotation

    \theta = \omega_i t + \dfrac{1}{2}\alpha t^2

    \theta = 130\times 43.33 - \dfrac{1}{2}\times 3 \times 43.33^2

    \theta = 2817 rad

angle does the disk rotate during that time is equal to 2817 rad

why do a circulatory system is important in meeting the needs of all cells throughout an animals body
valentinak56 [21]
The circulatory system is important in meeting the needs of all cells in the body because it offers means of transport by which cells obtain the materials needed to live and function. The functions of the circulatory system by which the cells are supported include: 1. Respiration- oxygen is delivered to the cells and carbon dioxide is removed from them. 2. Nutrition- nutrients for energy are supplied to every cell in the body. 3. Waste removal- metabolic waste products are taken away before they accumulate and become harmful to the cells. 4. Cellular communication- hormones are transported to the cells and organs that need them for proper functioning. 5.Thermoregulation- As blood circulates, it keeps body temperature balanced and thus cells are able to carry out processes well.

A uniform rod of mass 2.30 kg and length 2.00 m is capable of rotating about an axis passing through its center and perpendicula
melomori [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Moment of inertia of the rod = 1/12 m L²

m is mass of the rod and L is its length

= 1/2 x 2.3 x 2 x 2

= 4.6 kg m²

Moment of inertia of masses attached with the rod

= m₁ d² + m₂ d²

m₁ and m₂ are masses attached , and d is their distance from the axis of rotation

= 5.3 x 1² + 3.5 x 1²

= 8.8 kg m²

Total moment of inertia = 13.4 kg m²

B )

Rotational kinetic energy = 1/2 I ω²

I is total moment of inertia and ω is angular velocity

= .5 x 13.4 x 2²

= 26.8 J .

C )

when mass of rod is negligible , moment of inertia will be due to masses only

Total moment of inertia of masses

= 8.8 kg m²

D )

kinetic energy of the system

= .5 x 8.8 x 2²

= 17.6 J .
