Answer:

Hewo Otaku Kun Here! (UwU)

Explanation:

1. A rock sitting at the edge of a cliff has potential energy. If the rock falls, the potential energy will be converted to kinetic energy.

2. Tree branches high up in a tree have potential energy because they can fall to the ground.

3. A stick of dynamite has chemical potential energy that would be released when the activation energy from the fuse comes into contact with the chemicals.

4. The food we eat has chemical potential energy because as our body digests it, it provides us with energy for basic metabolism.

5. A stretched spring in a pinball machine has elastic potential energy and can move the steel ball when released.

6. When a crane swings a wrecking ball up to a certain height, it gains more potential energy and has the ability to crash through buildings.

7. A set of double "A" batteries in a remote control car possess chemical potential energy which can supply electricity to run the car.

happy to help!

From the edge of a cliff, a 0.46 kg projectile is launched with an initial kinetic energy of 1430 J. The projectile's maximum up

wel

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of Projectile(m)=0.46 kg

Initial Kinetic Energy=1430 J

Maximum upward displacement from Launch point=150 m

$K.E.=\frac{mv^2}{2}$

$1430\times 2=0.46\times v^2$

v=78.85 m/s

and $H_{max}=\frac{v^2\sin ^2\theta }{2g}$

$150=\frac{(78.85)^2\sin ^2\theta }{2\times 9.8}$

$\sin \theta =0.687$

$\theta =43.39^{\circ}$

initial horizontal velocity $(v_x)=v\cos \theta$

$v_x=78.84\times \cos (43.39)=57.29 m/s$

Initial vertical velocity $(v_y)=v\sin \theta$

$v_y=78.85\times \sin (43.39)$

$v_y=54.16 m/s$

(c)vertical velocity at any instant=65 m/s

Since initial vertical velocity is 54.16 m/s

so 65 m/s will be acquired when projectile started falling below cliff

$v^2-u^2=2 a s$

$65^2-54.16^2=2\times 9.8\times s$

$s=65.90 m$

A projectile is launched at an angle above the

gtnhenbr [62]

The first rule of vectors is that the horizontal and vertical components are separate. Disregarding air resistance, the only thing we have to worry about is gravity.

The appropriate suvat to use for the vertical component is v = u +at
I will take a to be -9.81, you may have to change it to be 10 if your qualification likes g to be 10.

v = 30 + (-9.81x2)
v = 30 - 19.62
=10.38m/s

Therefore we know that after 2.0 s the vertical component will be 10.38ms^-1, ie 10m/s as the answers given are all to 2sf.

The horizontal component is completely separate to the vertical component and since there is no air resistance, it will remain constant throughout the projectiles trajectory. Therefore it will remain at 40ms^-1.

Combining this together we get:
(1) vx=40m/s and vy=10m/s

An arrow movirg 48.3 m/s has 5.22 kg•m/s of momentum. What is its mass?

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

0.11 kg

Explanation:

Ft = MV

Ft = momentum 5.22kg m/s

M = mass

V = velocity 48.3m/s

Therefore

5.22 = M x 48.3

Divide both sides by 48.3

5.22/48.3 = M x 48.3/48.3

0.11 = M

M = 0.11kg
