Answer: 477W

Explanation:

Given the following :

Mass (m) = 7.3kg

Initial Velocity (u) = 0

Final velocity (v) = 14m/s

time (t) = 1.5s

Power = workdone (W) / time (t)

The workdone can be calculated as the change in kinetic energy (KE) :

Recall ;

KE = 0.5mv^2

Therefore, change in KE is given by:

0.5mv^2 - 0.5mu^2

Change in KE = 0.5(7.3)(14^2) - 0.5(7.3)(0^2)

Change in KE = 715.4J

Therefore ;

Average power = Workdone / time

Workdone = change in KE = 715.4N

Average power = 715.4 / 1.5

Average power = 476.93333 W

= 477W

The rubber band contains .......potential energy as it is stretched.
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

elastic potential energy

You input potential (stored) energy into the rubber band system when you stretched the rubber band back. Because it is an elastic system, this kind of potential energy is specifically called elastic potential energy.

How do you find launch velocity only with time and distance
Annette [7]
To find initial velocity, start by multiplying the acceleration by the time. Then, divide that number by 2 and write down the quotient you get. Next, divide the distance by the time and write down that quotient as well. Finally, subtract your first quotient from your second quotient to find the initial velocity.
