In physics, the kinetic energy of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion. It is defined as the work needed to accelerate a body of a given mass from rest to its stated velocity. Having gained this energy during its acceleration, the body maintains this kinetic energy unless its speed changes. The same amount of work is done by the body when decelerating from its current speed to a state of rest.
Formula for terminal
velocity is:
Vt = √(2mg/ρACd)
<span>Vt = terminal velocity = ?
<span>m = mass of the falling object = 72 kg
<span>g = gravitational acceleration = 9.81 m/s^2
<span>Cd = drag coefficient = 0.80
<span>ρ = density of the fluid/gas = 1.2 kg/m^3</span>
<span>A = projected area of the object (feet first) = 0.21 m * 0.41
m = 0.0861 m^2
Therefore:</span></span></span></span></span>
Vt = √(2 * 72
* 9.81 / 1.2 * 0.0861 * 0.80)
<span>Vt = 130.73 m/s</span>
Answer:
When does the radioactive decay of a radioisotope stop? Give one example. An unstable isotope continues the decay process until it reaches a stable form. One example is the decay of carbon-14 to nitrogen-14.
Explanation:
Answer:
Speed, mass and acceleration
Explanation:
A scalar quantity is a quantity that has only magnitude but no direction while a vector quantity has both magnitude and direction.
According to the question, the row that has two scalars and one vector is speed, mass and acceleration.
The two scalars in this row are speed and mass while the vector quantity there is the acceleration.
Acceleration has direction since it possess direction. A body accelerating will do so in a particular direction. Speed and mass doesn't possess any direction. Mass only specify the magnitude of the body but no clue as to which direction is the body moving towards.
Speed also only specify the
total distance covered with respect to time but not the direction of the direction.
