Answer:

Kinetic Energy

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is the energy an object has because of its motion. If we want to accelerate an object, then we must apply a force. ... Kinetic energy can be transferred between objects and transformed into other kinds of energy. For example, a flying squirrel might collide with a stationary chipmunk.

A group of students prepare for a robotic competition and build a robot that can launch large spheres of mass M in the horizonta

jeyben [28]

Answer:

$V_0$

Explanation:

Given that, the range covered by the sphere, $M$ , when released by the robot from the height, $H$ , with the horizontal speed $V_0$ is $D$ as shown in the figure.

The initial velocity in the vertical direction is $0$ .

Let $g$ be the acceleration due to gravity, which always acts vertically downwards, so, it will not change the horizontal direction of the speed, i.e. $V_0$ will remain constant throughout the projectile motion.

So, if the time of flight is $t$ , then

$D=V_0t\; \cdots (i)$

Now, from the equation of motion

$s=ut+\frac 1 2 at^2\;\cdots (ii)$

Where $s$ is the displacement is the direction of force, $u$ is the initial velocity, $a$ is the constant acceleration and $t$ is time.

Here, $s= -H, u=0,$ and $a=-g$ (negative sign is for taking the sigh convention positive in $+y$ direction as shown in the figure.)

So, from equation (ii),

$-H=0\times t +\frac 1 2 (-g)t^2$

$\Rightarrow H=\frac 1 2 gt^2$

$\Rightarrow t=\sqrt {\frac {2H}{g}}\;\cdots (iii)$

Similarly, for the launched height $2H$ , the new time of flight, $t'$ , is

$t'=\sqrt {\frac {4H}{g}}$

From equation (iii), we have

$\Rightarrow t'=\sqrt 2 t\;\cdots (iv)$

Now, the spheres may be launched at speed $V_0$ or $2V_0$ .

Let, the distance covered in the $x-$ direction be $D_1$ for $V_0$ and $D_2$ for $2V_0$ , we have

$D_1=V_0t'$

$D_1=V_0\times \sqrt 2 t$ [from equation (iv)]

$\Rightarrow D_1=\sqrt 2 D$ [from equation (i)]

$\Rightarrow D_1=1.41 D$ (approximately)

This is in the $3$ points range as given in the figure.

Similarly, $D_2=2V_0t'$

$D_2=2V_0\times \sqrt 2 t$ [from equation (iv)]

$\Rightarrow D_2=2\sqrt 2 D$ [from equation (i)]

$\Rightarrow D_2=2.82 D$ (approximately)

This is out of range, so there is no point for $2V_0$ .

Hence, students must choose the speed $V_0$ to launch the sphere to get the maximum number of points.

A 1000.0 kg truck accelerates from 20.0 m/s to 25.0 m/s over a distance of 300.0 m. What is the average net force on the truck?

choli [55]

Answer:

The average net force on the truck is 375 Newtons.

Explanation:

Using Newton's 3rd equation of motion, we have :

$v^{2} - u^{2} = 2$ ×a×s

where, v = final velocity = 25 m/s

u = initial velocity = 20 m/s

a = acceleration

s = distance traveled = 300 m

Using these values in the above equation, we get acceleration = 0.375 m/ $s^{2}$

Using Newton's second law, we have:

F=m×a

where m = mass = 1000 kg

a= acceleration = 0.375 m/ $s^{2}$

Putting values we have F=375 N

Which method determines the relative age of Earth's sedimentary layers based on their organization?

MrRa [10]

Answer:

Relative age-dating involves comparing a rock layer or rock structure with other near-by layers or structures. Using the principles of superposition and cross-cutting relationships, and structures such as unconformities, one can determine the order of geological events.
