Answer:

14.2 m

Explanation:

Using conservation of energy:

PE at top = KE at bottom

mgh = ½ mv²

h = v² / (2g)

h = (16.7 m/s)² / (2 × 9.8 m/s²)

h = 14.2 m

Using kinematics:

Given:

v₀ = 16.7 m/s

v = 0 m/s

a = -9.8 m/s²

Find: Δy

v² = v₀² + 2aΔy

(0 m/s)² = (16.7 m/s)² + 2 (-9.8 m/s²) Δy

Δy = 14.2 m

100.0 J of work accelerates a 0.500 kg hockey puck across an ice rink (a frictionless
Olegator [25]

Answer:

d. 100.0 J

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the theorem of work and energy conservation. This tells us that the mechanical energy in the final state is equal to the mechanical energy in the initial state plus the work done on a body. In this way we come to the following equation:

E₁ + W₁₋₂ = E₂

where:

E₁ = mechanical energy at state 1. [J] (units of Joules)

E₂ = mechanical energy at state 2. [J]

W₁₋₂ = work done from 1 to 2 [J]

We have to remember that mechanical energy is defined as the sum of potential energy plus kinetic energy.

The energy in the initial state is zero, since there is no movement of the hockey puck before imparting force. E₁ = 0.

The Work on the hockey puck is equal to:

W₁₋₂ = 100 [J]

100 = E₂

Since the ice rink  is horizontal there is no potential energy, there is only kinetic energy

Ek = 100 [J]

It can be said that the work applied on the hockey puck turns into kinetic energy

Which of the following statements is an accurate description of sound transmission through various mediums?
yaroslaw [1]

Answer: The accurate statement which describes the transmission of sound through various medium is D.

Explanation:

Sound is longitudinal wave in which the vibration of particles travels parallel to the propagation of the motion of the wave. It requires a medium to travel. It consists of compression and rarefaction.

Sound insulator prevents the sound to travel for example plastic, wood etc. Sound travels faster in solid medium than in liquid medium. Sound travels faster in liquid than in gas. Less elastic material absorbs sound for example paper in compare to inelastic material.

Therefore, the accurate statement which describes the transmission of sound through various medium is "Sound insulators prevent sound from being transmitted better than elastic solids.
