A brick lies perilously close to the edge of the flat roof of a building. The roof edge is 50 ft above street level, and the bri

ck has 560.0 J of potential energy with respect to street level. Someone edges the brick off the roof, and it begins to fall. What is the brick's kinetic energy when it is 35 ft above street level?

Hey there!:

The potential energy is U =  m*g*h

Substitute 560.0 J for U = m*g*h so,  560.0 = m*g*h

g = 9.8 m/s²

50 ft in meters :

1 ft = 0.3048 m

50 ft = 50 * 0.3048 => 15.24 m

m = 560.0 / g*h

m = 560.0 / 9.8 * 15.24

m = 560.0 / 149.352

m = 3.74 kg

35 ft in m : 35 * 0.3048 => 10.668 m

The change initial  in potencial energy from point A to B is:

mg ( h1 - h2 ) = 3.74* ( 9.8 )* (15.24 - 10.668 )

=>  36.652 * ( 15.24 - 10.688 ) =

36.652 * 4.552 => 167.57 J

According to the conservation of energy

The change in potencial energy should be equal to the change in kinetic energy , so the , the change in kinetic energy is :

ΔK = 167.57 J


Hope that helps!

I think I would agree on horses, just because you can take them for lessons, ride them treat them like a pet. Donkeys you can’t ride but you can have as a pet. Horses you can make money off, like races, but aren’t influenced. You can rent out horses to people that don’t have anywhere to place them.

Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

Explanation:

This type of experiment was carried out in 1960s on rodents, it was partially successful but was perceived impractical and dangerous for humans,it is possible theoretically.

Oxygen is broken down or dissolves in a thin film of fluid in the alveoli, surprisingly in normal breathing liquid composed of dissolved oxygen is involved. Evidently respiratory gas must be able to dissolve in this liquid and in concentration required to keep the partial pressure necessary to power diffusion.

Answer:

2.74 M

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of sodium chloride = 80.0 g

Volume of water = 500.0 mL

Molarity of solution = ?

Solution:

Molarity is used to describe the concentration of solution. It tells how many moles are dissolve in per litter of solution.

Formula:

Molarity = number of moles of solute / L of solution

Now we will convert the mL into L.

500.0 mL× 1 L /1000 mL =  0.5 L

In next step we will calculate the number of moles of sodium chloride.

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 80.0 g/ 58.4 g/mol

Number of moles = 1.37 mol

Molarity:

M =  1.37 mol/ 0.5 L

M =  2.74 M
