Answer:

80 meters high

Explanation:

The velocity of the balloon would be g*t (I won't calculate, but will us this later)

We know that the kinetic energy at the bottom equals the potential at the top.

KE = PE

1/2 * m * v^2 = m * g * h

1/2 * m * (g * t)^2 = m * g * h (substitution)

1/2 * m * g^2 * t^2 = m * g * h

1/2 * g * t^2 = h (simplification by dividing the commons between both sides)

h = 1/2 * 9.81 * 4^2

h = 78.48 m (roughly 80 m)

When the mass of the bottle is 0.125 kg, the KE is______ kg m2/s2.
DiKsa [7]
Answers are:
(1) KE = 1 kg m^2/s^2
(2) KE = 2 kg m^2/s^2
(3) KE = 3 kg m^2/s^2
(4) KE = 4 kg m^2/s^2


Explanation:

(1) Given mass = 0.125 kg
speed = 4 m/s

Since Kinetic energy = (1/2)*m*(v^2)

Plug in the values:
Hence:
KE = (1/2) * 0.125 * (16)
KE = 1 kg m^2/s^2

(2) Given mass = 0.250 kg
speed = 4 m/s

Since Kinetic energy = (1/2)*m*(v^2)

Plug in the values:
Hence:
KE = (1/2) * 0.250 * (16)
KE = 2 kg m^2/s^2

(3) Given mass = 0.375 kg
speed = 4 m/s

Since Kinetic energy = (1/2)*m*(v^2)

Plug in the values:
Hence:
KE = (1/2) * 0.375 * (16)
KE = 3 kg m^2/s^2

(4) Given mass = 0.500 kg
speed = 4 m/s

Since Kinetic energy = (1/2)*m*(v^2)

Plug in the values:
Hence:
KE = (1/2) * 0.5 * (16)
KE = 4 kg m^2/s^2

What distance is required for a train to stop if its initial velocity is 23 m/s and its
Varvara68 [4.7K]

-- The train starts at 23 m/s and slows down by 0.25 m/s every second.

So it'll take (23/0.25) = 92 seconds to stop.

-- Its average speed during that time will be (1/2)(23+0) = 11.5 m/s

-- Moving at an average speed of 11.5 m/s for 92 sec, the train will cover

(11.5 m/s) x (92 sec)  =  <em>1,058 meters</em> .
