The kinetic energy of a moving object depends on its mass and its

Answer:

Velocity

Explanation:

Kinetic Energy of a body can be defined as the amount work needed to accelerate a body of  mass, m, from a position of rest to a particular velocity.

It is also the energy possessed by a body due to its motion.

Mathematically, it is given as:

KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

As seen from the formula, the Kinetic energy is dependent on the mass of the body, m, and the square of the velocity, v.

Typically, the mass of an object is a constant value, hence, the kinetic energy varies as velocity varies.

scoray [572]

Answer:

a) 31.4 m/s

b) 50.2 m

Explanation:

a) When an object is free falling, its speed is determined by the gravity force giving it acceleration. Equation for the velocity of free fall started from the rest is:

v = g • t

g - is gravitational acceleration which is 9.81 m/s^2, sometimes rounded to 10

t - is the time of free fall

So:

v = 9.81 m/s^2 • 3.2

v = 31.4 m/s ( if g is rounded to 10, then the velocity is 10 • 3.2 = 32 m/s)

b) To determine the distance crossed in free fall we use the equation:

s = v0 + gt^2/2

v0 - is the starting velocity (since object started fall from rest, its v0 is 0)

s = gt^2/2

s = 9.81 m/s^2 • 3.2^2 / 2

s = 50.2 m (if we round g to 10 then the distance is 10 • 3.2^2/2 = 51.2 meters)

andrew11 [14]

Answer:

The magnitude of the velocity of glider B is 0.2m/s and the direction is the negative direction  

Explanation:

Inelastic Collision

Given data

mass of glider A m1= 0.125kg

initial velocity u1=0

final velocity v1= 0.600 m/s

mass of glider B m2= 0.375kg

initial velocity u2=0

final velocity v2=?

We know that the expression for the conservation of momentum is given as

m1u1+m2u2=m1v1+m2v2

since u1=u2=u=0m/s

u(m1+m2)=m1v1+m2v2

substituting we have

0(0.125+0.0375)=0.125*0.6+0.375*v2

0=0.075+0.375v2

0.375v2=-0.075

v2=-0.075/0.375

v2=-0.2m/s

 The magnitude of the velocity of glider B is 0.2m/s and the direction is the negative direction
