What is the student's kinetic energy at the bottom of the hill if he is moving

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

KE = 10530 J or 10.53 KJ

Explanation:

The formula for kinetic energy is KE = 1/2 mv^2

Let's apply the formula:

KE = 1/2 mv^2

KE = 1/2 (65kg) (18m/s)^2

KE = 10530 J or 10.53 KJ

Eating an orange enables a person to perform about 3.5x10^4 J of work. To what height does eating and orange enable a 55kg woman

crimeas [40]

Joules is a unit for work which may decomposed into N.m. Work is a quantity which is a product of force (in this case, the woman's weight) and the distance she has traveled.

W = F x d ; d = W / F

Substituting the given,

d = (3.5 x 10^4 J) / (55 kg x 9.8 m/s²) = 64.94 m

Thus, the woman can climb up to 64.94 meters.

faust18 [17]

Answer:

Frequency required will be 2421.127 kHz

Explanation:

We have given inductance $L=0.450H=0.45\times 10^{-3}H$

Current in the inductor $i=1.90mA=1.90\times 10^{-3}A$

Voltage v = 13 volt

Inductive reactance of the circuit $X_l=\frac{v}{i}$

$X_l=\frac{13}{1.9\times 10^{-3}}=6842.10ohm$

We know that

$X_l=\omega L=2\pi fL$

$2\times 3.14\times f\times 0.45\times 10^{-3}=6842.10$

f = 2421.127 kHz

To solve this problem we will apply the concept of centripetal acceleration. This type of acceleration is described as the product between the square of the angular velocity and the turning radius. Mathematically the expression can be expressed as
