Newton's first law of motion states that. an object on the rest or motion is stay the same unless external force applied on it.

A object at rest will stay at rest and a object in motion will stay in motion unless acted upon by a external force. Hope this helps

Answer:

$1.26

Explanation:

Power =energy/ time

energy =powerxtime

energy =50x31x24=37200

=37.2kwh

1kwh =3.39

37.2kwh=3.39x37.2=126.108cent

the kinetic energy of an object of mass in moving with a velocity of 5 MS -1 is 25j what will be its kinetic energy when its vel

MAXImum [283]

Answer:

<em>When the speed is doubled, K = 100 J, when the speed is tripled, K = 225 J</em>

Explanation:

<u>Kinetic Energy </u>

Is the type of energy an object has due to its speed. It's proportional to the square of the speed.

The equation for the kinetic energy is:

$\displaystyle K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

Where:

m = mass of the object

v = speed at which the object moves

The kinetic energy is expressed in Joules (J)

The object has a kinetic energy of K=25 J when moving at v=5 m/s, thus the mass can be calculated by solving for m:

$\displaystyle m=\frac{2K}{v^2}$

$\displaystyle m=\frac{2*25}{5^2}=2$

m = 2 Kg

If the speed is doubled, v=10 m/s, the new kinetic energy is:

$\displaystyle K=\frac{1}{2}2\cdot 10^2$

K = 100 J

If the speed is tripled, v=15 m/s, the new kinetic energy is:

$\displaystyle K=\frac{1}{2}2\cdot 15^2$

K = 225 J

When the speed is doubled, K = 100 J, when the speed is tripled, K = 225 J

The outer layer of cable on a cable reel is 16.2 cm from the center of the reel. The reel is initially stationary and can rotate

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

B. w=12.68rad/s

C. α=3.52rad/s^2

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by taking into account that (as in the uniformly accelerated motion)

$\theta=\omega_{0}t+\frac{1}{2}\alpha t^{2}\\\theta = \frac{s}{r}$ ( 1 )

where w0 is the initial angular speed, α is the angular acceleration, s is the arc length and r is the radius.

In this case s=3.7m, r=16.2cm=0.162m, t=3.6s and w0=0. Hence, by using the equations (1) we have

$\theta=\frac{3.7m}{0.162m}=22.83rad$

$22.83rad=\frac{1}{2}\alpha (3.6s)^2\\\\\alpha=2\frac{(22.83rad)}{3.6^2s}=3.52\frac{rad}{s^2}$

to calculate the angular speed w we can use $\alpha=\frac{\omega _{f}-\omega _{i}}{t _{f}-t _{i}}\\\\\omega_{f}=\alpha t_{f}=(3.52\frac{rad}{s^2})(3.6)=12.68\frac{rad}{s}$

Thus, wf=12.68rad/s

C) We can use our result in B)

$\alpha=3.52\frac{rad}{s^2}$

I hope this is useful for you
