Calculate the total energy of 4.0 kg object moving horizontally at 20 m/s 50 meters above the surface.

Physics
1 answer:
Serhud [2]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Correct answer:  E total = 2,800 J

Explanation:

Given:

m = 4 kg   the mass of the object

V = 20 m/s  the speed (velocity) of the object

H = 50 m the height of the object above the surface

E total = ? J

The total energy of an object is equal to the sum of potential and kinetic energy

E total = Ep + Ek

Ep = m g H   we take g = 10 m/s²

Ep = 4 · 10 · 50 = 2,000 J

Ek = m V² / 2

Ek = 4 · 20² / 2 = 2 · 400 = 800 J

E total = 2,000 + 800 = 2,800 J

E total = 2,800 J

What is Newton's Law
r-ruslan [8.4K]
I hope you are referring to Newton's Laws of Motion by "Newton's Law".

There are three laws quoted by the great physicist of all time Sir Isaac Newton.

These laws are the building-blocks of the field of the Physics known as Classical Physics or Classical Mechanics.

Law 1. If no force applied externally, then a body in rest will always be in rest and a body in motion will continue to move in a straight line with a uniform velocity.

Law 2. The rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to the force applied and the direction of motion is always in the direction of the force applied.

Law 3. Every action has an equal and opposite reaction.

The Law 1 is also called the law of Inertia.

From the 2nd law, we can derive the equation of force, that is F =m.a (m = mass; a = acceleration)

To dry the brakes, drive slowly in __________ and apply light pressure on your brake pedal.
ira [324]
<span>The answer is low gear. To dry the brakes of a vehicle, one must driv slowly in low gear and apply light pressure on the vehicle's brake pedal. Dry brakes are less expensive and are cheap when it needs replacement, yet under pressure they may cause more damage to the system than wet brakes, which are better in terms of emergency.</span>

Mercury was named after the roman god of speed why is it an appropriate name for the planet
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]
Because it's the planet in our solar system with the shortest,
fastest orbit around the sun ... only 88 Earth days.

The people who named it didn't know that ... they still thought that
the sun and all the planets revolve around the Earth.  But they did
see it zip from one side of the sun to the other, faster than any other
planet ... the result of having the shortest, fastest orbit of any planet.
