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

Two long, straight parallel wires 8.2 cm apart carry currents of equal magnitude I. The parallel wires repel each other with a f
o-na [289]

Answer:

36.22 mA

Explanation:

i1 = I , i2 = I, d = 8.2 cm = 0.082 m

Force per unit length = 3.2 nN/m = 3.2 x 10^-9 N/m

μo = 4 π × 10^-7 Tm/A

The formula for the force per unit length between the two wires is given by

F = μo / 4π x (2 i1 x i2) / d

3.2 x 10^-9 = 10^-7 x 2 x I^2 / 0.082

I = 0.0362 A = 36.22 mA

Consider a solid metal sphere (S) a few centimeters in diameter and a feather (F). For each quantity in the list that follows, i
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

A) Gravitational Force is greater in S.

B) Time taken to fall a given distance in air will be greater for F.

C) Both will take same time to fall in a vacuum.

D) Total force is greater in S.

Explanation:

(a) In this case, the gravitational force of S will be greater, because Newton's Second Law states that - F = ma, or weight =mg. g is constant. And mass of the solid metal is heavier.

(b) In this case, the time it will take for F to fall from a given distance in air will be greater than that of S, since the air resistance is not negligible (as in the case of S).

(c) In this, It will take same time for S and F because in a vacuum, there are no air particles, so there is no air resistance and gravity is the only force acting and so objects fall at the same rate in a vacuum.

(d) The total force will be greater in S than F because Force=ma and S is of heavier mass than F.

Two cars collide and come to a complete stop. where did all of their energy go?
MA_775_DIABLO [31]
Most of the energy will be absorbed by the materials that make up the cars, causing them to deform. The energy will also be converted into sound energy, causing a loud bang upon collision. Also, some energy will be converted to thermal energy, which will cause the cars to heat up slightly.

If the pendulum took longer to complete one oscillation, how would the graph change?
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

took longer to complete one oscillation, that means its PERIOD increased, and the distance between the peaks of the graph would be longer.

line would be less. the period of oscillation would have any effect on the graph
