A small child gives a plastic frog a big push at the bottom of a slippery 2.0 meter long, 1.0 meter high ramp, starting it with

a speed of 5.0 m/s. What is the frog's speed as it flies off the top of the ramp?

Refer to the diagram shown below.

Because the ramp is slippery, ignore dynamic friction.
Let m =  the mass of the frog.
g = 9.8 m/s²

The KE (kinetic energy) at the bottom of the ramp is
KE₁ = (1/2)*(m kg)*(5 m/s)² = 12.5 m J

Let v =  the velocity at the top of the ramp.
The KE at the top of the ramp is
KE₂ = (1/2)*m*v²= 0.5 mv² J
The PE (potential energy) at the top of the ramp relative to the bottom is
PE₂ = (m kg)*(9.8 m/s²)*(1 m) = 9.8m J

Conservation of energy requires that
KE₁ = KE₂ + PE₂
12.5m = 0.5mv² + 9.8m
0.5v² = 2.7
v = 2.324 m/s

Answer: 2.324 m/s

A disc is thrown through the air for 1.5 min with a power output of 12.5 W. How much work is done when throwing the disc?
klasskru [66]

Answer:

work = 1125 [J]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must remember the definition of power, which is defined as the relationship between work and time. The power can be calculated using the following equation:

Power = work/time

Power = 12.5 [w]

work = joules [J]

time = 1.5 [min] = 90 [s]

work = 12.5*90

work = 1125 [J]

Verdich [7]

Answer:

The radius of the earth is 6,371 km.

The average Earth-Sun distance is 152.09 million km

How many Earths would fit between Earth and the Sun if they are separated by their average distance? Approximately 11,936 Earths.

I didn't really understand the last part, but if you don't get a better answer please mark me as brainliest.
