an object weighting 100g is thrown upwards from the ground at a speed of 100 m/s.where will the potential energy of the object b

Kay [80]

Answer:

333.3 m

Explanation:

Given

$m =100g\ =\ 0.1kg\\v = 100 m/s\\g = 10 m/s ^2$

Potential energy = $\frac{2}{3}\ of\ Kinetic\ energy$ ......Equation(1)

We know that

Potential energy=mgh

Kinetic energy = $\frac{1}{2} mv^{2}$

Now From the Equation(1)

$mgh=\frac{2}{3}*\frac{1}{2} mv^{2}\\ gh=\frac{v^{2} }{3} \\10 * h=\ \frac{10000}{3}\\ h=\ \frac{1000}{3} \\h=333.3\ m$

A shell is fired at an angle of 35° above the horizontal at a velocity of 40 m/s. (a) What is it's speed at the highest point of

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

Part a)

$v_f = v_x = 32.77 m/s$

Part b)

T = 4.68 s

Explanation:

Part a)

Shell is fired at speed of 40 m/s at angle of 35 degree

so here we have

$v_x = 40 cos35 = 32.77 m/s$

$v_y = 40 sin35 = 22.94 m/s$

since gravity act opposite to vertical speed of the shell so at the highest point of its trajectory the vertical component of the speed will become zero

so at the highest point the speed is given

$v_f = 32.77 m/s$

Part b)

After completing the motion we know that the displacement of the object will be zero in Y direction

so we have

$\Delta y = 0$

$0 = v_y t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

$T = \frac{2v_y}{g}$

$T = \frac{2(22.94)}{9.81} = 4.68 s$

In a fireworks display, a rocket is launched from the ground with a speed of 18.0 m/s and a direction of 51.0° above the horizon

Masja [62]

Answer:38.66 m

Explanation:

Given

launch angle $\theta =51^{\circ}$

launch velocity $u=18 m/s$

center of mass continue to travel its original Path so it center of mass will be at a distance of

$R=\frac{u^2\sin 2\theta }{g}$

$R=\frac{18^2\sin 102}{9.8}$

$R=32.33 m$

Center of mass will be at $x=32.33 m$

(b)if one of the piece will be at x=26 m then other will be at

$x_{com}=\frac{m_1x_1+m_2x_2}{m_1+m_2}$

$x_{com}=\frac{\frac{m}{2}\cdot 26+\frac{m}{2}\cdot x_0}{\frac{m}{2}+\frac{m}{2}}$

$32.33=\frac{26+x_0}{2}$

$x_0=38.66 m$

9. (02.04 LC)

ycow [4]

Answer:

Molecules speed up

Explanation:

This is caused because of the temperature increasing. The temperature increase is telling us that the thermal energy of the reaction is increasing. When the energy is increased molecules increase their speed, because they have more energy in them

Which property of matter allows convection currents to form

USPshnik [31]

Convection currents are formed due to the density difference between layers of fluid. The heated layers rise up because their density is less than that of the colder layers. Hope this helps!
