How is kinetic energy of an object determined?

1 answer:

6 0

The formula for kinetic energy is

KE = (1/2) (mass) (speed)² .

How you measure the object's mass and speed is up to you.
You'd need different methods for different objects, and in some
cases, you'd need quite a bit of ingenuity.

Harrizon [31]

The concepts used to solve this problem are those related to the Pythagorean theorem for which we will calculate the distance and the pitch.

According to the attached diagram we have that the expression of the resulting displacement is

$R = \sqrt{(3b)^2+(4b)^2}$

Therefore the resultant displacement of the girl is

$R = \sqrt{(9b^2+16b^2)}$

$R = \sqrt{25b^2}$

$R = 5b$

Therefore the girl has displaced around of 5 blocks

Leviafan [203]

Answer:3.49 m/s

Explanation:

Given

Speed of marble at Bottom $v=4.22 m/s$

Diameter of loop $d=28.6 cm$

As Energy is conserved therefore Energy at top is equal to energy at bottom

$E_T=E_B$

$\frac{mv^2}{2}+mgh=\frac{mv_0^2}{2}$ ,where $v_0$ is the velocity at bottom

$\frac{v^2}{2}+gh=\frac{v_0^2}{2}$

$v_0^2=v^2+2gh$

$v^2=v_0^2-2gh$

$v=\sqrt{v_0^2-2gh}$

$v=\sqrt{4.22^2-2\times 9.8\times 0.286}$

$v=\sqrt{17.8084-5.6056}$

$v=3.49 m/s$
