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.

Find the current passing through a circuit consisting of a battery and one resistor. The resistance has a retance of 2ohms and t

Bingel [31]

The current passing through a circuit consisting of a battery of 12 V and resistor of 2 ohms is 6 Ampere .

Explanation:

Assume the wires are ideal with zero resistance.

The current passing through the circuit will be

I = V/R = 12/2 = 6.000 A.

An object of mass 6.00 kg falls with an aceleration of 8.00 m/s2. The magnitude of air resitance must be ____ N

allsm [11]

Using Newton's Second Law, we can find the air resistance. We know the net force is equal to mass times acceleration. $F_{net} = m*a = (6.00kg)(8.00 \frac{m}{s^2}) = 48N 

F_{g} - F_{d} = 48N

48N = (6.00kg)(9.81m/s^2) - F_{d} 

F_{d} = 10.86N$

What causes objects to move or stay still (support your details with claims and evidence)

maxonik [38]

Force moves the object but if the same anyone force is applied to both sides then it doesn’t move
