bonufazy [111]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

30 J

Explanation:

height = 3 m

mass = 1kg

acceleration due to gravity = 10m/s²

Potential Energy = mass× gravity × height

= 1kg ×10m/s²× 3m

= 30 J

Please help! Average speed. Show work!
KiRa [710]

Answer:

3.78 m/s

Explanation:

Recall that the formula for average speed is given by

Speed = Distance ÷ Time taken

Where,

Speed = we are asked to find this

Distance = given as 340m

Time taken = 1.5 min = 1.5 x 60 = 90 seconds

Substituting the values into the equation:

Speed = Distance ÷ Time taken

= 340 meters  ÷ 90 seconds

= 3.777777 m/s

= 3.78 m/s (round to nearest hundredth)

Part C: Quantitative Problems when vf is not 0
Alina [70]

Answer:

(a)

\triangle v=-8\ m/s\\\triangle mv=-56\ kg.m/s

(b)

1120 N

Explanation:

Change in velocity, \triangle v is given by subtracting the initial velocity from the final velocity and expressed as \triangle v= v_f -v_i

Where v represent the velocity and subscripts f and i represent final and initial respectively. Since the ball finally comes to rest, its final velocity is zero. Substituting 0 for final velocity and the given figure of 8 m/s for initial velocity then the change in velocity is given by

\triangle v=0-8=-8\ m/s

To find m\triangle v then we substitute 7 kg for m and -8 m/s for \triangle v therefore \triangle\ v=7 Kg\times -8 m/s=-56\ Kg.m/s

(b)

The impact force, F is given as the product of mass and acceleration. Here, acceleration is given by dividing the change in velocity by time ie

a=\frac {\triangle v}{t}=\frac { v_f -v_i}{t}

Substituting t with 0.05 s then a=\frac {\triangle v}{t}=\frac { v_f -v_i}{t}=\frac {-8}{0.05}=-160 m/s^{2}

Since F=ma then substituting m with 7 Kg we get that F=7*-160=-1120 N

Therefore, the impact force is equivalent to 1120 N

If two children, with masses of 16 kg and 24 kg , sit in seats opposite one another, what is the moment of inertia about the rot
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

The moment of inertia about the rotation axis is 117.45 kg-m²

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of one child = 16 kg

Mass of second child = 24 kg

Suppose a playground toy has two seats, each 6.1 kg, attached to very light rods of length r = 1.5 m.

We need to calculate the moment of inertia

Using formula of moment of inertia

I=I_{1}+I_{2}

I=(m+m_{1})\times r^2+(m+m_{2})\times r^2

m = mass of seat

m₁ =mass of one child

m₂ = mass of second child

r = radius of rod

Put the value into the formula

I=(16+6.1)\times(1.5)^2+(24+6.1)\times(1.5)^2

I=117.45\ kg-m^2

Hence, The moment of inertia about the rotation axis is 117.45 kg-m²

Which action might lead scientists to develop new explanations about the
sweet [91]

Answer:

The correct option is;

B. Designing experiments to replicate the conditions in which life may have first evolved on Earth

Explanation:

The proof to the hypothesis that life originated from inanimate inorganic, or non-living  molecules which is an explanation for the origin of life on Earth was provided by an experiment designed and performed in 1953 by Stanley L. Miller and Harold C. Urey which consisted of using chemicals proposed in the hypothesis and combining them through a specific design process to replicate expected atmospheric condition before the life began on Earth.

With such successful design of experiments to replicate the conditions in which life may have first evolved on Earth, it was possible to better explain the hypothesis that life originated from inorganic molecule.
