Answer:

$4.5(10)^8$ joules

Explanation:

Mass–energy equivalence is the principle that says that anything that has mass has an equivalent amount of energy. Converse is also true.

The relation between energy and mass is given by $E=mc^2$

Here, E denotes energy, m denotes mass and c denotes speed of light

Mass $(m)=1.5\,\,kg$

Speed of light (c) = 3 × $10^8$ m/s

Therefore,

$E=1.5(3)(10)^8=4.5(10)^8$ joules.

The S.I. unit of energy is joules which is equal to $1\,\,kg\,\,m^2/s^2$

What will occur when the waves peak at the same place at the same time?

dedylja [7]

Hello!

This is a matter of superposition.
When the waves peak at the same time and place, they produce constructive interference, meaning the waves interact together in a positive way, to make a wave with Amplitude of both waves added together. When the peaks differ however, at the same time and place, then it is destructive interference and the waves essentially cancel each other out.

Hope this helps. Any questions please just ask. Thank you kindly.

Answer: The velocity with which the sand throw is 24.2 m/s.

Explanation:

Explanation:

acceleration due to gravity, a = 3.9 m/s2

height, h = 75 m

final velocity, v = 0

Let the initial velocity at the time of throw is u.

Use third equation of motion

A woman with a mass of 52.0 kg is standing on the rim of a large disk that is rotating at an angular velocity of 0.470 rev/s abo

Charra [1.4K]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the woman, m₁ = 52 kg

Angular velocity, $\omega=0.47\ rev/s=2.95\ rad/s$

Mass of disk, m₂ = 118 kg

Radius of the disk, r = 3.9 m

The moment of inertia of woman which is standing at the rim of a large disk is :

$I={m_1r^2}$

$I={52\times 3.9^2}$

I₁ = 790.92 kg-m²

The moment of inertia of of the disk about an axis through its center is given by :

$I_2=\dfrac{m_2r^2}{2}$

$I_2=\dfrac{118\times (3.9)^2}{2}$

I₂ =897.39 kg-m²

Total moment of inertia of the system is given by :

$I=I_1+I_2$

$I=790.92+897.39$

I = 1688.31 kg-m²

The angular momentum of the system is :

$L=I\times \omega$

$L=1688.31 \times 2.95$

$L=4980.5\ kg-m^2/s$

So, the total angular momentum of the system is 4980.5 kg-m²/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

You are moving a desk that has a mass of 36 kg; its acceleration is 0.5 m / s 2. What is the force being applied

valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

18 N

Explanation:

Force can be found using the following formula.

f= m*a

where m is the mass and a is the acceleration.

We know the desk has a mass of 36 kilograms. We also know that its acceleration is 0.5 m/s^2.

m= 36 kg

a= 0.5 m/s^2

Substitute these values into the formula.

f= 36 kg * 0.5 m/s^2

Multiply 36 and 0.5

f=18 kg m/s^2

1 kg m/s^2 is equivalent to 1 Newton, or N.

f= 18 Newtons

The force being applied is 18 kg m/s^2, Newtons, or N

Newer aircraft jet catapult systems use magnets instead of steam. The launch still takes 1.19 seconds, but the acceleration is a

Westkost [7]

Answer:

33.6 m

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 47.41 m/s²

t = 1.19 s

Find: Δx

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = (0 m/s) (1.19 s) + ½ (47.41 m/s²) (1.19 s)²

Δx = 33.6 m
