Answer:

<em> The elastic potential energy stored in the bungee cord = 20 J</em>

Explanation:

potential energy: This is the energy possessed by a body due to its position. The S.I unit of energy is Joules. The mathematical expression for elastic potential energy is given below

E = 1/2ke²................ Equation 1

Where E = elastic potential energy of the spring, k = force constant of the spring, e = extension

<em>Given: K = 10 N/m, e = 2.00 m</em>

<em>Substituting these values into Equation 1</em>

<em>E = 1/2(10)(2)²</em>

<em>E = 5×4</em>

<em>E = 20 Joules.</em>

<em>Therefore the elastic potential energy stored in the bungee cord = 20 J</em>

What is the magnitude of the impulse that would cause the 2-kg box to accelerate from 2 m/s to 5 m/s?
Law Incorporation [45]

6 J is the impulse caused by the change in velocity of 2 kg box from 2 m/s to 5 m/s.

Answer:

The magnitude of impulse is 6 J.

Explanation:

Impulse is the force acting on any object for a given time interval. As force is equal to the product of mass and acceleration and acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time. Then the product of force with time interval will be equal to the product of mass with change in velocity.

F = m a = \frac{m(v-u)}{(t_{2}-t_{1}  )}

FΔt = mΔv

Impulse = FΔt=mΔv

As the mass of box is given as 2 kg and the velocity changes from 2 m/s to 5 m/s, then the impulse = 2 × (5-2) = 2 ×3 =6 J

So 6 J is the impulse caused by the change in velocity of 2 kg box from 2 m/s to 5 m/s.

in a closed system three objects have the following momentum: 11 kg* m/s, -65 kg*m/s and -100 kg m/s. the objects collide and mo
guajiro [1.7K]

Explanation:

The momentum of the three objects are as follow :

11 kg-m/s, -65 kg-m/s and -100 kg-m/s

Before collision, the momentum of the system is :

P_i=11+(-65)+(-100)\\\\P_i=-154\ kg-m/s

After collison, they move together. It means it is a case of inelastic collision. In this type of collision, the momentum of the system remains conserved.

It would mean that, after collision, momentum of the system is equal to the initial momentum.

Hence, final momentum = -154 kg-m/s.

As an object rolls downhill, some of the energy is
Charra [1.4K]
When the object is at the top of the hill it has the most potential energy. If it is sitting still, it has no kinetic energy. As the object begins to roll down the hill, it loses potential energy, but gains kinetic energy. The potential energy of the position of the object at the top of the hill is getting converted into kinetic energy. Hope this helped. :)
