Flauer [41]3 years ago
3 0
     Using the Definition of Kinetic Energy, we have:

E_{c}= \frac{mv^2}{2}  \\ E_{c}= \frac{8*4^2}{2}  \\ \boxed {E_{c}=64J}

A squirrel jumps into the air with a velocity of 4 m/s at an angel of 50 degrees. What is the maximum height reached by the squi
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Assuming the squirrel is jumping off the ground, here's what we know but don't really know...

v₀ = 4.0 at 50.0°

So that's not really the velocity we are looking for. We are dealing with a max height problem, which is a y-dimension thing. Therefore, we need the squirrel's upward velocity, which is NOT 4.0 m/s. We find it in the following way:

v_{0y}=4.0sin(50.0) which gives us that the upward velocity is

v₀ = 3.1 m/s

Moving on here's what we also know:

a = -9.8 m/s/s and

v = 0

Remember that at the very top of the parabolic path, the final velocity is 0. In order to find the max height of the squirrel, we need to know how long it took him to get there. We are using 2 of our 3 one-dimensional equations in this problem. To find time:

v = v₀ + at and filling in:

0 = 3.1 - 9.8t and

-3.1 = -9.8t so

t = .32 seconds.

Now that we know how long it took him to get to the max height, we use that in our next one-dimensional equation:

Δx = v_0t+\frac{1}{2}at^2 and filling in:

Δx = 3.1(.32)+\frac{1}{2}(-9.8)(.32)^2 and using the rules for adding and subtracting sig fig's correctly, we can begin to simplify this:

Δx = .99 - .50 so

Δx = .49 meters

A common black ant discovers a piece of bread 85 cm east of the entrance of her nest. If the ant carries 10 bits of bread back t
babunello [35]

Answer:

19 x 85 = 1,615 for distance. Displacement is 0

Explanation:

The total distance traveled by the ant in 9 round trips and one 1/2 trip, or 19 one bash way trips: 19 x 85cm = 1615cm. The displacement of the ant after the tenth trip is 0 cm ( the displacement origin is the nest.)

1. Describe what conversation of momentum means.
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

1. The conversation of momentum is when a person or object has momentum and transfers it to another person or object.

Explanation:

2. Like if someone is on a swing and kicks someone in front of him. He stops and the kid in front of him falls over because the momentum was transferred.

Radda [10]

Answer:

a)    h = 8.02 10³ m  b) yes

Explanation:

a) The pressure in a fluid is given by

      P = ρ g h

The pressure in this case is the atmospheric pressure, 1.013 105 Pa, let's clear the height (h)

      h = P / ρ g

      h = 1.013 10⁵ / (1.29 9.8)

      h = 8.02 10³ m

b) The height of Mount Everest is 8848 m

It is above this height, according to this model there would be no air to breathe
