Answer:

Gravitational potential energy transforms into kinetic energy.

Explanation:

It is given that, we have to write energy transformation occurs when a skydiver first jumps from a plane.

Just before jumping from the plane, the skydive exhibit only gravitational potential energy because it is possessed due to height of an object. It can be given by :

PE = m g h

m is the mass of object

g is acceleration due to gravity

h is the height form the surface

As he reaches down, its potential energy decreases continuously and it is converting to kinetic energy. It can be given by :

KE = 0.5 mv²

V is the velocity of object

So, it is clear that the gravitational potential energy si transforms to kinetic energy.

Hot air balloon with a kinetic energy of 76550J and a mass of 1890kg.<br> what’s the velocity?
lukranit [14]

Answer:

K.E =  \frac{1}{2} m {v}^{2}  \\ 76550 = \frac{1}{2} (1890) {v}^{2} \\  {v}^{2}  =  \frac{76550}{945}  \\  = 81.005 \\ v =  \sqrt{81.005}  \\ v  \approx \: 9m. {sec}^{ - 1}

I don’t understand can someone break it down for me
Westkost [7]

Answer:

a = (v² – v₀²)/ 2(s – s₀)

Explanation:

v² = v₀² + 2a (s – s₀)

We can make 'a' the subject of the above expression as follow:

v² = v₀² + 2a (s – s₀)

Subtract v₀² from both side

v² – v₀² = v₀² + 2a (s – s₀) – v₀²

v² – v₀² = v₀² – v₀² + 2a (s – s₀)

v² – v₀² = 2a (s – s₀)

Divide both side by (s – s₀)

(v² – v₀²)/ (s – s₀) = 2a

Divide both side by 2

(v² – v₀²)/ (s – s₀) ÷ 2 = a

(v² – v₀²)/ (s – s₀) × 1/2 = a

(v² – v₀²)/ 2(s – s₀) = a

a = (v² – v₀²)/ 2(s – s₀)
