A soccer ball with a mass of 0.45 kg is kicked and is moving at 8.9 m/s. Find the kinetic
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

17.82J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy = 1/2 mv^2

Given

Mass M = 0.45kg

Velocity v = 8.9m/s

Therefore,

K.E. = 1/2 x 0.45 x (8.9)^2

= 1/2 x 0.45 x (8.9 x 8.9)

= 1/2 x 0.45 x 79.21

Multiply through

= 35.6445/2

= 17.82J

The kinetic energy of the ball is 17.82J

Kalea throws a baseball directly upward at time t = 0 at an initial speed of 13.7 m/s. How high h does the ball rise above its r
Trava [24]

Answer:

h = 9.57 seconds

Explanation:

It is given that,

Initial speed of Kalea, u = 13.7 m/s

At maximum height, v = 0

Let t is the time taken by the ball to reach its maximum point. It cane be calculated as :

v=u-gt

u=gt

t=\dfrac{u}{g}

t=\dfrac{13.7}{9.8}

t = 1.39 s

Let h is the height reached by the ball above its release point. It can be calculated using second equation of motion as :

h=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2

Here, a = -g

h=ut-\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

h=13.7\times 1.39-\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8\times (1.39)^2

h = 9.57 meters

So, the height attained by the ball above its release point is 9.57 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.

A 1500kg car double its speed from 50km/h to 100km/h. By how many times does the kinetic energy from the car's forward motion in
Rashid [163]

Answer:

Explanation:

Inital KE = (1/2) m v^2 = (1/2) * 1500 * 50^2 = 1,875,000 J  

Final KE = (1/2) * 1500 * 100^2 = 7,500,000 J  

But  ,

4 * 1875000 = 7500000

so the KE has increased by 4 times.

The engine of a 2000 kg Mercedes going up Pike’s Peak delivers energy to its drive wheel at the rate 100 kW . Neglecting air res
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

v = 10 m/s

Explanation:

given,

Mass of Mercedes engine = 2000 Kg

Power delivered = 100 kW

angle made with horizontal = 30°

acceleration due to gravity =  10 m/s²

largest speed car can sustain = ?

we know,

Power = Force x velocity

P = F x v

P = mg sinθ x v

P = mg sin 30° x v

P = 0.5 mg  x v

v = \dfrac{100 \times 10^3}{0.5\times 2000 \times 10}

v = 10 m/s

hence, the maximum velocity is equal to v = 10 m/s
