Answer:
48.16 %
Explanation:
coefficient of restitution = 0.72
let the incoming speed be = u
let the outgoing speed be = v
kinetic energy = 0.5 x mass x 
- incoming kinetic energy = 0.5 x m x
- coefficient of restitution =
0.72 =
v = 0.72u
therefore the outgoing kinetic energy = 0.5 x m x 
outgoing kinetic energy = 0.5 x m x 
outgoing kinetic energy = 0.5184 (0.5 x m x )
recall that 0.5 x m x is our incoming kinetic energy, therefore
outgoing kinetic energy = 0.5184 x (incoming kinetic energy)
from the above we can see that the outgoing kinetic energy is 51.84 % of the incoming kinetic energy.
The energy lost would be 100 - 51.84 = 48.16 %
Answer:
4,200 joules per kilogram per degree Celsius
Explanation:
The specific heat capacity of a material is the energy required to raise one kilogram (kg) of the material by one degree Celsius (°C). The specific heat capacity of water is 4,200 joules per kilogram per degree Celsius (J/kg°C). This means that it takes 4,200 J to raise the temperature of 1 kg of water by 1°C.
Answer:
gravity
Explanation:
Gravity pulls the planets toward the Sun. Gravity pulls the moon toward Earth. Gravity pulls us toward the Earth. Gravity is a force. Inertia.
Answer:
10.93m/s with the assumption that the water in the lake is still (the water has a speed of zero)
Explanation:
The velocity of the fish relative to the water when it hits the water surface is equal to the resultant velocity between the fish and the water when it hits it.
The fish drops on the water surface vertically with a vertical velocity v. Nothing was said about the velocity of the water, hence we can safely assume that the velocity if the water in the lake is zero, meaning that it is still. Therefore the relative velocity becomes equal to the velocity v with which the fish strikes the water surface.
We use the first equation of motion for a free-falling body to obtain v as follows;
v = u + gt....................(1)
where g is acceleration due to gravity taken as 9.8m/s/s
It should also be noted that the horizontal and vertical components of the motion are independent of each other, hence we take u = 0 as the fish falls vertically.
To obtain t, we use the second equation of motion as stated;
Given; h = 6.10m.
since u = 0 for the vertical motion; equation (2) can be written as follows;
substituting;
Putting this value of t in equation (1) we obtain the following;
v = 0 + 9.8*1.12
v = 10.93m/s
