A medicine ball has a mass of 5 kg and is thrown with a speed of 2 m/s. what is its kinetic energy?

Physics

Fantom [35]3 years ago

The kinetic energy of the ball is given by:
K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2
where m=5 kg is the mass of the ball and v=2 m/s is its speed. Substituting these numbers, we find the kinetic energy:
K= \frac{1}{2} (5kg)(2m/s)^2=10 J

Please can some one explaine fore me What is work done
olga nikolaevna [1]
In Physics, 'work' has a very clear definition:

It's (strength of a force) times (distance through which the force acts).

'Work' has the units of Energy.

If you push against a shopping cart with 30 newtons of force, and
you keep pushing while the cart moves 4 meters, then you have
done (30 x 4) = 120 newton-meters of work = 120 "Joules".

You need to know the height of a tower, but darkness obscures the ceiling. You note that a pendulum extending from the ceiling a
Sonja [21]

Answer:

L=55.9m

Explanation:

The equation for the period of a simple pendulum is:

T=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}

In our case what we know is the period and the acceleration of gravity, and we need to know the length of the pendulum, so we can write:

L=(\frac{T}{2\pi})^2g

Which for our values is:

L=(\frac{15s}{2\pi})^2(9.81m/s^2)=55.9m

A stone is thrown in the upwards direction at the velocity of 4 m/s. It attains a certain height and then it falls back. During
Sati [7]

Answer: 0.8 m

Explanation:

Velocity of throw = 4m/s

Maximum Height attained(h) =?

Downward acceleration experienced = 10m/s^2

Using the relation:

v^2 = u^2 + 2aS

v = final Velocity = 0 (at maximum height)

u = Initial Velocity = 4

a = g downward acceleration = - 10

0 = 4^2 + 2(-10)(S)

0 = 16 - 20S

20S = 16

S = 16 / 20

S = 0.8m

Maximum Height attained = 0.8m

I hope This helps

Explanation:

The majority of oxidation-reduction (redox) reactions share two critical features. One is that a reduction happens in both, while equivalent oxidation occurs; they are combined.

Why are jovian planets so much larger than terrestrial planets?
Nataly [62]

Explanation:

The temperature in the inner solar system was too high for light gases to condense, while in the outer solar system, the temperature was much lower, which allowed the Jovian planets to form, which grew enough to accumulate and retain the hydrogen gas that remained in the solar nebula, which led to its high levels of hydrogen and large size.
