<span>62 m/s^2 First, convert 155 km/h to m/s 155 km/h * 1000 m/km / 60 min/h / 60 s/h = 43.05556 m/s Now take the speed in m/s and divide by the number of seconds it took to accelerate it to that speed. 43.05556 m/s / 0.70 s = 61.5 m/s^2 Since we only have 2 significant figures, round the result to 2 figures. 61.5 m/s^2 = 62 m/s^2</span>

A bug walks exactly halfway around the edge of a circular cupcake with a diameter of 5 cm what is the distance he traveled and w
adelina 88 [10]

The circumference of a circle is (pi) x (diameter)

The circumference of the cupcake is (pi) x (5 cm)

Halfway around is (1/2) x (pi) x (5 cm) = (2.5 pi cm) = <em>about 7.85 cm</em>

The 'why' appears up above, in the first 2 lines of this solution.

A 36.3 kg cart has a velocity of 3 m/s. How much kinetic energy does the object have?
uysha [10]

Answer:

163.35

__________________________________________________________

<u>We are given:</u>

Mass of the object (m) = 36.3 kg

Velocity of the object (v) = 3 m/s

<u>Kinetic Energy of the object:</u>

We know that:

Kinetic Energy = 1/2(mv²)

KE = 1/2(36.3)(3)²            [replacing the variables with the given values]

KE = 18.15 * 9

KE = 163.35 Joules

Hence, the cart has a Kinetic Energy of 163.35 Joules

What quantity does the Hamiltonian correspond to? Rest mass Potential energy Total energy Kinetic energy Bohr frequency Lagrangi
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

The correct option is: Total energy

Explanation:

The Hamiltonian operator, in quantum mechanics, is an operator that is associated with the<u> total energy of the system.</u> It is equal to the sum of the total kinetic energy and the potential energy of all the particles of the system.

The Hamiltonian operator was named after the Irish mathematician, William Rowan Hamiltonis denoted and is denoted by H.

In which one of the following situations is zero net work done? A) A ball rolls down an inclined plane. B) A physics student str
lidiya [134]

Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

The work done can be given by the mechanical energy used to do work, i.e., Kinetic energy and potential energy provided to do the work.

In all the cases, except option D, the energy provided to do the useful work is not zero and hence work done is not zero.  

In option D, the box is being pulled with constant velocity, making the acceleration zero and thus Kinetic energy of the system is zero. Hence work done in this case is zero.
