We Know,

K.E. = 1/2 mv²

480 = 1/2 (m)(8)²

m = 960/64

m = 15 Kg

So, the mass of the object is 15 Kg

Hello!

An object has a velocity of 8 m/s and a kinetic energy of 480 J. What is the mass of the object?

We have the following data:

KE (Kinetic Energy) = 480 J

m (mass) = ? (in Kg)

v (speed) = 8 m/s

Formula to calculate kinetic energy:

$KE = \dfrac{1}{2} *m*v^2$

Solving:

$KE = \dfrac{1}{2} *m*v^2$

$480 = \dfrac{1}{2} *m*8^2$

$480 = \dfrac{1}{2} *m*64$

$480*2 = 64*m$

$960 = 64m$

$64m = 960$

$m = \dfrac{960}{64}$

$\boxed{\boxed{m = 15\:Kg}}\end{array}}\qquad\checkmark$

Answer:

15 kg

WheN a car is driven some distance the air pressure in the tyre increases,why?

KatRina [158]

Over the course of a long drive, as a result of alternating between braking and acceleration and of course steering, tires get heated up. When this happens, the air within the tires gets heated up, causing the air within the tire to expand. This expanding air exerts force on the tire from inside thus increasing tire pressure.

Rama09 [41]

Based on the information in the question, a light year is the distance traveled light in one year. Then if the light from the star Centauri takes 4.2 years to reach the earth, then its distance from earth is 4.2 light years.

A power supply has an open-circuit voltage of 40.0 V and an internal resistance of 2.00 V. It is used to charge two storage batt

Natali [406]

Complete Question

A power supply has an open-circuit voltage of 40.0 V and an internal resistance of 2.00 $\Omega$ . It is used to charge two storage batteries connected in series, each having an emf of 6.00 V and internal resistance of 0.300 $\Omega$ . If the charging current is to be 4.00 A, (a) what additional resistance should be added in series? At what rate does the internal energy increase in (b) the supply, (c) in the batteries, and (d) in the added series resistance? (e) At what rate does the chemical energy increase in the batteries?

Answer:

The additional resistance is $R_z = 4.4 \Omega$

The rate at which internal energy increase at the supply is $Z_1 = 32 W$

The rate at which internal energy increase in the battery is $Z_1 = 32 W$

The rate at which internal energy increase in the added series resistance is $Z_3 = 70.4 W$

the increase rate of the chemically energy in the battery is $C = 48 W$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The open circuit voltage is $V = 40.0V$

The internal resistance is $R = 2 \Omega$

The emf of each battery is $e = 6.00 V$

The internal resistance of the battery is $r = 0.300V$

The charging current is $I = 4.00 \ A$

Let assume the the additional resistance to to added to the circuit is $R_z$

So this implies that

The total resistance in the circuit is

$R_T = R + 2r +R_z$

Substituting values

$R_T = 2.6 +R_z$

And the difference in potential in the circuit is

$E = V -2e$

=> $E = 40 - (2 * 6)$

$E = 28 V$

Now according to ohm's law

$I = \frac{E}{R_T}$

Substituting values

$4 = \frac{28}{R_z + 2.6}$

Making $R_z$ the subject of the formula

So $R_z = \frac{28 - 10.4}{4}$

$R_z = 4.4 \Omega$

The increase rate of internal energy at the supply is mathematically represented as

$Z_1 = I^2 R$

Substituting values

$Z_1 = 4^2 * 2$

$Z_1 = 32 W$

The increase rate of internal energy at the batteries is mathematically represented as

$Z_2 = I^2 r$

Substituting values

$Z_2 = 4^2 * 2 * 0.3$

$Z_2 = 9.6 \ W$

The increase rate of internal energy at the added series resistance is mathematically represented as

$Z_3 = I^2 R_z$

Substituting values

$Z_3 = 4^2 * 4.4$

$Z_3 = 70.4 W$

Generally the increase rate of the chemically energy in the battery is mathematically represented as

$C = 2 * e * I$

Substituting values

$C = 2 * 6 * 4$

$C = 48 W$

What are all stars made of

ivolga24 [154]

Stars are huge celestial bodies made mostly of hydrogen and helium that produce light and heat from the churning nuclear forges inside their cores. Aside from our sun, the dots of light we see in the sky are all light-years from Earth. They are the building blocks of galaxies, of which there are billions in the universe. It’s impossible to know how many stars exist, but astronomers estimate that in our Milky Way galaxy alone, there are about 300 billion.
