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

What is the kinetic energy of a vehicle that has a mass of 3,500 kg and is moving at 40 m/s

stiv31 [10]

Answer:2800000j

Explanation:

For us to know the kinetic energy of the vehicle,

Where m is the mass

And v is the velocity

Then, K.E=1/2mv^2

While, K.E=1/2×3500×40^2

Therefore, our answer will now be

K.E=2800000j

kristine speeds past a parked police car at 32 m/s. The police car starts from rest with a uniform acceleration of 2.5 m/s^2. Ho

Digiron [165]

$32 = 0 \times t + \frac{1}{2} \times 2.5 \times t^{2} \\ 32 = 0 + 1.25 \times t {}^{2} \\ 32 = 1.25t {}^{2} \\ \frac{32}{1.25} = \frac{1.25t {}^{2} }{1.25} \\ t {}^{2} = 25.6 \\ \sqrt{t {}^{2} } = \sqrt{25.6} \\ t = 5.1seconds \\$

What is the new volume of the gas if the pressure on 350 L of oxygen

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

420 L

Explanation:

Applying Boyle's Law,

PV = P'V'.................... Equation 1

Where P = Initial pressure, P' = Final pressure, V = Initial volume, V' = Final volume.

make V' the subject of the equation

V' = PV/P'.................... Equation 2

From the question,

Given: P = 720 mmHg, V = 350 L, P' = 600 mmHg

Substitute these values into equation 2

V' = (720×350)/600

V' = 252000/600

V' = 420 L

A sphere of radius R contains charge Q spread uniformly throughout its volume. Find an expression for the electrostatic energy c

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

$E = \frac{3kQ^2}{5R}$

Explanation:

Let the sphere is uniformly charge to radius "r" and due to this charged sphere the electric potential on its surface is given as

$V = \frac{kq}{r}$

now we can say that

$q = \frac{Q}{\frac{4}{3}\pi R^3} (\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3)$

$q = \frac{Qr^3}{R^3}$

now electric potential is given as

$V = \frac{k\frac{Qr^3}{R^3}}{r}$

$V = \frac{kQr^2}{R^3}$

now work done to bring a small charge from infinite to the surface of this sphere is given as

$dW = V dq$

$dW = \frac{kQr^2}{R^3} dq$

here we know that

$dq = \frac{3Qr^2dr}{R^3}$

now the total energy of the sphere is given as

$E = \int dW$

$E = \int_0^R \frac{kQr^2}{R^3} (\frac{3Qr^2dr}{R^3})$

$E = \frac{3kQ^2}{R^6} (\frac{R^5}{5} - 0)$

$E = \frac{3kQ^2}{5R}$
