Answer:

The red ball has greater kinetic energy because it is moving at the same speed as the yellow ball, which is lighter than the red ball.

Explanation:

Formula for kinetic energy: 1/2mv²

Yellow ball:

= 1/2(2)(3)²

=1/2(2)(9)

= 9J

Red ball:

= 1/2(3)(3)²

=1/2(3)(9)

= 13.5J

What is the momentum of a 35–kilogram cart moving at a speed of 1.2 meters/second?
Alexus [3.1K]

Given:-

  • Mass of the cart (m) = 35 kg
  • Speed (consider Velocity) = 1.2 m/s

To Find: Momentum of the cart.

We know,

p = mv

where,

  • p = Momentum,
  • m = Mass &
  • v = Velocity.

Thus,

p = (35 kg)(1.2 m/s)

→ p = 42 kg m/s (Ans.)

Conclusion:-

A. ☑️ 42 kilogram - metre per second.

The wavelength of a water wave is 54 m. It has a frequency of 0.03 Hz. What is the velocity of the wave?
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

1.62 m/s

Explanation:

Wavelength of the water wave= 54 m

The frequency is 0.03 Hz

Therefore the velocity can be calculated as follows

Velocity= frequency × wavelength

= 0.03 × 54

= 1.62 m/s

When it is at rotating at full speed, a disk drive in a certain old computer game system revolves once every 0.050 seconds. Star
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

α = 200*π rad/sec²

Explanation:

  • If the disk drive revolves once every 0.05 sec, this means that the angular velocity can be expressed as follows:

        \omega = \frac{2*\pi}{0.05s} = 40*\pi rad/sec

  • (just applying the definition of angular velocity)
  • Now, it the disk started from rest, and took two revolutions to reach to full speed, assuming that the angular acceleration is constant, we can find the angular acceleration applying this kinematic equation:

        \omega_{f} ^{2} -\omega_{0} ^{2} = 2*\alpha * \Delta\theta

  • where Δθ, is the angle rotated while it went from rest to full speed, i.e., 2 revolutions, or 2*π rads.
  • Replacing by the value that we found for ωf (as ω₀ = 0), we  can solve for α :

       \alpha =\frac{\omega_{f}^{2} }{2*\Delta\theta} = \frac{(40*\pi)^{2} }{2*2*2*\pi } =\\ \\ \alpha = 200*\pi rad/sec2

At a fixed depth within a fluid at rest, the pressure pushing upward is
earnstyle [38]

Answer: E) A) salt water.

Explanation:

E) In equilibrium, pressure exerts equally in all directions, so for a given depth, the pressure is the same for all points located at the same depth, and it can be written as follows:

p = p₀ + ρ.g.h, where p₀ = atmospheric pressure, ρ=fluid density, h=depth from the surface.

A) The buoyant force, as discovered by Archimedes, is an upward force, that opposes to the weight of an object (as it is always downward), and is equal to the weight of the volume of the liquid that the object removes, which means that is proportional to the density of the liquid.

As salt water is denser than fresh water, the buoyant force exerted by the salt water is always greater than the one produced by the fresh water, so objects will float more easily in salt water than in fresh water.

In the limit, it is possible that one object float in salt water and sink in fresh water.
