Kinetic energy, KE, is modeled by the formula KE =  \frac{1}{2}mv^2, where m is the mass in kg and v is the velocity in m/s.

In this scenario, mass and one-half are constant but the velocity changes. 

You can see that by squaring twice the velocity, that is equal to four times the original KE. Therefore, the answer is 4k.

A fisherman is fishing from a bridge and is using a "44.0-N test line." In other words, the line will sustain a maximum force of
vitfil [10]

Answer:

a) 4.485 kg b) 3.94 kg

Explanation:

since the maximum tension the line can stand is 44 N and for question a the speed is constant (acceleration must be zero since the velocity or speed is not changing), F(tension) = mass * acceleration due to gravity (g) .

44 = m * 9.81m/s^2

m = 44/9.81 = 4.485kg

b) F(tension) = ma + mg ( where a is the acceleration of the body and g is the acceleration of the gravity)

44 = m (a +g)

44 = m (1.37 + 9.81)

44/11.18 = m

m = 3.94 kg

A helicopter flies with an air speed of 175 km/h, heading south. The wind is blowing at 85 km/h to the east relative to the grou
spayn [35]

Answer:

154° at 195 km/h

Explanation:

The helicopter is moving south at 175 km/h, relative to the wind.

But the wind is moving east at 85 km/h, relative to the ground.

This means that the helicopter is moving south east relative to the ground.

Every hour, the helicopter will move 175 km to the south and 85 km to the east, relative to the ground.

This means that we can determine the speed and direction of the helicopter using a right triangle and simple trigonometry.

Refer to the triangle b1.

The distance traveled by the helicopter in 1 hour is denoted by d.

d is the hypotenuse of the right triangle.

Using the Pythagorean Theorem, we can calculate d to be 195 km (rounded to 3 s. f.)

Hence the helicopter is traveling at 195 km/h relative to the ground.

To calculate the direction we use,

tan (x) = opposite/adjacent = 85/175

So the angle x is,

x = arctan (\frac{85}{175} ) = 25.9°

Relative to the North, the helicopter is moving at 180° - 25.9° = 154° (rounded to 3 s. f.)

Explain the law of conservation of momentum.
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

It says that momentum cannot be created or destroyed. Momentum just passes through systems as opposed to just disappearing in thin air. Momentum can be changed to heat or energy.

A mass of 5kg accelerates at 3m/s/s, how much force was put on it?
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

15N

Explanation:

According to Newton's Second Law of Motion

F = m*a

mass = m = 5Kg

acceleration = a = 3m/s^2

=> F = 5kg * 3m/s^2

=> F = 15 N

What is Planck’s law?
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

The wavelength of the emitted radiation is inversely proportional to its frequency, or λ = c/ν. The value of Planck's constant is defined as 6.62607015 × 10−34 joule∙second.

Explanation:

Planck's quantum theory. According to Planck's quantum theory, Different atoms and molecules can emit or absorb energy in discrete quantities only. The smallest amount of energy that can be emitted or absorbed in the form of electromagnetic radiation is known as quantum.

Hope this helps!
