Calculate the kinetic energy of a 4kg cat running 5m/s

Physics
1 answer:
natulia [17]4 years ago

Kinetic energy  =  (1/2) (mass) (speed)²

                         = (1/2) x (4 kg) x (5 m/s)²

                         =      (2 kg) x (25 m²/s²)

                         =    50 kg-m²/s²  =  <em>50 joules

A small glass bead has been charged to +20 nC. A small metal ball bearing 1.0 cm above the bead feels a 0.018 N downward electri
Alla [95]

Answer:

q=1\times10^{-8}C

Explanation:

Let the charge on the ball bearing is q.

charge on glass bead, Q = 20 nC = 20 x 10^-9 C

Force between them, F = 0.018 N

Distance between them, d = 1 cm = 0.01 m

By use of Coulomb's law in electrostatics

F=\frac{KQq}{d^{2}}

By substituting the values

0.018=\frac{9\times10^{9}\times20\times10^{-9}q}{0.01^{2}}

q=1\times10^{-8}C

Thus, the charge on the ball bearing is q=1\times10^{-8}C

On a straight, level, two-lane road, two cars moving in opposite directions approach and pass each other. Car A is in the eastbo
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

a) 42 m/s, positive direction (to the east), b) 42 m/s, negative direction (to the west).

Explanation:

a) Let consider that Car A is moving at positive direction. Then, the relative velocity of Car A as seen by the driver of Car B is:

\vec v_{A/B} = \vec v_{A} - \vec v_{B}\\\vec v_{A/B} = 11 \frac{m}{s} \cdot i + 31 \frac{m}{s} \cdot i\\\vec v_{A/B} = 42 \frac{m}{s} \cdot i

42 m/s, positive direction (to the east).

b) The relative velocity of Car B as seen by the drive of Car A is:

\vec v_{B/A} = \vec v_{B} - \vec v_{A}\\\vec v_{B/A} = -31 \frac{m}{s} \cdot i - 11 \frac{m}{s} \cdot i\\\vec v_{B/A} = - 42 \frac{m}{s} \cdot i

42 m/s, negative direction (to the west).

un columpio de balancin tiene una barra de 6m de longitud y en ella se sientan 2 personas,una de 60kg y otra de 40kg, calcular e
Kitty [74]

Answer:

<em>El punto de apoyo debe colocarse a 3.6 metros de la persona de 40 Kg</em>

<em>La ventaja mecánica es 1.5</em>

Explanation:

<u>Máquinas Simples</u>

Un balancín es un ejemplo de máquina simple, donde se aplica una fuerza física y ésta puede amplificarse o reducirse a voluntad cambiando la configuración física de la máquina.

En nuestro caso, el punto de apoyo o fulcro se coloca entre las dos fuerzas constituyendo una máquina de primer grado.

La situación planteada se muesta en la figura anexa. Debemos averiguar el valor de x para que las dos personas sentadas en el balancín puedan estar en equilibrio.

Para determinar el valor de x, se establece la condición de equilibrio de torques mecánicos. Ya que el balancín se asume en reposo, los torques aplicados de cada lado del mismo deben ser iguales, haciendo que el torque neto sea cero.

El torque es el producto de la fuerza por la distancia:

T = F.d

De cada extremo del balancín, se aplica una fuerza igual al peso de cada persona, es decir, llamando F1 al peso de la persona de 40 Kg y F2 al peso de la persona de 60 Kg:

F_1 = 40 kg * 9.8 m/s^2=392N\\\\F_2 = 60 kg * 9.8 m/s^2=588 N

El torque neto del balancín debe ser cero, es decir (refiérase a la figura):

F_1*x=F_2*(6-x)

Reemplazando los valores obtenidos:

392*x=588*(6-x)

Operando:

392*x+588*x=588*6

Simplificando

980*x=3528

Resolviendo

\displaystyle x=\frac{3528}{980}=3.6\ m

El punto de apoyo debe colocarse a 3.6 metros de la persona de 40 Kg, es decir, a (6 - 3.6) = 2.4 metros de la persona de 60 Kg

La ventaja mecánica se calcula como el cociente de ambas distancias

\displaystyle VM=\frac{3.6}{2.4}=1.5

La ventaja mecánica es 1.5, es decir, se amplifica la fuerza vez y media
