You serve a volleyball with a mass of 2.1 kg. The ball leaves your hand with a speed of 30 m/s. The ball has—— energy. Calculate
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

945 j

Explanation:

You have just given the ball kinetic energy, which is given by the following equation:

KE= 1⁄2 m v2 = 1⁄2 (2.1 kg)(30 m/s)2 = 945 Joules

A billiard ball of mass m moving with speed v1=1 m/s collides head-on with a second ball of mass 2m which is at rest. What is th
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

The velocity of mass 2m is  v_B = 0.67 m/s

Explanation:

From the question w are told that

     The mass of the billiard ball A is =m

     The initial speed  of the billiard ball A = v_1 =1 m/s

    The mass of the billiard ball B is = 2 m

    The initial speed  of the billiard ball  B = 0

Let the final speed  of the billiard ball A  = v_A

Let The finial speed  of the billiard ball  B = v_B

      According to the law of conservation of Energy

                 \frac{1}{2} m (v_1)^2 + \frac{1}{2} 2m (0) ^ 2 = \frac{1}{2} m (v_A)^2 + \frac{1}{2} 2m (v_B)^2

              Substituting values  

                \frac{1}{2} m (1)^2  = \frac{1}{2} m (v_A)^2 + \frac{1}{2} 2m (v_B)^2

Multiplying through by \frac{1}{2}m

                1 =v_A^2 + 2 v_B ^2 ---(1)

    According to the law of conservation of Momentum

            mv_1 + 2m(0) = mv_A + 2m v_B

    Substituting values

            m(1)  = mv_A + 2mv_B

Multiplying through by m

           1 = v_A + 2v_B ---(2)

making v_A subject of the equation 2

            v_A = 1 - 2v_B

Substituting this into equation 1

         (1 -2v_B)^2 + 2v_B^2 = 1

         1 - 4v_B + 4v_B^2 + 2v_B^2 =1

          6v_B^2  -4v_B +1 =1

          6v_B^2 -4v_B =0

Multiplying through by \frac{1}{v_B}

          6v_B -4 = 0

            v_B = \frac{4}{6}

            v_B = 0.67 m/s

A car travels 50 km in 25 km /h and then travels 60km with a velocity 20 km/h and then travels 60km with a velocity 20 km/h in t
Butoxors [25]

Answer:

v = 21.25 km/h

The average velocity is 21.25km/h

Explanation:

Average velocity = total displacement/time taken

v = d/t

Given;

A car travels 50 km in 25 km /h

d1 = 50km

v1 = 25km/h

time taken = distance/velocity

t1 = d1/v1

t1 = 50/25 = 2 hours

and then travels 60km with a velocity 20 km/h

d2 = 60km

v2 = 20km/h

t2 = d2/v2 = 60/20

t2 = 3 hours

and then travels 60km with a velocity 20 km/h in the same direction

d3 = 60km

v3 = 20km/h

t3 = d3/v3 = 60/20

t3 = 3 hours

Average velocity = total displacement/total time taken

v = (d1+d2+d3)/(t1+t2+t3)

v = (50+60+60)/(2+3+3)

v = 170/8

v = 21.25 km/h

The average velocity is 21.25km/h

A baseball with a mass of 300 g has a kinetic energy of 304 J. Calculate the speed of the baseball
scZoUnD [109]

The formula for kinetic energy is equal to 1/2mv^2, where "m" is the mass of the object (in kilograms) and "v" is equal to the velocity of the object (in meters per second). To calculate the speed, simply plug in the values and solve.

KE = 0.5mv^2

304 J = 0.5(0.3 kg)v^2         -mass converted from grams to kilograms

v = 45.02 m/s

The baseball is travelling about 45.02 meters per second.

Hope this helps!

A rocket ship leaves Earth's atmosphere. Its initial velocity is less than its final velocity. What is this an example of?
77julia77 [94]
I believe this would be an example of positive acceleration as the initial velocity of the rocket is less than the final velocity, indicating that the rocket is accelerating and thus is positive.
