Salutations!

What is the smallest unit of a substance that keeps all of the physical and chemical properties of that substance?

Molecules is the smallest unit of a substance that keeps all of the physical and chemical properties of that substance. It is a group of atoms bounded together, and it can participate in a chemical reaction/

Hope I helped (:

Have a great day!

A 2 kg ball is moving 3 m/s when it starts rolling up a hill.

AURORKA [14]

Answer:

the height reached is = 0.458 [m]

Explanation:

We need to make a sketch of the ball and see the location of the reference point where the potential energy is zero. But the kinetic energy will be defined by the following expression:

$Ek=\frac{1}{2} *m*v^{2} \\where:Ek= kinetic energy [J]\\m = mass of the ball [kg]\\v = velocity of the ball [m/s]$

Replacing the values on the equation we have:

$Ek=\frac{1}{2}*(2)*(3^{2} )\\ Ek=9[J]\\$

This kinetic energy will be transformed in potential energy in the moment when the ball starts to rolling up. Therefore the maximum height reached by the ball depends of the initial velocity given to the ball.

$Ek=Ep\\where\\Ep=potential energy [J]\\Ep=m*g*h\\where\\g=gravity = 9.81[m/s^2]\\h=height reached [m]\\$

Now we have:

$h=\frac{Ep}{m*g} \\h=\frac{9}{2*9.81} \\\\h=0.45 [m]$

In that moment when the ball reach the 0.45 [m] the potencial energy will be maximum and equal to the kinetic energy when the ball has a velocity of 3[m/s]

A driver in a 2290-kg car car traveling at 42.7 m/s slams on the brakes and skids to a stop. If the coefficient of friction betw

8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

126.56 m

Explanation:

Applying,

-F = ma............. Equation 1

Where F = frictional force, m = mass of the car, a = acceleration.

Note: Frictional force is negative because it act in opposite direction to motion

But,

F = mgμ.......... Equation 2

Where g = acceleration due to gravity, μ = coefficient of friction

Substitute equation 2 in equation 1

-mgμ = ma

a = -gμ.............. Equation 3

From the question,

Given: μ = 0.735

Constant: 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these values in equation 3

a = -9.8×0.735

a = -7.203 m/s²

Finally,

Applying

v² = u²+2as.............. Equation 4

Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, s = distance

From the question,

Given: u = 42.7 m/s, v = 0 m/s (to a stop), a = -7.203 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation 4

0² = 42.7²+2(-7.203)s

-1823.29 = -14.406s

s = -1823.29/-14.406

s = 126.56 m

A shot is fired at an angle of 60 degree horizontal with Kinetic energy E. If air resistance is ignored, the K.E at the top of t

Lapatulllka [165]

I'm not sure what "60 degree horizontal" means.

I'm going to assume that it means a direction aimed 60 degrees
above the horizon and 30 degrees below the zenith.

Now, I'll answer the question that I have invented.

When the shot is fired with speed of 'S' in that direction,
the horizontal component of its velocity is S cos(60) = 0.5 S ,
and the vertical component is S sin(60) = S√3/2 = 0.866 S . (rounded)

-- 0.75 of its kinetic energy is due to its vertical velocity.
That much of its KE gets used up by climbing against gravity.

-- 0.25 of its kinetic energy is due to its horizontal velocity.
That doesn't change.

-- So at the top of its trajectory, its KE is 0.25 of what it had originally.

That's E/4 .
