When sitting in the tree the cat has a total of 1375J in its Gravitational potential store. What is the maximum amount of energy

that can be transferred when the cat lands on the ground?

Answer:

1375J

Explanation:

The gravitational potential/potential energy of the at the top of the tree which is the energy by virtue of its position.

P.E = mgh

mass = m

Acceleration due to gravity = g

height = h

At the top of the tree, the value of h (height) is high resulting in the gravitational potential. When the cat lands on the ground, the value of h is zero, the the gravitational potential would be zero and all the potential energy have been converted to other forms of energy.

Therefore, the total gravitational potential store is equal to the maximum amount of energy that can be transferred which is equal to 1375J.

Over a span of 6.0 seconds, a car changes it's speed from 89 km/h to 37 km/h. What is its average acceleration in meters per sec
scoundrel [369]

Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

change in speed = (speed at the end) - (speed at the beginning)

change in speed = (37 km/hr) - (89 km/hr) = -52 km/hr

Acceleration = (-52 km/hr) / (6 sec)

Acceleration = (-26/3) km/(hr·sec)

Units: (1/hr·sec) · (hr/3600 sec) = 1 / 3600 sec²

(-26/3) km/(hr·sec) = (-26/3) km/(3600 sec²)

= -26,000/(3 · 3600) m/s²

<em>Acceleration = -2.41 m/s²</em>

The heating element in a kettle behaves like a resistor. A particular kettle needs to operate at 230 V, with a power of 1500 W.
dedylja [7]

Answer:

R = 35.27 Ohms

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Voltage = 230V

Power = 1500W

To find the resistance, R;

Power = V²/R

Where:

V is the voltage measured in volts.

R is the resistance measured in ohms.

Substituting into the equation, we have;

1500 = 230²/R

Cross-multiplying, we have;

1500R = 52900

R = 52900/1500

R = 35.27 Ohms.

Therefore, the resistance which the heating element needs to have​ is 35.27 Ohms.

A flare is shot from a snowmobile with an initial velocity of 4.3 m/s at 90*, while the snowmobile is moving at 8.5 m/s at 0.0*.
Sedaia [141]

The driver is tooling along in his snowmobile, pointed north,
at 8.5 m/s.

He's carrying the flares with him, so the flares are also moving north
at 8.5 m/s.

When he fires the flare straight up, it has a vertical velocity of 4.3 m/s
straight up, and a horizontal velocity of 8.5 m/s towards the north.

The magnitude of the net velocity is √(4.3² + 8.5²) .
That's about  9.53 m/s, at some angle between straight up
and straight north.

The angle above horizontal is the angle that has a tangent of  4.3/8.5 .
I'll let you work out the angle.
