Answer:

The energy lost is 0.333156518 J.

Explanation:

The given mass of the pendulum = 0.259 kg

Length = 0.97 m

Displaced at an angle of = 31.4 degrees

Maximum angle of swing = 10 degrees

Initial potential energy = mgh

Initial potential energy = 0.259 × 9.8 × (1 – cos31.4)

= 0.259 × 9.8  × ( 1- 0.853551)

= 0.371716852 J

Final potential energy = mgh

Final potential energy = 0.259 × 9.8 × (1 – cos10)

= 0.259 × 9.8 × (1 – 0.984808)

= 0.0385603344 J

The lost energy =  Initial potential energy - Final potential energy  

= 0.371716852 J - 0.0385603344 J  

= 0.333156518 J

A cat weighing 7 kg chases a mouse at a speed of 4 m/s. What is the kinetic energy of the cat?
jeka57 [31]
54J
You calculate kinetic energy by the equation.
KE= 1/2mv^2
m= mass
v= velocity
then we have
KE = 1/2 x 3 x 6^2
KE = 1/2 x 3 x 36 = 54J

Does the universe need explaining or can it just 'be' there?
Naddik [55]

Recently, We've been discussing this specific topic in my RS class. So, there are many theories to explain the existence of the world such as the Big Bang, Evolution or the Creation story.

Although these are three different ideas, they can still be related or interconnected with one another in some way. For example, George Lemaintre's Big Bang explanation can be linked with the Creation story in ways such as God being present at the Big Bang or even God being the one to allow the Big Bang occur.

Furthermore, God might have created us as apes or monkeys then we evolved to become humans.

In conclusion, the universe couldn't have come to pass just like that, they're must be Scientific or Theological truths to back this up. The only thing is that people have their unique beliefs, according to their religion, culture and childhood background.

The mass of the rock is 1220 kg. It had 400 J of potential energy when it rolled down the hill. calculate the heihht.
Sauron [17]

potential is equal to mgh

we know that mass = 1220 kg

g=9.8 0r 10

400=1220*9.8*x

400=11956x

x=400/11956
