Gravity acts to accelerate the ball downward, and air resistance acts in a way to slow the ball along it's instantaneous velocity (no matter which way it's moving air applies a force in the opposite direction)

Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer: E = 941738.537J

Explanation:

to begin,

given that the mass = 2320 pound = 1052.334 kg

Δh = 110 ft = 33.528 m

given that  distance (d) = 1283 ft = 391.058 m

also the speed (v) is 65 mph = 29.058 m/s

force (F) = 87 pounds = 386.995 N

from our knowledge in work energy theory;

E = Fd + 1/2mv² + mgh

E = (386.995 × 391.058) + (1/2×1052.334×29.058²) + (1052.334×9.81×33.528)

E = 151337.491 + 444278.2 + 346122.84

E = 941738.537J

i hope this helps, cheers.

Proper design of automobile braking systems must account for heat buildup under heavy braking. Part A Calculate the thermal ener
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

1838216 J

Explanation:

95 km/h = 26.39 m/s

40 km/h = 11.11 m/s

Initial kinetic energy

= .5 x 1600 x(26.39)²

= 557145.67 J

Final kinetic energy

= .5 x 1600 x ( 11.11)²

= 98745.68 J

Loss of kinetic energy

= 458400 J

Loss of potential energy

= mg x loss of height

= 1600 x 9.8 x 340 sin 15

= 1379816 J

Sum of Loss of potential energy and Loss of kinetic energy

=  1379816 + 458400

= 1838216 J

This is the work done by the friction . So this is heat generated.

Work out the kinetic energy of a 2.5 kg remote-controlled car that is moving at 2 m/s.
lbvjy [14]

Answer: 5 joules

Explanation:

mass=m=2.5kg

Velocity=v=2m/s

Kinetic energy=ke

ke=(m x v x v)/2

ke=(2.5 x 2 x 2)/2

Ke=10/2

Ke=5

Kinetic energy=5 joules

I started to solve this problem but I’m not sure on what to do next.
snow_tiger [21]

ANSWER:

3408.81 kg

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

Given:

v = 111 m/s

Ek = 21000000 J

We have that the formula for kinetic energy is as follows:

E_k=\frac{1}{2}\cdot m\cdot v^2

We substitute the values given in the exercise and solve for m (mass)

\begin{gathered} 21000000=\frac{1}{2}\cdot m\cdot111^2 \\ m=\frac{21000000\cdot2}{111^2} \\ m=3408.81\text{ kg} \end{gathered}

The mass of the helicopter is 3408.81 kilograms.
