1. Calculati greutatea unui sac cu 5 kg de cartofi într-o zonă in care acceleratia gravitatională

harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

the weight is 49.1 N

Explanation:

The computation of the weight is shown below:

As we know that

= 5kg of potatoes × gravitational acceleration

= 5kg of potatoes × 9.82 m/s

= 49.1 N

Hence, the weight is 49.1 N

We simply applied the above formula in order to determine the weight

a car headed north at 15 m/s accelerates for 4.25 s to reach a velocity of 28.3 m/s. What is the acceleration of the car?

Liono4ka [1.6K]

<u>Answer:</u>

The acceleration of the car is $3.13 m/s^2$

<u>Explanation:</u>

In the question it is given that car initially heads north with a velocity $15 m/s$ . It then accelerates for $4.25 s$ and in the end its velocity is $28.3 m/s$ .

initial velocity $u = 15 m/s$

time $t=4.25 s$

final velocity $v=28.3 m/s$

The equation of acceleration is

$a= \frac{(v-u)}{t}$

$= \frac{(28.3-15)}{4.25} = \frac {13.3}{4.25} =3.13m/s^2$

The value of acceleration is positive, here since the car is speeding up. If it was slowing down the value of acceleration would be negative.

a ball is thrown straight up into the air with a speed of 13 m/s. if the ball has a mass of 0.25 kg, how high does the ball go?

evablogger [386]

<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is: 8.62m

There are involved two types of mechanical energy: kinetic energy and potential energy, in two different moments.

<h2>First moment:</h2>

Before the ball is thrown, where the potential energy is 0.

<h2>Second moment: </h2>

After the ball is thrown, at its maximum height, the Kinetic Energy turns to 0 (since at maximum height,the speed is equal to 0) and the PE turns to its max value.

Therefore,

$E=PE+KE$

Where:

$PE=m.g.h$

$KE=\frac{1*m*v^{2}}{2}$

<em>E</em> is the total energy

<em>PE</em> is the potential energy

<em>KE</em> is the kinetic energy

<em>m</em> is the mass of the object

<em>g</em> is the gravitational acceleration

<em>h </em>is the reached height of the object

<em>v</em> is the velocity of the object

Since the total energy is always constant, according to the Law of Conservation of Energy, we can write the following equation:

$KE_{1}+PE_{1}=KE_{2}+PE_{2}$

Remember, at the first moment the PE is equal to 0 since there is not height, and at the second moment, the KE is equal to 0 since the velocity at maximum height is 0.

$\frac{1*m*v^{2}}{2}+m.g.(0)=\frac{1*m*0^{2}}{2}+m.g.h\\\frac{1*m*v_{1} ^{2}}{2}=m*g*h_{2}$
