A) The answer is 11.53 m/s

The final kinetic energy (KEf) is the sum of initial kinetic energy (KEi) and initial potential energy (PEi).
KEf = KEi + PEi

Kinetic energy depends on mass (m) and velocity (v)
KEf = 1/2 m * vf²
KEi = 1/2 m * vi²

Potential energy depends on mass (m), acceleration (a), and height (h):
PEi = m * a * h

So:
KEf = KEi + <span>PEi
</span>1/2 m * vf² =  1/2 m * vi² + m * a * h
..
Divide all sides by m:
1/2 vf² =  1/2 vi² + a * h

We know:
vi = 9.87 m/s
a = 9.8 m/s²
h = 1.81 m

1/2 vf² =  1/2 * 9.87² + 9.8 * 1.81
1/2 vf² = 48.71 + 17.74
1/2 vf² = 66.45
vf² = 66.45 * 2
vf² = 132.9
vf = √132.9
vf = 11.53 m/s


b) The answer is 6.78 m

The kinetic energy at the bottom (KE) is equal to the potential energy at the highest point (PE)
KE = PE

Kinetic energy depends on mass (m) and velocity (v)
KE = 1/2 m * v²

Potential energy depends on mass (m), acceleration (a), and height (h):
PE = m * a * h

KE = PE
1/2 m * v² = m * a * h

Divide both sides by m:
1/2 * v² = a * h
v = 11.53 m/s
a = 9.8 m/s² 
h = ?

1/2 * 11.53² = 9.8 * h
1/2 * 132.94 = 9.8 * h
66.47 = 9.8 * h
h = 66.47 / 9.8
h = 6.78 m

A physicist found that a force of 1.32 N was measured between two charged spheres. The distance between the spheres was 95 cm. C
labwork [276]

The electric force (and the gravitational force too) is inversely proportional
to the square of the distance between the objects involved.

In this question, the distance is increased by a factor of  (1.25/0.95) .

So the electric force will change by the factor of  (0.95/1.25)² .

The new force is

           (1.32 N) · (0.95/1.25)²  =  0.762... newton   (rounded)

Predict what happens when glucose levels are high in the humms body
Goryan [66]

Glucose is blood sugar (hyperglycemia) comes from diabeties often, but can occur with other reasons, when glucose is to high someoenes sugar raises. Often this can lead to a diabetic coma, fatigue, vomiting, hospitalization, and even death if serious enough, from to high sugar. Many things can happen after this, and a lot are serious.

on the flip side (hypoglycemia) if sugar gets to low, confusion, fainting, vomiting, and nausea occur, as well as comas, and death if serious enought.

One object (m 1) has a mass of 2 kg and moves with a speed of 9 m/s to the right. Another object (m 2) has a mass of 3 kg and mo
deff fn [24]

Answer:

-15 Ns

Explanation:

m_1 = Mass of first object = 2 kg

m_2 = Mass of second object = 3 kg

u_1 = Initial Velocity of first object = 9 m/s

u_2 = Initial Velocity of second object = -3 m/s

v_1 = Final Velocity of first object = 1.5 m/s

v_2 = Final Velocity of second object = 2 m/s

Change in linear momentum is given by

p_1=m(v_1-u_1)\\\Rightarrow p_1=2(1.5-9)\\\Rightarrow p_1=-15\ N.s

Change in linear momentum of the first object is -15 Ns
