As long as it sits on the shelf, its potential energy
relative to the floor is . . .

   Potential energy =      (mass) x (gravity) x (height) =

                                       (3 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) x (0.8m) = <u>23.52 joules</u> .

If it falls from the shelf and lands on the floor, then it has exactly that
same amount of energy when it hits the floor, only now the 23.52 joules
has changed to kinetic energy.

   Kinetic energy =                                          (1/2) x (mass) x (speed)²

                                                 23.52 joules = (1/2) x (3 kg) x (speed)²

Divide each side by  1.5 kg :     23.52 m²/s² = speed²

Take the square root of each side:    speed = √(23.52 m²/s²) =  <em>4.85 m/s </em> (rounded)

What is deceleration?????<br><br>Have a nice day​
Rufina [12.5K]
Deceleration—the ability to slow down and control force production—is often ignored during training; but deceleration technique is critical for most sports. Speed is often the factor that separates the elite from the average athlete. Credit source is stack.com have a nice day! I told you it was from the internet in case you couldn’t use the internet Hope this helped :)!

Recall specific heat of water is 4186 j/kg/C. Find the specific heat of sample.
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

Shown by explanation;

Explanation:

The heat of the sample = mass ×specific heat capacity of the sample × temperature change(∆T)

Assumption;I assume the mass of the samples are : 109g and 192g

∆T= 30.1-21=8.9°c.

The heat of the samples are for 109g are:

0.109 × 4186 × 8.9 =4060.84J

For 0.192g are;

∆T= 67-30.1-=36.9°c

0.192 × 4186×36.9=29656.97J

A truck of mass 200kg rests on an inclined plane hindered from rolling down the surface by a storing sprint whose force constant
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

1.92 J

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass (m) = 200 Kg

Spring constant (K) = 10⁶ N/m

Workdone =?

Next, we shall determine the force exerted on the spring. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (m) = 200 Kg

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Force (F) =?

F = m × g

F = 200 × 9.8

F = 1960 N

Next we shall determine the extent to which the spring stretches. This can be obtained as follow:

Spring constant (K) = 10⁶ N/m

Force (F) = 1960 N

Extention (e) =?

F = Ke

1960 = 10⁶ × e

Divide both side by 10⁶

e = 1960 / 10⁶

e = 0.00196 m

Finally, we shall determine energy (Workdone) on the spring as follow:

Spring constant (K) = 10⁶ N/m

Extention (e) = 0.00196 m

Energy (E) =?

E = ½Ke²

E = ½ × 10⁶ × (0.00196)²

E = 1.92 J

Therefore, the Workdone on the spring is 1.92 J
