catapult’s lever holds a cannonball. The lever is attached to a tightly held rope. When the rope is released, the lever springs

forward and launches the cannonball. When the rope is held tightly, which form of energy does it possess?

Answer:

Potential energy

Explanation:

Before release, the catapult has potential energy stored in a tension of torsion device in it. Normally a flexible bow like object that could be made of wood or of metal.

A 0.150 kg ball on the end of a 1.10 m long cord (negligible mass)is swung in a vertical circle..
Aneli [31]
<span> For any body to move in a circle it requires the centripetal force (mv^2)/r. In this case a ball is moving in a vertical circle swung by a mass less cord. At the top of its arc if we draw its free body diagram and equate the forces in radial direction to the centripetal force we get it as T +mg =(mv^2)/r T is tension in cord m is mass of ball r is length of cord (radius of the vertical circle) To get the minimum value of velocity the LHS should be minimum. This is possible when T = 0. So minimum speed of ball v at top =sqrtr(rg)=sqrt(1.1*9.81) = 3.285 m/s In the second case the speed of ball at top = (2*3.285) =6.57 m/s Let us take the lowest point of the vertical circle as reference for potential energy and apllying the conservation of energy equation between top & bottom we get velocity at bottom as 9.3m/s. Now by drawing the free body diagram of the ball at the bottom and equating the net radial force to the centripetal force T-mg=(mv^2)/r We get tension in cord T=13.27 N</span>

A planned high-speed train between Houston and Dallas will travel a distance of 386 kilometers in 5.40 × 10^3 seconds. What is t
Mazyrski [523]

¡Hellow!

For this problem, first, lets convert the seconds in hours:

5,4x10³\rightarrow 5400

h = sec / 3600

h = 5400 s / 3600

h = 1,5

Let's recabe information:

d (Distance) = 386 km

t (Time) = 1,5 h

v (Velocity) = ?

For calculate velocity, let's applicate formula:

                                                    \boxed{\boxed{\textbf{d = v * t} } }

Reeplace according we information:

386 km = v * 1,5 h

v = 386 km / 1,5 h

v = 257,33 km/h

The velocity of the train is of <u>257,33 kilometers for hour.</u>

<u></u>

Extra:

For convert km/h to m/s, we divide the velocity of km/h for 3,6:

m/s = km/h / 3,6

Let's reeplace:

m/s = 257,33 km/h / 3,6

m/s = 71,48

¿Good Luck?

A wire is wrapped around a piece of iron, and then electricity is run through the wire. What happens to the iron?
katrin [286]
Search Results<span>By simply wrapping wire that has an electrical current running through it around a nail, you can make an electromagnet. When the electric current moves through a wire, it makes a magnetic field. ... You can make a temporary magnet by stroking apiece of iron or steel (such as a needle) along with a permanent magnet.

Hope This Helps!</span>
