When ball is about to hit the ground, almost all its potential energy has already converted into kinetic energy. Thus at t=0.9 sec, it has least potential energy.

That 1.5 kg brick falls to the ground. What is the kinetic energy when the brick is moving at 26 m/s? Formula: Variables: Work w
Tresset [83]

Answer:

<h2>507 J</h2>

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of an object can be found by using the formula

k =  \frac{1}{2} m {v}^{2}  \\

m is the mass

v is the velocity

From the question we have

k =  \frac{1}{2}  \times 1.5 \times  {26}^{2}  \\  =  \frac{1}{2}  \times 1.5 \times 676 \\  = 1.5 \times 338  \\ = 507

We have the final answer as

<h3>507 J</h3>

Hope this helps you

A ball rolls off a desk at a speed of 3 m/s and lands .40 seconds later. How far from the base of the desk does the ball land?
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Is the velocity constant? Is there any friction?

3 meters per second

then after 40 seconds it must 3*40 = 120 meters

120 meters or 0.12 km if you will

A ball is thrown up at a speed of 20 m/s.
ioda

Given:

(Initial velocity)u=20 m/s

At the maximum height the final velocity of the ball is 0.

Also since it is a free falling object the acceleration acting on the ball is due to gravity g.

Thus a=- 9.8 m/s^2

Now consider the equation

v^2-u^2= 2as

Where v is the final velocity which is measured in m/s

Where u is the initial velocity which is measured in m/s

a is the acceleration due to gravity measured in m/s^2

s is the displacement of the ball in this case it is the maximum height attained by the ball which is measured in m.

Substituting the given values in the above formula we get

0-(20x20)= 2 x- 9.8 x s

s= 400/19.6= 20.41m

Thus the maximum height attained is 20.41 m by the ball

A 43.9-g piece of copper (CCu= 0.385 J/g°C) at 135.0°C is plunged into 254 g of water at 39.0°C. Assuming that no heat is lost t
Semmy [17]

Answer:

T = 40.501\,^{\textdegree}C

Explanation:

The interaction of the piece of copper and water means that the first one need to transfer heat in order to reach a thermal equilibrium with water. Then:

-Q_{out,Cu} = Q_{in,H_{2}O}

After a quick substitution, the expanded expression is:

-(43.9\,g)\cdot (0.385\,\frac{J}{g\cdot ^{\textdegree}C} )\cdot (T-135^{\textdegree}C) = (254\,g)\cdot (4.187\,\frac{J}{g\cdot ^{\textdegree}C} )\cdot (T-39\,^{\textdegree}C)

-16.902\,\frac{J}{^{\textdegree}C}\cdot (T-135^{\textdegree}C) = 1063.498\,\frac{J}{^{\textdegree}C} \cdot  (T-39^{\textdegree}C)

43758,192\,J = 1080.4\,\frac{J}{^{\textdegree}C}\cdot T

The final temperature of the system is:

T = 40.501\,^{\textdegree}C

What is E=m² the famous theory of albert einstien?
pshichka [43]
Actually it's E = mc^{2} and it says that the energy of an object (E) is equal to the mass (m) of the object multiplied with the squared speed of light (c^{2}). This theory says that mass can be turned into energy and energy can be turned into mass. This is one of Einstein's theory of relativity.
