A 10.0kg water balloon is dropped from a height of 12.0m. Calculate the speed of the balloon just before it hits the ground

Physics
1 answer:
kolbaska11 [484]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

15.5 m/s.

Explanation:

Potential energy of the balloon has been converted to kinetic energy.

potential energy = kinetic energy.

mgh = ½mv².

10* 10* 12= ½ *10 *v²

1200 = 5v²

v²=1200÷5

v=√240

v= 15.49~15.5 m/s.

After a great many contacts with the charged ball, how is the charge on the rod arranged (when the charged ball is far away)?
faust18 [17]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Since, there is a negative charge present on the ball and a positive charge present on the rod. So, when the negatively charged metal ball will come in contact with the rod then positive charges from rod get conducted towards the metal ball.

Hence, the rod gets neutralized. But towards the metal ball there is a continuous supply of negative charges. Therefore, after the neutralization of positive charge from the rod there will be flow of negative charges from the metal ball towards the rod.

Thus, we can conclude that negative charge spread evenly on both ends.

5/6 When switched on, the grinding machine accelerates from rest to its operating speed of 3450 rev/min in 6 seconds. When switc
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

Δθ₁ =  172.5 rev

Δθ₁h =  43.1 rev

Δθ₂ =   920 rev

Δθ₂h = 690 rev

Explanation:

  • Assuming uniform angular acceleration, we can use the following kinematic equation in order to find the total angle rotated during the acceleration process, from rest to its operating speed:

       \Delta \theta = \frac{1}{2} *\alpha *(\Delta t)^{2}  (1)  

  • Now, we need first to find the value of  the angular acceleration, that we can get from the following expression:

       \omega_{f1}  = \omega_{o} + \alpha * \Delta t  (2)

  • Since the machine starts from rest, ω₀ = 0.
  • We know the value of ωf₁ (the operating speed) in rev/min.
  • Due to the time is expressed in seconds, it is suitable to convert rev/min to rev/sec, as follows:

       3450 \frac{rev}{min} * \frac{1 min}{60s} = 57.5 rev/sec (3)

  • Replacing by the givens in (2):

       57.5 rev/sec = 0 + \alpha * 6 s  (4)

  • Solving for α:

       \alpha = \frac{\omega_{f1}}{\Delta t} = \frac{57.5 rev/sec}{6 sec} = 9.6 rev/sec2 (5)

  • Replacing (5) and Δt in (1), we get:

       \Delta \theta_{1} = \frac{1}{2} *\alpha *(\Delta t)^{2} = \frac{1}{2} * 6.9 rev/sec2* 36 sec2 = 172.5 rev  (6)

  • in order to get the number of revolutions during the first half of this period, we need just to replace Δt in (6) by Δt/2, as follows:

       \Delta \theta_{1h} = \frac{1}{2} *\alpha *(\Delta t/2)^{2} = \frac{1}{2} * 6.9 rev/sec2* 9 sec2 = 43.2 rev  (7)

  • In order to get the number of revolutions rotated during the deceleration period, assuming constant deceleration, we can use the following kinematic equation:

       \Delta \theta = \omega_{o} * \Delta t + \frac{1}{2} *\alpha *(\Delta t)^{2}  (8)

  • First of all, we need to find the value of the angular acceleration during the second period.
  • We can use again (2) replacing by the givens:
  • ωf =0 (the machine finally comes to an stop)
  • ω₀ = ωf₁ = 57.5 rev/sec
  • Δt = 32 s

       0 = 57.5 rev/sec + \alpha * 32 s  (9)

  • Solving for α in (9), we get:

       \alpha_{2}  =- \frac{\omega_{f1}}{\Delta t} = \frac{-57.5 rev/sec}{32 sec} = -1.8 rev/sec2 (10)

  • Now, we can replace the values of ω₀, Δt and α₂ in (8), as follows:

        \Delta \theta_{2}  = (57.5 rev/sec*32) s -\frac{1}{2} * 1.8 rev/sec2\alpha *(32s)^{2} = 920 rev (11)

  • In order to get finally the number of revolutions rotated during the first half of the second period, we need just to replace 32 s by 16 s, as follows:
  • \Delta \theta_{2h}  = (57.5 rev/sec*16 s) -\frac{1}{2} * 1.8 rev/sec2\alpha *(16s)^{2} = 690 rev (12)

A system gains 1500 J of heat, while the internal energy of the system increases by 4500 J and the volume decreases by . Assume
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

Hence the pressure is 3\times 10^5 Pa

Explanation:

Given data

Q=1500 J   system gains heat

ΔV=- 0.010 m^3     there is a decrease in volume

ΔU= 4500 J        internal energy decrease

We know work done is

W= Q- ΔU

=1500-4500= -3000 J

The change in the volume at constant pressure is

ΔV= W/P

there fore P = W/ΔV= -3000/-0.01= 3×10^5

Hence the pressure is 3\times 10^5 Pa

Power is the rate at which energy is transformed. A person is limited in the total work he or she can do only by the total energ
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

Power is the rate at which energy is transformed.

The SI unit of power is the watt.

Power is the rate at which work is done.

Explanation:

In this question we have to choose the statements related to Power that are True.

In this sense, Power P is the speed with which work W is done. Its unit is Watts (W), being 1 W=\frac{1 Joule}{1 s}.  

Power is mathematically expressed as:

P=\frac{W}{t}

Where t is the time during which work W is performed.

On the other hand, the Work W done by a Force F refers to the release of potential energy from a body that is moved by the application of that force to overcome a resistance along a path. It is a scalar magnitude, and its unit in the International System of Units is the Joule (like energy). Therefore, 1 Joule is the work done by a force of 1 Newton when moving an object, in the direction of the force, along 1 meter (1J=(1N)(1m)=Nm ).

So, according to this explanation, the true statements are:

Power is the rate at which energy is transformed.

The SI unit of power is the watt.

Power is the rate at which work is done.
