There are plenty methos, I´ll do it like this.
We know that:
Epg=mgh
Work for h:
h=(Epg)/mg
h=(19,6J)/1kg*9,8m/s²
h=2m
Now, we know that:
v=√2gh
v=√2*9,8m/s²*2m
v=6,26m/s

A light plane is headed due south with a speed of 200 km/h relative to still air. After 1.00 hour, the pilot notices that they h
Lilit [14]

Answer: the total velocity of the air is 67.69km/h to the north and 35.4km/h to the east.

Explanation: The initial velocity of the plane is 200km/h south (supose that south is our positive x-axis here and east is the positive y-axis)

In one hour, the plane is located 137km away from the initial position, and the position in X is equal to 137km*cos(15°) = 132.33, this means that the velocity in the x axis is equal to 132.33 km/h, knowing that the initial velocity of the plane was 200km in the x-axis, this means that the velocity of the air must be:

132.33km/h - 200km/h = -67.69km/h

km and the position in "y" is equal to 137km*sin(15°) = 35.4km

This means that the velocity of the air in the y-axis is 35.4km/h

So the total velocity of the air is 67.69km/h to the north and 35.4km/h to the east.

A horizontal force of 200 n is applied to move a 55-kg cart (initially at rest) across a 10-m level surface. what is the final k
Vesnalui [34]
<span>Kinetic energy is the energy that is possessed by an object that is moving. It is calculated by one-half the product of the mass and the square of the velocity of the object. We need to determine the velocity of the cart that is moving. 
</span>
First, we use Newton's Second Law of motion;
<span>Force = ma 
200 = 55a 
a = 3.64 m/s^2 

Then, from the kinematic equation we calculate the velocity;
v^2 = v0^2 + 2ax

where v is the final velocity, v0 is the initial veocity (zero since it initially start at zero), a is the acceleration ( 3.64 m/s^2) and x is the distance traveled.

v^2 = 0^2 + 2 (3.64) (10) 
v^2 = 72.73 m^2 / s^2
v = 8.53 m / s 

KE = mv^2 / 2
KE = 1/2 (55) (8.53^2) 
KE= 2000 J</span>

. Draw a Cartesian coordinate system on a sheet of paper. On this Cartesian coordinate system, draw each vector to scale, starti
Triss [41]

Answer:

a) the first vector has magnitude 58 cm and the angle is 15 measured clockwise from the positive side of the x-axis

b) the second vector, the magnitude is 55.7 cm and the angle is 35 half from the negative side of the x-axis in a clockwise direction

c) the magnitude is 54.2 cm with an angle of 18 measured counterclockwise from the x-axis

Explanation:

For this exercise we draw a Cartesian coordinate system in this system: East coincides with the positive part of the x-axis and North with the positive part of the y-axis.

a) the first vector has magnitude 58 cm and the angle is 15 measured clockwise from the positive side of the x-axis

b) the second vector, the magnitude is 55.7 cm and the angle is 35 half from the negative side of the x-axis in a clockwise direction

c) the magnitude is 54.2 cm with an angle of 18 measured counterclockwise from the x-axis

In the attachment we can see the representation of the three vectors

A cart moves along a track at a velocity of 3.5 cm/s. When a force is applied to the cart, its velocity increases to 8.2 cm/s. I
Lorico [155]

Answer:

3.13cm/s²

Explanation:

Given

Initial velocity u = 3.5cm/s

Final velocity v = 8.2cm/s

Time t = 1.5secs

Required

Acceleration of the cart a

To get that, we will use the equation of motion

v = u+at

Substitute the given parameters

8.2 = 3.5+1.5a

1.5a = 8.2-3.5

1.5a = 4.7

a = 4.7/1.5

a = 3.13cm/s²

Hence the acceleration to the cart is 3.13cm/s²
