Ordinary cells can convert chemical energy to electrical energy only, but rechargeable cells can also store electrical energy into chemical energy and vice versa. You will study more about it in your higher classes. secondary cells can be recharged and used again but dry cells cannot be recharged.
Complete Question:
A basketball player tosses a basketball m=1kg straight up with an initial speed of v=7.5 m/s. He releases the ball at shoulder height h= 2.15m. Let gravitational potential energy be zero at ground level
a) Give the total mechanical energy of the ball E in terms of maximum height hn it reaches, the mass m, and the gravitational acceleration g.
b) What is the height, hn in meters?
Answer:
a) Energy = mghₙ
b) Height, hₙ = 5.02 m
Explanation:
a) Total energy in terms of maximum height
Let maximum height be hₙ
At maximum height, velocity, V=0
Total mechanical energy , E = mgh + 1/2 mV^2
Since V=0 at maximum height, the total energy in terms of maximum height becomes
Energy = mghₙ
b) Height, hₙ in meters
mghₙ = mgh + 1/2 mV^2
mghₙ = m(gh + 1/2 V^2)
Divide both sides by mg
hₙ = h + 0.5 (V^2)/g
h = 2.15m
g = 9.8 m/s^2
V = 7.5 m/s
hₙ = 2.15 + 0.5(7.5^2)/9.8
hₙ = 2.15 + 2.87
hₙ = 5.02 m
Answer:
v = 12.12 m/s
Explanation:
Given that,
The mass of the cart, m = 75 kg
The roller coaster begins 15 m above the ground.
We need to find the velocity of the cart halfway to the ground. Let the velocity be v. Using the conservation of energy at this position, h = 15/2 = 7.5 m
So, the velocity of the cart is 12.12 m/s.
Distance= Time×Speed
= 1800×1.5
= 2700 m
I am not sure it's right. the question itself is confusing.
They begin to adapt into their new location. They then end up having adaptations to help them survive.
