Kinetic Energy,K.E=1/2MV²

mass,m=16kg

velocity,v=4m/s

K.E=1/2×16×4²

=128kgm²/s²

=128 Joules

Given:

Mass(m)=16Kg

Velocity (v)=4m/s

Kinetic energy=1/2mv^2

Where m is the mass

v is the velocity

Kinetic energy=1/2(16x4x4)

Kinetic energy= 128J

The force between two charged bodies is called ______________.
stepladder [879]

The Coulomb force between two or more charged bodies is the force between them due to Coulomb's law. If the particles are both positively or negatively charged, the force is repulsive; if they are of opposite charge, it is attractive. ... Like the gravitational force, the Coulomb force is an inverse square law.

A gas sample is confined within a chamber that has a movable piston. A small load is placed on the piston; and the system is all
timurjin [86]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Total weight of the piston, W = F = 70 N

Area of the piston, a=5\times 10^{-4}\ m^2

Let P is the pressure exerted on the piston by the gas. The force per unit area is called the pressure exerted pressure of the gas. Mathematically, it is given by :

P=\dfrac{F}{A}

P=\dfrac{70\ N}{5\times 10^{-4}\ m^2}

P=1.4\times 10^5\ Pa

We know that the atmospheric pressure is given by :

P_o=1.013\times 10^5\ Pa

So, the pressure is given by :

p=P+P_o

p=1.4\times 10^5+1.013\times 10^5

p=2.41\times 10^5\ Pa

Hence, this is the required solution.

Grace [21]

Answer:

68.585m/sec , 779.1 N

Explanation:

To feel weightless, centripetal acceleration must equal g (9.8m/sec^2). The accelerations then cancel.

From centripetal motion.

F =( mv^2)/2

But since we are dealing with weightlessness

r = 480m

g = 9.8m/s^2

M also cancels, so forget M.

V^2 = Fr

V = √ Fr

V =√ (9.8 x 480) = 4704

= 68.585m/sec.

b) Centripetal acceleration = (v^2/2r) = (68.585^2/960) = 4704/960

= 4.9m/sec^2.

Weight (force) = (mass x acceleration) = 159kg x (g - 4.9)

159kg × ( 9.8-4.9)

159kg × 4.9

= 779.1N

The property of matter that determines the direction of heat flow is the
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

Temperature

Explanation:

The heat flows from high temperature to low temperature.So we can say that temperature is the property that decide the direction of heat flow.Like in the electric system current flow high voltage to low voltage ,so we can say that voltage is the property which determine the direction of current flow.

So the answer is Temperature.
