1. A spring or elastic can be stretched to store energy as it wants to return to rest.

2. Gravitational every can be is stored by moving a ball against gravity when lifted then released when bounced.

3. Separating two charged plates will store energy as the plates want to return to their original position.

A body is thrown up with a velocity of 78.4 m per second.How high will it rise and how much time it will take to return to its p
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

The maximum height reached by the body is 313.6 m

The time to return to its point of projection is 8 s.

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the body, u = 78.4 m/s

at maximum height (h) the final velocity of the body (v) = 0

The following equation is applied to determine the maximum height reached by the body;

v² = u² - 2gh

0 = u² - 2gh

2gh = u²

h = u²/2g

h = (78.4²) / (2 x 9.8)

h = 313.6 m

The time to return to its point of projection is calculated as follows;

at maximum height, the final velocity becomes the initial velocity = 0

h = v + ¹/₂gt²

h = 0 + ¹/₂gt²

h =  ¹/₂gt²

2h = gt²

t² = 2h/g

t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} } \\\\t = \sqrt{\frac{2\times 313.6}{9.8} }\\\\t = 8 \ s

A car travels for 10s at a steady speed of 20 m/s along a straight road. The traffic lights ahead change to red, and the car slo
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

The right solution is "2.5 m/s²". A further explanation is given below.

Explanation:

The given values are:

Initial velocity,

= 20 m/s

Final velocity,

= 0 m/s

Time,

= 8 s

As we know,

⇒  Acceleration=\frac{Final \ velocity-Initial \ velocity}{2}

On substituting the values, we get

⇒                       =\frac{0-20}{8}

⇒                       =\frac{-20}{8}

⇒                       =-2.5 \ m/s^2

krek1111 [17]

Answer:

The wall is 680 meter away from the person.

Explanation:

Given data

Speed of sound = 340 \frac{m}{s}

Given that Persons said hello toward the opposite side she has an echo hello 4 seconds later means it takes 2 seconds for the sound to reach the wall & again 2 seconds to reach the persons ear.

Therefore the distance between the person & wall is

D = speed × Time

D = 340 × 2

D = 680 meter

Therefore the wall is 680 meter away from the person.

A constant force of 53 newtons was applied to a 12-kilogram mass for 15 seconds. a.) What was the change in momentum of the mass
vazorg [7]

Explanation:

Impulse = change in momentum

FΔt = Δp

(53 N) (15 s) = Δp

Δp = 795 kg m/s

For constant mass:

Δp = m Δv

795 kg m/s = (12 kg) Δv

Δv = 66.25 m/s

Rounding to two significant figures, Δp = 800 kg m/s and Δv = 66 m/s.
