1. What is the kinetic energy of a 1.75 kg ball travelling at a speed of 54 m/s?
Over [174]

Answer:

We conclude that the kinetic energy of a 1.75 kg ball traveling at a speed of 54 m/s is 2551.5 J.

Explanation:

Given

  • Mass m = 1.75 kg
  • Velocity v = 54 m/s

To determine

Kinetic Energy (K.E) = ?

We know that a body can possess energy due to its movement — Kinetic Energy.

Kinetic Energy (K.E) can be determined using the formula

K.E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

  • m is the mass (kg)
  • v is the velocity (m/s)
  • K.E is the Kinetic Energy (J)

now substituting m = 1.75, and v = 54 in the formula

K.E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

K.E=\frac{1}{2}\left(1.75\right)\left(54\right)^2

K.E=1458\times 1.75

K.E=2551.5 J

Therefore, the kinetic energy of a 1.75 kg ball traveling at a speed of 54 m/s is 2551.5 J.

What is the wavelength of a wave whose speed and period are 72.0 m/s and 5.00 s , respectively ?
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

The distance between the two successive crests of the wave is 360m

Explanation:

Wavelength is defined as the property of wave in which the distance between identical points between two successive waves are calculated

Wavelength is referred to as the <em>distance between two successive crests or troughs</em>

<em>Given that:</em>

speed = 72.0 m/s

time = 5 seconds

Using the formula

C = fλ

Where C = speed, f = freequency and λ = wavelength

F = 1 / time

F = 1/5

F = 0.2Hz

From the fomula C = fλ

make λ the subject of the formula

λ = C / f

λ = 72/0.2

<em>λ = 360m</em>

A 55-kg woman is wearing high heels. If each heel has a circular cross-section 6.0 mm in diameter and she puts all her weight on
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

The pressure exerted by the woman on the floor is 1.9061 x 10⁷ N/m²

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the woman, m = 55 kg

diameter of the circular heel, d = 6.0 mm

radius of the heel, r = 3.0 mm = 0.003 m

Cross-sectional area of the heel is given by;

A = πr²

A = π(0.003)²

A = 2.8278 x 10⁻⁵ m²

The weight of the woman is given by;

W = mg

W = 55 x 9.8

W = 539 N

The pressure exerted by the woman on the floor is given by;

P = F / A

P = W / A

P = 539 / (2.8278 x 10⁻⁵ )

P = 1.9061 x 10⁷ N/m²

Therefore, the pressure exerted by the woman on the floor is 1.9061 x 10⁷ N/m²

An atom of the element chromium has an atomic number of 24 and a mass number of 52. How many electrons are in an uncharged atom
zubka84 [21]

<span>Chromium is represented by the element Cr with an atomic number of 24 and a molar mass of 52 gram per mole. The number of protons in the Chromium atom is the atomic number, so it has 24 protons. And the protons of chromium atom is equal to the number of electrons, so 24 electrons.</span>

pantera1 [17]

answer

no

Explanation:

I do not think that I would because even though its a conductor in the insulator I think it would insulate it before it will work (not sure if that makes sense)
