Its has the most it will have during its descent because as it goes down the kinetic energy replaces potential

At the top of its ascent, the ball has potential energy equal to

(its weight) times (the height of its ascent) .

If we knew either of those quantities, then we could give you
a number for its potential energy. But the question has no
given information.

A mass m attached to a spring of constant k is oscillating on a frictionless surface. A second mass of mass m is dropped on top

elixir [45]

Answer:

E. The period of oscillation increases.

Explanation:

The period of oscillation is:

T = 2π√(m/k)

Frequency is the inverse of period (f = 1/T), so as period increases, frequency decreases.

Increasing the mass will increase the period and decrease the frequency.

A small mailbag is released from a helicopter that is descending steadily at 3 m/s.

mario62 [17]

<u>Answer:</u>

a) Speed of mailbag after 3 seconds = 32.4 m/s

b) Package is 44.1 meter below helicopter

c) If the helicopter was rising steadily at 3.00 m/s

Speed of mailbag after 3 seconds = 26.4 m/s

Package is 44.1 meter below helicopter

<u>Explanation:</u>

a) We have equation of motion, v = u + at, where v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time taken.

Initial velocity = 3 m/s, acceleration = 9.8 $m/s^2$ and time = 3 seconds.

v = 3+9.8*3 = 32.4 m/s

Speed of mailbag after 3 seconds = 32.4 m/s

b) We have equation of motion , $s= ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2$ , s is the displacement, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time.

Velocity of helicopter = 3 m/s, time taken = 3 seconds, acceleration = 0 $m/s^2$ .

$s= 3*3+\frac{1}{2} *0*3^2\\ \\ s=9m$

Distance traveled by helicopter = 9 meter.

Velocity of package = 3 m/s, time taken = 3 seconds, acceleration = 9.8 $m/s^2$ .

$s= 3*3+\frac{1}{2} *9.8*3^2\\ \\ s= 53.1m$

Distance traveled by package = 53.1 meter.

So package is (53.1-9)meter below helicopter = 44.1 m

c) Initial velocity = -3 m/s, acceleration = 9.8 $m/s^2$ and time = 3 seconds.

v = -3+9.8*3 = 26.4 m/s

Speed of mailbag after 3 seconds = 26.4 m/s

Velocity of helicopter = -3 m/s, time taken = 3 seconds, acceleration = 0 $m/s^2$ .

$s= -3*3+\frac{1}{2} *0*3^2\\ \\ s=-9m$

Distance traveled by helicopter = 9 meter.

Velocity of package = -3 m/s, time taken = 3 seconds, acceleration = 9.8 $m/s^2$ .

$s= -3*3+\frac{1}{2} *9.8*3^2\\ \\ s= 35.1m$

Distance traveled by package = 35.1 meter.

So package is (35.1+9)meter below helicopter = 44.1 m

A 12kg cheetah accelerates 24 m/s". What is the force the cheetah needed to run?

Kobotan [32]

Answer:

288N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of Cheetah = 12kg

Acceleration = 24m/s²

Unknown:

Force needed by the cheetah to run = ?

Solution:

The force needed by the Cheetah to run is the net force.

According to Newton's law;

Force = mass x acceleration

Insert the given parameters and solve;

Force = 12 x 24 = 288N

When the palmaris longus muscle in the forearm is flexed, the wrist moves back and forth. If the muscle generates a force of 49.

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

1.1397 Nm

Explanation:

When the palmaris longus muscle in the forearm is flexed, the wrist moves back and forth.

If the muscle generates a force

$F = 49.5 N$ and $r = 2.65 cm$ , then the torque is equal to $rF$

we see that r = 2.65 cm = 0.0265 m

therefore

torque = 0.0265 x 49.5

= 1.1397 Nm

salantis [7]

Answer:

A. Time Division multiple Access (TDMA)

Explanation:

Time-division multiple access (TDMA) is a channel access method for shared-medium networks

It allows several users to share the same frequency channel by dividing the signal into different time slots. The users transmit in rapid succession, one after the other, each using its own time slot.
