A 10-kg object is dropped from rest. after falling a distance of 50 m, it has a speed of 26 m/s. what is the change in mechanica
likoan [24]

The change in mechanical energy caused by the dissipative resistance force is equal to, difference between the potential energy and kinetic energy of the object.

Potential energy of the object, P.E = mgh

m is mass of the object = 10 kg

g is acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

h= height from which it is dropped =50 m

Substituting the value we get,

P.E = 10×9.8×50 = 4900 J

Kinetic energy of the object, K.E = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}

v is the velocity of the object = 26 m/s²

K.E = (1/2)×10×(26)²

= 3380 J

Change in mechanical energy caused by dissipative force = P.E ₋ K.E

= 4900 ₋ 3380 = 1520 J

Write two examples of machine which increases the speed of doing work​
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Speed multipliers are useful when an object needs to move a further distance or at a higher speed. Some examples are wheels and axles and third class levers. Machines can be either simple or complex. Simple machines are machines that only use one type of machine, such as a lever or an inclined plane.

1. Use the periodic table to determine which of the following groups of elements would have properties most similar to arsenic (
Sliva [168]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

<u>The correct answer would be option D.</u>

Gallium (Ga) , germanium (Ge) , selenium (Se) , and arsenic (AS) all belong to the same group of elements referred to as the transition elements. The transition elements have partially-filled d orbital, a feature that confers some characteristic properties on the elements or their ions. These properties include:

  • <em> variable oxidation state of </em>
  • <em>formation of colored ions and compounds</em>
  • <em>catalytic property</em>
  • <em>paramagnetic compounds</em>
  • <em>etc.</em>

a fan is rotating clockwise and its acceleration has a positive sign. is the angular velocity of the fan speeding up, slowing do
balu736 [363]

Answer:

The angular velocity is slowing down.

Explanation:

  • By convention, if a rigid body is rotating clockwise, the angular velocity is negative.
  • If the angular acceleration has a positive sign, since the angular acceleration and the angular velocity have opposite signs, this means that the angular velocity is slowing down.
