An object has a mass of 12.8 kg and a velocity of 8.4 m/s. what is the kinetic energy of the object?

1 answer:

4 0

Kinetic energy = 1/2 * mass * velocity^2
KE = 1/2*m*v^2

Given m = 12.8 kg, v = 8.4 m/s;

KE = 1/2(12.8)(8.4)^2
KE = 451.58 J
KE = 452 J

lanet R47A is a spherical planet where the gravitational acceleration on the surface is 3.45 m/s2. A satellite orbitsPlanet R47A

$2.6×10^6\:\text{m}$

Explanation:

The acceleration due to gravity g is defined as

$g = G\dfrac{M}{R^2}$

and solving for R, we find that

$R = \sqrt{\dfrac{GM}{g}}\:\:\:\:\:\:\:(1)$

We need the mass M of the planet first and we can do that by noting that the centripetal acceleration $F_c$ experienced by the satellite is equal to the gravitational force $F_G$ or

$F_c = F_G \Rightarrow m\dfrac{v^2}{r} = G\dfrac{mM}{r^2}\:\:\:\:\:(2)$

The orbital velocity v is the velocity of the satellite around the planet defined as

$v = \dfrac{2\pi r}{T}$

where r is the radius of the satellite's orbit in meters and T is the period or the time it takes for the satellite to circle the planet in seconds. We can then rewrite Eqn(2) as

$\dfrac{4\pi^2 r}{T^2} = G\dfrac{M}{r^2}$
