what is the kinetic energy of a 1 kilogram ball is thrown into the air with an initial velocity of 3 m/sec

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Data:
m (mass) = 1 Kg
s (speed) = 3 m/s
Kinetic energy = ? (Joule)

Formula (Kinetic energy)
$E_{k} = \frac{m*s^2}{2}$

Solving:
$E_{k} = \frac{m*s^2}{2}$
$E_{k} = \frac{1*3^2}{2}$
$E_{k} = \frac{1*9}{2}$
$E_{k} = \frac{9}{2}$
$\boxed{\boxed{E_{k} = 4.5\:J}}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark$

A ventilating fan is operated by 0.5hp electric motor. How much work in joules can the fan do in 3 hours? (I need the answer asa

shtirl [24]

Answer:

Power= 0.5hp = 375W

T = 3hrs = 10800s

Power = Work done/ Time

Work = Power * Time = 375 * 10800 = 4050000J

you and a friend setup an umbrella and chairs at a beach. your friend goes into the surf zone while you relax on the sand. sever

Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

Backwash effect

Explanation:

Your friend moved along the shore due to ; The swash effect and the Backwash effect

Swash effect is caused by the upsurge of water up along the slopping front of the beach and this same upsurge in water moves back into the beach in what is known as the backwash effect hence the movement of your friend form where they were in the surf zone to another position still within the surface zone is caused by the BACKWASH EFFECT

Answer:

An increase in air temperature because of its compression.

Explanation:

The Gay-Lussac's Law states that a gas pressure is directly proportional to its temperature in an enclosed system to constant volume.

$P = kT$

<em>where P: is the gas pressure, T: is the gas temperature and k: is a constant.</em>

Therefore, due to Gay-Lussac's Law, when the plunger is pushed down very rapidly, the pressure of the air increase, which leads to its temperature increase. That is why cotton flashes and burns.

I hope it helps you!

At its Ames Research Center, NASA uses its large "20-G" centrifuge to test the effects of very large accelerations ("hypergravit

Over [174]

Answer:

v=32.9m/s

Explanation:

The acceleration needed to mantain a circular motion of radius r and speed v is given by the equation $a=v^2/r$

This is the centripetal acceleration. The person will feel what is called a centrifugal acceleration, of the same value, because he is not in an inertial frame (thus subject to fictitious forces, product of inertia).

We want to know the speed of his head when it is subject to 12.5 times the value of the acceleration of gravity while moving on a 8.84m radius circle, so we must do:

$v=\sqrt{ar} = \sqrt{12.5gr}=\sqrt{(12.5)(9.8m/s)(8.84m)}=32.9m/s$
