Mechanical Energy = PE + KE

PE: mgh = 200 x 9.8 x 18 = 35280

PE: 35280 Joules

KE: 1/2mv^2 = 1/2 x 200 x 16^2 = 25600

KE: 25600 Joules

ME: 35280 + 25600

ME: 60,880J

Ben hit a 0.25kg nail into a wood with a 5.2kg hammer. If the hammer moves witht the speed of 52 m/s and two fifth of its kineti
Art [367]

Answer:

Explanation:

Mass of nails is 0.25kg

Mass of hammer 5.2kg

Speed of hammer is =52m/s

Then, Ben kinetic energy is given as

K.E= ½mv²

K.E= ½×5.2×52²

K.E= 7030.4J

Given that, two-fifth of kinetic energy is converted to internal energy

Internal energy (I.E) = 2/5 × K.E

Internal energy (I.E) = 2/5 × 7030.4

I.E=2812.16J.

Energy increase is total Kinetic energy - the internal energy

∆Et= K.E-I.E

∆Et= 7030.4 - 2812.16

∆Et= 4218.24J

When you apply a horizontal force of 76 N to a block, the block moves across the floor at a constant speed ().When you apply a f
elena-s [515]

Answer:

Explanation:

When we apply a horizontal force of 76 N to a block, the block moves across the floor at a constant speed. So net force on the block is zero .

It implies that a force ( frictional ) acts on it which is equal to 76 N in opposite direction ( friction )

When we apply  a greater force on it it starts moving with acceleration .

This time kinetic friction acts on it due to rough ground equal to 76 N .This is limiting friction ( maximum friction )

Net force on the body in later case

= 89 - 76

= 13 N

Force by ground on the block in horizontal direction = 76 N ( FRICTIONAL FORCE )

The potential energy of a watermelon is 15.0 J. The watermelon is 3.0 m high. What is the mass of the watermelon?
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

m = 0.51[kg]

Explanation:

Potential energy is defined as the product of mass by gravity by height.

E_{pot}=m*g*h

where:

Epot = potential energy = 15 [J]

m = mass [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.8 [m/s²]

h = elevation = 3 [m]

Now replacing:

E_{pot}=m*g*h\\15=m*9.8*3\\m = 0.51[kg]

What might be a reason conflict arises?
Katena32 [7]

D- all of the above

Explanation:

Conflict is a clash between different ideas and people.

  • It can be as a result of the misunderstanding of another person's point of view. This is one of the leading causes of conflict. A party can take another party's view verbatim without understanding the context behind a reasoning. Through this, conflict can ensue.
  • It can also be due to non-compatible personalities. This can be between an extrovert and introvert or a blend of them.
  • Different values can also lead to conflict. It can be a cultural or religious thing.
