1/2mv^2

1/2x12x10^2=600J

The kinetic energy is 600J

Answer:

The kinetic energy of the object is 600 J

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the object, m = 12 kg

Velocity of the object, v = 10 m/s

Kinetic energy of the object is given by :

$E=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

$E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 12\times (10)^2$

E = 600 J

So, the kinetic energy of the object is 600 J. Hence, this is the required solution.

A baseball player leads off the game and hits a long home run. The ball leaves the bat at an angle of 70.0 from the horizontal w

professor190 [17]

Answer: 211.059 m

Explanation:

We have the following data:

$\theta=70\°$ The angle at which the ball leaves the bat

$V_{o}=55 m/s$ The initial velocity of the ball

$g=-9.8 m/s^{2}$ The acceleration due gravity

We need to find how far (horizontally) the ball travels in the air: $x$

Firstly we need to know this velocity has two components:

<u>Horizontally:</u>

$V_{ox}=V_{o}cos \theta$ (1)

$V_{ox}=55 m/s cos(70\°)=18.811 m/s$ (2)

<u>Vertically:</u>

$V_{oy}=V_{o}sin \theta$ (3)

$V_{oy}=55 m/s sin(70\°)=51.683 m/s$ (4)

On the other hand, when we talk about parabolic movement (as in this situation) the ball reaches its maximum height just in the middle of this parabola, when $V=0$ and the time $t$ is half the time it takes the complete parabolic path.

So, if we use the following equation, we will find $t$ :

$V=V_{o}+gt=0$ (5)

Isolating $t$ :

$t=\frac{-V_{o}}{g}$ (6)

$t=\frac{-55 m/s}{-9.8 m/s^{2}}$ (7)

$t=5.61 s$ (8)

Now that we have the time it takes to the ball to travel half of is path, we can find the total time $T$ it takes the complete parabolic path, which is twice $t$ :

$T=2t=2(5.61 s)=11.22 s$ (9)

With this result in mind, we can finally calculate how far the ball travels in the air:

$x=V_{ox}T$ (10)

Substituting (2) and (9) in (10):

$x=(18.811 m/s)(11.22 s)$ (11)

Finally:

$x=211.059 m$

How much energy is needed to raise a 50kg block up from the ground to a height of 5 meters?

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

The answer to your question is Pe = 2452.5 J

Explanation:

Data

mass = 50 kg

height = 5 m

gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Process

The energy of this process is Potential energy which is proportional to the mass of the body, the gravity and the height of the body.

Pe = mgh

Substitution

Pe = (50)(5)(9.81)

Simplification

Pe = 2452.5 J

A train starting from rest picks up a speed of 20 m/s in 20 s while travelling on a straight path. It continues to move at the s

Andrej [43]

Answer:

$1300 m$

Explanation:

As the path is straight, so the speed is equivalent to velocity. Now. assuming that the acceleration and deceleration of the train are constant. So, change of velocity with respect to time for acceleration as well as deceleration is constant. Hence, the slope of the speed-time graph is constant for the time of acceleration as well as deceleration. The speed for the time from $20 s$ to $70 s$ is constant, so slope for this interval of time is zero. The speed-time graph is shown in the figure.

The total distance covered by the train during the entire journey is the area of the speed-time graph.

Area $=\frac{1}{2}(20\times 20)+ 50\times 20+\frac{1}{2}(20\times 10)$

$=200+1000+100$

$=1300$

As velocity is in $m/s$ and time is in $s$ so the unit of area is $m$

Hence, the total distance is $1300m$ .

Which of the following is not a part of the modern theory of evolution?

telo118 [61]

Answer:

Explanation:

D) Evolution proceeds in the direction desired by members of a generation is not the modern theory of evolution.

Evolution can not proceed in the direction as desire by the members of the generation as No matter how hard you and your friends wish that your children will be born with the ability to fly unassisted, the kids will have to use airlines like the rest of us. All the rest of these contribute to evolution
