Answer:

The mechanical energy of this object is 10.8 Joules.

Explanation:

Mechanical energy is the sum of kinetic energy and potential energy.

M.E=P.E+K.E

M.E=mgh+\frac{1}{2}mv^2

m = mass of the object

v = velocity of the moving object

h = height at which an object is placed

g = Acceleration due to gravity

We have : m = 2 kg. v = 1 m/s , h = 1/2 m

M.E=2 kg\times 9.8 m/s^2\times \frac{1}{2}m+\frac{1}{2}\times 2 kg \times (1 m/s)^2

M.E=9.8 J+1 J=10.8 J

The mechanical energy of this object is 10.8 Joules.

lbvjy [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall consider direction towards left as positive Let the required velocity be v and let v makes an angle φ

Applying law of conservation of momentum along direction of original motion

m₁ v₁  - m₂ v₂ = m₂v₃ - m₁ v₄

0.132 x 1.25 - .143 x 1.14 = 1.03 cos43 x .143 - v cos θ

v cos θ = .8

Applying law of conservation of momentum along direction perpendicular to direction of original motion

1.03 sin 43 x .143 = .132 x v sinθ

v sinθ = .76

squaring and adding

v² = .76 ² + .8²

v = 1.1 m /s

Tan θ = .76 / .8

θ = 44°

Please help im stuck and can't find the answer sheet ANYWHERE :(​ PLEASEEEEEEEEEEE
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

All steps are 20 * 100  (break the rest into appropriate pieces)

You can multiply as follows

(2000) * ((3 * 60) + (2 * 60) + 60)

V = 2000 * 6 * 60) = 720,000 cm^3 = .72 m^3

.72 m^3 * 2400 kg / m^3 = 1728 kg

Suppose a nonconducting sphere, radius r2, has a spherical cavity of radius r1 centered at the sphere's center. Assuming the cha
leva [86]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) Between r = 0 and r = r₁

Electric field will be zero . It is so because no charge lies in between r = 0 and r = r₁ .

b ) From r = r₁ to r = r₂

At distance r , charge contained in the sphere of radius r

volume charge density x 4/3 π r³

q = Q x r³ / R³

Applying Gauss's law

4πr² E = q / ε₀

4πr² E = Q x r³ / ε₀R³

E= Q x r / (4πε₀R³)

E ∝ r .

c )

Outside of r = r₂

charge contained in the sphere of radius r = Q

Applying Gauss's law

4πr² E = q / ε₀

4πr² E = Q  / ε₀

E = Q  / 4πε₀r²

E ∝ 1 / r² .

Why is the contribution of the wavelets lying on the back of secondary wave front zero?​
Tresset [83]

Answer:

The contribution of the wavelets lying on the back of the wave front is zero because of something known as the Obliquity Factor. It is assumed that the amplitude of the secondary wavelets is not independent of the direction of propagation, Sources: byju's.com
