Which has more KE a baseball traveling at 50 mph or a baseball travelling at 100 mph? Explain.

Physics
1 answer:
Trava [24]3 years ago
6 0
A baseball traveling at 100 mph has more kinetic energy than a baseball traveling at 50 mph because the kinetic energy = 1/2 x mass x velocity. Since the baseballs should have the same mass, the velocity is what will determine which ball has more kinetic energy. Since the 100 mph baseball has a higher velocity than the 50 mph baseball, it has more kinetic energy.

Two identical trucks have mass 5100 kg when empty, and the maximum permissible load for each is 8000 kg. the first truck, carryi
Oksanka [162]
<span>The 2nd truck was overloaded with a load of 16833 kg instead of the permissible load of 8000 kg. The key here is the conservation of momentum. For the first truck, the momentum is 0(5100 + 4300) The second truck has a starting momentum of 60(5100 + x) And finally, after the collision, the momentum of the whole system is 42(5100 + 4300 + 5100 + x) So let's set the equations for before and after the collision equal to each other. 0(5100 + 4300) + 60(5100 + x) = 42(5100 + 4300 + 5100 + x) And solve for x, first by adding the constant terms 0(5100 + 4300) + 60(5100 + x) = 42(14500 + x) Getting rid of the zero term 60(5100 + x) = 42(14500 + x) Distribute the 60 and the 42. 60*5100 + 60x = 42*14500 + 42x 306000 + 60x = 609000 + 42x Subtract 42x from both sides 306000 + 18x = 609000 Subtract 306000 from both sides 18x = 303000 And divide both sides by 18 x = 16833.33 So we have the 2nd truck with a load of 16833.33 kg, which is well over it's maximum permissible load of 8000 kg. Let's verify the results by plugging that mass into the before and after collision momentums. 60(5100 + 16833.33) = 60(21933.33) = 1316000 42(5100 + 4300 + 5100 + 16833.33) = 42(31333.33) = 1316000 They match. The 2nd truck was definitely over loaded.</span>

Explain how Pascal's principle can be used to design a fluid power system and describe how a fluid power system works.
zhenek [66]
Pascal's law of fluid transfer states that when there is an increase in fluid pressure, the rest of the extrinsic variables also increases. For example, in a flow of liquid in an orifice, there is a contraction of diameter in the orifice part. The fluid that will go in there increases in pressure and thereby an increase in velocity as well.

What is the force felt by the electrons and the nuclei in the rod when the external field described in the problem introduction
fomenos

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the uploaded image

Answer:

The nuclei experience a force that will move it to the right of the conductor rod while the electrons experience a force that will move it to the left side of the conductor rod.

Explanation:

The force that act on the charges(both the positive and the negative charge ) is Mathematically expressed as

                      F = qE   => E = F/q

where F is the force, q is the charge and E is the electric field

we can see that the force is directly proportional to the electric field,so an increase in the electric field would increase the force.

we can also see that the electric field is given as force per unit charge and generally the direction of this field is taken to be the direction of the force it would exert on a positive test charge

Now from the question we are being told that the external electric field is the direction of the positive x axis

Hence this field would drive the positive charge i.e the nuclei to the right.

In order to further explain let consider this

Generally the electric field is always radially outward  originating from a positive point charge and radially in toward a negative point charge.

what  this means for this question, is that the positive point charge is on the left side of the electric field while the negative point charge is at the right side of the field.

According to Coulomb's law which states that unlike term attract while like terms repel, it means that  the electron would move to the left of the conductor rod   while the nuclei would move to the right side of the conductor rod.

A 1.05 kg block slides with a speed of 0.865 m/s on a frictionless horizontal surface until it encounters a spring with a force
djyliett [7]

Answer:

a) U = 0 J    

k = 0.393 J

E = 0.393 J

b) U = 0.0229J

k = 0.370 J

E = 0.393 J

c) U = 0.0914 J

k = 0.302 J

E = 0.393 J

d) U = 0.206 J

k = 0.187 J

E = 0.393 J

e) U = 0.366 J

k = 0.027 J

E = 0.393 J

Explanation:

Hi there!

The equations of kinetic energy and elastic potential energy are as follows:

k = 1/2 · m · v²

U = 1/2 · ks · x²

Where:

m = mass of the block.

v = velocity.

ks = spring constant.

x = displacement of the string.

a) When the spring is not compressed, the spring potential energy will be zero:

U = 1/2 · ks · x²

U = 1/2 · 457 N/m · (0 cm)²

U = 0 J

The kinetic energy of the block will be:

k = 1/2 · m · v²

k = 1/2 · 1.05 kg · (0.865 m/s)²

k = 0.393 J

The mechanical energy will be:

E = k + U = 0.393 J + 0 J = 0.393 J

This energy will be conserved, i.e., it will remain constant because there is no work done by friction nor by any other dissipative force (like air resistance). This means that the kinetic energy will be converted only into spring potential energy (there is no thermal energy due to friction, for example).

b) The spring potential energy will be:

U = 1/2 · 457 N/m · (0.01 m)²

U = 0.0229 J

Since the mechanical energy has to remain constant, we can use the equation of mechanical energy to obtain the kinetic energy:

E = k + U

0.393 J = k + 0.0229 J

0.393 J - 0.0229 J = k

k = 0.370 J

c) The procedure is now the same. Let´s calculate the spring potential energy with x = 0.02 m.

U = 1/2 · 457 N/m · (0.02 m)²

U = 0.0914 J

Using the equation of mechanical energy:

E = k + U

0.393 J = k + 0.0914 J

k = 0.393 J - 0.0914 J = 0.302 J

d) U = 1/2 · 457 N/m · (0.03 m)²

U = 0.206 J

E = 0.393 J

k = E - U = 0.393 J - 0.206 J

k = 0.187 J

e) U = 1/2 · 457 N/m · (0.04 m)²

U = 0.366 J

E = 0.393 J

k = E - U = 0.393 J - 0.366 J = 0.027 J.
