What is the kinetic energy of a baseball moving at a speed of 40 m/s if the baseball has mass of 0.15 kg?

2 answers:

5 0

Kinetic Energy = 1/2 Mass (kg) * velocity squared (m/s)

KE = 1/2mV^2

KE = 1/2(0.15 kg)(40 m/s)^2

The answer is 120 joules.

0.5mv^2 > 0.5*0.15*40*40=120J

The initial velocity of a micro van is 15 m/s. It gains a velocity of 40 ms in 10 seconds. Calculate the average velocity and ac

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

${ \bf{average \: velocity = \frac{15 + 40}{2}}} \\ = 27.5 \: {ms}^{ - 1} \\ { \bf{acceleration = \frac{v - u}{t} }} \\ = \frac{40 - 15}{10} \\ = 2.5 \: {ms}^{ - 2} \\ \\ { \tt{second \: qn : }} \\ { \bf{final \: velocity =u + at }} \\ v = 0 + (5 \times 10) \\ = 50 \: {ms}^{ - 1}$

What is the acceleration of a car initially traveling at -5m/s and<br> reaching -22m/s in 3s.

lozanna [386]

Answer:

$a=-5.67\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial velocity, u = -5 m/s

Final velocity, v = -22 m/s

Time, t = 3s

We need to find the acceleration of the car. The formula of it is given by :

Acceleration,

$a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}\\\\a=\dfrac{(-22)-(-5)}{3}\\\\a=-5.67\ m/s^2$

So, the acceleration of the car is $-5.67\ m/s^2$ .

As she climbs a hill a cyclist slows down from 25 mi/hr to 6mi/hr in 10 seconds what is her acceleration

vesna_86 [32]

|Acceleration| = (change in speed) / (time for the change).

Change in speed = (6 mi/hr - 25 mi/hr) = -19 mi/hr
Time for the change = 10 sec

|Acceleration| = (-19 mi/hr) / (10 sec) = -1.9 mile per hour per second

Admittedly, that's a rather weird unit.
Other units, perhaps more comfortable ones, are:

-6,840 mi/hr²

-2.79 feet/sec²

when forces on an object are acting in the same direction, how do you add them together to find the net force?

AysviL [449]

If two forces act on an object in the same direction, the net force is equal to the sum of the two forces
