Answer:

KE=48J

Explanation:

You use the equation:

KE=1/2mv^2

KE=1/2(1.5kg)(8.0m/s)^2

KE=48J

Given : A toy plane has a mass of 1.5kg . It is flying in air at a speed of 8m/s .

To Find : The Kinetic energy of the plane .

Solution : The mass of the toy plane is 1.5kg and Velocity is 8.0 m / s . So we know the formula to find the kinetic energy as ,

$\boxed{\red{\bf Energy_{Kinetic}=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2}}$

On substituting the respective values,

⇒ KE = ½mv².

⇒ KE = ½ × 1.5 kg × (8 m/s)².

⇒ KE = ½ × 1.5 kg × 64m²/s² .

⇒ KE = 48 J .

Hence the Kinetic energy of the plane is 48Joules.

The peak magnetic field of the electromagnetic wave in the red part of the visible spectrum is 9.67 x 10⁻¹⁰ T.

<h3>Relationship between electric and magnetic field</h3>

The relationship between electric and magnetic field at a given peak electric field is given as;

c = (E₀) / (B₀)

where;

c is speed of light
E₀ is the peak electric field
B₀ is the peak magnetic field

B₀ = E₀ / c

B₀ = (2.9) / (3 x 10⁹)

B₀ = 9.67 x 10⁻¹⁰ T

Thus, the peak magnetic field of the electromagnetic wave in the red part of the visible spectrum is 9.67 x 10⁻¹⁰ T.

A 2430 pound roller coaster starts from rest and is launched such that it crests a 105 ft high hill with a speed of 59 mph. The

Rudik [331]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Weight of roller coaster is $W=2430\ pound$

mass of roller coaster $m=\frac{W}{g}=\frac{2430}{32.2}=75.45$

Distance traveled by roller coaster $d=396\ ft$

drag force $f_d=85\ pounds$

velocity at top $v=59 mph\approx 86.53\ ft/s$

Suppose E is the initial energy

Conserving Energy at bottom and top

$E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2+mgh+f_d\cdot d$

$E=0.5\times 75.45\times 86.53^2+2430\times 105+85\times 396$

$E=2.9\times 10^5\ foot-pound$

spin [16.1K]

Los Angeles lies on the Pacific plate, San Francisco lies on the North American plate, and the meeting point of the two cities is mathematically given as

T = 120 x 105 years

<h3>What is the meeting point of the two plates?</h3>

Generally, the equation for Distance is mathematically given as

D = Rate x Time

Therefore

T = D/R

T = (600 x 105) / 5

T = 120 x 105 years

In conclusion, the meeting point of the two plates will be

T = 120 x 105 years
