A ball is dropped from the top of a cliff. By the time it reaches the ground, all of its gravitational potential energy has been

transferred into kinetic energy. If the ball is travelling at 20m/s when it hits the ground, what height was it dropped from? (Assume that the gravitational field strength is 10N/kg.)

Answer:

20 m

Explanation:

Initial potential energy = final kinetic energy

mgh = 1/2 mv²

gh = 1/2 v²

h = v² / (2g)

Given v = 20 m/s and g = 10 m/s²:

h = (20 m/s)² / (2 × 10 m/s²)

h = 20 m

An ice cream machine produced 44 ice creams per minute. After reconditioning, its speed increase to 55 ice creams per minute. By
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

an ice cream machine produced 44 ice cream per minute.

Now, after reconditioning it  speeds up to 55 ice cream per minute.

=> 55 - 44 = 11

=> 11 / 44 = 0.25

=> 0.25 * 100% = 25%.

thus it increased it production to 25%.

Block 1, of mass m₁ = 1.30 kg , moves along a frictionless air track with speed v₁ = 29.0 m/s. It collides with block 2, of mass
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

a. 37.7 kgm/s b. 0.94 m/s c. -528.85 J

Explanation:

a. The initial momentum of block 1 of m₁ = 1.30 kg with speed v₁ = 29.0 m/s is p₁ = m₁v₁ = 1.30 kg × 29.0 m/s = 37.7 kgm/s

The initial momentum of block 2 of m₁ = 39.0 kg with speed v₂ = 0 m/s since it is initially at rest is p₁ = m₁v₁ = 39.0 kg × 0 m/s = 0 kgm/s

So, the magnitude of the total initial momentum of the two-block system = (37.7 + 0) kgm/s = 37.7 kgm/s

b. Since the blocks stick together after the collision, their final momentum is p₂ = (m₁ + m₂)v where v is the final speed of the two-block system.

p₂ = (1.3 + 39.0)v = 40.3v

From the principle of conservation of momentum,

p₁ = p₂

37.7 kgm/s = 40.3v

v = 37.7/40.3 = 0.94 m/s

So the final velocity of the two-block system is 0.94 m/s

c. The change in kinetic energy of the two-block system is ΔK = K₂ - K₁ where K₂ = final kinetic energy of the two-block system = 1/2(m₁ + m₂)v² and K₁ = final kinetic energy of the two-block system = 1/2m₁v₁²

So, ΔK = K₂ - K₁ = 1/2(m₁ + m₂)v² - 1/2m₁v₁² = 1/2(1.3 + 39.0) × 0.94² - 1/2 × 1.3 × 29.0² = 17.805 J - 546.65 J = -528.845 J ≅ -528.85 J
