Answer:

Chemical energy

Explanation:

The energy held in the foods molecules a lunch pack is composed of is chemical energy.

They occur within food substances which originates from plants and animals as giant organic molecules.

Since food is often derived from plants and animals.
Plants produce their own food by producing macromolecules from simple inorganic substances in the environment.
Animals takes up these food and build their own body through it.
Plants and animal parts constitutes organic molecules in which chemical energy is duly stored.
When the molecules are broken down, they released their chemical potential energy into heat energy.

A sculpture is suspended in equilibrium by two cables, one from a wall and the other

aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

$T_1=6655.295917 \approx 6655.3N$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Angle of cable 2 $\theta=37.0\textdegree$

Weight of sculpture $W=5000 N$

Generally the Tension from cable 2 $T_2$ is mathematically given by

$T_2sin37\textdegree=5000N$

$T_2=5000N/sin37\textdegree$

$T_2=8308.2N$

Generally the Tension from Cable 1 $T_1$ is mathematically given by

$T_1=T_2 cos37\textdegree$

$T_1=8308.2* cos 37\textdegree$

$T_1=6655.295917 \approx 6655.3N$

A railroad track and a road cross at right angles. An observer stands on the road and watches an eastbound train traveling at 60

mamaluj [8]

Answer:

After 4 s of passing through the intersection, the train travels with 57.6 m/s

Solution:

As per the question:

Suppose the distance to the south of the crossing watching the east bound train be x = 70 m

Also, the east bound travels as a function of time and can be given as:

y(t) = 60t

Now,

To calculate the speed, z(t) of the train as it passes through the intersection:

Since, the road cross at right angles, thus by Pythagoras theorem:

$z(t) = \sqrt{x^{2} + y(t)^{2}}$

$z(t) = \sqrt{70^{2} + 60t^{2}}$

Now, differentiate the above eqn w.r.t 't':

$\frac{dz(t)}{dt} = \frac{1}{2}.\frac{1}{sqrt{3600t^{2} + 4900}}\times 2t\times 3600$

$\frac{dz(t)}{dt} = \frac{1}{sqrt{3600t^{2} + 4900}}\times 3600t$

For t = 4 s:

$\frac{dz(4)}{dt} = \frac{1}{sqrt{3600\times 4^{2} + 4900}}\times 3600\times 4 = 57.6\ m/s$

A car traveling at 60 mph has how much more energy than a car going at 15 mph?

VikaD [51]

Answer:

No, if a car is going faster. The RPM is obviously higher. If that is higher, you can burn through gas and energy much faster. A car going at 15mph would be cruising and wouldn't have to worry too much about burning our your vehicle.

A fly travels along the x-axis. His starting point is x = 16 m and his ending point 15x = - 25 m. His flight lasts 4.0 seconds H

gogolik [260]

Explanation:

Starting position at x = 16m

Ending position at x = -25m

Time of flight = 4s

Unknown:

Distance flown = ?

Displacement = ?

Speed = ?

Velocity = ?

Solution:

To find the distance flown, we should understand that the body is moving on the x - plane;

So distance = 16 + 25 = 41m

Displacement is 41m to the left or -x axis

Speed is the distance divided by the time taken;

Speed = $\frac{distance}{time}$ = $\frac{41}{4}$ = 10.25m/s

Velocity is 10.25m/s along -x axis
