Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed)²

                         = (1/2) (1.4 kg) (22.5 m/s)²

                         =    (0.7 kg)  (506.25 m²/s² )

                         =          354.375  kg-m²/s²  =  354.375 joules .

This is just the kinetic energy associated with a 1.4-kg glob of
mass sailing through space at 22.5 m/s.  In the case of a frisbee,
it's also spinning, and there's some additional kinetic energy stored
in the spin.

A 100 N force causes an object to accelerate at 2 m/s2. What is the mass of the<br> object?
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

50 kg

Explanation:

Given,

Force ( F ) = 100 N

Acceleration ( a ) = 2 m/s^2

To find : Mass ( m ) = ?

Formula : -

F = ma

m = F / a

= 100 / 2

m = 50 kg

Therefore, the mass of the object is 50 kg.

Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

A. the indices of refraction matched

Explanation:

The index of refraction, or refractive

index, is a measure of how fast light

rays travel through a given medium.

Alternatively, it could be said that

the refractive index is the measure of

the bending of a light ray when

passing from one medium to

another. Mathematically, it can be

represented as a ratio between two

different velocities – the velocity of

light in vacuum and the velocity of

light in a given medium.

For example, try putting a pencil in a jar full of water. If you look at the pencil from above, it would look as though the pencil has bent in the water. That happens due to the refraction of light. It occurs because as light rays enter water, they slow down, as the speed of light in water is lower than the speed of light in air. The magnitude of how much a medium refracts a light ray is determined by the index

Helga [31]

Answer:

3.4\cdot 10^{-19} J

Explanation:

In order to convert the work function of cesium from electronvolts to Joules, we must use the following conversion factor:

1 eV = 1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} J

In our problem, the work function of cesium is

E=2.1 eV

so, we can convert it into Joules by using the following proportion:

1 eV : 1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J = 2.1 eV : x\\x=\frac{(1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J)(2.1 eV)}{1 eV}=3.4\cdot 10^{-19} J
