Kevin jumps straight up in the air to a height of 1 meter.At the top of his jump, he has potential energy of 1,000 joules.Answer
Llana [10]
Gravitational potential energy can be given by the equation
PE = mgh
where m is the mass,
g is the gravitational constant 9.81 or 10 depending on rounding
and h is the height

well weight is a force equiavlent to
W= m*g

so comparing that to the potential energy equation, divide the potential energy by the height and you will get weight in Newtons

7. A golfer hits a golf ball a through a horizontal displacement of 80m. The time of flight for the ball was 1.8
Darya [45]

Answer:

44.4 m/s

Explanation:

d = 80 m, t = 1.8 s, find v

d = v*t

v = d/t = 80/1.8 = 44.4 m/s

A hockey player skates with an average speed of 8.25 m/s. The distance the player will travel in 5.60 s is __________ .
OverLord2011 [107]
<h2>Greetings!</h2>

To find this value, you need to remember the speed formula:

3 = 6 / 2

Speed = distance ÷ time

Rearrange to make distance the subject:

Distance = speed * time

Simply plug these values into this:

5.6 * 8.25 = 46.2

<h3>So the player will travel 46.2 metres!</h3>
<h2>Hope this helps!</h2>

A 0.050 kg bullet strikes a 5.0 kg wooden block with a velocity of 909 m/s and embeds itself in the block which fies off its sta
serg [7]

Answer:

The final velocity of the bullet is 9 m/s.

Explanation:

We have,

Mass of a bullet is, m = 0.05 kg

Mass of wooden block is, M = 5 kg

Initial speed of bullet, v = 909 m/s

The bullet embeds itself in the block which flies off its stand. Let V is the final velocity of the bullet. The this case, momentum of the system remains conserved. So,

mv=(m+M)V\\\\V=\dfrac{mv}{m+M}\\\\V=\dfrac{0.05\times 909}{0.050+5}\\\\V=9\ m/s

So, the final velocity of the bullet is 9 m/s.

How to solve number 10
Vinil7 [7]

The 'formulas' to use are just the definitions of 'power' and 'work':

Power = (work done) / (time to do the work)

and  

Work = (force) x (distance) .

Combine these into one. Take the definition of 'Work', and write it in place of 'work' in the definition of power.

Power = (force x distance) / (time)

From the sheet, we know the power, the distance, and the time.  So we can use this one formula to find the force.

Power = (force x distance) / (time)

Multiply each side by (time):  (Power) x (time) = (force) x (distance)

Divide each side by (distance): Force = (power x time) / (distance).

Look how neat, clean, and simple that is !

Force = (13.3 watts) x (3 seconds) / (4 meters)

Force = (13.3 x 3 / 4) (watt-seconds / meter)

Force = 39.9/4 (joules/meter)

<em>Force = 9.975 Newtons</em>

Is that awesome or what !
