Answer:

27.1 m/s

Explanation:

Given that at a race car driving event, a staff member notices that the skid marks left by the race car are 9.06 m long. The very experienced staff member knows that the deceleration of a car when skidding is -40.52 m/s2.

Using third equation of motion,

V^2 = U^2 + 2aS

Since the car is decelerating, the final velocity V = 0

Substitute all the parameter into the equation above,

0 = U^2 - 2 * 40.52 * 9.06

U^2 = 734.22

U = \sqrt{734.22}

U = 27.096

U = 27.1 m/s  approximately

Therefore, the staff member can estimate for the original speed of the race car to be 27.1 m/s if it came to a stop during the skid

A 10 Kg dog is running with a speed of 5.0 m/s what is the minimum work required to stop the dog
ra1l [238]

Answer:

25J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the dog  = 10kg

Speed of the dog  = 5m/s

Unknown:

The minimum energy required to stop the dog  = ?

Solution:

The dog is moving with a kinetic energy and to stop the dog, an equal amount of kinetic energy generated must be applied to the dog.

 To find the kinetic energy;

        K.E  = \frac{1}{2} m v²

m is the mass

v is the velocity

Now insert the parameters and solve;

      K.E  =  \frac{1}{2}  x 10 x 5  = 25J

One simple use of the elements of the electromagnetic spectrum that we use during our everyday lives is our daily use of microwave radiation. microwave radiation is absorbed by water molecules which heats up and cooks the food whilst killing bacteria. Another would be ultraviolet radiation which we use daily in things such as light bulbs. The sun also uses this. Lastly, we use radio waves constantly. May it be tv programs, radio, or our cell phones.

May you help me answer this​
Firdavs [7]

1) See three Kepler laws below

2a) Acceleration is 2.2 m/s^2

2b) Tension in the string: 27.4 N

3a) Kinetic energy is the energy of motion, potential energy is the energy due to the position

3b) The kinetic energy of the object is 2.25 J

Explanation:

1)

There are three Kepler's law of planetary motion:

  1. 1st law: the planets orbit the sun in elliptical orbits, with the Sun located at one of the 2 focii
  2. 2nd law: a segment connecting the Sun with each planet sweeps out equal areas in equal time intervals. A direct consequence of this is that, when a planet is further from the sun, it travels slower, and when it is closer to the sun, it travels faster
  3. 3rd law: the square of the period of revolution of a planet around the sun is directly proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis of its orbit. Mathematically, T^2 \propto r^3, where T is the period of revolution and r is the semi-major axis of the orbit

2a)

To solve the problem, we have to write the equation of motions for each block along the direction parallel to the incline.

For the block on the right, we have:

M g sin \theta - T = Ma (1)

where

Mg sin \theta is the component of the weight of the block parallel to the incline, with

M = 8.0 kg (mass of the block)

g=9.8 m/s^2 (acceleration of gravity)

\theta=35^{\circ}

T = tension in the string

a = acceleration of the block

For the block on the left, we have similarly

T-mg sin \theta = ma (2)

where

m = 3.5 kg (mass of the block)

\theta=35^{\circ}

From (2) we get

T=mg sin \theta + ma

Substituting into (1),

M g sin \theta - mg sin \theta - ma = Ma

Solving for a,

a=\frac{M-m}{M+m}g sin \theta=\frac{8.0-3.5}{8.0+3.5}(9.8)(sin 35^{\circ})=2.2 m/s^2

2b)

The tension in the string can be calculated using the equation

T=mg sin \theta + ma

where

m = 3.5 kg (mass of lighter block)

g=9.8 m/s^2

\theta=35^{\circ}

a=2.2 m/s^2 (acceleration found in part 2)

Substituting,

T=(3.5)(9.8)(sin 35^{\circ}) +(3.5)(2.2)=27.4 N

3a)

The kinetic energy of an object is the energy due to its motion. It is calculated as

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its speed

The potential energy is the energy possessed by an object due to its position in a gravitational field. For an object near the Earth's surface, it is given by

U=mgh

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the strength of the gravitational field

h is the heigth of the object relative to the ground

3b)

The kinetic energy of an object is given by

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its speed

For the object in this problem,

m = 500 g = 0.5 kg

v = 3 m/s

Substituting, we find its kinetic energy:

K=\frac{1}{2}(0.5)(3)^2=2.25 J

A ball is thrown straight up with a speed of 30 m/s, and air resistance is negligible. How long does it take the ball to reach t
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

3 seconds

Explanation:

Applying,

Applying,

v = u±gt................ Equation 1

Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, t = time, g = acceleration due to gravity.

From the question,

Given: v = 0 m/s ( at the maximum height), u = 30 m/s

Constant: g = -10 m/s

Substitute these values into equation 1

0 = 30-10t

10t = 30

t = 30/10

t = 3 seconds
