Total mechanical energy = kinetic energy + potential energy
E = KE + PE
E = ½mv² + mgh
E = ½(0.1 kg)(2 m/s)² + (0.1 kg)(9.8 m/s²)(1.5 m)
E = 0.2 J + 1.47 J
E = 1.67 J

We know that:
EM=Epg+Ek
So:
Epg=mgh
Epg=0,1kg*9,8m/s²*1,5m
Epg=1,47J
Now:
Ek=1/2mv²
Ek=1/2(0,1kg)(2m/s)²
Ek=0,2J
That give us:
EM=1,47J*0,2J
EM=1,67J

The speed of sound is measured to be 340 m/s on a certain day.
ziro4ka [17]
Answer: 1,224 km/h

Explanation:

To do this, we pick the first unit and convert
Picking m first and converting to km:
Since we're converting from a non-prefix to a prefix, we divide the value by the prefix were taking it to. In this case, kilo = 10³ which means we're going to divide our value by 1000 to convert it from m to km
340 m/s ÷ 1000 = 0.34 km/s
Now, let's convert our seconds to hour:
We'll need to calculate how many hours is equivalent to one second first;
1 hr = 60×60 seconds
X hr = 1 second
*Cross multiply*
1 × 1 = X × 60 × 60
1 = 3,600 X
X = 1 / 3,600
X = 2.778×10⁻⁴ hour
So, in the place of "1 Second", we're going to be inserting 2.778×10⁻⁴ hour instead
0.34 km / s = 0.34 km / 2.778×10⁻⁴ hour
(0.34 / 2.778×10⁻⁴) km/hour
1,224 km/h.
340 m/s = 1,224 km/h

1mm is equal to .1 what
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

When you have to do an English-Metric (SI) length conversion, and you already know the English units of length (miles, yards, feet, inches, etc.), all you need to remember is one simple relationship, and you can readily convert any length in the SI system, to the equivalent length in the other.

1 foot (ft) = 0.3048 meters (m)

BIn this case you need your answer in inches. You (hopefully) know there are 12 inches in a foot, so you just do the following:

1 inch (in) = 1/12 ft = 0.3048/12 m = 0.0254 m

A runner accelerated to 4 m/s^2 for 20 seconds before winning the race.How far did he/she run?
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

s=800 m

Explanation:

Given that,

Acceleration of a runner, a = 4 m/s²

Time, t = 20 seconds

We need to find the distance covered by her. Initially, she was at rest. It means its initial velocity is equal to 0. So, using second equation of motion as follows :

s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2

Herre, u = 0

s=\dfrac{1}{2}at^2\\\\s=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 4\times (20)^2\\\\s=800\ m

So, she will cover a distance of 800 m.

An object of mass 6.00 kg falls with an aceleration of 8.00 m/s2. The magnitude of air resitance must be ____ N
allsm [11]
Using Newton's Second Law, we can find the air resistance. We know the net force is equal to mass times acceleration.F_{net} = m*a = (6.00kg)(8.00 \frac{m}{s^2}) = 48N 

F_{g} - F_{d} = 48N

48N = (6.00kg)(9.81m/s^2) - F_{d} 

F_{d} = 10.86N
