Answer:

7.59 m/s

Explanation:

Kinetic Energy: This is defined as the energy possessed by a body due to its motion. The S.I unit of kinetic energy is Joules (J).

Mathematically, kinetic energy is represented as,

Ek = 1/2mv²................................ Equation 1

Where Ek = Kinetic Energy, m = mass, v = velocity.

From the question,

Kinetic energy of the rabbit = Kinetic energy of the setter

1/2m₁v₁² = 1/2m₂v₂².......................... equation 2

Where m₁ = mass of the rabbit, v₁ = velocity of the rabbit, m₂ = mass of the setter, v₂ = velocity of the setter.

making v₁ the subject of the equation

v₁ = v₂√(m₂/m₁)............................ Equation 3

Given: m₁ = 5.0 kg, m₂ = 12.0 kg, v₂ = 4.9 m/s.

Substituting into equation 3

v₁ = 4.9√(12/5)

v₁  = 4.9√2.4

v₁ = 4.9×1.549

v₁ = 7.59 m/s

Thus the rabbit is 7.59 m/s fast

A 40.0 kg beam is attached to a wall with a hi.nge and its far end is supported by a cable. The angle between the beam and the c
GalinKa [24]

The magnitude of the force that the beam exerts on the hi.nge will be,261.12N.

To find the answer, we need to know about the tension.

<h3>How to find the magnitude of the force that the beam exerts on the hi.nge?</h3>
  • Let's draw the free body diagram of the system using the given data.
  • From the diagram, we have to find the magnitude of the force that the beam exerts on the hi.nge.
  • For that, it is given that the horizontal component of force is equal to the 86.62N, which is same as that of the horizontal component of normal reaction that exerts by the beam on the hi.nge.

                           N_x=86.62N

  • We have to find the vertical component of normal reaction that exerts by the beam on the hi.nge. For this, we have to equate the total force in the vertical direction.

                           N_y=F_V=mg-Tsin59\\

  • To find Ny, we need to find the tension T.
  • For this, we can equate the net horizontal force.

                           F_H=N_x=Tcos59\\\\T=\frac{F_H}{cos59} =\frac{86.62}{0.51}= 169.84N

  • Thus, the vertical component of normal reaction that exerts by the beam on the hi.nge become,

                    N_y= (40*9.8)-(169.8*sin59)=246.4N

  • Thus, the magnitude of the force that the beam exerts on the hi.nge will be,

                 N=\sqrt{N_x^2+N_y^2} =\sqrt{(86.62)^2+(246.4)^2}=261.12N

Thus, we can conclude that, the magnitude of the force that the beam exerts on the hi.nge is 261.12N.

Choose the appropriate words to complete the thought. A solar powered car converts _______________ energy into _________________
Natalija [7]

The best and most correct answer among the choices provided by your question is the second choice or letter C. A solar-powered car converts light energy to mechanical energy.

Solar cars use photovoltaic cells to convert sunlight into energy. Photovoltaic cells are the components in solar panels that convert the sun's energy to electricity<span>. They're made up of semiconductors, usually silicon, that absorb the light.

I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly.

Which has the larger kinetic energy, a 10 g bullet fired at 400 m/s or a 80 kg bowling ball rolled at 6.5 m/s ?
mixer [17]
Formulae for Kinetic energy is:
Kinetic Energy= 1/2xmassx(velocity)^2

For comparison we need to have same units,thus we convert 10g into Kg.
10g/1000=0.01Kg

Input the value of bullet in the formulae;
Kinetic Energy= 1/2x0.01kgx(400)^2
K.E=800J

Input value of the ball:
Kinetic Energy=1/2x80kgx(6.5)^2
K.E=1690J

Which means that th Energy of the ball is more than the bullet.
