Answer:

0.0196 Joules

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is half the product of mass and velocity squared.

K.E=0.5 m*v^2; The m is the mass in kilograms and v is the velocity in meters per second.

We will convert grams to kilograms:

2.45 grams = 0.00245 kilograms.

Calculating kinetic energy:

mass:0.00245 kg

velocity:4 m/s

K.E = 0.5 *0.00245*4^2 = 0.0196 Joules.

A 9.5 V battery supplies a 3.5 mA current to a circuit for 7.0 h. Part A How much charge has been transferred from the negative
pychu [463]

Answer:

88.2 C

Explanation:

The current can be defined as the rate of flow of charge in a conductor.

The relation between charge current and time is given as

I = Q/T

I = current, Q= charge and T = time

that is ampere = coulomb / second

The amount of charge passed is from the negative to the positive terminal

shall be given by:

Q = I * t = 3.5mA * 7h * 3600s/h = 88.2 C

Note: take care of the units.

Two balls of clay, with masses M1 = 0.49 kg and M2 = 0.47 kg, are thrown at each other and stick when they collide. Mass 1 has a
malfutka [58]

Answer:

a) p_i=1.568\hat{i}+0.752 \hat{j}

b) v_{fx}=1.668\ m.s^{-1}

c) v_{fy}=0.7999\ m.s^{-1}

Explanation:

Given masses:

m_1=0.49\ kg

m_2=0.47\ kg

Velocity of mass 1, v_1=3.2 \hat{i}\ m.s^{-1}

Velocity of mass 2, v_2=1.6 \hat{j}\ m.s^{-1}

a)

Initial momentum:

p_i=m_1.v_1+m_2.v_2

p_i=0.49\times 3.2 \hat{i}+0.47\times 1.6 \hat{j}

p_i=1.568\hat{i}+0.752 \hat{j}

b)

magnitude of initial momentum:

p_i=\sqrt{1.568^2+0.752 ^2}

p_i=1.739\ kg.m.s^{-1}

From the conservation of momentum:

p_f=p_i

m_f.v_f=1.739

v_f=\frac{1.739}{0.49+0.47}

v_f=1.85\ m.s^{-1} is the magnitude of final velocity.

Direction of final velocity will be in the direction of momentum:

tan\theta=\frac{0.752 }{1.568}

\theta=25.62^{\circ}

\therefore v_{fx}=1.85\ cos25.62^{\circ}

v_{fx}=1.668\ m.s^{-1}

c)

Vertical component of final velocity:

v_{fy}=1.85\ sin 25.62^{\circ}

v_{fy}=0.7999\ m.s^{-1}

If a force of 450N pushes a box 4 meters in 2 seconds, how much power was developed?
strojnjashka [21]

Work = (force) x (distance) = (450 N) x (4 m) = 1,800 joules

Power = (work) / (time) = (1,800 joules) / (2 sec) = 900 watts .
