Kinetic energy is energy that a body possesses by virtue of being in motion, there for if an object is moving, it has kinetic energy.
Example; A roller coaster sitting on top of hill has potential energy. When it starts to move and is going down the hill, it has kinetic energy. :)

On what factor does speed of sound depend​
velikii [3]

Answer:

For sound waves to travel, there is a requirement of medium and density of the medium is considered to be one of the factors on which the speed of sound depends. When the medium is dense, the molecules in the medium are closely packed which means that the sound travels faster.

The action of two forces. One is a forward force of 1157 N provided by traction between the wheels and the road. The other is a
Pie

Complete question

A 2700 kg car accelerates from rest under the action of two forces. one is a forward force of 1157 newtons provided by traction between the wheels and the road. the other is a 902 newton resistive force due to various frictional forces. how far must the car travel for its speed to reach 3.6 meters per second? answer in units of meters.

Answer:

The car must travel 68.94 meters.

Explanation:

First, we are going to find the acceleration of the car using Newton's second Law:

\sum\overrightarrow{F}=m\overrightarrow{a} (1)

with m the mass , a the acceleration and \sum\overrightarrow{F} the net force forces that is:

(F-f) (2)

with F the force provided by traction and f the resistive force:

(2) on (1):

(F-f)=ma

solving for a:

a=\frac{F-f}{m} =\frac{1157N-902N}{2700kg} =0.094\frac{m}{s^{2}}

Now let's use the Galileo’s kinematic equation

Vf^{2}=Vo^{2}+2a\varDelta x (3)

With Vo te initial velocity that's zero because it started from rest, Vf the final velocity (3.6) and \varDelta x the time took to achieve that velocity, solving (3) for \varDelta x:

\varDelta x= \frac{Vf^{2}}{2a} = t= \frac{(3.6\frac{m}{s})^2}{2*0.094\frac{m}{s^{2}}}

t=68.94 m

The 5-kg block A has an initial speed of 5 m/s as it slides down the smooth ramp, after which it collides with the stationary bl
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

The coupled velocity of both the blocks is 1.92 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of block A, m_1=5\ kg

Initial speed of block A, u_1=5\ m/s

Mass of block B, m_2=8\ kg

Initial speed of block B, u_2=0

It is mentioned that if the two blocks couple together after collision. We need to find the common velocity immediately after collision. We know that due to coupling, it becomes the case of inelastic collision. Using the conservation of linear momentum. Let V is the coupled velocity of both the blocks. So,

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=(m_1+m_2)V\\\\V=\dfrac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2}{(m_1+m_2)}\\\\V=\dfrac{5\times 5+0}{(5+8)}\\\\V=1.92\ m/s

So, the coupled velocity of both the blocks is 1.92 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

Show that the optimal launch angle for a projectile subject to gravity is 45o by carrying out the following steps: 6. Write down
Lorico [155]

Answer:

sin  2θ = 1    θ=45

Explanation:

They ask us to prove that the optimal launch angle is 45º, for this by reviewing the parabolic launch equations we have the scope equation

            R = Vo² sin 2θ / g

Where R is the horizontal range, Vo is the initial velocity, g the acceleration of gravity and θ the launch angle. From this equation we see that the sine function is maximum 2θ = 90 since sin 90 = 1 which implies that θ = 45º; This proves that this is the optimum angle to have the maximum range.

We calculate the distance traveled for different angle

          R = vo² Sin (2 15) /9.8

          R = Vo² 0.051 m

In the table are all values ​​in two ways

Angle (θ)                  distance R (x)

 0                 0                     0

15                 0.051 Vo²        0.5 Vo²/g

30                0.088 vo²        0.866   Vo²/g

45                0.102 Vo²        1   Vo²/g

60                0.088 Vo²      0.866   Vo²/g

75                0.051 vo²        0.5   Vo²/g

90                0                     0

See graphic ( R Vs θ)  in the attached ¡, it can be done with any program, for example EXCEL

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:0kgm/s

Explanation:

Momentum before collision=momentum after collision

Since the momentum of the two blocks have positive sign, it means they are moving in thesame direction

Therefore we use the formula

Momentum (A)+momentum (B)=Momentum (A)+momentum (B)

25+35=60+momentum (B)

60=60+momentum (B)

Momentum (B)=60-60

Momentum (B)=0kgm/s
