Having difficulty finding the PE and KE for these values no mass is given. Does anyone know to go solve these?

Alexandra [31]

11) $1.04\cdot 10^7 J$

12) $1.04\cdot 10^7 J$

13) 50.0 m/s

14) 41.6 m/s

Explanation:

11)

The potential energy of an object is the energy possessed by the object due to its position relative to the ground. It is given by

$PE=mgh$

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height relative to the ground

Here in this problem, when the train is at the top, we have:

m = 8325 kg (mass of the train + riders)

$g=9.8 m/s^2$ (acceleration due to gravity)

h = 127 m (height of the train at the top)

Substituting,

$PE=(8325)(9.8)(127)=1.04\cdot 10^7 J$

12)

According to the law of conservation of energy, the total mechanical energy of the train must be conserved (in absence of friction). So we can write:

$KE_t + PE_t = KE_b + PE_b$

where

$KE_t$ is the kinetic energy at the top

$PE_t$ is the potential energy at the top

$KE_b$ is the kinetic energy at the bottom

$PE_b$ is the potential energy at the bottom

The kinetic energy is the energy due to motion; since the train is at rest at the top, we have

$KE_t=0$

Also, at the bottom the height is zero, so the potential energy is zero

$PE_b=0$

Therefore, we find:

$KE_b=PE_t=1.04\cdot 10^7 J$

13)

The kinetic energy of an object is the energy of the object due to its motion. Mathematically, it is given by

$KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where

m is the mass of the object

v is the speed of the object

From question 12), we know that the kinetic energy of the train at the bottom is

$KE=1.04\cdot 10^7 J$

We also know that the mass is

m = 8325 kg

Therefore, we can calculate the speed of the train at the bottom:

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2KE}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(1.04\cdot 10^7)}{8325}}=50.0 m/s$

14)

At the top of the second hill, the total mechanical energy of the train is still conserved.

Therefore, we can write again:

$KE_1 + PE_1 = KE_2 + PE_2$

where

$KE_1$ is the kinetic energy at the top of the 1st hill

$PE_1$ is the potential energy at the top of the 1st hill

$KE_2$ is the kinetic energy at the top of the 2nd hill

$PE_2$ is the potential energy at the top of the 2nd hill

From the previous questions, we know that

$KE_1=0$

and

$PE_1=1.04\cdot 10^7 J$

The height of the second hill is

h = 39 m

So we can also find the potential energy at the second hill:

$PE_2=mgh=(8325)(9.8)(39)=3.2\cdot 10^6 J$

So, the kinetic energy at the second hill is

$KE_2=PE_1-PE_2=1.04\cdot 10^7 - 3.2\cdot 10^6 =7.2\cdot 10^6 J$

And so, the speed is

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2KE_2}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(7.2\cdot 10^6)}{8325}}=41.6 m/s$

In an elastic head-on collision, a 0.60 kg cart moving at 5.0 m/s [W] collides with a 0.80 kg cart moving at 2.0 m/s [E]. The co

labwork [276]

Answer:

The answer is given below

Explanation:

u is the initial velocity, v is the final velocity. Given that:

$m_1=0.6kg,u_1=-5m/s(moving \ west),m_2=0.8kg,u_2=2m/s,k=1200N/m$

a)

The final velocity of cart 1 after collision is given as:

$v_1=(\frac{m_1-m_2}{m_1+m_2})u_1+\frac{2m_2}{m_1+m_2}u_2\\ Substituting:\\v_1=\frac{0.6-0.8}{0.6+0.8} (-5)+\frac{2*0.8}{0.6+0.8}(2)= 5/7+16/7=3\ m/s$

The final velocity of cart 2 after collision is given as:

$v_2=(\frac{m_2-m_1}{m_1+m_2})u_2+\frac{2m_1}{m_1+m_2}u_1\\ Substituting:\\v_1=\frac{0.8-0.6}{0.6+0.8} (2)+\frac{2*0.6}{0.6+0.8}(-5)= 2/7-30/7=-4\ m/s$

b) Using the law of conservation of energy:

$\frac{1}{2}m_1u_1+ \frac{1}{2}m_2u_2=\frac{1}{2}m_1v_1+\frac{1}{2}m_2v_2+\frac{1}{2}kx^2\\x=\sqrt{\frac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2-m_1v_1-m_2v_2}{k}}\\ Substituting\ gives:\\x=\sqrt{\frac{0.6*(-5)^2+0.8*2^2-(0.6*3^2)-(0.8*(-4)^2)}{1200}}=\sqrt{0}=0\ cm$

(1.08×10-3)(9.3×10-4)

ira [324]

First you do the first parenthesis, (1.08 x 10 - 3) and you do it in the order of operations! (parenthesis, exponents, multiplication/division, add/subtract) to get 7.8. Then you take the second parenthesis (9.3 x 10 - 4) and do the same thing to get 89! You then times 7.8 by 89 to get 694.2! If it needs more elaboration just ask ^.^

Milk has a density of 1.035 g/ml and olive oil has a density of 0.850 g/ml. Which has more mass

marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

Milk.

Explanation:

Density is used to describe how much space an object or substance takes up in relation to the amount of matter in that object or substance (its mass).

Another way to put it is that, density of a substance is the amount of mass of that substance per unit volume. If an object is heavy and compact, it has a high density.

Density = mass/volume

So,

Milk = 1.035 g of milk per 1 ml

Olive oil = 0.85 g of olive oil in 1 ml.

Therefore, milk has a higher mass.
