An archer draws her bow and stores 34.8 J of elastic potential energy in the bow. She releases the 63 g arrow, giving it an init

ial speed of 28 m/s. How efficient is the transfer of the elastic potential energy of the bow to the kinetic energy of the arrow?

Answer:

Approximately 71\%.

Explanation:

The formula for the kinetic energy \rm KE of an object is:

\displaystyle \mathrm{KE} = \frac{1}{2}\, m \cdot v^2,

where

  • m is the mass of that object, and
  • v is the speed of that object.

Important: Joule (\rm J) is the standard unit for energy. The formula for \rm KE requires two inputs: mass and speed. The standard unit of mass is \rm kg while the standard unit for speed is \rm m \cdot s^{-1}. If both inputs are in standard units, then the output (kinetic energy) will also be in the standard unit (that is: joules,

Convert the unit of the arrow's mass to standard unit:

m = 63\; \rm g = 0.063\; \rm kg.

Initial \rm KE of this arrow:

\begin{aligned}\mathrm{KE} &= \frac{1}{2} \, m \cdot v^2 \\ &= \frac{1}{2}\times 0.063\; \rm kg \times \left(\rm 28 \; m \cdot s^{-1}\right)^2 \\ &\approx 24.696\; \rm J\end{aligned}.

That's the same as the energy output of this bow. Hence, the efficiency of energy transfer will be:

\displaystyle \frac{24.696\; \rm J}{34.8\; \rm J} \times 100\% \approx 71\%.

At t=0, a block A of mass 8 kg and block B of mass 16 kg are both at position x=0 . Block A is at rest, and block B is moving at
love history [14]

The center of mass of the two objects is the average position of the parts of the two object system

The center of mass of block <em>A</em>, and block <em>B</em>  after displacement of block <em>B</em> is at <u>20 m from block </u><u><em>A</em></u>

<em />

Reason:

The given parameters are;

The position of block A and block B at t = 0 is x = 0

The mass of block A, m₁ = 8 kg

Mass of block B, m₂ = 16 kg

Speed of block <em>A</em> = 0 m/s

Speed of block <em>B</em>, v₂ = 10 m/s

Location of the center of mass of the two object at t = 3 s; Required

Solution;

The location of block <em>A</em>, after 3 s is x₁ = 0 (block A is at rest)

The location of block <em>B</em>, = v₂ × t

The location of block <em>B</em>, after 3 s is x₂ = 10 m/s × 3 s = 30 m

The center of mass of two masses are given as follows;

x_{cm} = \dfrac{m_1 \cdot x_1 +m_2\cdot x_2}{m_1 + m_2}

x_{cm} = \dfrac{8  \times0 + 16 \times  30}{8 + 16} = 20

The center of mass of the two objects is at at the position x = <u>20 m</u> (from block <em>A</em>)

A machine runs for 50 seconds with a steady power output of 100 watts. How many joules of work does the
liberstina [14]

Answer:

The answer to your question is when time = 50 s, work = 5000 J

                                                    when time = 90 s, work = 9000 J

Explanation:

Data

time = 50 s or 90 s

Power = 100 watts

Power is defined as the rate of work done per unit of time.

           Power = Work / time

-Solve for Work

           Work = Power x time

-Substitution

           Work = 100 x 50

-Result

           Work = 5000

2.-When time = 90 s

           Work = 100 x 90

-Result

          Work = 9000 watts

Explain what causes acid rain to form and its negative effects on living and nonliving things.
OLga [1]
What causes it to form: <span>Acid rain is caused by a chemical reaction that begins when compounds like sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides are released into the air. These substances can rise very high into the atmosphere, where they mix and react with water, oxygen, and other chemicals to form more acidic pollutants, known as acid rain. Human activities, power plants, and exhaust from vehicles all are causes.</span>
Affects on living things-
Acid rain can kill trees
It can affect plant growth patterns
Toxins can kill animals
Nonliving things- 
It can decay building materials and paints
it breaks down rocks
