Elastic potential energy=1/2kx^2 (k is constant and x is how far it has to be stretched. So 48=1/2(256)x^2 which is 0.6123

What is the kinetic energy of a 0.50 kg ball traveling at 120 m/s
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

3600 J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy of an object is the energy posses by an object solely due to its motion.

It can also be defined as the amount of work that can be done when an moving object come to test.

Kinetic energy of an object can be calculated by the equation,

K.E. = ½mv²

Where m = mass, v = velocity

So you get,

K.E. = ½×0.5×(120)² = 3600 J

What is the oxidation number of the element Se
maria [59]

Answer:

The oxidation number of a monatomic (composed of one atom) ion is the same as the charge of the ion. For example, the oxidation numbers of K+, Se2−, and Au3+ are +1, -2, and +3, respectively. The oxidation number of oxygen in most compounds is −2.

A bomb at rest at the origin of an xy-coordinate system explodes into three pieces. Just after the explosion, one piece, of mass
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) It is given that bomb was at rest initially , so ,  its momentum before the explosion was zero.

b ) We shall apply law of conservation of momentum along x and y direction separately because no external force acts on the bomb.

If v be the velocity of the third part along a direction making angle θ

with x axis ,

x component of v = vcosθ

So momentum along x axis  after explosion of third part   = mv cosθ

= 10 v cosθ

Momentum along x of first part = -  5 x 42 m/s

momentum of second part along x direction =0

total momentum along x direction before explosion = total momentum along x direction after explosion

0 = - 5 x 42 + 10 v cosθ

v cosθ = 21

Similarly

total momentum along y direction before explosion = total momentum along y direction after explosion

0 = - 5 x 38 +  10 v sinθ

v sinθ= 21

squaring and and then adding the above equation

v² cos²θ +v² sin²θ = 21² +19²

v² = 441 + 361

v = 28.31 m/s

Tanθ = 21 / 19

θ = 48°

Examine the scenario. Two neutral objects, a balloon and a sweater, are rubbed against each other. Which choice most accurately
Ne4ueva [31]

Electrons move from the sweater to the balloon. The sweater becomes positively charged, while the balloon becomes negatively charged.

Explanation:

  • Sweater is a conductive material, which means it readily gives away its electrons.
  • Consequently, when you rub a balloon on Sweater, this causes the electrons to move from the Sweater to the balloon's surface.
  • The rubbed part of the balloon now acquired  a negative charge. Objects made of rubber, such as the balloon, are basically electrical insulators, meaning that they resist electric charges flowing through them.
  • This is why only part of the balloon may have a negative charge (where the wool rubbed it) and the rest may remain neutral after electrostatic process.

1. A jet lands on an aircraft carrier at a speed of 140 mi/h [ 1.00 mile = 1.61 km]
Iteru [2.4K]
Answer:

Acceleration, a = -31.29 m/s²

Explanation:

It is given that, Initial speed of the aircraft, u = 140 mi/h =

62.58 m/s

Finally, it stops, v = 0

Time taken, t = 2 s

Let a is the acceleration of the aircraft. We know that the rate of change of velocity is called acceleration of the object. It is given by :

a = t

0-62.58 2 a =

a = -31.29 m/s²

So, the acceleration of the aircraft is 31.29 m/s²

and the car is decelerating. Hence, this is the required solution.
