Kinetic energy is simply 1/2 *mass* velocity^2 
so since you know both mass and velocity you should be able to calculate the kinetic energy.

A student on a raft floating behind the canoe says the canoe has NO kinetic energy.
A teacher standing on the riverbank when the canoe floats by says it has 44 joules of KE.
They're both correct.

Papessa [141]
<span>3.78 m Ignoring resistance, the ball will travel upwards until it's velocity is 0 m/s. So we'll first calculate how many seconds that takes. 7.2 m/s / 9.81 m/s^2 = 0.77945 s The distance traveled is given by the formula d = 1/2 AT^2, so substitute the known value for A and T, giving d = 1/2 A T^2 d = 1/2 9.81 m/s^2 (0.77945 s)^2 d = 4.905 m/s^2 0.607542 s^2 d = 2.979995 m So the volleyball will travel 2.979995 meters straight up from the point upon which it was launched. So we need to add the 0.80 meters initial height. d = 2.979995 m + 0.8 m = 3.779995 m Rounding to 2 decimal places gives us 3.78 m</span>

A school bus has a mass of 18,200 kg. The bus moves at 13.5 m/s. How fast must a 0.142-kg baseball move in order to have the sam
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

bus momentum

p_bus= m_bus x v_bus

=18,200 x 16.5

basball momentum

pball=mball x vball

=0.142 x v

p_bus = pball

18200 x 16.5 = 0.142 x v

v=(18200 x 16.5)/0.142

v is the answer for baseball

Which of the following best describes the human population from early times to the present?
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

We have a not significant increase of the population until 1700s or 1800s and then a significant increase growth from these years to the present.

Explanation:

From the figure attached we see the evolution of the human population since early times (1050).

We see that from 1050 until 1750-1850 we have an increase slowly with a low value for the increase per year.

But after these years (1750-1850) we see a considerable increase of the population, like an exponential model.

So then we can conclude in general terms this:

We have a not significant increase of the population until 1700s or 1800s and then a significant increase growth from these years to the present.

Determine the amount of work done on an ideal gas as it is heated in an enclosed thermally insulated cylinder topped with a free
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

W = 3/2 n (T₁- T₂)

Explanation:

Let's use the first law of thermodynamics

           ΔE = Q + W

in this case the cylinder is insulated, so there is no heat transfer

           ΔE = W

internal energy can be related to the change in temperature

            ΔE = 3/2 n K ΔT

we substitute

           3/2 n (T₂-T₁) = W

as the work is on the gas it is negative

            W = 3/2 n (T₁- T₂)
