Thanks for sharing that information.  After extensive calculation,
we can say with assurance that after some number of seconds,
a loud "crunch" is perceived by the souls aboard the ill-fated vessel.

Slav-nsk [51]
<span>0.52% First, let's convert that speed into m/s. 150 km/h * 1000 m/km / 3600 s/h = 41.667 m/s Now let's see how much time gravity has to work on the ball. Divide the distance by the speed. 18 m / 41.667 m/s = 0.431996544 s Now multiply that time by the gravitational acceleration to see what the vertical component to the ball's speed that gravity adds. 0.431996544 s * 9.8 m/s^2 = 4.233566131 m/s Use the pythagorean theorem to get the new velocity of the ball. sqrt(41.667^2 + 4.234^2) = 41.882 m/s Finally, let's see what the difference is (41.882 - 41.667)/41.667 = 0.005159959 = 0.5159959% Rounding to 2 figures, gives 0.52%</span>

An ideal spring hangs from the ceiling. A 2.15 kg mass is hung from the spring, stretching the spring a distance d = 0.0895 m fr
Igoryamba

Answer:

The kinetic energy of the mass at the instant it passes back through the equilibrium position is 0.06500 J.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 2.15 kg

Distance = 0.0895 m

Amplitude = 0.0235 m

We need to calculate the spring constant

Using newton's second law

F= mg

Where, f = restoring force

kx=mg

k=\dfrac{mg}{x}

Put the value into the formula

k=\dfrac{2.15\times9.8}{0.0895}

k=235.41\ N/m

We need to calculate the kinetic energy of the mass

Using formula of kinetic energy

K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

Here, v = A\omega

K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}m\times(A\omega)^2

Here, \omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}^2

K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}m\times A^2\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}^2

K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}kA^2

Put the value into the formula

K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times235.41\times(0.0235)^2

K.E=0.06500\ J

Hence, The kinetic energy of the mass at the instant it passes back through the equilibrium position is 0.06500 J.

Estimate the volume of a piece of molecular cloud that has the same amount of water as your body.
noname [10]

Question:

The water molecules now in your body were once part of a molecular cloud. Only about onemillionth of the mass of a molecular cloud is in the form of water molecules, and the mass density of such a cloud is roughly 2.0×10−21 g/cm^3.

Estimate the volume of a piece of molecular cloud that has the same amount of water as your body.

Answer:

The volume of cloud that has the same density as the amount of water in our body is 1.4×10²⁵ cm³

Explanation:

Here, we have mass density of cloud  =  2.0×10⁻²¹ g/cm^3

Density = Mass/Volume

Volume = Mass/Density =   If the mass is 40 kg and the body is made up of 70% by mass of water, we have

28 kg water = 28000 g

Therefore the Volume = 28 kg/ 2.0×10⁻²¹ g/cm^3 = 1.4×10¹⁹ m³ = 1.4×10²⁵ cm³.

Therefore, the volume of cloud that has the same density as the amount of water in our body = 1.4×10²⁵ cm³.
