You throw a 20-N rock vertically into the air from ground level. You observe that when it is a height 14.8m above the ground, it

is traveling at a speed of 25.0 m/s upward.
A) Use the work-energy theorem to find its speed just as it left the ground. What is it?
B) Use the work-energy theorem to find its maximum height. What is it?

Answer:

30.25 m/s

46.68 m

Explanation:

Work Energy theorem states that

W = ½mv2² - ½mv1²

W = ½m(v2² - v1²)

Net work done by the force = -mgd

Net work done = -m * 9.8 * 14.8

Net work done = -145m

Using the work energy theorem

-145m = ½m(v2² - v1²)

-145m = ½ * m(25² - v1²)

-290m = 625m - v1²m

v1² = 625 + 290

v1² = 915

v1 = √915 = 30.25 m/s

B

-mgd = ½m(v2² - v1²), where v2 = 0, so

-mgd = ½mv1²

Making d the subject of the formula, we have

d = -½mv1²/mg

d = v1²/2g

d = 915/ 2 * 9.8

d = 915 / 19.6

d = 46.68 m

Can someone please help me with science.
pav-90 [236]

On the dog's return trip (between <em>t</em> = 10 and <em>t</em> = 12.5 seconds), the slope of the position function is steeper than during the first 5 seconds, which means the dog ran home faster. The only option that captures this is D.

You can check to make sure that the dog indeed runs twice as fast on the return trip. The slope of the position function during the first 5 seconds is

(change in position) / (change in time) = (5 - 0) / (5 - 0) = 5/5 = 1

while during the return trip, it is

(0 - 5) / (12.5 - 10) = -5/2.5 = -2

Ignoring the sign (which only indicates the direction in which the dog was running), we see that the dog's speed on the return trip was indeed twice as high as during the first 5 s.

What is the transmitted intensity of light if unpolarized light passes through a single polarizing filter and the initial intens
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

The transmitted intensity is   I  =  40 \ W/m^2

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The intensity of the unpolarized  light  I_o  =  80 \ W /m^2

Generally for a single filter the transmitted intensity of light  is mathematically evaluated as

           I  =  \frac{I_o}{2}

substituting values

          I  =  \frac{80}{2}

          I  =  40 \ W/m^2

A model rocket weighing 4.9 N launches from a pad. How much work does the little rocket engine do in the first 4 meters
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

 Work done by the little rocket engine = 19.6 Joules.

Explanation:

 We know that work = force x displacement.

 Force = weight of rocket = 4.9 N

 Displacement = 5 meter.

 So work done by the little rocket engine = Weight of rocket x displacement.

  Work done by the little rocket engine = 4.9 x 4 = 19.6 J

    Work done by the little rocket engine = 19.6 Joules.
