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.

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

Which graph accurately shows the relationship between kinetic energy and speed as speed increases?
mixer [17]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

kinetic energy (KE) is the energy possessed by moving bodies. It can be expressed as:

KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}

Where: m is the mass of the object, and v its speed.

For example, a stone of mass 2kg was thrown and moves with a speed of 3 m/s. Determine the kinetic energy of the stone.

Thus,

KE =  \frac{1}{2} x 2 x 3^{2}

     = 9

KE = 9.0 Joules

Assume that the speed of the stone was 4 m/s, then its KE would be:

KE =  \frac{1}{2} x 2 x 4^{2}

     = 16

KE = 16.0 Joules

Therefore, it can be observed that as speed increases, the kinetic energy increases. Thus option B is appropriate.

What must be the magnitude of a uniform electric field if it is to have the same energy density as that possessed by a 0.50 T ma
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

E = 1.50 × 10^{8} V/m

Explanation:

given data

B = 0.50 T

solution

we know that energy density by the magnetic field is express as

\mu _b = \frac{B}{2\mu _o}   ...............1

and

energy density due to electric filed is

\mu _e = \frac{\epsilon _o E^2}{2}     ...............2

and here \mu _b = \mu _ e

so that

E = \frac{B}{\sqrt{\mu _o \times \epsilon _o}}      ...................3

put here value and we get

E = \frac{0.50}{\sqrt{4\pi \times 10^{-7} \times 8.852 \times 10^{-12}}}  

E = 3 × 10^{8}  × 0.50

E = 1.50 × 10^{8} V/m
