solution

Given

mass= 20kg

velocity =3m/s

K.E=?

K.E= ½mv²

½×20×3²

½×20×9

½×180

A 2.0-kg projectile is fired with initial velocity components v0x = 30 m/s and v0y = 40 m/s from a point on the Earth's surface.
EleoNora [17]

(a) The kinetic energy of the projectile when it reaches the highest point in its trajectory is 900 J.

(b) The work done  in firing the projectile is 2,500 J.

<h3>Kinetic energy of the projectile at maximum height</h3>

The kinetic energy of the projectile when it reaches the highest point in its trajectory is calculated as follows;

K.E = ¹/₂mv₀ₓ²

where;

  • m is mass of the projectile
  • v₀ₓ is the initial horizontal component of the velocity at maximum height

<u>Note:</u> At maximum height the final vertical velocity is zero and the final horizontal velocity is equal to the initial horizontal velocity.

K.E = (0.5)(2)(30²)

K.E = 900 J

<h3>Work done in firing the projectile</h3>

Based on the principle of conservation of energy, the work done in firing the projectile is equal to the initial kinetic energy of the projectile.

W = K.E(i) = ¹/₂mv²

where;

  • v is the resultant velocity

v = √(30² + 40²)

v = 50 m/s

W = (0.5)(2)(50²)

W = 2,500 J

Thus, the kinetic energy of the projectile when it reaches the highest point in its trajectory is 900 J.

The work done  in firing the projectile is 2,500 J.

1. At a location in Europe, it is necessary to supply 1000 kW of 60-Hz power. Only power sources available operate at 50 Hz. It
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the given information:

The speed of a synchronous motor in relation to its frequency can be represented with the formula:

n_{sm}= \dfrac{120f_{se}}{P}

where,

the electrical frequency f_{se} is measured in Hz

the number of poles = P

For us to estimate the number of poles to have 50 Hz - 60 Hz Power, then we need to relate the frequencies of the above equation.

i.e

\dfrac{120(50 \ Hz)}{P_1}= \dfrac{120( 60 \Hz)}{P_2} \\ \\ \dfrac{6000 \ Hz}{P_1}= \dfrac{7200 \ Hz}{P_2} \\ \\ \dfrac{P_2}{P_1}=\dfrac{7200}{6000} \\ \\ \\ \dfrac{P_2}{P_1}= \dfrac{12}{10}

Thus, we can conclude that 10 poles synchronous motor is attached with 12 poles synchronous generator in order to convert 50 Hz to 60 Hz power.

In a classroom demonstration, students are using a Slinky to observe and learn about wave properties. If the Slinky has a period
Andrej [43]

Answer:

Frequency = 3.0 Hertz

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Period = 0.333 seconds

To find the frequency;

Mathematically, frequency of a wave is given by the formula;

Frequency = 1/period

Substituting into the formula, we have;

Frequency = 1/0.333

Frequency = 3.0 Hertz

A soccer ball is traveling at a velocity of 50 m/s. The kinetic energy of the ball is 500 J. What is the mass of the soccer ball
Savatey [412]
A soccer ball is traveling at a velocity of 50 m/s. The kinetic energy of the ball is 500 J.The mass of the soccer ball is 0.4 kgs. This answer is derived from the formula K=1/2 MV^2.So velocity and kinetic energy are given from that mass of the ball is calculated.By substituting the values 500=1/2*M*50*50 which gives M=0.4 Kgs.<span>
