What is calculated by the equation KE = 1/2mv2?

A homing pigeon starts from rest and accelerates uniformly at +4.00 m/s squared for 10.0 seconds. What is its velocity after the

zavuch27 [327]

' +4 m/s² ' means that the pigeon's speed is 4 m/s greater every second.

Starting from zero speed, after 10 seconds, its speed is

(10 x 4m/s) = 40 m/s.

We can't say anything about its velocity, because we have
no information regarding the direction of its flight.

A pulling force is called what?<br> A. normal<br> B. tension<br> C. balanced<br> D. compression

joja [24]

<span>There is no special name for that. Physics is usually just concerned with "forces", and doesn't specify whether the force pushes or pulls. If you want to be more specific, you can just call it a "pulling force".
I hoped this was satisfying!:)</span>

A rocket fires two engines simultaneously. One produces a thrust of 725Ndirectly forward while the other gives a 513N thrust at

faust18 [17]

The magnitude of the resultant force, F = 1,190.3 acting at a direction X = 13.35°.

<h3>What is the resultant force the two engines exert on the rocket?</h3>

The resultant force on the rocket is calculated thus:

The 513N thrust is resolved into vertical and horizontal components;

Horizontal component: 513N cos(32.4°) = 433.14 N

Vertical component: 513N sin(32.4°) = 274.88 N

Total forward force on the rocket = 725 N + 433.14 N = 1,158.14 N

Total force at right angles:

0 + 274.88 N = 274.88 N

The resultant force (F) is then given as follows:

F² = a² + b²

F² = (1158.14 N)² + (274.88 N)²

F = √1,416,847.27

F = 1,190.3

To find the direction:

tan X 274.88 N / 1,158.14 N

X = tan⁻¹ 0.237346089419241

X = 13.35°

Therefore, the magnitude of the resultant force, F = 1,190.3 acting at a direction X = 13.35°.

In conclusion, the resultant force is obtained by resolving the forces into vertical and horizontal components.

A 200kg ball on the end of string is swung in horizontal circle with radius of 0.5m . The ball makes revolution every 2second th

ANEK [815]

Answer: $\dfrac{\pi}{2} ms^{-1}$

Explanation:

Let $T$ be the time required to make one revolution.

Let $r$ be the radius of the circular path.

Let $d$ be the distance travelled by ball in one revolution.

As we know,the distance travelled in one revolution is the circumference of the circle.

So, $d=2\pi r$

Given, $d=0.5m\\T=2sec$

$d=2\times \pi \times 0.5=\pi m$

Speed of an object moving is circular path is define as the ratio of distance travelled in one revolution to the time taken by the object to complete one revolution.

Let $s$ be the speed of the ball.

$s=\frac{d}{T}=\frac{\pi }{2}ms^{-1}$

So,the speed of the ball is $\frac{\pi }{2}ms^{-1}$

Institutions that anticipate and recognize significant external forces and modify their strategies and operations will prosper a

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:True

Explanation: External factors are factors outside of an organisation or an institution that has the capacity of either adversely or positively affect the institution or the Organisation.

For an institution to prosper and perform optimally in an economy.or a country, such Institution must put into cognisance the possible external threats that are capable of affecting it, when Organisations or Institution put strategies in place to control or mitigate such externalities,the institution or Organisation will sure Prosper.
