If energy is conserved, why do people get tired , and why are we running short on “energy supplies?”

Physics
1 answer:

Because energy is being consumed. It takes energy to lift things, walk around, etc. We are transferring our chemical energy from meals to our environment and basic functions. The answer to the second part is probably that so much energy has been transferred and stored in our surroundings, and it's difficult to gather that energy into a useful medium for us to use again.

A solid 0.4550 kg ball rolls without slipping down a track toward a vertical loop of radius R = 0.6750 m . What minimum translat
Talja [164]

Answer:

u = 3.35 m/s

Explanation:

given,

mass , m = 0.455 kg  

R = 0.675 m

Height of Loop = 1.021 m

the speed required at the top of loop be v

equating the force vertically

m g =\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

9.81 =\dfrac{v^2}{0.675}

v² = 6.622

v = 2.57 m/s

Let the initial speed of ball be u

using conservation of energy

\dfrac{1}{2}mu^2 + \dfrac{1}{2}I\omega^2 + m g h = \dfrac{1}{2}I\omega^2 + \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2+ m g (2 R)

where, I =\dfrac{2}{5}mr^2

\dfrac{1}{2}mu^2 + \dfrac{1}{2}(\dfrac{2}{5}mr^2)(\dfrac{u}{r})^2 + m g h = \dfrac{1}{2}(\dfrac{2}{5}mr^2)(\dfrac{v}{r})^2 + \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2+ m g (2 R)

0.7 u^2 + g H = 0.7 v^2 + g(2R)

0.7 u^2 +9.81 \times 1.021= 0.7\times 2.57^2 + 9.81 \times 2\times 0.675)

0.7 u² = 7.85092

u² = 11.2156

u = 3.35 m/s

the initial  speed is 3.35 m/s

Movies and TV shows sometimes portray a person being thrown backwards a sizable distance as a result of being struck by a bullet
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

 R = 4.24 x 10⁻⁴ m

Explanation:

given,

mass of the person = 60.3-kg

mass of the bullet = 10 gram = 0.01 Kg

velocity of bullet = 389 m/s

angle made with the horizontal = 45°

using conservation of momentum.

M v  + m u  = ( M + m ) V

60.3 x 0 + 0.01 x 389 = (60.3 + 0.01) V

V = \dfrac{3.89}{60.31}

V = \dfrac{3.89}{60.31}

V = 0.0645 m/s

for calculation of range

R = \dfrac{V^2sin 2 \theta}{g}

R = \dfrac{0.0645^2sin 2 (45^0)}{9.8}

     R = 4.24 x 10⁻⁴ m

the distance actor fall is  R = 4.24 x 10⁻⁴ m

3. If a car is moving at 90km/hr and it rounds a corner, also at 90km/hr. Does it maintain
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

Constant speed: yes

Constant velocity: no

Explanation:

Let's remind the definition of speed and velocity:

- Speed is a scalar quantity, which is equal to the ratio between the distance covered (regardless of the direction) and the time taken:

s=\frac{d}{t}

- Velocity is a vector quantity, so it has both a magnitude and a direction. The magnitude is equal to the rate between the displacement of the object and the time taken, while the direction is the same as the displacement.

In this problem, we notice that:

- The speed of the car remains constant, as it is 90 km/h

- However, its direction of motion changes while the car travels round the corner: this means that the direction of the velocity is also changing, therefore velocity is not constant.
