A ball having a mass of 0.20 kilograms is placed at a height of 3.25 meters. If it is dropped from this height, what will be the

kinetic energy of the ball when it reaches 1.5 meters above the ground?

EC_1 + EP_1 = EC2 + EP_2

EC_2 = 0

EC_2 = EP_1 - EP_2

EC_2 = mg(H_1 - H_2) = 0.20 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 * (3.25 m - 1.5m) = 3.43 J

Answer:

3.43 J

Explanation:

One form of energy can convert to another but cannot be created or destroyed.

A body has potential energy due to its position or configuration.

P.E. = m g h

A body has kinetic energy due to its motion.

K.E. = 0.5 mv²

Mechanical energy is the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy and in the absence of any external forces, the mechanical energy remains conserved.

Potential energy+ Kinetic energy (at the top) = Potential energy +kinetic energy (at 3.25 m)

⇒ m g h + 0 = m g h' + K.E.'

⇒K.E. ' = mg (h -h') = 0.20 kg × 9.81 m/s² × (3.25 m - 1.5 m) = 3.43 J

When a battery, a resistor, a switch, and an inductor form a circuit and the switch is closed, the inductor acts to oppose the c

GaryK [48]

Answer:

The time constant becomes twice.

Explanation:

$T$ = Time constant of the L-R circuit

$L$ = Inductance of the inductor

$R$ = Resistance of the resistor

Time constant of the L-R circuit is given as

$T = \frac{L}{R}\\$

$T_{1}$ = initial time constant of the L-R circuit = $T$

$T_{2}$ = final time constant of the L-R circuit

$L_{1}$ = Initial inductance of the inductor = $L$

$L_{2}$ = Initial inductance of the inductor = $2L$

For the same resistance, the time constant depend directly on the inductance, hence

$\frac{T_{1}}{T_{2}} = \frac{L_{1}}{L_{2}}\\\frac{T}{T_{2}} = \frac{L}{2L}\\\frac{T}{T_{2}} = \frac{1}{2}\\T_{2} = 2T$

A certain aircraft can fly 612 miles with the wind in 3 hours and travel the same distance against the wind in 6 hours. What is

Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

51 mph

Explanation:

Given: A certain aircraft can fly 612 miles with the wind in 3 hours and travel the same distance against the wind in 6 hours.

Formula: $Speed=\dfrac{Distance}{Time}$

Let speed of aircraft be x mph and speed of wind y mph

Aircraft along wind:

Actual speed of aircraft = x + y

Time taken = 3 hours

Distance = 612 miles

$\therefore x+y=\dfrac{612}{3}$

$x+y=204----------(1)$

Aircraft against wind:

Actual speed of aircraft = x - y

Time taken = 6 hours

Distance = 612 miles

$\therefore x-y=\dfrac{612}{6}$

$x-y=102----------(2)$

By solving equation (1) and equation (2) and we get

x = 153 mph

y = 51 mph

Hence, The speed of wind will be 51 mph

liberstina [14]

Answer:

$h = 0.028 m$

Explanation:

As we know that

$d = \frac{v_2 + v_1}{2} t$

here we have

$1.95 = \frac{v_2 + v_1}{2}(0.56)$

$v_2 + v_1 = 6.96$

also we know

$v_2 - v_1 = at$

$v_2 - v_1 = (9.81)(0.56)$

$v_2 - v_1 = 5.49$

so we have

$v_2 = 6.23 m/s$

$v_1 = 0.74 m/s$

so the height above window is given as

$v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d$

$0.74^2 - 0 = 2(9.81)h$

$h = 0.028 m$
