The total amount of energy contained in an object

1 answer:

7 0

The total amount of energy stored in the particles of an object is called its internal energy. The internal energy of an object is made up of the kinetic energy due to the random motion of the particles and the potential energy due to the interactive forces among the particles.

A perfectly elastic collision occurs between a 15.0-kg mass traveling at 3.50 m/s and a 9.00-kg mass traveling at 2.35 m/s. if t

BaLLatris [955]

Momentum is conserved in a collision. Momentum is mass*velocity, so you can find your answer by calculating initial and final momentums and setting them equal to each other.

15kg * 3.50 m/s + 9kg * 2.35 m/s = 73.65 kg m/s

73.65 = 9 * 2.8 + 15x

solve for x
x= 3.23

The final velocity is 3.23 m/s

Find the position vector of a particle that has the given acceleration and the specified initial velocity and position. a(t) = 1

kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Acceleration $a(t)=14t\hat{i]+\sin (t)\hat{j}+\cos (2t)\hat{k}$ [/tex]

and $v(0)=\hat{i}$

$r(0)=\hat{j}$

we know $a=\frac{\mathrm{d} v}{\mathrm{d} t}$

$\int dv=\int adt$

$v(t)=\int (14t\hat{i}+\sin (t)\hat{j}+\cos (2t)\hat{k})dt$

$v(t)=7t^2\hat{i}-\cos t\hat{j}+\frac{\sin (2t)\hat{k}}{2}+c$

at $t=0$

$v(0)=0-1\cdot \hat{j}+0+c$

$c=\hat{i}+\hat{j}$

$v(t)=(7t^2+1)\hat{i}+(1-\cos t)\hat{j}+\frac{\sin (2t)\hat{k}}{2}$

and $\frac{\mathrm{d} r}{\mathrm{d} t}=v(t)$

$\int dr=\int vdt$

$r(t)=\int ((7t^2+1)\hat{i}+(1-\cos t)\hat{j}+\frac{\sin (2t)\hat{k}}{2})dt$

$r(t)=(\frac{7}{2}t^3+t)\hat{i}+(t-\sin (t))\hat{j}+\frac{1}{2}\times (-\frac{1}{2}\cos 2t)\hat{k}+c_2$

at $t=0$

$r(0)=\hat{j}$

$r(t)=(\frac{7}{3}t^3+t)\hat{i}+(1+t-\sin t)\hat{j}+\frac{1}{4}(1-\cos 2t)\hat{k}$

3 In a television tube, an electron starting from rest experiences a force of 4.0 × 10−15 N over a distance of 50 cm. The final

MAXImum [283]

Answer:

The final speed of the electron = 2.095×10⁸ m/s

Explanation:

From newton's fundamental equation of dynamics,

F = ma ........................Equation 1

Where F = force, m = mass of the electron, a = acceleration of the electron.

making a the subject of the equation,

a = F/m.................... Equation 2

Given: F = 4.0×10⁻¹⁵ N,

Constant: m = 9.109×10⁻³¹ kg.

Substituting into equation 2

a = 4.0×10⁻¹⁵/9.109×10⁻³¹

a = 4.39×10¹⁶ m/s².

Using newton's equation of motion,

v² = u²+2as .......................... Equation 3

Where v = final velocity of the electron, u = initial velocity of the electron, a = acceleration of the electron, s = distance covered by the electron.

Given: u = 0 m/s(at rest), s = 50 cm = 0.5 m, a = 4.39×10¹⁶ m/s²

Substituting into equation 3

v² = 0² + 2(0.5)(4.39×10¹⁶)

v = √(4.39×10¹⁶)

v = 2.095×10⁸ m/s

Thus the final speed of the electron = 2.095×10⁸ m/s
