Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When the child is tossed up into the air then she gains kinetic energy as the child has moved from its initial position.

It is given that mass is 20 kg, velocity is $5 m/s^{2}$ , and height is 2 m.

Calculate the kinetic energy of child as follows.

kinetic energy = $\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}$

= $\frac{1}{2}20 kg \times (5 m/s)^{2}$

= $10 kg \times 25 m^{2}/s^{2}$

= $250 kg m^{2}/s^{2}$

Also, when child falls off the ground then she will have gravitational potential energy.

Calculate gravitational potential energy of child as follows.

Potential energy = m × g × h

= $20 kg \times 9.8 m/s^{2} \times 2 m$

= $392 kg m^{2}/s^{2}$

The child has kinetic energy (KE) because she's moving, and gravitational potential energy (GPE) because she's off the ground.
KE = 1/2mv²
KE = 1/2 (20 kg)(5 m/s)²
KE = 50 J

Ug (gravitational potential energy) = mgy
Ug = (20)(9.8)(2) = 392 J

A 100-kg running back runs at 5 m/s into a stationary linebacker. It takes 0.5 s for the running back to be completely stopped.

Elza [17]

Answer:

1000 N

Explanation:

First, we need to find the deceleration of the running back, which is given by:

$a=\frac{v-u}{t}$

where

v = 0 is his final velocity

u = 5 m/s is his initial velocity

t = 0.5 s is the time taken

Substituting, we have

$a=\frac{0-5 m/s}{0.5 s}=-10 m/s^2$

And now we can calculate the force exerted on the running back, by using Newton's second law:

$F=ma=(100 kg)(-10 m/s^2)=-1000 N$

so, the magnitude of the force is 1000 N.

____ is the detection of halo objects like brown dwarfs when their gravitational fields concentrate the light of distant sources

maksim [4K]

Answer:

Microlensing.

Explanation:

This techniques is called Microlensing.

Microlensing is a method of gravitational lensing where light from a backdrop point of origin is curved to develop distorted, numerous and/or lightened images by the gravity field of a foreground lens.

This method is very effective in discovering planets that are far-far from earth.It is actually an astronomical effect that was predicted by Albert Einstein's general theory of relativity.

(a-2) Work (Wf) done by the friction force while the mass is sliding down the in- clined plane:

Wf= -20.4 J is negative

(b) Work (Wg) done by the gravitational force while the mass is sliding down the inclined plane:

Wg= 58.8 J is positive

Explanation:

Nomenclature

vf: final velocity

v₀ :initial velocity

a: acceleleration

d: distance

Ff: Friction force

W: weight

m:mass

g: acceleration due to gravity

The attached graph describes the variables related to the kinetics of the object (forces and accelerations)

Calculation de of the components of W in the inclined plane

W=m*g

Wx₁ = m*g*sin30°

Wy₁= m*g*cos30°

Object kinematics on the inclined plane

vf₁²=v₀₁²+2*a₁*d₁

v₀₁=0

vf₁²=2*a₁*d₁

$v_{f1} = \sqrt{2*a_{1}*d_{1} }$ Equation (1)

Object kinetics on the inclined plane (μ= 0.2)

∑Fx₁=ma₁ :Newton's second law

-Ff₁+Wx₁ = ma₁ , Ff₁=μN₁

-μ₁N₁+Wx₁ = ma₁ Equation (2)

∑Fy₁=0 : Newton's first law

N₁-Wy₁= 0

N₁- m*g*cos30°=0

N₁ = m*g*cos30°

We replace N₁ = m*g*cos30 and Wx₁ = m*g*sin30° in the equation (2)

-μ₁m*g*cos30₁+m*g*sin30° = ma₁ : We divide by m

-μ₁*g*cos30°+g*sin30° = a₁

g*(-μ₁*cos30°+sin30°) = a₁

a₁ =9.8(-0.2*cos30°+sin30°)=3.2 m/s²

We replace a₁ =3.2 m/s² and d₁= 3m in the equation (1)

$v_{f1} = \sqrt{2*3.2*3} }$

$v_{f1} =\sqrt{2*3.2*3}$

$v_{f1} = 4.38 m/s$

Rough surface kinematics

vf₂²=v₀₂²+2*a₂*d₂ v₀₂=vf₁=4.38 m/s

-Ff₂=ma₂

--μ₂*N₂ = ma₂ Equation (4)

∑Fy₂= 0 :Newton's first law

N₂-W=0

N₂=W=m*g

We replace N₂=m*g inthe equation (4)

--μ₂*m*g = ma₂ We divide by m

--μ₂*g = a₂

a₂ =-0.2*9.8= -1.96m/s²

We replace a₂ = -1.96m/s² in the equation (3)

0 =4.38²+2*-1.96*d₂

3.92*d₂ = 4.38²

d₂=4.38²/3.92

(a-1) d₂=4.89 m: The object slides 4.89 m along the rough surface

(a-2) Work (Wf) done by the friction force while the mass is sliding down the in- clined plane:

Wf = - Ff₁*d₁

Ff₁= μ₁N₁= μ₁*m*g*cos30°= -0.2*4*9.8*cos30° = 6,79 N

Wf= - 6.79*3 = 20.4 N*m

Wf= -20.4 J is negative

(b) Work (Wg) done by the gravitational force while the mass is sliding down the inclined plane

Wg=W₁x*d= m*g*sin30*3=4*9.8*0.5*3= 58.8 N*m

Wg= 58.8 J is positive
