Find the speed of a 5.6-kg bowling ball that has a kinetic energy of 25.2 J.

1 answer:

7 0

      Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed)²

         25.2 J      = (1/2) (5.6kg) (speed)²

Divide each side
by (2.8 kg) :    25.2 J / 2.8 kg =   speed²

Take the square root
of each side:    speed = √(9 m²/sec²)

          = 3 m/s .

If I were to transmit a radio wave in our three dimensional world could a fourth dimensional “being” be able to receive it?

Morgarella [4.7K]

Depends. Are you talking about a mathematical 4th dimension (in which there is infinite dimensions) or some sort of etheral dimension (in which there is no scientific evidence for)

If you mean the first then yes. But it depends how these beings exist. From our understanding we only can theorize shapes in 4-d and if we assume that there is only one universe these "beings" arleady exist and thus any message in 3-d would be sent to them like a shadow ("flat").
If they exist in a alternate "plane" then you would need some method to transverse this plan and if u did, then we would easily be able to communicate, but we would at first sound like a wild animal. They either would ignore us, not understand or perceive us, or they would attempt to send back a signal (essential they are ET's)

IF you mean the second then thats some mystic stuff and its pretty creepy (although a fun read for me :P)

What factor affects sensation

Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

D physiological condition

Explanation:

Sensation and perceptions are complimentary to each other but have different roles within the brain. Sensations are the process of experiencing the world with the five senses and sending that information to the brain. Perceptions are the way we interpret sensations.

What are the strength and direction of an electric field that will balance the weight of a 0.9 g plastic sphere that has been ch

Vladimir79 [104]

(a) The force exerted by the electric field on the plastic sphere is equal to
$F=qE$
where $q=-3.4 nC=-3.4 \cdot 10^{-9} C$ is the charge of the sphere and E is the strength of the electric field. This force should balance the weight of the sphere:
$F=mg =0.9 g$
where m is the mass of the sphere and g is the gravitational acceleration.

Since the two forces must be equal, we have:
$qE=mg$
and so we find the intensity of the electric field
$E= \frac{mg}{q}= \frac{0.9 \cdot 9.81 m/s^2}{3.4 \cdot 10^{-9} C} =2.6 \cdot 10^9 N/C$

(b) Now let's find the direction of the field. The electric force must balance the weight of the sphere, which is directed downward, so the electric force should be directed upward. Since the charge is negative, the force is opposite to the electric field direction, and so the direction of the electric field is downward.

A Ford Mustang weighs about 3500 pounds, and can accelerate from 0-60 MPH in about 5 seconds. What force is responsible for this

Hunter-Best [27]

We will apply the concepts related to Newton's second law. At the same time we will convert everything to the system of international units.

$m = 3500lb = 1587.57kg$
