Answer:

<h3>40.0 Joules. None of the answers is correct</h3>

Explanation:

Kinetic energy of an object is expressed as;

KE = 1/2mv² where;

m is the mass of the object

V is the velocity of the object.

Let Ma be the mass of the basketball and Mb be the mass of baseball.

If the mass of the basketball shown below is 4 times the mass of the baseball, then Ma = 4Mb

KE of the basket ball = 1/2MaVa²

Va² = 2(KE)a/Ma ...... 1

KE of the baseball = 1/2MbVb²

Vb² = 2(KE)b/Mb .......... 2

Since their velocities are the same, hence Va²= Vb²

2(KE)a/Ma = 2(KE)b/Mb

Substituting Ma = 4Mb into the resulting expression.

2(KE)a/4Mb = 2(KE)b/Mb

2(KE)a/4 = 2(KE)b

Given Kinetic energy of baseball (KE)b = 10.0J, the expression becomes;

2(KE)a/4 = 2(10)

2(KE)a = 4*20

2(KE)a = 80

(KE)a = 80/2

(KE)a = 40.0J

Hence the kinetic energy of the basketball is 40.0Joules

inysia [295]

A shopping cart that starts from rest, is accelerated for 4 s, moves at constant velocity for 4 s, and is decelerated for 4s until returning to rest, has an average acceleration of 0 m/s².

A shopper is pushing a cart down a grocery store aisle. The movement of the cart is:

  • It starts from rest.
  • From t = 0 s to t = 4.0 s it is accelerated with a constant force.
  • From t = 4 s to t = 8.0 s it receives just enough force to balance the friction on the cart.
  • From t = 8 s to t = 12 s it is decelerated until it comes to rest.

All in all, at the initial time (t = 0 s), the velocity is 0 m/s (rest) and at the final time (t = 12 s) the velocity is 0 m/s as well (rest). The average acceleration in that period is:

a = \frac{v_{12}-v__o}{t_{12}-t_0} = \frac{0m/m-0m/s}{12s-0s}  = 0 m/s^{2}

A shopping cart that starts from rest, is accelerated for 4 s, moves at constant velocity for 4 s, and is decelerated for 4s until returning to rest, has an average acceleration of 0 m/s².

A 525 kg satellite is in a circular orbit at an altitude of 575 km above the Earth's surface. Because of air friction, the satel
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

1.69\cdot 10^{10}J

Explanation:

The total energy of the satellite when it is still in orbit is given by the formula

E=-G\frac{mM}{2r}

where

G is the gravitational constant

m = 525 kg is the mass of the satellite

M=5.98\cdot 10^{24}kg is the Earth's mass

r is the distance of the satellite from the Earth's center, so it is the sum of the Earth's radius and the altitude of the satellite:

r=R+h=6370 km +575 km=6945 km=6.95\cdot 10^6 m

So the initial total energy is

E_i=-(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})\frac{(525 kg)(5.98\cdot 10^{24} kg)}{2(6.95\cdot 10^6 m)}=-1.51\cdot 10^{10}J

When the satellite hits the ground, it is now on Earth's surface, so

r=R=6370 km=6.37\cdot 10^6 m

so its gravitational potential energy is

U = -G\frac{mM}{r}=-(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})\frac{(525 kg)(5.98\cdot 10^{24}kg)}{6.37\cdot 10^6 m}=-3.29\cdot 10^{10} J

And since it hits the ground with speed

v=1.90 km/s = 1900 m/s

it also has kinetic energy:

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2=\frac{1}{2}(525 kg)(1900 m/s)^2=9.48\cdot 10^8 J

So the total energy when the satellite hits the ground is

E_f = U+K=-3.29\cdot 10^{10}J+9.48\cdot 10^8 J=-3.20\cdot 10^{10} J

So the energy transformed into internal energy due to air friction is the difference between the total initial energy and the total final energy of the satellite:

\Delta E=E_i-E_f=-1.51\cdot 10^{10} J-(-3.20\cdot 10^{10} J)=1.69\cdot 10^{10}J

Which pair of chromosomes is the s3x chromosomes? Why?
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Autosomes are homologous chromosomes i.e. chromosomes which contain the same genes (regions of DNA) in the same order along their chromosomal arms. The chromosomes of the 23rd pair are called allosomes consisting of two X chromosomes in most females, and an X chromosome and a Y chromosome in most males.
