Answer:

A. 40 J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is:

KE = ½ mv²

where m is mass and v is velocity.

Given m = 20 kg and v = 2 m/s:

KE = ½ (20 kg) (2 m/s)²

KE = 40 J

A small 20-kg canoe is floating downriver at a speed of 2 m/s. 40 J is the canoe’s kinetic energy.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

The given canoe has the mass and is being given to move at a speed. Therefore the kinetic energy of the canoe can be calculated using the following method,

Given that mass of the canoe = 20 kg and its speed =1 m/s

As we know that the Kinetic energy has the formula,

\text {Kinetic energy}=\frac{1}{2} \boldsymbol{m} \boldsymbol{v}^{2}

Therefore, substituting the value into the equation, we get,  

K . E .=\frac{1}{2} \times 20 \times 2^{2} = 40 J

marishachu [46]

Answer:

1) Periodically check the no stop or NDL time on their computers

2) The dive computer planning mode can be used if available

3) Make use of a dive planning app

4) Check data from the RDP table or an eRDPML

Explanation:

The no stop times information from the computer gives the no-decompression limit (NDL) time allowable which is the time duration a diver theoretically is able to stay at a given depth without a need for a decompression stop

The dive computer plan mode or a downloadable dive planning app are presently the easiest methods of dive planning

The PADI RDP are dive planners based on several years of experience which provide reliable safety limits of depth and time.

A racecar accelerates from rest at 6.5 m/s2 for 4.1 s. How fast will it be going at the end of that time?
Pie

Answer:

The final velocity of the car is 26.65 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

acceleration of the racecar, a = 6.5 m/s²

initial velocity of the car, u = 0

time of motion, t = 4.1 s

The final velocity of the car is given by;

v = u + at

where;

v is the final velocity of the car

suvstitute the givens

v = 0 + (6.5)(4.1)

v = 26.65 m/s.

Therefore, the final velocity of the car is 26.65 m/s.

A volleyball is dropped from a cliff and a soccer ball is thrown upward from the same position. When each ball reaches the groun
vredina [299]
The question is whether the statement is true or false.

The answer if false.

Explanation:

It is exactly the opposite. The soccer ball will hit the ground with greater velocity.

Since the soccer ball is thrown upward, when it returns to the same heigth from which it was throwm it will have a velocity downward, which will make that the soocer ball reaches the ground at the bottom of the clif with greater velocity than the volleball.

The greater the velocity with which the soccer ball is thrown upward, the greater its velocity when reaches the same point from which it was thrown, and the greater the velocity with which it will hit the ground at the bottom of the clif.
