Answer:

60m/s

Explanation:

initial energy = final energy

g.p.e = k.e

k.e = 0.5 × mass × velocity²

g.p.e = 990000J as per Question

990000Nm = 0.5 × 550 × V²

V² = 3600

V = 60m/s

After a big snowfall, you take your favorite rocket‑powered sled out to a wide field. The field is 223 m223 m across, and you kn
pogonyaev

Answer:

11.7 s

Explanation:

In this problem, the rocket is moving in a uniform accelerated motion. We have the following data:

d = 223 m, the distance that the sled has to cover

a=3.25 m/s^2, the acceleration of the rocket

We can use therefore the following SUVAT equation:

d=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where

d is the distance

u = 0 is the initial velocity of the sled (it starts from rest)

t is the time

a is the acceleration

Re-arranging the equation and substituting the numbers, we find the time it takes for the rocket to cross the field:

d=\frac{1}{2}at^2\\t=\sqrt{\frac{2d}{a}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(223)}{3.25}}=11.7 s

An apparatus like the one Cavendish used to find G has large lead balls that are 5.2 kg in mass and small ones that are 0.046 kg.
Ber [7]

Answer:

The magnitude of gravitational force between two masses is 4.91\times 10^{-9}\ N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of first lead ball, m_1=5.2\ kg

Mass of the other lead ball, m_2=0.046\ kg

The center of a large ball is separated by 0.057 m from the center of a small ball, r = 0.057 m

We need to find the magnitude of the gravitational force between the masses. It is given by the formula of the gravitational force. It is given by :

F=G\dfrac{m_1m_2}{r^2}\\\\F=6.67259\times 10^{-11}\times \dfrac{5.2\times 0.046}{(0.057)^2}\\\\F=4.91\times 10^{-9}\ N

So, the magnitude of gravitational force between two masses is 4.91\times 10^{-9}\ N. Hence, this is the required solution.

) Water flows through a horizontal coil heated from the outside by high-temperature flue gases. As it passes through the coil th
Mademuasel [1]

Explanation:

Formula for steady flow energy equation for the flow of fluid is as follows.

    m[h_{1} + \frac{V^{2}_{1}}{2}] + z_{1}g] + q = m[h_{1} + \frac{V^{2}_{1}}{2} + z_{1}g] + w

Now, we will substitute 0 for both z_{1} and z_{2}, 0 for w, 334.9 kJ/kg for h_{1}, 2726.5 kJ/kg for h_{2}, 5 m/s for V_{1} and 220 m/s for V_{2}.

Putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

     m[h_{1} + \frac{V^{2}_{1}}{2}] + z_{1}g] + q = m[h_{1} + \frac{V^{2}_{1}}{2} + z_{1}g] + w  

     1 \times [334.9 \times 10^{3} J/kg + \frac{(5 m/s)^{2}}{2} + 0] + q = 1 \times [2726.5 \times 10^{3} + \frac{(220 m/s)^{2}}{2} + 0] + 0

                q = 6597.711 kJ

Thus, we can conclude that heat transferred through the coil per unit mass of water is 6597.711 kJ.

Increasing the speed of an object blank its potential energy ​
ella [17]

There is no direct connection between the speed of an object and its potential energy.  

UNLESS the object is falling, and it's GETTING its speed FROM its potential energy.  If that's what's going on, then of course if the speed increases, the object's kinetic energy increases, and that increase has to come from using up some of the potential energy.
