Answer:
(a). Energy is 64,680 J
(b) velocity is 51.43m/s
(c) velocity in mph is 115.0mph
Explanation:
(a).
The potential energy
of the payload of mass
is at a vertical distance
is
.
Therefore, for the payload of mass
at a vertical distance of
, the potential energy is


(b).
When the payload reaches the bottom of the shaft, all of its potential energy is converted into its kinetic energy; therefore,




(c).
The velocity in mph is


Answer:
Styrofoam would be the best insulator because it traps the air in small pockets, blocking the flow of heat energy.
Explanation:
Answer:
The option is B is not true for Hubble telescope.
<u>Answer:</u> The ball is travelling with a speed of 5.5 m/s after hitting the <u>bottle.</u>
<u>Explanation:</u>
To calculate the speed of ball after the collision, we use the equation of law of conservation of momentum, which is given by:

where,
are the mass, initial velocity and final velocity of ball.
are the mass, initial velocity and final velocity of bottle.
We are given:

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Hence, the ball is travelling with a speed of 5.5 m/s after hitting the bottle.
Answer:
a) 
b) 
c) 
Explanation:
From the exercise we know the initial velocity of the projectile and its initial height

To find what time does it take to reach maximum height we need to find how high will it go
b) We can calculate its initial height using the following formula
Knowing that its velocity is zero at its maximum height



So, the projectile goes 1024 ft high
a) From the equation of height we calculate how long does it take to reach maximum point



Solving the quadratic equation



So, the projectile reach maximum point at t=2s
c) We can calculate the final velocity by using the following formula:


Since the projectile is going down the velocity at the instant it reaches the ground is:
