How does kinetic energy connect or relate to Newtons second law of motion?

Newtons second law of motion: "T<span>he acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object."

kinetic energy is energy that an object posses while in motion and to get that it must have potential energy.</span>

The second law of motion is: <em>"Force equals mass times acceleration"</em>. Newton’s first law says that a net external force results in a change in motion; thus, we see that a net external force causes acceleration, which is <em>"the rate of change of velocity per unit of time"</em>. In physics, the kinetic energy of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion and it is defined as the work needed to accelerate a body of a given mass from rest to its stated velocity. So Kinetic energy is somewhat related to acceleration which is used in Newton's second law of motion.

A bee wants to fly to a flower located due North of the hive on a windy day. The wind blows from East to West at speed 6.68 m/s.
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:  53.31\° East of North

Explanation:

We have the following data:

Speed of the wind from East to West: 6.68 m/s

Speed of the bee relative to the air:  8.33 m/s

If we graph these speeds (which in fact are velocities because are vectors) in a vector diagram, we will have a right triangle in which the airspeed of the bee (its speed relative to te air) is the hypotense and the two sides of the triangle will be the <u>Speed of the wind from East to West</u> (in the horintal part) and the <u>speed due North relative to the ground</u> (in the vertical part).

Now, we need to find the direction the bee should fly directly to the flower (due North):

sin \theta=\frac{Windspeed-from-East-to-West}{Speed-bee-relative-to-air}

sin \theta=\frac{6.68 m/s}{8.33 m/s}

Clearing \theta:

\theta=sin^{-1} (\frac{6.68 m/s}{8.33 m/s})

\theta=53.31\°

Se coloca una piedra de 600 g en una Honda de 50 cm y se la hace girar a una velocidad de 4 m/s. Dibuja la fuerza que ejerce la
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

Fc = 19.2 N

Explanation:

In this case, the force of the Honda over the rock, is a centripetal force. Then, you have:

F_c=m\frac{v^2}{r}

m: mass of the rock = 600g = 0.6 kg

v: tangential velocity of the Honda = 4m/s

r: radius of the Honda = 50cm = 0.5m

You replace the values of m, r and v in the equation for Fc:

F_c=(0.6kg)\frac{(4m/s)^2}{0.5m}\\\\F_c=19.2N

hence, the force has a magnitude of 19.2 N

If the rock would have more mass the centripetal force would be higher

Consider a river flowing toward a lake at an average speed of 3 m/s at a rate of 550 m3/s at a location 58 m above the lake surf
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

1. 0.574 kJ/kg

2. 315.7 MW

Explanation:

1. The mechanical energy per unit mass of the river is given by:

E_{m} = E_{k} + E_{p}

E_{m} = \frac{1}{2}v^{2} + gh

Where:

Ek is the kinetic energy

Ep is the potential energy

v is the speed of the river = 3 m/s

g is the gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h is the height = 58 m

E_{m} = \frac{1}{2}(3 m/s)^{2} + 9.81 m/s^{2}*58 m = 0.574 kJ/Kg

Hence, the total mechanical energy of the river is 0.574 kJ/kg.

2. The power generation potential on the river is:

P = m(t)E_{m} = \rho*V(t)*E_{m} = 1000 kg/m^{3}*550 m^{3}/s*0.574 kJ/kg = 315.7 MW

Therefore, the power generation potential of the entire river is 315.7 MW.

I hope it helps you!
