Answer: 96.138 J

Explanation:

Use equation for potential gravitational energy : Ep=mGh

Ep1=mGh1

Ep2=mGh2

-------------

Ep1= 3.5*9.81*1.2

Ep1=41.202 J

Ep2=3.5*9.81*4

Ep2=137.34 J

Ep=Ep2-Ep1

Ep=137.34-41.202

Ep= 96.138 J

At the circus, a 100.-kilogram clown is fired at 15 meters per second from a 500.- kilogram cannon. What is the recoil speed of
photoshop1234 [79]

The recoil velocity of cannon is (4) 5.0 m/s

Explanation:

We can find the recoil velocity from the law of conservation of momentum.

The recoil velocity is velocity of body 2 after release of body 1, i.e. velocity of cannon after release of clown.

Let v2 be cannon's velocity, v1 be clown's velocity given = 15 m/sec

m1 be clown's mass = 100kg and m2 be cannon's mass given = 500kg.

So recoil velocity of cannon v2 is given by,

v2 = -(m1÷m2)v1

v2 = -(100÷500)15

v2 = -5 m/s

where the minus sign refers to the direction of cannon's recoil velocity being opposite to that of clown.

Hence, option (4)5.0 m/s is the correct answer.

Answer:

Lubrication is used to reduce friction. It is generally used for moving machine parts. The lubricants are the substances which are used to reduce the friction which acts between two surfaces in contact, between which relative motion can occur.
