How to use kinetic energy to calculate velocity

Physics
1 answer:
BartSMP [9]3 years ago
7 0

As we know the formula of kinetic energy is

KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2

here given that

KE = 150,000 J

mass = 120 kg

we can use this to find speed

150,000 = \frac{1}{2} * 120 * v^2

v^2 = 2500

v = 50 m/s

So speed of above object is 50 m/s

A man at point A directs his rowboat due north toward point B, straight across a river of width 100 m. The river current is due
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

1.35208 m/s

Explanation:

Speed of the boat = 0.75 m/s

Distance between the shores = 100 m

Time = Distance / Speed

Time=\frac{100}{0.75}=133.33\ s

Time taken by the boat to get across is 133.33 seconds

Point C is 150 m from B

Speed = Distance / Time

Speed=\frac{150}{\frac{100}{0.75}}=1.125\ m/s

Velocity of the water is 1.125 m/s

From Pythagoras theorem

c=\sqrt{0.75^2+1.125^2}\\\Rightarrow c=1.35208\ m/s

So, the man's velocity relative to the shore is 1.35208 m/s

Suppose for your cookout you need to make 100 hamburgers. You know that 2.00 pounds will make 9 hamburgers. How many pounds will
VMariaS [17]
2 pounds = 9 burgers figure out ow many 9's you can get out of 100: 100/9=11 but that only makes 99 you need 100 so we would add another one making 12. now multiply 12 by 2: 12·2=24. You would need 24 pounds of meet :)

How long does it take for a train to increase its velocity from 10m/s to 40m/s if it accelerates at 3 m/s
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Givens

Vi = 10 m/s

Vf = 40 m/s

a = 3 m/s^2

Formula

a = (vf - vi) /t              Substitute the givens into this formuls

Solution

3 = (40 - 10) / t          Multiply both sides by t

3*t = t(40 - 10)/t        Combine. Cancel t's on the right

3*t = 30                     Divide by 3

3t/3 = 30 / 3

Answer: t = 10 seconds.

Definition of continental polar
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

Continental polar (cP) or continental arctic (cA) air masses are cold, dry, and stable. These air masses originate over northern Canada and Alaska as a result of radiational cooling. Maritime polar (mP) air masses are cool, moist, and unstable.
