<em>Quantities that determine the kinetic energy of a body are its </em><em>mass and velocity </em>

Answer:  <em>mass and velocity </em>

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of a body is the energy possessed by an object by virtue of its motion. It is given by the equation

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

Where m represents mass of the body and v represents its velocity.

Two bodies of equal velocity but different mass the heavier body will have greater kinetic energy. When an object is at rest its velocity is equal to zero. Thus its kinetic energy will be zero. Hence it can be concluded that only moving bodies have kinetic energy.

Stationary objects placed at a height possess potential energy which is the energy by virtue of their position or configuration. The total mechanical energy of a system is the sum of potential and kinetic energy.

After landing on an unfamiliar planet, a space explorer constructs a simple pendulum of length 54.0 cm. The explorer finds that
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

g = 11.2 m/s²

Explanation:

First, we will calculate the time period of the pendulum:

T = \frac{t}{n}

where,

T = Time period = ?

t = time taken = 135 s

n = no. of swings in given time = 98

Therefore,

T = \frac{135\ s}{98}

T = 1.38 s

Now, we utilize the second formula for the time period of the simple pendulum, given as follows:

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}

where,

l = length of pendulum = 54 cm = 0.54 m

g = acceleration due to gravity on the planet = ?

Therefore,

(1.38\ s)^2 = 4\pi^2(\frac{0.54\ m}{g} )\\\\g = \frac{4\pi^2(0.54\ m)}{(1.38\ s)^2}

<u>g = 11.2 m/s²</u>

victus00 [196]

Answer:

Newton's third law of motion states that for every action, there is equal and opposite reaction.

While space walking, when the astronaut gets detached from the space ship, she floats in space holding a wrench. In order to get back to the spaceship, she should throw the wrench in the opposite direction of the spaceship. This action would  cause a reaction on her own body and she would be pushed away from the wrench and towards the spaceship. Thus, she can return back to the spaceship in this way.
