The Kinetic energy, K, of an object with mass m moving with velocity v can be found using the formula - E_{\text{k}}={\tfrac {1}

tester [92]

Answer:

The ratio of kinetic energies of 5 kg object to 20 kg object is 1:1.

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is defined as energy possessed by an object due to its motion.It is calculated by:

$K.E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

Kinetic energy of the 5 kg object.

Mass of object,m = 5 kg

Velocity of an object = v

$K.E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2=\frac{1}{2}\times 5kg\times v^2$

Kinetic energy of the 20 kg object.

Mass of object,m' = 20 kg

Velocity of an object = v'

$K.E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2=\frac{1}{2}\times 20kg\times v'^2$

The ratio of the kinetic energy of the 5 kilogram object to the kinetic energy of the 20-kilogram object:

$\frac{K.E}{K.E'}=\frac{\frac{1}{2}\times 5kg\times v^2}{\frac{1}{2}\times 20kg\times v'^2}$

Given that, v = 2v'

$\frac{K.E}{K.E'}=\frac{1}{1}$

The ratio of kinetic energies of 5 kg object to 20 kg object is 1:1.

Find the position of the center of mass of the system of the sun and Jupiter? (Since Jupiter is more massive than the rest of th

8090 [49]

Answer:

$r_{cm} = 0.074 m$ from the position of the center of the Sun

Explanation:

As we know that mass of Sun and Jupiter is given as

$M_s = 1.98 \times 10^{30} kg$

$M_j = 1.89 \times 10^{27} kg$

distance between Sun and Jupiter is given as

$r = 7.78 \times 10^{11} m$

now let the position of Sun is origin and position of Jupiter is given at the position same as the distance between them

so we will have

$r_{cm} = \frac{M_s r_1 + M_j r_2}{M_s + M_j}$

$r_{cm} = \frac{1.98 \times 10^{30} (0) + (1.89 \times 10^{27})(7.78 \times 10^{11})}{1.98 \times 10^{30} + 1.89 \times 10^{27}}$

$r_{cm} = 0.074 m$ from the position of the center of the Sun

Which color is in the middle of the light spectrum?

Elanso [62]

Well, with the light spectrum there technically is no middle color. Both green and yellow meet up in the middle at 560 nm (wavelength interval) and 540 THz (frequency interval).
