Question 18

Physics
1 answer:
Sedaia [141]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

5.5 kg

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy of an object is given by

U=mgh

where

m is its mass

g is the acceleration of gravity

h is the height of the object above the ground

For the rock in the problem, we know:

h = 12 m is the height above the ground

U = 650 J

g = 9.8 m/s^2

Therefore, we can solve the equation for m, the mass of the rock:

m=\frac{U}{gh}=\frac{650}{(9.8)(12)}=5.5 kg

Shkiper50 [21]

For the velocity graph: start at 0s and 4m/s and draw a straight line to 2s and 2 m/s. Then draw a straight horizontal line to 4s and 2m/s

For the acceleration graph: start with a horizontal line from 0s and 2m/s/s to 2s and 2m/s/s. The draw another line from 2 s and 0m/s/s to 4 s and 0m/s/s

attashe74 [19]

Assuming that the students worldwide are being considered, because of the extremely large population, this can be considered as a binomial distribution. A normal distribution is used most usually as a fair approximation of the binomial. The mean is the expectation, therefore:<span>
E[x] = np = (16)(0.22) = 3.52

A penny is placed on a rotating turntable. where on the turntable does the penny require the largest centripetal force to remain
Mama L [17]

m = mass of the penny

r = distance of the penny from the center of the turntable or axis of rotation

w = angular speed of rotation of turntable

F = centripetal force experienced by the penny

centripetal force "F" experienced by the penny of "m" at distance "r" from axis of rotation is given as

F = m r w²

in the above equation , mass of penny "m"  and angular speed "w" of the turntable is same at all places. hence the centripetal force directly depends on the radius .

hence greater the distance from center , greater will be the centripetal force to remain in place.  

So at the edge of the turntable , the penny experiences largest centripetal force to remain in place.

15. A body moving with a velocity of 20 m/s begins to accelerate at 3 m/s2. How far does the body move in 5 seconds? A. 137.5 m
Rudik [331]

Answer is B. According to the equation of motion s = vt + 1/2 at2 Where s is distance covered, v is velocity, a is acceleration and t is time taken. So, by putting all the values, we get s = (20)(5) + 1/2 (3)(5)2 s = 100 + 1/2 (3)(25) s = 100 + 1/2 75 s = 100 + 37.5 s = 137.5 meters
