You run a race with your friend. At first you each have the same kinetic energy, but then you find that she is beating you. When

Blizzard [7]

Answer:

52.49 Kg

Explanation:

Let m1 and v1 denote your mass and velocity respectively

Let m2 and v2 denote your friends mass and velocity respectively

Kinetic energy is given by

$KE= 0.5mv^{2}$

Since your kinetic energies are the same hence

$0.5m1(v1)^{2}=0.5m2(v2)^{2}$

$m1(v1)^{2}=m2(v2)^{2}$ and making m2 the subject then

$m2=\frac { m1(v1)^{2}}{(v2)^{2}}$

Since v2 is v1+0.28v1=1.28v1

Substituting m1 for 86 Kg

$m2=\frac { 86 Kg(v1)^{2}}{(1.28v1)^{2}}= 52.49023\approx 52.49 Kg$

The momentum of a falling rock is found to be 200 kg m/s. What is the mass of the rock if it falls with a velocity of 5.0 m/s

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 40 \ kilograms}}$

Explanation:

Momentum is the product of velocity and mass. The formula is:

$p=m*v$

We know the rock is falling. Its momentum is 200 kilograms meters per second and its velocity is 5 meters per second. Substitute the values into the formula.

$200 \ kg \ m/s = m * 5.0 \ m/s$

We are solving for m, the mass. We must isolate the variable. It is being multiplied by 5 meters per second. The inverse of multiplication is division, so we divided both sides by 5.0 m/s.

$\frac{200 \ kg \ m/s}{5.0 \ m/s}=\frac{ m* 5.0 \ m/s }{5.0 \ m/s}$

$\frac{200 \ kg \ m/s}{5.0 \ m/s}=m$

The units of meters per second (m/s) cancel.

$\frac{200 \ kg}{5.0 } =m$

$40 \ kg = m$

The falling rock has a mass of <u>40 kilograms.</u>

A wave of infrared light has a speed of 6m/s and a wave length of 12 m. What is the frequency of this wave?

erastovalidia [21]

Frequency = speed / wavelength

(6 m/s) / (12 m) = 0.5 Hz.

That's not infrared light.
Infrared light waves move about 50 million times faster than that, and they're only about 0.00000007 as long as that.
