Field lines point straight out from all sides of an object. Which statement best describes the object?

How does the kinetic energy from the forward motion of a car traveling at 16 m/s

elena55 [62]

The kinetic energy in the first case is 4 times more than the second case.

Hence, option D)It is 4 times greater is the correct answer.

<h3>What is Kinetic Energy?</h3>

Kinetic energy is simply a form of energy a particle or object possesses due to its motion.

It is expressed as;

K = (1/2)mv²

Where m is mass of the object and v is its velocity.

Given that;

For the first case, velocity v = 16m/s
For the second case, velocity = 8m/s
Let the mass of the car be m

For the first case, kinetic energy of the car will be;

K = (1/2)mv²

K = (1/2) × m × (16m/s)²

K = (1/2) × m × 256m²/s²

K = mass × 128m²/s²

For the second case, kinetic energy of the car will be;

K = (1/2)mv²

K = (1/2) × m × (8m/s)²

K = (1/2) × m × 64m²/s²

K = mass × 32m²/s²

Comparing the kinetic energy of the car with the same mass but different velocity, we can see that the kinetic energy in the first case is 4 times more than the second case.

Hence, option D)It is 4 times greater is the correct answer.

The largest watermelon ever grown had a mass of 118 kg. Suppose this watermelon were exhibited on a platform 5.00 m above the gr

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer: height = 3.98m

Explanation: by placing the watermelon at a height above the ground, it has a potential energy of the formulae

p = mgh

p = potential energy = 4.61kJ = 4610J

m = mass of watermelon = 118 kg

g = acceleration due gravity = 9.8 m/s²

4610 = 118 * 9.8 * h

h = 4610/ 118 * 9.8

h = 4610/ 1156.4

h = 3.98m

a ballistic pendulum is used to measure the speed of high-speed projectiles. A 6 g bullet A is fired into a 1 kg wood block B su

Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

(a) v-bullet = 399.04 m/s

(b) I = 2.38 kg m/s

(c) T = 2.59 N

Explanation:

(a) To calculate the initial speed of the bullet, you first take into account that the kinetic energy of both wood block and bullet, just after the bullet impacts the block, is equal to the potential gravitational energy of block and bullet when the cord is at 60° respect to the vertical.

The potential energy is given by:

$U=(M+m)gh$ (1)

U: potential energy

M: mass of the wood block = 1 kg

m: mass of the bullet = 6g = 6.0*10^-3 kg

g: gravitational constant = 9.8m/s^2

h: distance to the ground

The distance to the ground is calculate d by using the information about the length of the cord and the degrees of the cord respect to the vertical:

$h=l-lsin\theta\\\\h=2.2m-2,2m\ sin60\°=0.29m$

The potential energy is:

$U=(1kg+6*10^{-3}kg)(9.8m/s^2)(0.29m)=2.85J$

Next, the potential energy is equal to kinetic energy of the block and the bullet at the beginning of its motion:

$U=\frac{1}{2}(M+m)v^2\\\\v=\sqrt{2\frac{U}{M+m}}=\sqrt{2\frac{2.85J}{1kg+6*10^{-3}kg}}=2.38\frac{m}{s}$

Next, you use the momentum conservation law, in order to calculate the speed of the bullet before the impact:

$Mv_1+mv_2=(M+m)v$ (2)

v1: initial velocity of the wood block = 0m/s

v2: initial speed of the bullet

v: speed of bullet and block = 2.38m/s

You solve the equation (2) for v2:

$M(0)+mv_2=(M+m)v$

$v_2=\frac{M+m}{m}v=\frac{1kg+6*10^{-3}kg}{6*10^{-3}kg}(2.38m/s)\\\\v_2=399.04\frac{m}{s}$

The speed of the bullet before the impact with the wood block is 399.04 m/s

(b) The impulse is gibe by the change in the velocity of the block, multiplied by the mass of the block:

$I=M\Delta v=M(v-v_1)=(1kg)(2.38m/s-0m/s)=2.38kg\frac{m}{s}$

The impulse is 2.38 kgm/s

(c) The force on the cord after the impact is equal to the centripetal force over the block and bullet. That is:

$T=F_c=(M+m)\frac{v^2}{l}=(1.006kg)\frac{(2.38m/s)^2}{2.2m}=2.59N$

The force on the cord after the impact is 2.59N
