A 0.145 kg baseball is thrown horizontally at 15 m/s from a platform, so that it starts at 5.2 m above the ground. How much has

its kinetic energy increased when it reaches the ground? 16 J , 24 J , 0 J , or 7.4 J ? :/

7.4J
final kinetic energy
= initial potential energy
= mass x gravitational force x height
= 0.145 x 9.81 x 5.2
= 7.39674 J

Is there a "real" simple machine that has an efficiency of 100%?

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

NO

Explanation:

No, a machine cannot be 100% efficient. This is due to the movement of the moving parts siding against each other and causing friction. This friction is the one that creates heat and causes wear and tear between moving ports f the machine hence making the machine to decrease in efficiency with time

What are the steps to find the mass of 30 mL of water<br> ...?

tatuchka [14]

The steps in order to calculate the mass of a given volume of water is to use density. <span>Density is a physical property of a substance that represents the mass of that substance per unit volume. It is a property that can be used to describe a substance. Density slightly varies with changes in temperature so that it is important to determine the temperature.</span>

Suppose a yo-yo has a center shaft that has a 0.230 cm radius and that its string is being pulled.

Fofino [41]

Answer:

Part a)

$\alpha = 782.6 rad/s^2$

Part B)

$\omega = 587 rad/s$

Part c)

$a_t = 24.3 m/s^2$

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that

$a = R \alpha$

so we will have

$a = 1.80 m/s^2$

$R = 0.230 cm$

$\alpha = \frac{a}{R}$

$\alpha = \frac{1.80}{0.230 \times 10^{-2}}$

$\alpha = 782.6 rad/s^2$

Part B)

Angular speed of the yo-yo

$\omega = \alpha t$

so we have

$\omega = 782.6 \times 0.750$

$\omega = 587 rad/s$

Part c)

Tangential acceleration is given as

$a_t = R \alpha$

$a_t = (3.10 \times 10^{-2})(782.6)$

$a_t = 24.3 m/s^2$
