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

3) A lead bullet initially at 30 C just melts upon striking a target. Assuming that all of the initial kinetic energy of the bul

xeze [42]

Answer:

The speed of bullet is 354.2 m/s

Explanation:

initial temperature, T = 30 degree C

specific heat, c = 128 J/kg K

Latent heat, L = 24.7 x 1000 J/kg

melting point = 600 K = 327 degree C

Let the mass is m and the speed is v.

Kinetic energy = heat used to increase the temperature + Heat used to melt

$\frac{1}{2} mv^2 = m c (T' - T) + m L\\\\0.5 v^2 = 128 \times (327 - 30) + 24.7\times 1000\\\\0.5 v^2 = 38016 + 24700 \\\\0.5 v^2 = 62716\\\\v = 354.2 m/s$

Calculate the height of a column of carbon tetrachloride, CCl4(l), with a density of 1.59 g/mL that exerts the same pressure as

julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

1.30 m

Explanation:

The pressure (P) exerted by a column of a liquid can be calculated with the following expression:

$P=\rho \times g \times h$

where,

ρ is the density of the liquid

g is the gravity

h is the height of the column

If both liquids exert the same pressure:

$PHg = PCCl_{4}\\\rho Hg \times g \times hHg = \rho CCl_{4} \times g \times hCCl_{4}\\\rho Hg \times hHg = \rho CCl_{4} \times hCCl_{4}\\hCCl_{4 = \frac{\rho Hg \times hHg}{\rho CCl_{4}} =\frac{13.6g/mL \times 15.2cm}{1.59g/mL} = 130cm=1.30m$
