The cheetah is one of the fastest-accelerating animals, because it can go from rest to 16.2 m/s (about 36 mi/h) in 2.4 s. If its

mass is 102 kg, determine the average power developed by the cheetah during the acceleration phase of its motion. Express your answer in the following units.

<h2>Power of cheetah is 5576.85 W = 7.48 hp</h2>

Explanation:

Power is the ratio of energy to time.

Here we need to consider kinetic energy,

Mass, m = 102 kg

Initial velocity = 0 m/s

Final velocity = 16.2 m/s

Time, t = 2.4 s

Initial kinetic energy = 0.5 x Mass x Initial velocity² = 0.5 x 102 x 0² = 0 J

Final kinetic energy = 0.5 x Mass x Final velocity² = 0.5 x 102 x 16.2² = 13384.44 J

Change in energy = Final kinetic energy - Initial kinetic energy

Change in energy = 13384.44 - 0

Change in energy = 13384.44 J

Power = 13384.44  ÷ 2.4 = 5576.85 W = 7.48 hp

Power of cheetah is 5576.85 W = 7.48 hp

Suppose your local apparent solar time is 11 am, and you have a clock that says it is noon in Greenwich. What is your longitude
jeyben [28]

The longitude based on the time difference is 15 degrees.

<h3>Longitude of complete rotation of the Earth</h3>

The longitude of a complete rotation of the earth in a 24 hours is calculated  as follows;

= \frac{360^0}{24} = 15^0 \ of \ longitude

<h3>Time difference</h3>

The time difference between the local apparent solar time and the Greenwich time is calculated as follows;

t = 12 pm \ - \ 11 am\\\\t = 1 \ hour

Since it is one hour time difference, the longitude is 15 degrees.

At what point in its motion is the KE of a pendulum bob a maximum? 1. The KE does not change. 2. at the lowest point 3. at the h
Andrew [12]

Answer:

2. at the lowest point

Explanation:

The motion of the pendulum is a continuous conversion between kinetic energy (KE) and gravitational potential energy (GPE). This is because the mechanical energy of the pendulum, which is sum of KE and GPE, is constant:

E = KE + GPE = const.

Therefore, when KE is maximum, GPE is minimum, and viceversa.

So, the point of the motion where the KE is maximum is where the GPE is minimum: and since the GPE is directly proportional to the heigth of the bob:

GPE=mgh

we see that GPE is minimum when the bob is at the lowest point,so the correct answer is

2. at the lowest point

Laskar, J.: 1990, The chaotic motion of the solar system. A numerical estimate of the size of the chaotic zones, Icarus, 88, 266
balandron [24]

The chaotic nature of the Solar System excluding Pluto was established by the numerical computation of the maximum Lyapunov exponent of its secular system over 200 myr.

<h3>What is chaotic motion of the solar system ?</h3>

There has been an increase in awareness of chaotic dynamics in the solar system over the past 20 years. The orbits of tiny objects in the solar system, such as asteroids, comets, and interplanetary dust, are now known to be chaotic and to experience significant variations across geological time periods.

  • a completely unpredictable orbit, or one where significant changes in the orbit can result from even small changes in the position and/or velocity of the orbiting entity.
