Read through the scenarios below and calculate the predicted change in kinetic energy of the object compared to a 100 kg ball tr

aveling at 5 m/s. A 1,000 kg ball traveling at 5 m/s would have kinetic energy. A 10 kg ball traveling at 5 m/s would have kinetic energy. A 100 kg person falling at 5 m/s would have kinetic energy.

Okay, first off, the formula for Kinetic Energy is:

<em>KE = 1/2(m)(v)^2</em>

<em>m = mass</em>

<em>v = velcoity (m/s)</em>


Using this formula, we can then calculate the kinetic energy in each scenario:

1) KE = 1/2(100)(5)^2 = 1,250 J

2) KE = 1/2(1000)(5)^2 = 12,500 J

3) KE = 1/2(10)(5)^2 = 125 J

4) KE = 1/2(100)(5)^2 = 1,250 J

Answer:

A 1,000 kg ball traveling at 5 m/s would have <u>10 times more</u> kinetic energy.

A 10 kg ball traveling at 5 m/s would have <u>10 times less</u> kinetic energy.

A 100 kg person falling at 5 m/s would <u>have the same</u> kinetic energy.

Answer:

1. The best definition of refraction is ____.

a. passing through a boundary

b. bouncing off a boundary

c. changing speed at a boundary

d. changing direction when crossing a boundary

 

Answer: D

Bouncing off a boundary (choice b) is reflection. Refraction involves passing through a boundary (choice a) and changing speed (choice c); however, a light ray can exhibit both of these behaviors without undergoing refraction (for instance, if it approaches the boundary along the normal). Refraction of light must involve a change in direction; the path must be altered at the boundary.

An object of mass m travels along the parabola yequalsx squared with a constant speed of 5 ​units/sec. What is the force on the
Dmitriy789 [7]

Explanation:

The object is moving along the parabola y = x² and is at the point (√2, 2).  Because the object is changing directions, it has a centripetal acceleration towards the center of the circle of curvature.

First, we need to find the radius of curvature.  This is given by the equation:

R = [1 + (y')²]^(³/₂) / |y"|

y' = 2x and y" = 2:

R = [1 + (2x)²]^(³/₂) / |2|

R = (1 + 4x²)^(³/₂) / 2

At x = √2:

R = (1 + 4(√2)²)^(³/₂) / 2

R = (9)^(³/₂) / 2

R = 27 / 2

R = 13.5

So the centripetal force is:

F = m v² / r

F = m (5)² / 13.5

F = 1.85 m

A seesaw is an example of a first class lever, true or false?
kramer
My guess is false because a seesaw goes up and down on both sides, while a lever is when u pick something up and down.

sorry if I'm wrong but I hope it helps :)
