Answer: 40 Joules

Explanation: Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of its motion.

Kinetic energy depends on the mass and speed of the object.

K.E=\frac{1}{2}\times mv^2

m= mass of canoe = 20 kg

v= speed of canoe = 2 m/s

K.E=\frac{1}{2}\times 20kg\times (2m/s)^2

K.E=40kgm^2s^-{2}=40Joules

(1kgm^2s^{-2}= 1Joule)

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

(a): The car's relative position to the base of the cliff is x= 32.52m.

(b): The lenght of the car in the ir is tfall= 1.78 sec.

Explanation:

Vo= 0

V= ?

d= 50m

h= 30m

a= 4 m/s²

t= √(2*d/a)

t= 5 sec

V= a*t

V= 20 m/s

Vx= V * cos(24º)

Vx= 18.27 m/s

Vy= V* sin(24º)

Vy= 8.13 m/s

h= Vy*t + g*t²/2

clearing t:

tfall= 1.78 sec (b)

x= Vx * tfall

x= 32.52 m (a)

Calculate (a) the torque, (b) the energy, and (c) the average power required to accelerate Earth in 4.0 days from rest to its pr
natima [27]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

Torque = <em>2.05 x 10²⁸ Nm</em>

Energy = <em>3.54 x 10³³ J</em>

Average power = <em>1.02 x 10²⁸ W</em>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

(a) Torque (τ) is the rotational effect of a given force.  

It is given by

τ = I x α          -------------(i)

Where;

I = rotational inertia of the object

α = angular acceleration of the object.

In this case, the object is the Earth. Therefore,

I = 9.71 x 10³⁷ kg m²

α = ω / t

Where;

ω = angular velocity of earth = 2π rad / day

<em>Since </em>

<em>1 day = 24 hours and 1 hour = 3600seconds</em>

<em>1 day = 24 x 3600 seconds = 86400seconds</em>

<em>=> ω = 2π rad / 86400seconds</em>

<em>=> ω = 7.29 × 10⁻⁵ rad/s</em>

<em />

t = 4 days = 4 x 24 x 3600 seconds = 345600 seconds

=> α = ω / t

=> α = 7.29 × 10⁻⁵ / 345600

=> α = (7.29 × 10⁻⁵) / (3.456 x 10⁵)

=> α = (7.29 × 10⁻⁵⁻⁵) / (3.456)

=> α = (7.29 × 10⁻¹⁰) / (3.456)

=> α = 2.11 × 10⁻¹⁰ rad/s²

Now substitute the values of I and α into equation (i)

τ = 9.71 x 10³⁷ x 2.11 × 10⁻¹⁰

τ = 9.71 x 10²⁷ x 2.11

τ = 20.5 x 10²⁷ Nm

τ = 2.05 x 10²⁸ Nm

(ii) The energy (rotational energy) E is given by;

E = \frac{1}{2} x I x ω

E = \frac{1}{2} x 9.71 x 10³⁷ x 7.29 × 10⁻⁵

E = 35.4 x 10³² J

E = 3.54 x 10³³ J

(iii) The average power P, is given by;

P = E / t

P = 3.54 x 10³³ / 345600

P = 1.02 x 10²⁸ W

How are acceleration and speed related​
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. Usually, acceleration means the speed is changing, but not always. When an object moves in a circular path at a constant speed, it is still accelerating, because the direction of its velocity is changing. Comment on robshowsides's post “Speed is the magnitude of velocity.
