Answer:

E = 27 J

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of a kitten is 1.5 kg

Initially, it was at a height of 1.8 m refrigerator and finally jumps to a 0.9 m height counter.

We need to find the kitten's gravitational  potential energy on top of the counter. Potential energy is possessed due to the position of an object. It can be given by :

E=mgh

g is acceleration due to gravity

E=1.5\ kg\times 10\ m/s^2\times 1.8\ m\\E=27\ J

So, the kitten's gravitational  potential energy on top of the counter is 27 J.

Explanation:

Centripetal Force is the force that keeps the object's rotation in a circular path and it's always directed towards the center of rotation. Mathematically, it is given as,

F_{c} = \frac{mv^{2} }{r}

From this equation it can be concluded that the centripetal force is proportional to the product of mass and the square of velocity. It is inversely proportional to the object's distance from the center.

Now in the above mentioned case, when the cylinder begins spinning very rapidly and it's speed becomes double. Then by applying the above equation we conclude that " the force will be increased four times if the speed is doubled as it is proportional to square of speed."

Why are weight and mass used synonymously on earth?
Lisa [10]
Weight and mass are used synonymously on earth because the value of g is constant on the earth because the weight of a body is the amount of force exerted by the Earths gravity on an object of finite mass. And, the mass of an object gives the amount of matter in the body and is measured in kilograms.

How far does a 1,300-kg race car travel if it accelerates from rest at a rate of 14 m/s/s for 10
muminat

Answer:

700 m

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 14 m/s²

t = 10 s

Find: Δx

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = (0 m/s) (10 s) + ½ (14 m/s²) (10 s)²

Δx = 700 m

VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

3: I can´t see the text/image, but it depend on the mass and the force applied to the ball, if both are too high, it will be harder to make a home run. (Second law)

4:It would be easier to make a home run because there is no interruption between the ball and the space the same travels. (Third law)
