Object 2 has more kinetic energy

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of an object is the energy possessed by the object due to its motion, and it is given by

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its speed

In this problem, for object 1:

m = 2 kg

v = 2 m/s

So its kinetic energy is

K_1 = \frac{1}{2}(2)(2)^2=4 J

For object 2,

m = 4 kg

v = 3 m/s

So its kinetic energy is

K_2 = \frac{1}{2}(4)(3)^2=18 J

Therefore, object 2 has more kinetic energy.

a football player kicks a ball with a mass of 0.42kg. The average acceleration of the football was 14.8 m/s2. How much force did
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

6.216 N

Explanation:

As for Newton's second law of motion

F=ma

where F= the acting force

           m=subjected mass

           a= the acceleration

applying F=ma to the football

F=m*a

 =0.42*14.8

 =6.216 N

6.216 N of a force is supplied to the ball

A 1500 kg car, initially traveling at 22.0 m/s, hits its brakes and skids to a stop. Determine the work done by friction.
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

<em>The work done by the car is 363 kJ</em>

Explanation:

Work : Work is said to be done when a Force moves an object through a certain distance. Work and Energy are interchangeable because they have the same unit. The unit of work is Joules (J).

Mathematically work done can be expressed as,

E = W = 1/2mv²

W =  1/2mv²................................ Equation 1

Where E = Energy, W = work done, m = mass of the car, v = velocity of the car

<em>Given: m=1500 kg, v=22 m/s</em>

<em>Substituting these values into equation 1</em>

<em>W = 1/2(1500)(22)²</em>

<em>W = 750 × 484</em>

<em>W = 363000 J</em>

<em>W = 363 kJ</em>

<em>Thus the work done by the car is 363 kJ</em>

Not sure if it went through last time. Please help asap!
Olin [163]
The equation for force is F=ma. Because we have the value of mass (0.42 kg) and the acceleration (14.8 m/s^2), simply plug them into the equation for force to get
0.42 \times 14.8 = 6.22
The answer is 6.22 N because newtons are the unit used to measure force.

According to the law of reflection, the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of
Darina [25.2K]

Before going to answer this question first we have to understand reflection and laws of reflection.

Reflection is the optical phenomenon in which light will bounce back to the same medium from which it had originated .

Whenever a light ray will incident on a mirror or any reflecting surface, it will be reflected. The ray which falls on the reflecting surface is called incident ray and the ray which is reflected is called reflected ray.

Let us consider a normal to the point of incidence.The angle made by incident ray with the normal is called angle of incidence.Let it be denoted as[ i ]

The angle made by the reflected ray with the normal is called angle of incidence.Let it be denoted as [r]

There are two types of reflection.One is called regular and other one is called as irregular.The laws of reflection is valid for both the types of reflection.

There are two laws of reflection.

FIRST LAW -It states that the incident ray,reflected ray and the normal to the point of incidence,all lie in one plane.

SECOND LAW- It states that that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection irrespective of the type of reflection.i.e i =r

Hence the correct answer will be angle of reflection.

If the escalator pulls you up a slope of 30.0o​ ​ and moves with a velocity of 3.10m/s. What is the vertical component of your v
ioda

Answer:

1.55\ \text{m/s}

2.68\ \text{m/s}

Explanation:

v = Velocity of the elevator = 3.1 m/s

\theta = Angle of the slope = 30^{\circ}

Vertical component is given by

v_y=v\sin\theta\\\Rightarrow v_y=3.1\sin30^{\circ}\\\Rightarrow v_y=1.55\ \text{m/s}

The vertical component of the velocity is 1.55\ \text{m/s}.

Horizontal component is given by

v_x=v\cos\theta\\\Rightarrow v_x=3.1\times \cos30^{\circ}\\\Rightarrow v_x=2.68\ \text{m/s}

The horizontal component of the velocity is 2.68\ \text{m/s}.
