What is the definition of a point object?

Physics
1 answer:
Kaylis [27]4 years ago
4 0
Point object is an expression that is used in Kinematics. It refers the object whose dimensions are ignored or neglected and is treated as a dot object to simplify the calculations. When the object is treated as a point object it means the whole mass is summed in one point, you can imagine it as a sphere which has the mass and the radius is 0...

A hockey puck with a mass of 0.175 kg slides over the ice. The puck initially slides with a speed of 5.25 m/s, but it comes to a
Neko [114]

Answer:

1.70 J

Explanation:

The heat dissipated is the difference in the kinetic energies.

This is given by

E = \frac{1}{2}mv_f^2 - \frac{1}{2}mv_i^2

v_i and v_f are the initial and final velocities.

With <em>m</em> = 0.175 kg,

E = \frac{1}{2}\times0.175(2.85^2 - 5.25^2) = -1.701\text{ J}

The negative sign appears because energy is lost.

Why does the sky appears blue? ​
SashulF [63]

Explanation:

Sky appears blue because of Scattering.Blue light is scattered in all directions by the tiny molecules of air in Earth's atmosphere. Blue is scattered more than other colors because it travels as shorter, smaller waves. This is why we see a blue sky most of the time.

3. If a pipe with flowing water has a cross-sectional area nine times greater at point 2 than at point 1, what would be the rela
shusha [124]

Answer:

The velocity of the flow at point 1 is nine times greater than the velocity at point 2.

Explanation:

We know that the same volume of water entering through point 1 must exit through point 2.

The volume of water per unit of time or the volumetric flow is defined by:

V_{flow}=v*A\\ where:\\V_{flow}= flow [m^3/s]\\v=velocity[m/s]\\A=area [m^2]

If  A_{2}=9*A_{1}  \\

therefore

v_{1} *A_{1} = v_{2} *A_{2} \\v_{1} *A_{1} = v_{2} *9A_{1} \\\\v_{1} = 9v_{2}  \\
