Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed²).

A Physicist in the canoe, or on a raft floating downriver next to the canoe, will say that the canoe's kinetic energy is zero.

A Physicist on the riverbank, watching the canoe drift by at 1 m/s, will say that its kinetic energy is 9 Joules.

They're both correct.

Greeley [361]

Answer:

A free body diagram with 2 forces: the first pointing downward labeled F Subscript g Baseline 20 N and the second pointing upward labeled F Subscript air Baseline 20 N.

Explanation:

This is because at terminal velocity, the ball stops accelerating and the net force on the ball is zero. For the net force to be zero, equal and opposite forces must act on the ball, so that their resultant force is zero. That is F₁ + F₂ = 0 ⇒ F₁ = -F₂

Since F₁ = 20 N, then F₂ = -F₁ = -20 N

So, if F₁ points upwards since it is positive, then F₂ points downwards since it is negative.

So, a free body diagram with 2 forces: the first pointing downward labeled F Subscript g Baseline 20 N and the second pointing upward labeled F Subscript air Baseline 20 N best describes the ball falling at terminal velocity.

astra-53 [7]

When the magnets are released and begin to move, the magnetic force changes potential energy into kinetic energy;<u> option D</u>

<h3>What is magnetic force?</h3>

Magnetic force can be defined as the force of attraction or repulsion that is felt or produced between the magnetic poles and electrically charged moving particles.

Magnetic force is the force that exists due to the attractio or repulsion of objects place around the region of space where a maget exerts its force.

When a magnet is released ai a system of magnets and allowed to move it increases the kinetic eergy of the system by converting potential energy to kinetic energy.

Suppose a wheel with a tire mounted on it is rotating at the constant rate of 2.23 2.23 times a second. A tack is stuck in the t
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

       Angular velocity (\omega) = 2.23 rps

     Distance from the center (R) = 0.379 m

First, we will convert revolutions per second into radian per second as follows.

             = 2.23 revolutions per second

             = 2.23 \times 2 \times 3.14 rad/s

             = 14.01 rad/s

Now, tangential speed will be calculated as follows.

  Tangential speed, v = R \times \omega

                               = 0.379 x 14.01

                               = 5.31 m/s

Thus, we can conclude that the tack's tangential speed is 5.31 m/s.
