Answer:

a) v = 88.54 m/s

b) vf = 26.4 m/s

Explanation:

Given that;

m = 1400.0 kg

a)

by using the energy conservation

loss in potential energy is equal to gain in kinetic energy

mg × ( 3200-2800) = 1/2 ×m×v²

so

1400 × 9.8 × 400 = 0.5 × 1400 × v²

5488000 = 700v²

v² = 5488000 / 700

v² = 7840

v = √7840

v = 88.54 m/s

b)

Work done by all forces is equal to change in KE

W_gravity + W_non - conservative = 1/2×m×(vf² - vi²)

we substitute

1400 × 9.8 × ( 3200-2800) - (5 × 10⁶) = 1/2 × 1400 × (vf²  -0 )

488000 = 700 vf²

vf² = 488000 / 700

vf² = 697.1428

vf = √697.1428

vf = 26.4 m/s

Where do you think the government should put the greatest support: solar energy, wind energy, clean coal, oil exploration, gas e
True [87]
The government should put it support in a combination of sources, as no source in the present can fully provide all energy requirements.

Julie is cycling at a speed of 3.4 meters/second. If the combined mass of the bicycle and Julie is 30 kilograms, what is the kin
Anon25 [30]
Velocity=3.4m/sec
Mass=30kg
so kinetic energy=1/2mv^2
=1/2×30×3.4×3.4
=15×3.4×3.4
=15×11.56
=173.4 kg m per second square

A steel ball and a piece of clay have equal mass. They are dropped from the same height on a horizontal steel platform. The ball
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer: The ball (option A)

Explanation: change in momentum is defined by the formulae m(v - u) where m = mass of object, v = final velocity and u = initial velocity.

For the ball, it hits the ground and bounces back with the same speed, that's final velocity equals initials (v = - u)

Change in momentum = m( -u- u) = m(-2u) = m(-2u) = -2mu

For the clay, it final velocity is zero since it sticks to the floor, hence (v =0)

m(v - u) = m(0 - u) = - mu.

-2mu (change in momentum from the ball) is greater than - mu ( change in momentum of clay)
