Answer:

3 m/s squared

Explanation:

The formula you use is Vf= Vi + at. You rearrange it to a= Vf - Vi/t. The Vf is 27m/s. The Vi is 0m/s and the t is 9s. Cross out Vi since it’s zero and you’re left with a= 27m/s divided by 9s, which equals 3

Question:

exis [7]

Answer:

She can swing 1.0 m high.

Explanation:

Hi there!

The mechanical energy of Jane (ME) can be calculated by adding her gravitational potential (PE) plus her kinetic energy (KE).

The kinetic energy is calculated as follows:

KE = 1/2 · m · v²

And the potential energy:

PE = m · g · h

Where:

m = mass of Jane.

v = velocity.

g = acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s²).

h = height.

Then:

ME = KE + PE

Initially, Jane is running on the surface on which we assume that the gravitational potential energy of Jane is zero (the height is zero). Then:

ME = KE + PE (PE = 0)

ME = KE

ME = 1/2 · m · (4.5 m/s)²

ME = m · 10.125 m²/s²

When Jane reaches the maximum height, its velocity is zero (all the kinetic energy was converted into potential energy). Then, the mechanical energy will be:

ME = KE + PE (KE = 0)

ME = PE

ME = m · 9.8 m/s² · h

Then, equallizing both expressions of ME and solving for h:

m · 10.125 m²/s² = m · 9.8 m/s² · h

10.125 m²/s² / 9.8 m/s² = h

h = 1.0 m

She can swing 1.0 m high (if we neglect dissipative forces such as air resistance).

Kaylis [27]

Answer:

Cp= 0.44 J/g.C

This is heat capacity of metal.

Explanation:

From energy conservation

Heat lost by metal = Heat gain by water +Heat gain by calorimeter

Because here temperature of metal is high that is why it loose the heat.The temperature of water and calorimeter is low that is why they gain the heat.

final temperature is T= 30.5 C

We know that sensible heat transfer given as

Q= m Cp ΔT

m=Mass

Cp=Specific heat capacity

ΔT=Temperature difference

By putting the values

55 x Cp ( 99.5 - 30.5) = 40 x 4.184 ( 30.5- 21 ) + 10 x ( 30.5 - 21)

Cp ( 99 .5- 30.5) = 30.65

Cp= 0.44 J/g.C

This is heat capacity of metal.

TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

vo=5.87m/s

Explanation:

Hello! In this problem we have a uniformly varied rectilinear movement.

Taking into account the data:

α =69.2

vf = 10m / s

h=2.7m

g=9.8m/s2

We know we want to know the speed on the y axis.

We calculate vfy

vfy = 10m / s * (sen69.2) = 9.35m / s

We can use the following equation.

$vf^{2} =vo^{2}+2*g*h\\$

We clear the vo (initial speed)

$vo=\sqrt{vf^{2}-2*g*h }$

$v0=\sqrt{(9.35m/s)^{2}-2*9.8m/s^{2} *2.7m}$

vo=5.87m/s
