The kinetic energy of the object just after it starts its motion from the Earth surface is
K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2
where m is the object mass and v=3.7 km/s=3700 m/s its initial speed.
When it reaches its maximum height, the object speed is zero and all its kinetic energy converted into gravitational potential energy, which is
U=mgh
where g=9.81 m/s^2 and h is the maximum height reached by the object.

Since the energy of the object must be conserved, K=U, therefore we can write
\frac{1}{2}mv^2 =mgh
and we can solve to find h, the maximum height:
h= \frac{v^2}{2g}= \frac{(3700 m/s)^2}{2\cdot 9.81 m/s^2}=  6.98 \cdot 10^5 m=698 km

Since sound is a mechanical wave it needs a ...... to travel through
Leni [432]

Answer:

medium

Examples:

A medium is a thing that the sound wave would travel through, like sound waves traveling through air. A mechanical wave cannot travel without a medium, like if the wave were trying to travel through a vacuum.

You are standing on a sheet of ice that covers the football stadium parking lot in Buffalo; there is negligible friction between
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

a) v = 0.0496 m / s , b)  v = 0.0957 m / s

Explanation:

a) in this case we have an inelastic collision,

To solve these problems, the most important thing is to define the system formed by all the bodies, so that the forces during the crash have been internal and the amount of movement is conserved.

Therefore the system is made up of the ball and the player

initial instant. Before catching the ball

       p₀ = m v₁

final moment. After you have grabbed the ball

      p_{f} = (m + M) v

the moment is preserved

       po = p_{f}

       m v₁ = (m + M) v

       v = m / (m + M) v₁

let's calculate

      v = 0.405 / (0.405 + 69)   8.50

      v = 0.0496 m / s

in the same direction that the ball takes

b) In this case the ball bounces with a speed of V₂ = -7.80 m / s, the negative sign is because it is going in opposite directions

let's write the moment in two times

initial instant. Before the crash

       p₀ = m v₁

try end. Right after the crash

       p_{f} = m v₂ + M v

the moment is preserved

       p₀ = p_{f}

        m v₁ = m v₂ + M v

       v = m (v₁ -v₂) / M

       v = 0.405 /69   (8.50 - (7.80))

       v = 0.0957 m / s

in the initial direction of the ball

Many kinds of analysis in the physical sciences are helped by identifying quantities that are constant. It is usual to begin by
AysviL [449]

Answer:

  • As, there are different physical quantities which are required to be measured in a more proper way to define the circuits properties.
  1. As, there is current,I which is the more directed flow of electrons inside the circuit.
  2. Along, with which the voltage,V or in other words the potential difference inside the circuit is also taken under consideration.
  3. And most importantly the resistance's,R value inside the circuit defines the parameters inside the circuit.
  4. All of these values are then determined or analyzed with the help of the digital multi-meter or simply the DMM.

What velocity must a 1210 kg car have in order to have the same momentum as the pickup truck in the sample problem
harina [27]

Answer:

P=mv 2250*25=56250

Explanation:

p of truck =2250*25 =56250

since p of truck = p of car

then p of car = 56250

therefore p of car = 1210 * v

or, 56520=1210v

or,v= 56520/1210=46.48

so, v of car is 46.48m/s

A kilogram is a unit of mass and when multiplied by meters per second
amm1812

Answer:

it yields a derived unit known as Newton, which is the unit of Force.

Explanation:

The formula for force is given by Newton's Second Law, which states that whenever an unbalanced force is applied to a body, it produces an acceleration in the body in the direction of force.

F = ma\\

where, F = Force

m = mass

a = acceleration

Now, we substitute the respective S.I units of each quantity in equation:

F = Newton (N)

m = kilogram (kg)

a = acceleration = m/s²

Therefore,

N = (kg)(m/s^2)

So, it is clear from above expression that:

<u>When kilogram is multiplied by meter per second squared, it yields a derived unit known as Newton, which is the unit of Force.</u>
