Why does an object’s mass and speed cause it to have kinetic energy?

Physics
1 answer:
BabaBlast [244]3 years ago

The formula for kinetic energy is ... 

K = (.5)(M)(V^2) 

As you can see, mass and speed are in the equation, so it means it directly impacts the magnitude of kinetic energy. Also kinetic energy is energy in motion. If it's moving, it has kinetic energy.

An object is hanging by a string from the ceiling of an elevator. The elevator is moving upward with a constant speed. What is t
xeze [42]

Answer:

The magnitude of the tension in he string is equal to the magnitude of the weight of the object.

Explanation:

According to the Newton's 1st law, An object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.

In here, the elevator is moving with a constant speed. So the object must have the equal constant speed. Which means, it has a uniform motion. According to Newton's 1st law, the total unbalanced force on the object must be zero . As we know, there are only two forces are on the object and they are,

The tension in string(T)   ,   The weight of the object(W) .

                                  ∴ F    =   0

                                 T  -  W  =   0

So to balanced those forces, the magnitude of the tension in the string must be equal to the magnitude of the weight of  the object.

a cart's initial velocity is +3.0 meters per second. What is its final velocity after accelerating at a rate of 1.5m/s2 for 8.0
Andreas93 [3]

The final velocity is +15.0 m/s

Explanation:

The motion of the cart is a uniformly accelerated motion (=at constant acceleration), therefore we can use the following suvat equation:

v=u+at

where

v is the velocity at time t

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the time

For the cart in this problem, we have:

u = +3.0 m/s (initial velocity)

a=1.5 m/s^2 (acceleration)

t = 8.0 s (time)

Substituting, we find the final velocity:

v=3.0+(1.5)(8.0)=+15.0 m/s

A lamp is 10% efficient.How much electrical energy must be supplied to the lamp each second if it produces 20 J of light energy
k0ka [10]

If it produces 20J of light energy in a second, then that 20J is the 10% of the supply that becomes useful output.

20 J/s = 10% of Supply

20 J/s = (0.1) x (Supply)

Divide each side by 0.1:

Supply = (20 J/s) / (0.1)

<em>Supply = 200 J/s  </em>(200 watts)

========================

Here's something to think about:  What could you do to make the lamp more efficient ?  Answer:  Use it for a heater !

If you use it for a heater, then the HEAT is the 'useful' part, and the light is the part that you really don't care about.  Suddenly ... bada-boom ... the lamp is 90% efficient !
