As mass increases what happens to the kinetic energy

1 answer:

5 0

As mass increases kinetic energy also increases; kinetic energy is directly proportional to mass so whatever is done to either affects the other one the same. i hope this helps :)

A student lifts a physical science book off the table and above their head. Is there work being done?

DiKsa [7]

Answer: A force must cause a displacement in order for work to be done. A book falls off a table and free falls to the ground. Yes. This is an example of work.

trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

The centripetal acceleration of the child at the bottom of the swing is 15.04 m/s².

Explanation:

The centripetal acceleration is given by:

$a_{c} = \frac{v^{2}}{r}$

Where:

$v^{2}$ : is the tangential speed = 9.50 m/s

r: is the distance = 6.00 m

Hence, the centripetal acceleration is:

$a_{c} = \frac{v^{2}}{r} = \frac{(9.50 m/s)^{2}}{6.00 m} = 15.04 m/s^{2}$

Therefore, the centripetal acceleration of the child at the bottom of the swing is 15.04 m/s².

I hope it helps you!

Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

5.7141 m

Explanation:

Here the potential and kinetic energy will balance each other

$mgh=\frac{1}{2}mv^2\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2gh}$

This is the initial velocity of the system and the final velocity is 0

t = Time taken = 0.04 seconds

F = Force = 18000 N

a = Acceleration

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Equation of motion

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v-u}{t}$

From Newton's second law

$F=ma\\\Rightarrow F=m\frac{v-u}{t}\\\Rightarrow 18000=68\frac{0-\sqrt{2gh}}{0.04}\\\Rightarrow \frac{18000}{68}\times 0.04=-\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times h}\\\Rightarrow 10.58823=-\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times h}$

Squarring both sides

$112.11061=2\times 9.81\times h\\\Rightarrow h=\frac{112.11061}{2\times 9.81}\\\Rightarrow h=5.7141\ m$

The height from which the student fell is 5.7141 m

(a) The electric potential due to a point charge is given by V = kq⁄r where q is the charge, r is the distance from q and k = 8.

LiRa [457]

Answer:

a) [volts] = [N m / C],

b) The lines or surface that has the same potential are called equipotential

c) the equipotential lines must also be perpendicular to the electric field lines

Explanation:

a) find the units of the volt

the electric potential energy is

V = k q / r

V = [N m² / C²] C / m

V = [N m / C]

The electric potential is defined as

V = E .s

V = [N / C] [m]

V = [N m / C] = [volt]

we see that in the two expressions the same result is obtained therefore the volt is

[volts] = [N m / C]

b) The lines or surface that has the same potential are called equipotential surfaces, the great utility of these lines or surfaces is that a face can be displaced on it without doing work.

c) The electric potential is defined as the gradient of the electric field

v = $- \frac{dE}{dx} i^$

therefore the equipotential lines must also be perpendicular to the electric field lines
