So simply it to 120m/m for 120 minutes. So then you multiply 120x120 and that equals 14,400

The kinetic energy of a moving object is E=12mv2. A 61 kg runner is moving at 10kmh. However, her speedometer is only accurate t

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

$e=3367.2J$

% $e=1.43$ %

Explanation:

From the exercise we know two information. The real speed and the experimental measured by the speedometer

$v_{r}=10km/h=2.77m/s$

Since the speedometer is only accurate to within 0.1km/h the experimental speed is

$v_{e}=10km/h-0.1km/h=9.9km/h=2.75m/s$

Knowing that we can calculate Kinetic energy for the real and experimental speed

$E_{r}=\frac{1}{2}mv^2=\frac{1}{2}(61000g)(2.77m/s)^2=234023J$

$E_{e}=\frac{1}{2}mv^2=\frac{1}{2}(61000g)(2.75m/s)^2=230656J$

Now, the potential error in her calculated kinetic energy is:

$e=E_{r}-E_{e}=(234023-230656)J=3367.2J$

% $e=\frac{E_{r}-E_{e}}{E_{r}}x100=\frac{(234023-230656)J}{234023J}x100=1.43$ %

A frictionless pulley used to lift 8000N of concrete. What is the minimum effort required to raise the block

rusak2 [61]

Answer: 8000N

Explanation: since it is frictionless that means it has 100% efficiency therefore the mechanical advantage is 1 meaning the load equals to the effort

Water is drawn from a well in a bucket tied to the end of a rope whose other end wraps around a solid cylinder of mass 50 kg and

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

$\alpha=78.4\ rad.s^{-2}$

Explanation:

Given:

mass of solid cylinder, $m=50\ kg$

diameter of cylinder, $d=0.25\ m$

mass of bucket of water, $m_w=20\ kg$

When the bucket is released to fall in the well, it fall under the acceleration due to gravity.

We have formula for angular acceleration as:

$\alpha=\frac{g}{r}$

where:

g = acceleration due to gravity

r = radius of the cylinder

$\aplha=\frac{9.8}{0.125}$

$\alpha=78.4\ rad.s^{-2}$

All of the following show friction as a useful force, except _____.

prohojiy [21]

Answer: having to push a rough and heavy box across the floor to move it

Explanation:

The Friction force is any force that is in opposite direction of the motion of an object or fluid due to the contact of this object or fluid with other bodies.

In this sense, there are different types of friction force thath are useful in different situations:

-The Static friction force prevents surfaces from slipping across each other. For example, the friction between your feet and the floor keeping you from slipping.

-The kinetic friction force as the force that helps the tires in a moving vehicle to slow down and stop when necessary.

However, if you want to push a heavy box across the floor to move it, the friction force will not be useful at all.

A person is standing on and facing the front of a stationary skateboard while holding a construction brick. The mass of the pers

Inessa [10]

Answer:

v₁ = -0.8087 m / s

Explanation:

To solve this problem we can use the conservation of momentum, for this we define a system formed by the man, the skateboard and the brick, therefore the force during the separation is internal and the momentum is conserved

Initial instant. When they are united

p₀ = 0

Final moment. After throwing the brick

$p_{f}$ = (m_man + m_skate) v1 + m_brick v2

the moment is preserved

p₀ = p_{f}

0 = (m_man + m_skate) v₁ + m_brick v₂

v₁ = - $\frac{ m_{brick} }{m_{man} + m_{skate} } v_{2}$

the negative sign indicates that the two speeds are in the opposite direction

let's calculate

v₁ = - $\frac{2.5}{67 + 4.10} 23.0$

v₁ = -0.8087 m / s
