Answer:

V=14,1421 m/s

Explanation:

it's simple.

Velocity increases with the gravity acceleration.

There's a formula called Torricelli's equation, and it is as it follows:

V^2 = Vo^2 +2.a.s

where V is the speed you wish to find

Vo is the initial speed

a is the acceleration, in this case, the gravity's one

s is the space it moved.

So, here we go

Vo=0

a=10 or 9.81 (some schools use 10 to simplify the math)

s=10

So, using g as 10

V^2 = 0 +2.10.10

V^2=200

V=14,1421 m/s

A 20 kg mass is moving at 10 m/s and collides with a stationary 5 kg mass, transferring all its momentum in the collision, what

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

v = 40 [m/s].

Explanation:

Linear momentum is defined as the product of mass by Velocity. In this way, by means of the following equation, we can calculate the momentum.

$P=m*v\\$

where:

m = mass [kg]

v = velocity [m/s]

$P =20*10\\P =200 [kg*m/s]$

Since all momentum is transferred, we can say that this momentum is equal for the mass of 5 [kg]. In this way, we can determine the speed after the impact.

$v = P/m\\v = 200/5\\v = 40 [m/s]$

What is the equation for the potential energy stored in a spring when it is stretched or compressed?

gregori [183]

Answer:

if you stretch a spring with k = 2, with a force of 4N, the extension will be 2m. the work done by us here is 4x2=8J. in other words, the energy transferred to the spring is 8J. but, the stored energy in the spring equals 1/2x2x2^2=4J (which is half of the work done by us in stretching it).

A electric heater that draws 13.5 a of dc current has been left on for 10 min. how many electrons that have passed through the h

kicyunya [14]

By definition, Ampere is a unit of current which is a measure of the amount of charge passing through a point in a circuit per unit of time, with an equivalent charge of 1.602 x 10^(-19) Coulomb per electron. To determine the number of electrons passing through the heater, we use the definition of the current. We calculate as follows:

13.5 A = 13.5 C per second
Charge = 13.5 C/s (10 min) ( 60 s / 1 min)
Charge = 8100 C

Number of electrons = 8100 C / 1.602 x 10^(-19) C per electron
Number of electrons = 5.1 x 10^22 electrons

Therefore, there are 5.1 x10^22 electrons that assed through the heater for 10 minutes.
