Answer:

3,544.375Joules

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of its motion, It is expressed as;

Kinetic energy = 1/2mv²

m is the mass of the body

v is the velocity

For the ball carrier;

KE = 1/2(75)(6.5)²

KE = 3168.75/2

KE = 1584.375Joules

For the defender;

KE = 1/2(80)(7)²

KE = 3920/2

KE = 1960Joules

The kinetic energy of the ball carrier/defender system BEFORE the tackle = KE for the carrier + KE for the defender

kinetic energy of the ball carrier/defender system BEFORE the tackle= 1584.375+1960 = 3,544.375Joules

A long wave with a period of about 15 minutes will travel across the oceans at a speed of approximately _______.
Temka [501]

The speed of the wave  is mathematically given as

v=2266.66m/s

A long wave with a period of about 15 minutes will travel across the oceans at a speed of approximately v=2266.66m/s

<h3>Speed of the wave</h3>

Question Parameters:

A long wave with a period of about 15 minutes

Generally the equation for the Wave velocity  is mathematically given as

v=\lambda * frequency

Where

f=1/t

Therefore

v=\lambda * frequency

v=\lambda * 1/t

Therefore, with wavelenght of the ocean as 34km

v=34*1000*1/15

v=2266.66m/s

11)A 1100 kg car travels on a straight highway with a speed of 30 m/s. The driver sees a red light ahead and applies her
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

Time taken = 8.25 second

Explanation:

Given:

Force = 4000 N

Force = ma

4,000 = (1100)(a)

Acceleration = 3.6363 m/s²

v = u + at

0 = 30 + (3.6363)t

Time taken = 8.25 second

In 2005 astronomers announced the discovery of a large black hole in the galaxy Markarian 766 having clumps of matter orbiting a
IRISSAK [1]

A. 4.64\cdot 10^{11}m

The orbital speed of the clumps of matter around the black hole is equal to the ratio between the circumference of the orbit and the period of revolution:

v=\frac{2\pi r}{T}

where we have:

v=30,000 km/s = 3\cdot 10^7 m/s is the orbital speed

r is the orbital radius

T=27 h \cdot 3600 =97,200 s is the orbital period

Solving for r, we find the distance of the clumps of matter from the centre of the black hole:

r=\frac{vT}{2\pi}=\frac{(3\cdot 10^7 m/s)(97200 s)}{2\pi}=4.64\cdot 10^{11}m

B. 6.26\cdot 10^{36}kg, 3.13\cdot 10^6 M_s

The gravitational force between the black hole and the clumps of matter provides the centripetal force that keeps the matter in circular motion:

m\frac{v^2}{r}=\frac{GMm}{r^2}

where

m is the mass of the clumps of matter

G is the gravitational constant

M is the mass of the black hole

Solving the formula for M, we find the mass of the black hole:

M=\frac{v^2 r}{G}=\frac{(3\cdot 10^7 m/s)^2(4.64\cdot 10^{11} m)}{6.67\cdot 10^{-11}}=6.26\cdot 10^{36}kg

and considering the value of the solar mass

M_s = 2\cdot 10^{30}kg

the mass of the black hole as a multiple of our sun's mass is

M=\frac{6.26\cdot 10^{36} kg}{2\cdot 10^{30} kg}=3.13\cdot 10^6 M_s

C. 9.28\cdot 10^9 m

The radius of the event horizon is equal to the Schwarzschild radius of the black hole, which is given by

R=\frac{2MG}{c^2}

where M is the mass of the black hole and c is the speed of light.

Substituting numbers into the formula, we find

R=\frac{6.26\cdot 10^{36} kg)(6.67\cdot 10^{-11})}{(3\cdot 10^8 m/s)^2}=9.28\cdot 10^9 m

A car has a kinetic energy of 41.6 kJ.
musickatia [10]
K=1/2 mv2

M=?

41.6kj convert to joules by multiplying by 1000 so it will be 41,600J because the unit of kinetic energy is in joules.

41,600=1/2(m)(8)

Arrange the equation it will be:

M= 41,600/4 = 10,400

Final answer is:
m= 10,400 kg
