Answer:

  K_b = 78 J

Explanation:

For this exercise we can use the conservation of energy relations

starting point. Lowest of the trajectory

        Em₀ = K = ½ mv²

final point. When it is at tea = 50º

        Em_f = K + U

        Em_f = ½ m v_b² + m g h

where h is the height from the lowest point

        h = L - L cos 50

        Em_f = ½ m v_b² + mg L (1 - cos50)

energy be conserve

        Em₀ = Em_f

         ½ mv² = ½ m v_b² + mg L (1 - cos50)

         K_b = ½ m v_b² + mg L (1 - cos50)

let's calculate

          K_b = ½ 2.0 6.0² + 2.0 9.8 6.0 (1 - cos50)

          K_b = 36 +42.0

          K_b = 78 J

a raft of dimensions 2m wide by 3m long by .5m thick is floating in a pond if one fourth of the raf is submerged find the densit
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

250 kg/m3

Explanation:

The total volume of the raft is length times width times height

V = lwh = 2 * 3 * 0.5 = 3 m cubed

The volume of the raft that is submerged in water is 1/4 of total volume

3 /4 = 0.75 m cubed

Let water density = 1000 kg/m cubed and g = 10 m/s2

The buoyant force is equal to the weight of water displaced by the raft

F = 0.75 * 1000 * 10 = 7500 N

This force is balanced by the raft weight, so the weight of the raft is also 7500N

Mass of raft is 7500 / g = 7500 / 10 = 750 kg

Raft density is mass divided by volume = 750 / 3 = 250 kg/m3

A cat with a mass of 4.50 kilograms sits on a ledge 0.800 meters above the ground. What is the potential energy of the cat? 346
Gennadij [26K]
This is a question about converting energy from one form to another. 

<span>While it is sitting on the ledge, it isn't moving, so at that point it doesn't have any kinetic energy. What it has is gravitational potential energy due to its height above the ground. </span>

<span>Just as it lands, it's at ground level, so it doesn't have any gravitational potential energy anymore. </span>

<span>The reason is that on the way down, it sped up, so all its original gravitational potential energy was turned into kinetic energy. </span>

<span>So if you can work out how much potential energy it had to start with, you will know that that is how much kinetic energy it ended up with just before it landed. </span>

<span>potential energy = m * g * h </span>
<span>where m is the mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity and h is the height </span>

potential energy = 4.45 * 9.81 * 0.800 = 35.3 J

Which waves in the electromagnetic spectrum are considered high energy waves?. . A.radio waves and microwaves. B.X–rays and gam
Sergeu [11.5K]
The answer is B. X-rays and gamma rays. The electromagnetic spectrum consists of all types of electromagnetic radiation. The EM spectrum is arranged from the longest wavelength with the lowest frequency and lowest energy which are the radio waves and microwaves to the shortest wavelength with the highest frequency and highest energy which are the x-rays and gamma rays. Visible light that can be seen by a humans is a small portion in between the ultraviolet and infrared rays.
