Height is 7.05 m and not 7.05 mm

Answer:

9.603 m/s

Explanation:

We are dealing with rotation, so velocity of centre of mass is given by;

v_cm = Rω

Since we are working with a solid cylinder, moment of inertia of the cylinder is; I = ½mR²

Since it is rolled from the top to the bottom, at the top it will have potential energy(mgh) while at the bottom it will have kinetic energy (rotational plus translational kinetic energy).

Using conservation of energy, we have:

P.E = K.E_t + K.E_r

Formula for rotational and kinetic energy here are;

K.E_t = ½mv²

K.E_r = ½Iω²

mgh = ½mv² + ½Iω²

Since we want to find translational speed(v), let's get rid of ω.

Earlier, we saw that v_cm = Rω

Thus; ω = v/R

Also, we know that I = ½mR².

Thus;

mgh = ½mv² + ½(½mR²)(v/R)²

This gives;

mgh = ½mv² + ¼mv²

Divide through by m to get;

gh = v²(½ + ¼)

gh = ¾v²

Making v the subject gives;

v = √(4gh/3)

v = √((4 × 9.81 × 7.05)/3)

v = 9.603 m/s

Suppose you are an astronaut and you have been stationed on a distant planet. You would like to find the acceleration due to the
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

<h3> 1.40625m/s²</h3>

Explanation:

Using the equation of motion expressed as v = u+gt where;

v is the  final velocity of the ball

u is the initial velocity

g is the acceleration due to gravity

t is the time taken

Given

u = 9m/s

v = 0m/s

t = 6.4s

Required

acceleration due to gravity g

Since the rock is thrown up, g will be a negative value.

v = u+(-g)t

0 = 9-6.4g

-9 = -6.4g

6.4g = 9

divide both sides by 6.4

6.4g/6.4 = 9/6.4

g = 1.40625m/s²

Hence the acceleration due to gravity on the planet is  1.40625m/s²

A crane raises a crate with a mass of 150 kg to a height of 20 m. Given that
Virty [35]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 29,400 \ Joules}}

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is the energy an object possesses due to its position. It is the product of mass, height, and acceleration due to gravity.

E_P= m \times g \times h

The object has a mass of 150 kilograms and is raised to a height of 20 meters. Since this is on Earth, the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 meters per square second.

  • m= 150 kg
  • g= 9.8 m/s²
  • h= 20 m

Substitute the values into the formula.

E_p= 150 \ kg \times 9.8 \ m/s^2 \times 20 \ m

Multiply the three numbers and their units together.

E_p=1470 \ kg*m/s^2 \times 20 m

E_p=29400 \ kg*m^2/s^2

Convert the units.

1 kilogram meter square per second squared (1 kg *m²/s²) is equal to 1 Joule (J). Our answer of 29,400 kg*m²/s² is equal to 29,400 Joules.

E_p= 29,400 \ J

The crate has <u>29,400 Joules</u> of potential energy.
