How much kinetic energy does an 80 kg man have while running at 3 m/s?

Physics

Soloha48 [4]2 years ago
7 0

Hello!

\large\boxed{KE = 360 J}

Use the equation KE = 1/2mv² to solve for the kinetic energy of the man.

We are given the mass and velocity, so plug these values into the equation:

KE = 1/2(80)(3²)

KE = 1/2(720)

KE = 360 J

A 25.0 g marble sliding to the right at 20.0 cm/s overtakes and collides elastically with a 10.0 g marble moving in the same dir
ikadub [295]
In collision that are categorized as elastic, the total kinetic energy of the system is preserved such that,

   KE1  = KE2

The kinetic energy of the system before the collision is solved below.

  KE1 = (0.5)(25)(20)² + (0.5)(10g)(15)²
  KE1 = 6125 g cm²/s²

This value should also be equal to KE2, which can be calculated using the conditions after the collision.

KE2 = 6125 g cm²/s² = (0.5)(10)(22.1)² + (0.5)(25)(x²)

The value of x from the equation is 17.16 cm/s.

Hence, the answer is 17.16 cm/s.

If the range of a projectile's trajectory is six times larger than the height of the trajectory, then what was the angle of laun
zvonat [6]

Answer:

H = 1/2 g t^2    where t is time to fall a height H

H = 1/8 g T^2   where T is total time in air  (2 t  = T)

R = V T cos θ       horizontal range

3/4 g T^2 = V T cos θ       6 H = R    given in problem

cos θ = 3 g T / (4 V)           (I)

Now t = V sin θ / g     time for projectile to fall from max height

T = 2 V sin θ / g

T / V = 2 sin θ / g

cos θ = 3 g / 4 (T / V)     from (I)

cos θ = 3 g / 4 * 2 sin V / g = 6 / 4 sin θ

tan θ = 2/3      

θ = 33.7 deg

As a check- let V = 100 m/s

Vx = 100 cos 33.7 = 83,2

Vy = 100 sin 33,7 = 55.5

T = 2 * 55.5 / 9.8 = 11.3 sec

H = 1/2 * 9.8 * (11.3 / 2)^2 = 156

R = 83.2 * 11.3 = 932

R / H = 932 / 156 = 5.97        6 within rounding

A child uses a rubber band to launch a bottle cap at an angle of 37.0° above the horizontal. The cap travels a horizontal distan
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

Initial velocity will be 1.356 m/sec      

Explanation:

Let the initial speed = u

Angle at which rubber band is launched = 37°

Horizontal component of initial velocity u_x=ucos\Theta =ucos37^{\circ}=0.7986u

Time is given as t = 1.20 sec

Distance in horizontal direction = 1.30 m

We know that distance = speed × time

So time t=\frac{distance}{speed}

1.20=\frac{1.3}{0.7986u}

u=1.356m/sec

So initial velocity will be 1.356 m/sec

A water line with an internal radius of 5.29 x 10-3 m is connected to a shower head that has 15 holes. The speed of the water in
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

(a) 3.44 x 10^-3 m^3/s

(b) 8.4 m/s

Explanation:

area of water line, A = 5.29 x 10^-3 m

number of holes, N = 15

Speed of water in line, V = 0.651 m/s

(a) Volume flow rate is given by

V = area of water line x speed of water in water line

V = 5.29 x 10^-3 x 0.651 = 3.44 x 10^-3 m^3/s

(b) area of one hole, a = 4.13 x 10^-4 m

Let v be the velocity of water in each hole

According to the equation of continuity

A x V = a x v

5.29 x 10^-3 x 0.651 = 4.1 x 10^-4 x v

v = 8.4 m/s
