Answer:

I think it is 1.16 MJ

Explanation:

PE=mgh

PE=(74)(9.81)(1600)= 1,161,504J = 1.16MJ

Explain the relationship between air resistance and gravitational acceleration on a falling object
Allushta [10]
Air resistance, also called drag, acts upon a falling body by slowing the body down to thr point where it stops accelerating, and it falls at a constant speed, known as the terminal volocity of a falling object. Air resistance depends on the cross sectional area of the object, which is why the effect of air resistance on a large flat surfaced object is much greater than on a small, streamlined object.

Mike has a mass of 97 kg. He jumps out of a perfectly good airplane that is 2000 m above the ground. After he falls 1000 m, when
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

a)  fr = 224.3 N , b)   fr = 224.3 N , c)   v = 198.0  m/s

Explanation:

a) For this exercise let's start by calculating the acceleration in the fall

             v² = v₀² - 2 a (y-y₀)

When it jumps the initial vertical speed is zero

             a = -v² / 2 (y-y₀)

             a = -68 2/2 (1000-2000)

             a = 2,312 m / s²

Let's use the second net law to enter the average friction force

            fr = m a

            fr = 97 2,312

            fr = 224.3 N

b) let's look for acceleration

            v² = v₀² - 2 a y

            a = (v² –v₀²) / 2 (y-y₀)

            a = (4² - 68²) / 2 (0-1000)

            a = 2,304 m / s²

            fr = m a

            fr = 97 2,304

            fr = 223.5 N

c) the speed of the wallet is searched with kinematics

           v² = v₀² - 2 g (y-y₀)

           v = √ (0-2 9.8 (0-2000))

           v = 198.0  m/s

Water flows through a 4.50-cm inside diameter pipe with a speed of 12.5 m/s. At a later position, the pipe has a 6.25-cm inside
jek_recluse [69]

Given,

The initial inside diameter of the pipe, d₁=4.50 cm=0.045 m

The initial speed of the water, v₁=12.5 m/s

The diameter of the pipe at a later position, d₂=6.25 cm=0.065 m

From the continuity equation,

\begin{gathered} A_1v_1=A_2v_2 \\ \pi(\frac{d_1}{2})^2v_1=\pi(\frac{d_2}{2})^2v_2 \\ \Rightarrow d^2_1v_1=d^2_2v_2 \end{gathered}

Where A₁ is the area of the cross-section at the initial position, A₂ is the area of the cross-section of the pipe at a later position, and v₂ is the flow rate of the water at the later position.

On substituting the known values,

\begin{gathered} 0.045^2\times12.5=0.065^2\times v_2 \\ \Rightarrow v_2=\frac{0.045^2\times12.5}{0.065^2} \\ =5.99\text{ m/s} \end{gathered}

Thus, the flow rate of the water at the later position is 5.99 m/s

Fission is the process of creating energy by
Colt1911 [192]
<h2>Answer: The separation of the components of the nucleous of the atom  </h2><h2> </h2>

The n<u>uclear fission</u> consists of dividing a heavy nucleus into two or more lighter or smaller nuclei, by means of the <u>bombardment with neutrons to make it unstable. </u>

Then, with this division a great release of energy occurs and the emission of two or three neutrons, other particles and gamma rays.

It should be noted that in the process, the emitted neutrons can interact with new fissionable nuclei that will emit new neutrons and so on. Effect better known as chain reaction.
