KE = (1/2)·(mass)·(speed)²

It doesn't matter whether the object is in a car, on a boat, 
falling, on a conveyor belt, or being carried by ants.

KE = (1/2)·(40 kg)·(2 m/s)²

KE = (20 kg)·(4 m²/s²)

KE = 80 kg-m²/s²

KE = 80 Joules

A firecracker in a coconut blows the coconut into three pieces. Two pieces of equal mass fly off south and west, perpendicular t
Lisa [10]

Explanation:

Let us assume that piece 1 is m_{1} is facing west side. And, piece 2 is m_{2} facing south side.

Let m_{1} \text{and} m_{2} = m and m_{3} = 2m. Hence,

        2mv_{3y} = m(21)

          v_{3y} = \frac{21}{2}

                     = 10.5 m/s

2mv_{3x} = m(21)

          v_{3x} = \frac{21}{2}

                     = 10.5 m/s

  v_{3} = \sqrt{v^{2}_{3x} + v^{2}_{3y}}

              = \sqrt{(10.5)^{2} + (10.5)^{2}}

              = 14.84 m/s

or,          = 15 m/s

Hence, the speed of the third piece is 15 m/s.

Now, we will find the angle as follows.

          \theta = tan^{-1} (\frac{v_{3y}}{v_{3x}})

                      = tan^{-1}(\frac{10.5}{10.5})

                      = tan^{-1} (45^{o})

                      = 45^{o}

Therefore, the direction of the third piece (degrees north of east) is north of east.

A small but bright light is at the bottom of a pool 2.2 m  deep. How wide is the circle of light that exits the surface of the
mixas84 [53]

Answer: 1.65m

Explanation:

Refractive index in terms of the depth of liquid is the ratio of the real depth to the apparent depth of the liquid i.e Refractive index =Real depth/apparent depth

Refractive index of water given = 1.33

Real depth is the measure of how deep is the liquid while apparent depth is the depth at the surface of the liquid.

Real depth = 2.2m

Apparent depth =?

Applying the formula above

Apparent depth =Real depth/refractive index

= 2.2/1.33

= 1.65m

Therefore, the circle of light that exits the surface of the water when that light shines in the middle of the night is 1.65m wide

Which of the following describes the charge of an atom before any electrons are transferred?
gregori [183]

The answer is neutral charge. An atom element will always and has to be stable, in order for this state to happen. The charge of an electron has to be neutral. For atom with neutral charge, the proton will always equal the number of electron.
