In which one(s) of the following situations will there be an INCREASE in Kinetic Energy? Group of answer choices A block slides
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

The Kinetic Energy INCREASE in the following situations:

a)A block slides down a frictionless incline:

e)A merry go round rotates faster due to the push by a person.

Explanation:

The energy kinetics is proportional to the square of the velocity:

E_k=1/2*mv^2

We study the cases:

a)A block slides down a frictionless incline:

The gravity made a positive work and the box get a extra velocity, then the kinetics energy INCREASE

b)A box is pulled across a rough floor at constant speed:

The magnitude of the velocity does not change, so the kinetics energy does not change as well

c)A stone at the end of a string is whirled in a horizontal circle at constant speed:

The magnitude of the velocity does not change, so the kinetics energy does not change as well

d)A projectile approaches its maximum height:

If the projectile approaches its maximum height, its velocity approaches to zero. Then the kinetics Energy DECREASE

e)A merry go round rotates faster due to the push by a person.

Thanks to the push, the magnitude of the velocity INCREASE, so the kinetics energy INCREASE as well

A cannon, positioned on a hill, shoots a cannonball horizontally at 23 m/s. The cannonball hits the stone wall 1.96 m below the
irina [24]

Answer: 14. 49 m

Explanation:

We can solve this problem with the following equations:

x=V_{o} cos \theta t (1)

y-y_{o}=V_{o} sin \theta t-\frac{1}{2}gt^{2} (2)

Where:

x is the horizontal distance between the cannon and the ball

V_{o}=23 m/s is the cannonball initial velocity

\theta=0\° since the cannonball was shoot horizontally

t is the time

y=0 is the final height of the cannonball

y_{o}=1.96 m is the initial height of the cannonball

g=9.8 m/s^{2} is the acceleration due gravity

Isolating t from (2):

t=\sqrt{-\frac{2(y-y_{o})}{g}} (3)

t=\sqrt{-\frac{2(0 m-1.96 m)}{9.8 m/s^{2}}} (4)

t=0.63 s (5)

Substituting (5) in (1):

x=(23 m/s) cos(0\°) 0.63 s (6)

Finally:

x=14.49 m
