A 5 kg object is moving in a straight-line with an initial speed of v m/s. It takes 13 s for the speed of the object to increase

to 13 m/s and it kinetic energy increases at a rate of 15 J/s. What is the initial speed v (in m/s)?

The object's kinetic energy changes according to

d<em>K</em>/d<em>t</em> = 15 J/s

If <em>v</em> is the object's initial speed, then its initial kinetic energy is

<em>K</em> (0) = 1/2 (5 kg) <em>v</em> ²

Use the fundamental theorem of calculus to solve for <em>K</em> as a function of time <em>t</em> :

K(t) = K(0) + \displaystyle\int_0^t \left(15\frac{\rm J}{\rm s}\right)\,\mathrm du = \dfrac12 (5\,\mathrm{kg}) v^2 + \left(15\dfrac{\rm J}{\rm s}\right)t

After <em>t</em> = 13 s, the object's kinetic energy is

<em>K</em> (13 s) = 1/2 (5 kg) (13 m/s)² = 422.5 J

Put this as the left side in the equation above for <em>K(t)</em> and solve for <em>v</em> :

422.5\,\mathrm J = \dfrac12 (5\,\mathrm{kg}) v^2 + \left(15\dfrac{\rm J}{\rm s}\right)(13\,\mathrm s)

==>   <em>v</em> ≈ 9.5 m/s

How is the percent efficiency of a machine determined?
NemiM [27]

Since work is the change in kinetic energy, the efficiency of a machine can be stated as the percentage of the output work divided by the input work minus the work lost from to friction and heat. Multiply Eff by 100% to get the efficiency percentage.

Real springs have mass. How will the true period andfrequency
Ad libitum [116K]

Explanation:

An perfect mass less spring, attached at one end and with a free mass attached at the other end, will have a distinct frequency of oscillation depending on its constant spring and mass. On the other hand, a spring with mass along its length will not have a characteristic frequency of oscillation.

Alternatively, based on its spring constant and mass per length, it will now have a wave Speed. It would be possible to use all wavelengths and frequencies, as long as the component fλ= S, where S is the spring wave size. If that sounds like longitudinal waves, like solid sound waves.

In the equation F = Kq1 q2/r2 solve for q2. Solve for r.
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

r = √(k q₁ q₂ / F)

Explanation:

F = k q₁ q₂ / r²

Multiply both sides by r²:

F r² = k q₁ q₂

Divide both sides by F:

r² = k q₁ q₂ / F

Take the square root of both sides:

r = √(k q₁ q₂ / F)
