Answer:

123.48J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the ball  = 2.8kg

Height  = 4.5m

Unknown:

Potential energy  = ?

Solution:

The potential energy is the energy due to the position of a body. It is mathematically given as;

      P.E   =  mgh

m is the mass

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height

 Now insert the parameters and solve;

          P.E  = 2.8 x 4.5 x 9.8  = 123.48J

A certain siren radiates sound uniformly in all directions. At a distance of 17 m from the siren, the intensity level is 49 db.
AveGali [126]

Answer:

The power is  P =  2.88*10^{-4 } \ W

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The distance from the siren  is  d =  17 \ m

  The intensity level is  \beta  =  49\ dB

   The threshold of hearing is   I_0 = 1.0 *10^{-12} \ W/m^2

Generally the intensity level is mathematically represented as

      \beta  =  10dB * log [\frac{I}{I_o} ]

Where I is the intensity at which the siren radiates the sound

substituting values  

       49  =  10 * log [\frac{I}{1.0 *10^{-12}} ]

=>    I  =  7.94*10^{-8} W/m^2

Now the amount of power the siren put out is mathematically evaluated as

      P= IA

Where A is the area  of the siren which is taken as a sphere  and it  is mathematically evaluated as

       A =  4 \pi d^2

So  

     P =  I  * 4 \pi d^2

substituting values

    P =  7.94 *10^{-8}  * 4  * 3.142 * (17)^2

   P =  2.88*10^{-4 } \ W

While traveling on a horizontal road at speed vi, a driver sees a large rabbit ahead and slams on the brakes. The wheels lock an
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

μk = (Vf - Vc)/(T×g)

Explanation:

Given

Vi = initial velocity of the car

Vf = final velocity of the car

T = Time of application of brakes

g = acceleration due to gravity (known constant)

Let the mass of the car be Mc

Assuming only kinetic frictional force acts on the car as the driver applies the brakes,

The n from Newtown's second law of motion.

Fk = Mc×a

Fk = μk×Mc×g

a = (Vf - Vc)/T

Equating both preceding equation.

μk×Mc×g = Mc × (Vf - Vc)/T

Mc cancels out.

μk = (Vf - Vc)/(T×g)
