Answer:

Explanation:

I got everything but i. Don't know why but it's eluding me. So let's do everything but that.

a. PE = mgh so

   PE = (2.5)(98)(14) and

   PE = 340 J

b. KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2 so

   KE=\frac{1}{2}(2.5)(14)^2 and

   KE = 250 J

c. TE = KE + PE so

   TE = 340 + 250 and

   TE = 590 J

d. PE at 8.7 m:

   PE = (2.5)(9.8)(8.7) and

   PE = 210 J

e. The KE at the same height:

   TE = KE + PE and

   590 = KE + 210 so

   KE = 380 J

f. The velocity at that height:

   380=\frac{1}{2}(2.5)v^2 and

   v=\sqrt{\frac{2(380)}{2.5} } so

   v = 17 m/s

g. The velocity at a height of 11.6 m (these get a bit more involed as we move forward!). First we need to find the PE at that height and then use it in the TE equation to solve for KE, then use the value for KE in the KE equation to solve for velocity:

   590 = KE + PE and

   PE = (2.5)(9.8)(11.6) so

   PE = 280 then

   590 = KE + 280 so

   KE = 310 then

   310=\frac{1}{2}(2.5)v^2 and

   v=\sqrt{\frac{2(310)}{2.5} } so

   v = 16 m/s

h. This one is a one-dimensional problem not using the TE. This one uses parabolic motion equations. We know that the initial velocity of this object was 0 since it started from the launcher. That allows us to find the time at which the object was at a velocity of 26 m/s. Let's do that first:

   v=v_0+at and

   26 = 0 + 9.8t and

   26 = 9.8t so the time at 26 m/s is

   t = 2.7 seconds. Now we use that in the equation for displacement:

   Δx = v_0t+\frac{1}{2}at^2 and filling in the time the object was at 26 m/s:

   Δx = 0t + \frac{1}{2}(-9.8)2.7)^2 so

   Δx = 36 m

i. ??? In order to find the velocity at which the object hits the ground we would need to know the initial height so we could find the time it takes to hit the ground, and then from there, sub all that in to find final velocity. In my estimations, we have 2 unknowns and I can't seem to see my way around that connundrum.

igomit [66]

Answer:

mass = 9.7 kg

Explanation:

As we know that when object is at rest on the ground of flat base then we will have

N - mg = 0

so from here

N = mg

now we have

N = 95 Newton

now from above equation we will have

95 = m\times g

95 = m\times 9.8

m = 9.7 kg

Why can light travel through outer space, but sound cannot?
WINSTONCH [101]
Usually, sound needs a medium to travel through, like a vacuum for example. 

Light does not need a medium to travel, and since air is considered a medium, light is not dependent on that. 

On the other hand, sound needs a medium to travel through, and outer space doesn't contain space, therefore, no sound.
