Rahul runs a distance of 12

Physics
1 answer:
Radda [10]3 years ago

Answer:

Rita runs faster

Explanation:

To obtain the answer to the question given, we determine the speed of Rita. This can be obtained as follow:

Distance = 1.6 km

Time = 15 mins

Speed =?

Next, we shall convert 15 mins to hour. This can be obtained as follow:

60 mins = 1 h

Therefore,

15 mins = 15 mins × 1 h / 60 mins

15 mins = 0.25 h

Thus, 15 mins is equivalent to 0.25 h.

Finally, we shall determine speed of Rita as follow:

Distance = 1.6 km

Time = 0.25 h

Speed =?

Speed = distance / time

Speed = 1.6 / 0.25

Speed = 6.4 Km/h

Thus Rita's speed is 6.4 Km/h

Comparing the speed of Rahul and Rita

Rahul's speed = 4.5 km/h

Rita's speed = 6.4 Km/h

We can see that Rita's speed is greater than Rahul's speed. This simply indicates that Rita runs faster than Rahul.

A 0.350kg bead slides on a curved fritionless wire,
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

h2 = 0.092m

Explanation:

From a balance of energy from point A to point B, we get speed before the collision:

m1*g*h-\frac{m1*V_B^2}{2}=0  Solving for Vb:

V_B=\sqrt{2gh}=6.56658m/s

Since the collision is elastic, we now that velocity of bead 1 after the collision is given by:

V_{B'}=V_B*\frac{m1-m2}{m1+m2} = \sqrt{2gh}* \frac{m1-m2}{m1+m2}=-1.34316m/s

Now, by doing another balance of energy from the instant after the collision, to the point where bead 1 stops, we get the distance it rises:

m1*g*h2-\frac{m1*V_{B'}^2}{2}=0 Solving for h2:

h2 = 0.092m

When its 75 kW (100 hp) engine is generating full power, a small single-engine airplane with mass 700 kg gains altitude at a rat
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

0.2289

Explanation:

Power required to climb= Fv where F is force and v is soeed. We know that F= mg hence Power, P= mgv and substituting 700 kg for m, 9.81 for g and 2.5 m/s for v then

P= 700*9.81*2.5=17167.5 W= 17.1675 kW

To express it as a fraction of 75 kw then 17.1675/75=0.2289 or 22.89%

A fully loaded cart with a mass of 2200 kg starts from the top of a 12-meter hill on a roller coaster.
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

A. potential energy is 258720 Joule

Explanation:

A.Gravitational potential energy is: PE = m × g × h

velocity =  15.33 m/s when the car reaches the bottom of the hill.

where, m = mass

            g = acceleration due to gravity

            h = height from the bottom of hill.

The potential energy is : m×g×h

                                     =(2200×9.8×12)

                                     =258720 Joule

B. at the bottom of the hill, the potential energy is converted into kinetic energy so PE at top = KE at bottom

                    kinetic energy= \frac{1}{2}(m*v^{2})

where v = velocity

          m= mass

therefore,               v=\sqrt\frac{2*K.E}{m} {}

                         or,  v=\sqrt{\frac{2*258720}{2200} }

                         or,   v=15.33 m/s
