Work-Energy Theorem: A 4.0 kg object is moving with speed 2.0 m/s. A 1.0 kg object is moving with speed 4.0 m/s. Both objects en

The same braking force does work on these objects to slow them down. The work done is equal to their change in kinetic energy:

FΔx = 0.5mv²

F = force, Δx = distance traveled, m = mass, v = speed

Isolate Δx:

Δx = 0.5mv²/F

Calculate Δx for each object.

Object 1: m = 4.0kg, v = 2.0m/s

Δx = 0.5(4.0)(2.0)²/F = 8/F

Object 2: m = 1.0kg, v = 4.0m/s

Δx = 0.5(1.0)(4.0)²/F = 8/F

The two objects travel the same distance before stopping.

"the student drops one cannonball, and exactly 1.0 s later drops the other cannonball from the same height. what is the time int
Elden [556K]

Answer;

1 second

Explanation;

Two objects moving at the same speed will always stay the same distance apart. If two objects are moving at different speeds, the distance between them must change.

Therefore; if the distance will be the same and the speed is also the same then the time taken will be the same.

Your low-flow showerhead is delivering water at 1.2×10−4m3/s, about 2.0 gallons per minute.
Oksanka [162]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the fluid mechanics equations related to continuity, for which the proportion of the input flow is equal to the output flow, in other words:

Q_1 = Q_2

We know that the flow rate is equivalent to the velocity of the fluid in its area, that is,

Q = VA

Where

V = Velocity

A = Cross-sectional Area

Our values are given as

Q_2 = 1.2*10^{-4}m^3/s

d = 0.021m

r = \frac{0.021}{2} = 0.0105m

Since there is continuity we have now that,

V_1A_1 = Q_2

V_1A_1 = 1.2*10^{-4}

V_1 = \frac{1.2*10^{-4}}{A_2}

V_1 = \frac{1.2*10^{-4}}{\pi r^2}

V_1 = \frac{1.2*10^{-4}}{\pi (0.0105)^2}

V_1 =0.347m/s

Therefore the speed of the water's house supply line is 0.347m/s
