Answer:

2.45 J

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mass (m) = 0.5 kg

Height (h) = 1 m

Kinetic energy (KE) =?

Next, we shall determine the velocity of the rock after it has fallen half way. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Height (h) = 1/2 = 0.5 m

Final velocity (v) =?

v² = u² + 2gh

v² = 0² + (2 × 9.8 × 0.5)

v² = 9.8

Take the square root of both side

v = √9.8

v = 3.13 m/s

Finally, we shall determine the kinetic energy of the rock after it has fallen half way. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (m) = 0.5 kg

Velocity (v) = 3.13 m/s

Kinetic energy (KE) =?

KE = ½mv²

KE = ½ × 0.5 × 3.13²

KE = 0.25 × 9.8

KE = 2.45 J

Therefore, the kinetic energy of the rock after it has fallen half way is 2.45 J

Which best symbolizes the hydrogen bonding between two water molecules?
Artemon [7]

The best symbolizes the hydrogen bonding between two water molecules is given in the diagram.

<h3 /><h3>What is hydrogen bonding?</h3>

A hydrogen bond is an attraction between an electronegative atom carrying a single pair of electrons—the hydrogen bond acceptor—and a hydrogen atom that is covalently bonded to a more electronegative "donor" atom or group.

One definition of a polar covalent bond is one in which one atom has a stronger alternation for electron negativity difference between two bonds, the more polar the link.

Polar molecules like H2O have a mild partial negative charge in one area and a partial positive charge in another.

A child bounces a 60 g superball on the sidewalk. The velocity change of the superball is from 22 m/s downward to 15 m/s upward.
fgiga [73]

complete question:

A child bounces a 60 g superball on the sidewalk. The velocity change of the superball is from 22 m/s downward to 15 m/s upward. If the contact time with the sidewalk is 1/800 s, what is the magnitude of the average force exerted on the superball by the sidewalk

Answer:

F = 1776  N

Explanation:

mass of ball = 60 g = 0.06 kg

velocity of downward direction = 22 m/s = v1

velocity of upward direction = 15 m/s = v2

Δt = 1/800 = 0.00125 s

Linear momentum of a particle with mass and velocity is the product of the mass and it velocity.

p = mv

When a particle move freely and interact with another system within a period of time and again move freely like in this scenario it has a definite change in momentum. This change is defined as Impulse .

I = pf − pi = ∆p

F =  ∆p/∆t  =  I/∆t

let the upward velocity be the positive

Δp =  mv2 - m(-v1)

Δp =  mv2 - m(-v1)

Δp = m (v2 + v1)

Δp = 0.06( 15 + 22)

Δp = 0.06(37)

Δp = 2.22 kg m/s

∆t  = 0.00125

F =  ∆p/∆t

F =  2.22/0.00125

F = 1776  N
