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

Why do we need the periodic table? First to answer get brainless!!!!!
mylen [45]
<span>The periodic table is the most important chemistry reference there is. It arranges all the known elements in an informative array. Elements are arranged left to right and top to bottom in order of increasing atomic number. Order generally coincides with increasing atomic mass.

We know the frequency range of certain sounds are: 400-560 Hz, what are the ranges of wavelength in meters when the signal trans
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

Range of wavelength will be 5.35\times 10^5m to 7.5\times 10^5m

Explanation:

We have given range of frequency is 400-560 Hz

Speed of the light c=3\times 10^8m/sec

We have to find the range of the wavelength of signal transmitted

Ween know that velocity is given by v=\lambda f, here \lambda is wavelength and f is frequency

So for 400 Hz frequency wavelength will be \lambda =\frac{c}{f}=\frac{3\times 10^8}{400}=7.5\times 10^5m

And wavelength for frequency 560 Hz \lambda =\frac{c}{f}=\frac{3\times 10^8}{560}=5.35\times 10^5m

So range of wavelength will be 5.35\times 10^5m to 7.5\times 10^5m
