Answer: $3920\ J$

Explanation:

Given

mass of ball m=10 kg

It is placed at a height of 150 m

It is dropped from the height and allowed to free fall for 40 m

Velocity acquired by the ball during this fall is given by $v^2-u^2=2as$

Insert u=0, a=g

$\Rightarrow v^2-0=2\times 9.8\times 40\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{784}\\\Rightarrow v=28\ m/s$

Kinetic energy at this instant

$K.E.=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 10\times 28^2\\\\\Rightarrow K.E.=3920\ J$

A runner begins from rest at the starting line and travles for 6.5 seconds, a runner reaches a speed of 13.4 m/s what is the run

Butoxors [25]

The acceleration of the runner in the given time is 2.06m/s².

Given the data in the question;

Since the runner begins from rest,

Initial velocity; $u = 0$

Final velocity; $v = 13.4m/s$

Time elapsed; $t = 6.5s$

Acceleration of the runner; $a = \ ?$

<h3>Velocity and Acceleration</h3>

Velocity is the speed at which an object moves in a particular direction.

Acceleration is simply the rate of change of the velocity of a particle or object with respect to time. Now, we can see the relationship from the First Equation of Motion

$v = u + at$

Where v is final velocity, u is initial velocity, a is acceleration and t is time elapsed.

To determine the acceleration of the runner, we substitute our given values into the equation above.

$v = u + at\\\\13.4m/s = 0 + (a * 6.5s)\\\\13.4m/s = a * 6.5s\\\\a = \frac{13.4m/s}{6.5s}\\ \\a = 2.06m/s^2$

Therefore, the acceleration of the runner in the given time is 2.06m/s².

A car of mass m push = 1200 kg is capable of a maximum acceleration of 6.00 m / s 2 . If this car is required to push a stalled

1)

first you find the maxium force that the car can produce.

f=ma

Fmax=(1100kg)(6m/s^2)

then use f = ma again to find the accel with the passengers

Fmax=(1100kg +1650kg)(a)

=> a = (1100kg)(6m/s^2)/( 1100kg +1650kg)

= 2.4 m/s^2

A 1.50 µF capacitor and a 3.50 µF capacitor are connected in series across a 2.50 V battery. How much charge (in µC) is stored o

Nataly_w [17]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

$C_{1} = 1.50 \times 10^{-6} F$

$C_{1} = 3.50 \times 10^{-6} F$

Voltage = 2.50 V

Hence, calculate the equivalence capacitor as follows.

$\frac{1}{C} = \frac{1}{C_{1}} + \frac{1}{C_{2}}$

$\frac{1}{C} = \frac{1}{1.50 \times 10^{-6} F} + \frac{1}{3.50 \times 10^{-6} F}$

= $0.945 \times 10^{-6} F$

C = $1.06 \times 10^{-6} F$

Now, we will calculate the charge across each capacitance as follows.

Q = CV

= $1.06 \times 10^{-6} F \times 2.50 V$

= $2.65 \times 10^{-6} C$

= $2.65 \mu C$

Thus, we can conclude that $2.65 \mu C$ is the charge stored on each given capacitor.

The magnitude of a negative of a vector is negative. O True O False

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

The given statement is false.

Explanation:

For any negative vector

$\overrightarrow{r}=-x\widehat{i}-y\widehat{j}$

The magnitude of the vector is given by

$|r|=\sqrt{(-x)^{2}+(-y)^{2}}\\\\|r|=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}$

As we know that square root of any quantity cannot be negative thus we conclude that the right hand term in the above expression cannot be negative hence we conclude that magnitude of any vector cannot be negative.
