A ball of 10kg falls from rest from a height of 150m, Neglating air resistance, calculate its kinetic energy after falling a dis

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 parallel plate air capacitor has a capacitance of 10 to the power -9. What potential difference is required for a charge of 5×
Maurinko [17]

The potential difference across the capacitor is 5 × 10∧4 volts and the energy stored in it is 1. 25 Joules

<h3>What is the energy in a capacitor?</h3>

The energy stored in a capacitor is an electrostatic potential energy.

It is related to the charge(Q) and voltage (V) between the capacitor plates.

It is represented as 'U'.

<h3>How to determine the potential difference</h3>

Formula:

Potential difference, V is the ratio of the charge to the capacitance of a capacitor.

It is calculated using:

V = Q ÷ C

Where Q = charge 5 × 10∧-5C and C = capacitance 10∧-9

Substitute the values into the equation

Potential difference, V = 5 × 10∧-5 ÷  10∧-9 = 5 × 10∧4 volts

<h3>How to determine the energy stored</h3>

Formula:

Energy, U = 1 ÷ 2 (QV)

Where Q= charge and V = potential difference across the capacitor

Energy, U = 1 ÷ 2 ( 5 × 10∧-5 × 5 × 10∧4)

= 0.5 × 25 × 10∧-1

= 0.5 × 2.5

= 1. 25 Joules

Therefore, the potential difference across the capacitor is 5 × 10∧4 volts and the energy stored in it is 1. 25 Joules

A plane accelerates from rest at a constant rate of 5.00 m/s2 along a runway that is 1800 m long. Assume that the plane reaches
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

26.8 seconds

Explanation:

To solve this problem we have to use 2 kinematics equations: *I can't use subscripts for some reason on here so I am going to use these variables:

v = final velocity

z = initial velocity

x = distance

t = time

a = acceleration

{v}^{2}  =  {z}^{2}  + 2ax

v = z + at

First let's find the final velocity the plane will have at the end of the runway using the first equation:

{v}^{2}  =  {0}^{2}  + 2(5)(1800)

v = 60 \sqrt{5}

Now we can plug this into the second equation to find t:

60 \sqrt{5}  = 0 + 5t

t = 12 \sqrt{5}

Then using 3 significant figures we round to 26.8 seconds
