8 0

Answer: K.E = 8.3 J

Explanation:

The given parameters are

Height h = 169.2 m

Mass m = 0.005kg

From conservation of energy, at the top of the monument, the total energy will be kinetic energy which is equal to the potential energy. That is,

K.E = P.E

And

P.E = mgh

Where g = 9.81 m/s^2

Substitutes all the parameters into the formula

P.E = 0.005 × 9.81 × 169.2

P.E = 8.2908 J

Therefore, the kinetic energy (KE) of the nickel in her shirt pocket at the top of the monument is approximately 8.3 Joule.

Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

The two equations below express conservation of energy and conservation of mass for water flowing from a circular hole of radius 3 centimeters at the bottom of a cylindrical tank of radius 10 centimeters. In these equations, delta m is the mass that leaves the tank in time delta t, v is the velocity of the water flowing through the hole, and h is the height of the water in the tank at time t. g is the acceleration of gravity, which you should approximate as 1000 cm/s2.

An object moves in uniform circular motion at 25 m/s and takes 1.0 second to go a quarter circle. What is the radius of the circ
FromTheMoon [43]
Object Motion: 25 m/s

Circumference of Circle: 
1/4 Circumference of Circle in 1 second = 25 meters
25 meters times 4 = Circumference of Circle 
Circumference = 100 meters

Formula to Find Circumference of Circle: (work opposite)
C = 2<span>πr

100 = </span>2πr          divided
100/2π = r         simplify
50/π = r         (exact radius)

Answer:
50/π meters = r         (exact radius)

A .025 kg bullet is moving at 350 m/s when it hits and then passes through a 7 kg block of wood. After the bullet passes through
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

The final velocity of the wooden block is equal to 1.035 m/s

Explanation:

Given that mass of bullet = m_{b} = 0.025kg

                Mass of wood = m_{w} = 7kg

               Initial velocity of bullet = u_{b} = 350m/s

              Final velocity of bullet = v_{b} = 60m/s

               Initial velocity of wood = o

               Final velocity of wood = v_{w]

   Here momentum is conserved so initial momentum = final momentum

            m_{b}u_{b} = m_{b} v_{b} + m_{w}v_{w} .

    Upon substituting these values in above equation , we get

        v_{w} = 1.035m/s.
