A body weighing 250 grams was dropped from a helicopter flying at an altitude of 100 meters. Determine the potential energy of t

kogti [31]

Answer:

the potential energy of this body is 245 J.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the body, m = 250 g = 0.25 kg

height from which the body was dropped, h = 100 m

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

The potential energy of this body is calculated as;

P.E = mgh

substitute the given values and solve for the potential energy of this body;

P.E = 0.25 x 9.8 x 100

P.E = 245 J.

Therefore, the potential energy of this body is 245 J.

An object initially at rest experiences an acceleration of 1.90 m/s² for 6.60 s then travels at that constant velocity for anot

borishaifa [10]

Answer:

The magnitude of the object's average velocity is 9.74 m/s (9.80 m/s without any intermediate rounding).

Explanation:

Hi there!

The average velocity is calculated as the displacement of the object divided by the time it takes the object to do that displacement.

The displacement is calculated as the distance between the final position of the object and the initial position. <u>In this problem</u>, the displacement is equal to the traveled distance because the object travels only in one direction:

a.v = Δx/t

Where:

a.v = average velocity.

Δx = displacement = final position - initial position

t = time

So, let's find the distance traveled while the object was accelerating. For that, we will use this equation:

x = x0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · a · t²

Where:

x = position of the object at time t.

x0 = initial position.

v0 = initial velocity.

t = time.

a = acceleration.

In this case, since the object is initially at rest, v0 = 0. If we place the origin of the frame of reference at the point where the object starts moving, then x0 = 0. So, the equation of the position of the object after a time t will be:

x = 1/2 · a · t²

x = 1/2 · 1.90 m/s² · (6.60 s)²

x = 41.4 m

The object traveled 41.4 m during the first 6.60 s.

Now, let's find the rest of the traveled distance.

When the velocity is constant, a = 0. Then, the equation of position will be:

x = x0 + v · t

Let's place now the origin of the frame of reference at the point where the object starts traveling at constant velocity so that x0 = 0:

x = v · t

The velocity reached by the object during the acceleration phase is calculated as follows:

v = v0 + a · t (v0 = 0 because the object started from rest)

v = 1.90 m/s² · 6.60 s

v = 12.5 m/s

Then, the distance traveled by the object at a constant velocity will be:

x = 12.5 m/s · 8.50 s

x = 106 m

The total traveled distance in 15.1 s is (106 m + 41.4 m) 147 m.

Then the displacement will be:

Δx = final position - initial position

Δx = 147 m - 0 = 147 m

and the average velocity will be:

a.v = Δx/t

a.v = 147 m / 15.1 s

a.v = 9.74 m/s

The magnitude of the object's average velocity is 9.74 m/s (9.80 m/s without any intermediate rounding).

What includes a distance and a direction? A. Displacement B. Velocity C. Speed D. Acceleration

iren [92.7K]

hi <3

the correct option would be A. displacement. displacement is distance in a direction

hope this helps :)

A 6.0 kg metal ball moving at 4.0 m/s hits a 6.0 kg ball of putty at rest and sticks to it. The two go on at 2.0 m/s.

lutik1710 [3]

The metal ball lost energy while the putty ball gained energy.

<h3>What is momentum?</h3>

Momentum is the product of mass and velocity of the body. We must note that momentum before collision is equal to momentum after collision.

1) Kinetic energy before collision = 1/2mv^2 = 0.5 * 6 * 4 = 12 J

2) kinetic energy after collision = 0.5 * 6 * 2= 6 J

3) Kinetic energy of putty ball = 0.5 * 6 * 2= 6 J

4) Energy lost by the metal ball = 12 J - 6 J = 6 J

5) Energy gained by the putty ball = 6 J - 0J = 6 J

6) The rest of the energy was converted to heat after the collision.

One student did an experiment on the rock cycle.

Nonamiya [84]

First, when the student added the layers of wax over each other, this became a representation of sedimentary rocks.

Then the student folded his/her palm and squeezed the layers of wax. This means that the student applied heat and pressure on the wax (sedimentary rocks)

Referring to the diagram below which represents the rock cycle, we will find that applying heat and pressure on sedimentary rocks would convert these rocks into metamorphic rocks.

Based on the above, the best choice would be:
