A 10 Kg dog is running with a speed of 5.0 m/s what is the minimum work required to stop the dog

Physics
1 answer:
ra1l [238]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

25J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the dog  = 10kg

Speed of the dog  = 5m/s

Unknown:

The minimum energy required to stop the dog  = ?

Solution:

The dog is moving with a kinetic energy and to stop the dog, an equal amount of kinetic energy generated must be applied to the dog.

 To find the kinetic energy;

        K.E  = \frac{1}{2} m v²

m is the mass

v is the velocity

Now insert the parameters and solve;

      K.E  =  \frac{1}{2}  x 10 x 5  = 25J

A person throws a pumpkin at a horizontal speed of 4.0 — off a cliff. The pumpkin travels 9.5 m horizontally
emmainna [20.7K]

Complete Question

A person throws a pumpkin at a horizontal speed of   4.0 m/s off a cliff. The pumpkin travels 9.5m horizontally before it hits the ground. We can ignore air resistance.What is the pumpkin's vertical displacement during the throw? What is the pumpkin's vertical velocity when it hits the ground?

Answer:

The  pumpkin's vertical displacement  is  H = 27 .67 \ m

The  pumpkin's vertical velocity when it hits the ground is  v_v__{f}} = 23.298 \  m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  horizontal speed is  v_h  =  4 m/s

    The horizontal distance traveled is  d =  9.5 \ m

The horizontal distance traveled is mathematically represented as

           S =  v_h * t

Where t is the time taken

substituting values

          9.5 =  4 * t

   =>     t =  \frac{9.5}{4}

            t = 2.38 \ sec

Now the vertical displacement is mathematically represented as

        H  =  v_v t  +  \frac{1}{2} a_v t^2

now the vertical velocity before the throw is  zero

    So

          H =  0 +  \frac{1}{2} (9.8) * (2.375)^2

          H = 27 .67 \ m

Now the final vertical velocity  is mathematically represented as

          v_v__{f}} =  v_v + at

  substituting values

             v_v__{f}} =  0 + (9.8)* (2.375)

            v_v__{f}} = 23.298 \  m/s

Who has the greater velocity, an astronaut who has just completed an orbit of the Earth or you when you have just traveled from
Alik [6]

Answer:

the answer is

Explanation:

constant acceleration

because when the object's velocity is changing then the object is accelerating or decelerating

as acceleration describe changing of velocity so the answer is constant acceleration

Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity.

Acceleration = (Change in velocity) / time taken

Acceleration = (Final velocity - initial velocity) / time

As the object velocity changes by the same amount in each second, it means the acceleration is constant.

A rain cloud contains 5.32 × 107 kg of water vapor. The acceleration of gravity is 9.81 m/s 2 . How long would it take for a 2.0
Alja [10]

Answer:

20.85 years

Explanation:

2.61 km = 2610 m

2.07 kW = 2070 W

First we need to calculate the potential energy required to take m = 5.32 * 10^7 kg of rain cloud to an altitude of 2610 m is

E = mgh = 5.32 * 10^7 * 9.81 * 2610 = 1.4*10^{12}J

With a P = 2070 W power pump, this can be done within a time frame of

t = E/P = \frac{1.4*10^{12}}{2070} = 658037739 s

or 658037739/(60*60) = 182788 hours or 182788 / 24 = 7616 days or 7616 / 365.25 = 20.85 years

A 62 kg boy and a 37 kg girl use an elastic rope while engaged in a tug-of-war on a friction-less icy surface. If the accelerati
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

The magnitude of the acceleration of the boy toward the girl is 1.31\ m/s^2

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the boy, m_1=62\ kg

Mass of the girl, m_2=37\ kg

The acceleration of the girl toward the boy is, a_2=2.2\ m/s^2

To find,

The acceleration of the boy toward the girl.

Solution,

Let a_1 is the magnitude of the acceleration of the boy toward the girl. We know that force acting on one object to other are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction. So,

F_1=-F_2

m_1a_1=-m_2a_2

a_1=-\dfrac{m_2a_2}{m_1}

a_1=-\dfrac{37\times 2.2}{62}

a_1=-1.31\ m/s^2

|a_1|=1.31\ m/s^2

So, the magnitude of the acceleration of the boy toward the girl is 1.31\ m/s^2
