t hits the ground. Explain why you can do this.
A.because gravitational potential energy can convert to elastic potential energy
B.because gravitational potential energy can convert to kinetic energy
C.because the gravitational potential energy can convert to sound energy

Answer:

B.because gravitational potential energy can convert to kinetic energy

Explanation:

You can calculate the speed as it hits the ground because gravitational potential energy can convert to kinetic energy.

In this way, total energy can be conserved.

  • We can equate the kinetic energy and potential energy.
  • From this we can solve for the velocity.
  • This way, we know that the potential energy is changing to kinetic energy.

A spherical balloon has a radius of 6.55 m and is filled with helium. The density of helium is 0.179 kg/m3, and the density of a
Ksju [112]

Answer:

M_1 = 317.7 kg

Explanation:

Mass of the helium gas filled inside the volume of balloon is given as

m = \rho V

m = 0.179(\frac{4}{3}\pi R^3)

m = 0.179(\frac{4}{3}\pi 6.55^3)

m = 210.7 kg

now total mass of balloon + helium inside balloon is given as

M = 210.7 + 990

M = 1200.7 kg

now we know that total weight of balloon + cargo = buoyancy force on the balloon

so we will have

(M + M_1)g = \rho_{air} V g

(1200.7 + M_1) = (\frac{4}{3}\pi 6.55^3) (1.29)

1200.7 + M_1 = 1518.4

M_1 = 317.7 kg

Calculate the total energy of 4.0 kg object moving horizontally at 20 m/s 50 meters above the surface.
Serhud [2]

Answer:

Correct answer:  E total = 2,800 J

Explanation:

Given:

m = 4 kg   the mass of the object

V = 20 m/s  the speed (velocity) of the object

H = 50 m the height of the object above the surface

E total = ? J

The total energy of an object is equal to the sum of potential and kinetic energy

E total = Ep + Ek

Ep = m g H   we take g = 10 m/s²

Ep = 4 · 10 · 50 = 2,000 J

Ek = m V² / 2

Ek = 4 · 20² / 2 = 2 · 400 = 800 J

E total = 2,000 + 800 = 2,800 J

E total = 2,800 J

Compute the power output (watts) during one minute of treadmill exercise, given the following: Treadmill grade-10% Horizontal sp
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

c. 981 watts

P=981\ W

Explanation:

Given:

  • horizontal speed of treadmill, v=100\ m.min^{-1}=\frac{5}{3} \ m.s^{-1}
  • weight carried, w=588.6\ N
  • grade of the treadmill, G\%=10\%

<u>Now the power can be given by:</u>

P=v.w

P=588.6\times\frac{5}{3} (where grade is the rise of the front edge per 100 m of the horizontal length)

P=981\ W
