Answer:

13.66 kJ

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of Pam, m = 40.4 kg

Distance moved by the force, d = 26.7 m

Speed attained by Pam, v = 26 m/s

The kinetic energy is given by the formula, K.E = 1/2 mv², where

K.E = the needed kinetic energy

m = mass of the object(Pam)

v = velocity of the object(Pam)

Applying the formula, we have

K.E = 1/2 * 40.4 * 26²

K.E = 20.2 * 676

K.E = 13655.2 J

The Kinetic Energy is 13.66 kJ

A scientist is studying a shock wave from an earthquake. What kind of wave is being studying?
Pavel [41]

Answer:

Longitudinal Mechanical Wave

Explanation:

Mechanical waves are the waves that require medium to propagate. And a longitudinal wave is a wave in which the vibration of the energy(here: mass specifically) is in the direction of propagation of wave.

Shock wave, strong pressure wave in any elastic medium such as air, water, or a solid substance, produced by supersonic aircraft, explosions, lightning, or other phenomena that create violent changes in pressure.

Shock waves travel faster than sound and their speed increases as the amplitude of the wave is increased but their intensity fades faster due to the fact that some of its energy gets expended in the form of heat due to the resistance of the medium.

When the palmaris longus muscle in the forearm is flexed, the wrist moves back and forth. If the muscle generates a force of 45.
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

Torque on the rocket will be 1.11475 N -m

Explanation:

We have given that muscles generate a force of 45.5 N

So force F = 45.5 N

This force acts on the is acting on the effective lever arm of 2.45 cm

So length of the lever arm d = 2.45 cm = 0.0245 m

We have to find torque

We know that torque is given by \tau =F\times d=45.5\times 0.0245=1.11475N-m

So torque on the rocket will be 1.11475 N -m

How have moral and ethical issues influenced science
umka2103 [35]
Often times, moral and ethical issues could hindrance the development of science.
For example, the cloning technology has been hindranced by these type of issues since the beginning of its creation.
The moral and ethical aspect of society somehow oppose the technology because they feel that the sicentists are 'playing God' and doing something that humans are not suppose to be doing, even though there might be overwhelming benefits from the technology.
