Its total mechanical energy is <em>2,000 J</em>.

We don't have enough information to say anything about its heat energy, its chemical energy, or the energy due to any electrical charge it may be carrying or any magnetic field it may have.

n a car lift used in a service station, compressed air exerts a force on a small piston that has a circular cross section of rad
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer: 1477.78 N

Explanation:

Let's assume that the cross sectional area of the smaller piston be A1

let's also assume the cross sectional area of the larger piston be A2

We assume the force applied to the smaller piston be F1

We also assume the force applied to the larger piston be F2

we then use the formula

F1/A1 = F2/A2

From our question,

The radius of the smaller piston is 5 cm = 0.05 m

The radius of the larger piston is 15 cm = 0.15 m

The force of the larger piston is 13300 N

The force of the smaller piston is unknown = F

A1 = πr² = 3.142 * 0.05² = 0.007855 m²

A2 = πr² = 3.142 * 0.15² = 0.070695 m²

F1/0.007855 = 13300/0.070695

F1 = (13300 * 0.007855) / 0.070695

F1 = 104.4715 / 0.070695

F1 = 1477.78 N

Thus, the force the compressed air must exert is 1477.78 N

2. How long will it take for a ball thrown vertically upward with an initial velocity of
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

13.33 seconds

Explanation:

At maximum height, the equation of motion becomes:

<em> v = u + at</em>

Since the object was thrown vertically, the initial velocity (u) is zero and the acceleration (a) becomes the acceleration due to gravity (10 m/s2). The equation becomes:

<em>v = at</em>

<em>v = 480 k</em>m/hr = 133.333 m/s

    10t = 133.333

       t = 133.333/10

           t = 13.33 seconds.

<em>The time for the ball thrown vertically with a velocity of 480 km/hr to reach the maximum height is </em><em>13.33 seconds</em><em>.</em>
