An 8 kg toddler is running at a speed of 10 m/s. how much energy does he have?

1 answer:

8 0

To find the Kinetic energy this is the equation

KE=1/2mv^2

so we know the mass (m) which is 8kg

we also know the velocity (v) which is 10 m/s

so we plug that into the equation and it should look like this - 1/2(8kg)(10m/s)^2 now we solve

so 1/2 x 8 = 4 so then we just do (4)(10)^2 which gets us 400.

Since kinetic=Joules

The answer is 400 J

Why is it important for scientists to use the scientific method?

Zepler [3.9K]

It is important because if they deviate then they may not achieve accurate measurable results, also so they can document their work.

An unknown mass of each of the following substances, initially at 23.0, absorbs 1910 of heat. The final temperature is recorded

babymother [125]

The data not given here is the specific heat capacity of pyrex glass equal to 0.75(J/g °C). In this case, heat is equal to mass x specific heat capacity x temperature rise. Temperature difference is then equal to 1910 J / 0.75 J/g °C / 23 g equal to 110. 75 <span>°C </span>

How would you find the speed of a person who walked

Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

v = 1.25 m/s

Explanation:

We have,

Distance covered by a person is 10 meters

Time taken by him to cover that distance is 8 seconds.

If we want to find the speed of a person, we must know distance covered by it and taken. In this case, we know both distance and time. His speed is given by :

$v=\dfrac{d}{t}\\\\v=\dfrac{10\ m}{8\ s}\\\\v=1.25\ m/s$

So, the speed of the person is 1.25 m/s.

An object is placed 10 cm in front of a diverging mirror. What is the focal length of the mirror if the image appears 2 cm behin

Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

the focal length of the mirror is : $f=-2.5\,\,cm$

Explanation:

Use the formula for the formation of image using a divergent mirror and recalling that the image (s') that this mirror formed is virtual, so it is entered as a negative number in the formula. Use the object position (s) as 10, the image position (s') as -2, and derive the value of the focal length:

$\frac{1}{s} +\frac{1}{s'}=\frac{1}{f}\\\frac{1}{10} +\frac{1}{-2}=\frac{1}{f}\\\frac{1}{10} -\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{f}\\\frac{10\,f}{10} -\frac{10\,f}{2}=\frac{10\,f}{f}\\f-5\,f=10\\-4\,f=10\\f=-2.5\,\,cm$
