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

A wave has a frequency of 15,500 Hz and a wavelength of 0.20 m. What is the

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

3100 m/s

Explanation:

The relationship between frequency and wavelength of a wave is given by the wave equation:

$v=f\lambda$

where

v is the speed of the wave

f is its frequency

$\lambda$ is the wavelength

For the wave in this problem,

f = 15,500 Hz

$\lambda=0.20 m$

Therefore, the wave speed is

$v=(15500)(0.20)=3100 m/s$

The radius of a small ball is around 3.79747 cm. The radius of a basketball is about 3.16 times larger. What is the ratio of the

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Explanation:

The ratio of the areas is the square of the ratio of the radii.

A/A = 3.16² = 9.99

The ratio of the volumes is the cube of the ratio of the radii.

V/V = 3.16³ = 31.6

A glass of root beer with a scoop of ice cream floating on top and a straw sticking out.

vampirchik [111]

Answer:

These forces are all equal and cancel each other out. Gravity pushes downward on the ice cream. This can also be called the weight of the ice cream. Buoyant force pushes the ice cream upward

Newton’s Second Law of motion defines force in terms of mass and acceleration, F= ma. Which of the following is false? The term

NikAS [45]

Answer:

The forces creating the net force must lie in the same direction.

Explanation:

newton's second law states that the net force acting on the body is equal to the product of mass and the acceleration of the body.

If there are several forces acting on the body in different directions, then we have to find teh net force by using the vector sum and then find the acceleration.

It is not necessary that all the forces acting in the same direction.

if they are in different directions then we have to find the net force by t=using the formula for the vector sum.
