A sprinter runs at a forward velocity of 8.94 m/s. If the sprinter has a mass of 62.4 kg, what is the sprinter's kinetic energy?

-Dominant- [34]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: 2490 J

Explanation:

The formula to calculate kinetic energy is 1/2mv² where,

m = mass = 62.4

v = velocity = 8.94

Kinetic energy = 1/2mv²

= 1/2 × 62.4 × 8.94²

= 1/2 × 62.4 × 79.9236

= 2493.6J

The closest answer is option D.

Consider three scenarios in which a particular box moves downward under the pull of gravity :
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

1. True  WA > WB > WC

Explanation:

In this exercise they give work for several different configurations and ask that we show the relationship between them, the best way to do this is to calculate each work separately.

A) Work is the product of force by distance and the cosine of the angle between them

    WA = W h cos 0

   WA = mg h

B) On a ramp without rubbing

     Sin30 = h / L

     L = h / sin 30

     WB = F d cos θ  

     WB = F L cos 30

     WB = mf (h / sin30) cos 30

     WB = mg h ctan 30

C) Ramp with rubbing

    W sin 30 - fr = ma

   N- Wcos30 = 0

   W sin 30 - μ W cos 30 = ma

    F = W (sin30 - μ cos30)

   WC = mg (sin30 - μ cos30) h / sin30

   Wc = mg (1 - μ ctan30) h

When we review the affirmation it is the work where there is rubbing is the smallest and the work where it comes in free fall at the maximum

Let's review the claims

1. True The work of gravity is the greatest and the work where there is friction is the least

2 False. The job where there is friction is the least

3 False work with rubbing is the least

4 False work with rubbing is the least

A hot-air balloon is rising straight up with a speed of 4.6 m/s. a ballast bag is released from rest relative to the balloon at
kherson [118]

The time taken by the ballast bag to reach the ground is 2.18 s

The ballast bag at rest with respect to the balloon has the upward velocity (u) of 4.6 m/s , which is the velocity of the balloon. When it is dropped from the balloon, its motion is similar to an object thrown upwards with an initial velocity <em>u </em>and it falls under the acceleration due to gravity<em> g.</em>

Taking the upward direction as positive and the downward direction as negative, the following equation of motion may be used.

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

The bag makes a net displacement <em>s</em> of 13.4 m downwards, hence

s=-13.4 m

Its initial velocity is

u=+4.6 m/s

The acceleration due to gravity acts downwards and hence it is negative.

g=-9.8 m/s^2

Use the values in the equation of motion and write an equation for t.

s=ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2 \\ -13.4=4.6t-\frac{1}{2}(9.8)t^2\\ 4.9t^2-4.6t-13.4=0

Solving the equation for t and taking only the positive value for t,

t=2.18 s

A student sets up an experiment to determine the inertial mass of a cart. The student has access to the following measurement eq
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

The correct answers are a and d

Explanation:

In this experiment it can be analyzed using Newton's second law

       F = m a

       m = F / m

The outside is supplied by the spring balance and is constant, therefore the acceleration of the system is also constant.

The acceleration can be found with the kinematic equations

      x = v t + ½ a t²

As we start from rest the initial speed is zero

      a = 2 x / t²

Therefore we need the reading of position and time.

Finally, the relationship between the balance reading and this acceleration of the mass of the system

Let's analyze the answers

a) True. It is one of the necessary quantities

b) False. With the equipment we cannot measure the speed directly

c) false. Acceleration is calculated

d) true. It is the other magnitude necessary for the calculation.

The correct answers are a and d
