Answer:

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of an object can be found by using the formula

$k = \frac{1}{2} m {v}^{2} \\$

m is the mass

v is the velocity

From the question we have

$k = \frac{1}{2} \times 8 \times {4}^{2} \\ = 4 \times 16$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

The radius of Earth is about 6450 km. A 7070 N spacecraft travels away from Earth. What is the weight of the spacecraft at a hei

Triss [41]

Answer:

(a) 1767.43 N

(b) 182.45 N

Explanation:

Radius of earth, R = 6450 km

Weight of person, W = 7070 N

mass of person, m = W / g = 7070 / 9.8 = 721.4 kg

(a) h = 6450 km

The value of acceleration due to gravity on height is given by

$g' = g\left ( \frac{R}{R+h} \right )^2$

$g' = g\left ( \frac{6450}{6450+6450} \right )^2$

g' = g / 4 = 9.8 / 4 = 2.45 m/s^2

The weight of the person at such height is

W' = m x g' = 721.4 x 2.45

W' = 1767.43 N

(b) h = 33700 km

The value of acceleration due to gravity on height is given by

$g' = g\left ( \frac{R}{R+h} \right )^2$

$g' = g\left ( \frac{6450}{6450+33700} \right )^2$

g' = g x 0.0258 = 9.8 x 0.0258 = 0.253 m/s^2

The weight of the person at such height is

W' = m x g'

W' = 721.4 x 0.253

W' = 182.45 N

LOTS OF POINTSA rocket of mass 40 000 kg takes off and flies to a height of 2.5 km as its engines produce 500 000 N of thrust.

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

i) E = 269 [MJ] ii)v = 116 [m/s]

Explanation:

This is a problem that encompasses the work and principle of energy conservation.

In this way, we establish the equation for the principle of conservation and energy.

$E_{k1}+W_{1-2}=E_{k2}\\where:\\E_{k1}= kinetic energy at moment 1\\W_{1-2}= work between moments 1 and 2.\\E_{k2}= kinetic energy at moment 2.$

$W_{1-2}= (F*d) - (m*g*h)\\W_{1-2}=(500000*2.5*10^3)-(40000*9.81*2.5*10^3)\\W_{1-2}= 269*10^6[J] or 269 [MJ]$

At that point the speed 1 is equal to zero, since the maximum height achieved was 2.5 [km]. So this calculated work corresponds to the energy of the rocket.

Er = 269*10^6[J]

ii ) With the energy calculated at the previous point, we can calculate the speed developed.

$E_{k2}=0.5*m*v^2\\269*10^6=0.5*40000*v^2\\v=\sqrt{\frac{269*10^6}{0.5*40000} }\\ v=116[m/s]$

Suppose for your cookout you need to make 100 hamburgers. You know that 2.00 pounds will make 9 hamburgers. How many pounds will

VMariaS [17]

2 pounds = 9 burgers figure out ow many 9's you can get out of 100: 100/9=11 but that only makes 99 you need 100 so we would add another one making 12. now multiply 12 by 2: 12·2=24. You would need 24 pounds of meet :)
