Answer:

h = 0.25 [m]

v = 3.26 [m/s]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we must remember that mechanical energy is defined as the sum of kinetic energy plus potential energy.

E1 = Ek + Ep

where:

E1 = mechanical energy = 25 [J]

Ek = kinetic energy = 17 [J]

Ep = potential energy [J]

25 = 17 + Ep

Ep = 8 [J]

Now the potential energy is defined by the following equation:

Ep = m*g*h

where:

m = mass = 3.2 [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

h = elevation [m]

8 = 3.2*9.81*h

h = 0.25 [m]

The velocity can be calculated by means of kinetic energy.

E_{k} =\frac{1}{2} *m*v^{2}\\17 =\frac{1}{2} *3.2*v^{2} \\v= \sqrt{\frac{17*2}{3.2} }\\v = 3.26[m/s]

State Archimedes' principle.
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

Archimedes' principle states that, when a body is partially or completely immersed in a fluid, it experiences an apparent loss in weight that is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the immersed part of the body.

Explanation:

Archimedes' principle allows the buoyancy of an object partially or fully immersed in a fluid to be calculated. The downward force on the object is simply its weight. Thus, the net force on the object is the difference between the magnitudes

of the buoyant force and its weight. If this net force is positive, the object rises; if negative, the object sinks; and if zero, the object is neutrally buoyant - that is, it remains in place without either rising or sinking. In simple words,

A park ranger driving on a back country road suddenly sees a deer in his headlights 20
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

17.1

Explanation:

The distance ahead, of the deer when it is sighted by the park ranger, d = 20 m

The initial speed with which the ranger was driving, u = 11.4 m/s

The acceleration rate with which the ranger slows down, a = (-)3.80 m/s² (For a vehicle slowing down, the acceleration is negative)

The distance required for the ranger to come to rest, s = Required

The kinematic equation of motion that can be used to find the distance the ranger's vehicle travels before coming to rest (the distance 's'), is given as follows;

v² = u² + 2·a·s

∴ s = (v² - u²)/(2·a)

Where;

v = The final velocity = 0 m/s (the vehicle comes to rest (stops))

Plugging in the values for 'v', 'u', and 'a', gives;

s = (0² - 11.4²)/(2 × -3.8) = 17.1

The distance the required for the ranger's vehicle to com to rest, s = 17.1 (meters).
