Answer:

Kinetic energy, form of energy that an object or a particle has by reason of its motion. ... Kinetic energy is a property of a moving object or particle and depends not only on its motion but also on its mass.

A ball is whirled on the end of a string in a horizontal circle of radius R at constant speed v. Complete the following statemen
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

Keeping the speed fixed and decreasing the radius by a factor of 4

Explanation:

A ball is whirled on the end of a string in a horizontal circle of radius R at constant speed v. The centripetal acceleration is given by :

a=\dfrac{v^2}{R}

We need to find how the "centripetal acceleration of the ball can be increased by a factor of 4"

It can be done by keeping the speed fixed and decreasing the radius by a factor of 4 such that,

R' = R/4

New centripetal acceleration will be,

a'=\dfrac{v^2}{R'}

a'=\dfrac{v^2}{R/4}

a'=4\times \dfrac{v^2}{R}

a'=4\times a

So, the centripetal acceleration of the ball can be increased by a factor of 4.

A stone is thrown vertically upwards with an initial velocity of 20m/sec. Find the maximum height ot reaches and the time taken
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

The height reached is 20m, The time taken to reach 20m is 2 seconds

Explanation:

Observing the equations of motion we can see that the following equation will be most helpful for this question.

v^{2} = u^{2} + 2as

We are given initial velocity, u

We know that the stone will stop at its maximum height, so final velocity, v

Acceleration, a

And we are looking for the displacement (height reached), s

Substitute the values we are given into the equation

0^{2} = 20^{2} + 2(10)s

Rearrange for s

0^{2} -20^{2} =20s

-400=20s

\frac{-400}{20} =s

s = -20 (The negative is just showing direction, it can be ignored for now)

The height reached is 20m

Use a different equation to find the time taken

s = vt - \frac{1}{2} at^{2}

Substitute in the values we have

-20=(0)t - \frac{1}{2} (10)t^{2}

Rearrange for t

-20 =0 -5 t^{2}

\frac{-20}{-5} =t^{2}

4 = t^{2}

t = 2s

The time taken to reach 20m is 2 seconds

Suppose that a freely falling object were somehow equipped with an odometer. Would the readings of distance fallen each second i
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

1  greater distances fallen in successive seconds

Explanation:

When a body falls freely it is subjected to the action of the force of gravity, which gives an acceleration of 9.8 m / s2, consequently, we are in an accelerated movement

If we use the kinematic formula we can find the position of the body

       Y = Vo t + ½ to t2

Where the initial velocity is zero or constant and the acceleration is the acceleration of gravity

Y = - ½ g t2 = - ½ 9.8 t2 = -4.9 t2

Let's look for the position for successive times

t (s)      Y (m)

  1          -4.9

  2         -19.6

   3        -43.2

The sign indicates that the positive sense is up

It can be clearly seen that the distance is greatly increased every second that passes
