Answer:

4.0 Kg

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Velocity (v) = 48 m/s

Kinetic energy (KE) = 4632 J

Mass (m) =?

Kinetic energy can be defined as the energy possess by a moving object. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

KE = ½mv²

Where

KE => kinetic energy

m => mass of object

v => velocity

With the above formula, we can obtain the mass of the object as follow:

Velocity (v) = 48 m/s

Kinetic energy (KE) = 4632 J

Mass (m) =?

KE = ½mv²

4632 = ½ × m × 48²

4632 = ½ × m × 2304

4632 = m × 1152

Divide both side by 1152

m = 4632 / 1152

m = 4.0 Kg

Therefore, the mass of the object is 4.0 Kg

According to Einstein's special theory of relativity, in which frames of reference will all laws of physics apply?
kenny6666 [7]

Answer: Within any frame of reference that is accelerating

Special relativity was proposed on 1905 by Einstein, who developed his theory based on the following two postulates:

1. <em>The laws of physics are the same in all inertial systems. There is no preferential system. </em>

2. <em>The speed of light in vacuum has the same value for all inertial systems. </em>

Focusing on the first postulate, it can be affirmed that <u>any measurement on a body is made with reference to the system in which it is being measured</u>.

Now, taking into account that an inertial reference system is the one that complies with the principle of inertia:

<em>"For a body to have acceleration, an external force must act on it."</em>

The correct answer is  

Within any frame of reference that is accelerating

An astronaut on the moon throws a baseball upward. the astronaut is 6ft, 6 in. tall and the initial velocity of the ball is 30 f
Ainat [17]
The equation is garbled and the question is missing.

I found this equation for the same statement:

S = - 2.7t ^2 + 30t + 6.5

And one question is: after how many seconds is the ball 12 feet above the moon's surface?

Given that S is the height of the ball, you just have to replace S with 12 and solve for t.

=> 12 = - 2.7 t^2 + 30t + 6.5

=> 2.7t^2 - 30t - 6.5 + 12 = 0

=> 2.7t^2 - 30t + 5.5 = 0

Now you can use the quadratic equation fo find t:

t = { 30 +/- √ [30^2) - 4(2.7)(5.5)] } / (2*2.7)

=> t = 0.186s and t = 10.925 s

Answer: after 0.186 s the ball is at 12 feet over the surface, and again 10.925 s

How are emotional and intellectual health related
Tcecarenko [31]
A good way to think about mental and emotional health is like a tag team. Mental health refers to your ability to process information. Emotional health, on the other hand, refers to your ability to express feelings which are based upon the information you have processed.

What kind of wave (transverse of longitudinal) is each of the following and why?
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

1.) Longitudinal waves

2.) Transverse waves

3.) Longitudinal waves

Explanation:

The sound of one whale calling another whale underwater.  is a longitudinal wave since the medium, in this case the body of water, is vibrating parallel to the direction of propagation of the wave.

A pulse sent down a stretched rope by snapping one end of it. ( transverse wave) because its oscillations are perpendicular to the direction of the wave or path of propagation

The vibrations in a guitar string

Longitudinal wave. Because its oscillations are parallel to the direction of the wave or path of propagation
