Which formulas are used to calculate potential and kinetic energy

Physics
2 answers:
solniwko [45]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

\boxed{\bold { \large { \boxed {KE=\frac{1}{2} mv^2 \ , \ PE=mgh}}}}

Explanation:

Kinetic energy formula

\displaystyle KE=\frac{1}{2} mv^2

Potential energy formula

\displaystyle PE=mgh

\displaystyle KE \Rightarrow \sf kinetic \ energy \ (J)

\displaystyle PE \Rightarrow \sf potential \ energy \ (J)

\displaystyle m \Rightarrow \sf mass \ (kg)

\displaystyle v \Rightarrow \sf velocity \ (m/s)

\displaystyle g \Rightarrow \sf acceleration \ of \ gravity\ (m/s^2)

\displaystyle h \Rightarrow \sf height \ (m)

An object of mass 8kg is attached to massless string of length 2m and swum with a tangential velocity of 3 what is the tension o
Paul [167]

Answer:

36 N

Explanation:

If the object of mass, m = 8 kg is swung in a horizontal circle of radius, r = 2m = length of string with tangential velocity v = 3 m/s, the tension in the string is the centripetal force which is T = mv²/r

= 8 kg × (3 m/s)²/2 m

= 4 kg × 9 m/s²

= 36 N

A research team developed a robot named Ellie. Ellie ran 1,000 meters for 200 seconds from the research building, rested for 100
Verizon [17]

Answer:

1. Running velocity (5 m/s)

2. Resting velocity (0 m/s)

3. Walking velocity (-1 m/s)

1. Running speed (5 m/s)

2. Walking speed (1 m/s)

3. Resting speed (0 m/s)

Explanation:

Attached you will find the plot of position vs time of Ellie´s movement.

The velocity is the displacement of the object over time relative to the system of reference. The speed, in change, is the traveled distance over time in disregard of the system of reference.

So, the velocity is calculated as follows:

v = Δx / Δt

where

Δx = final position - initial position

Δt = elapsed time

1) The average velocity of Ellie while running is:

v = 1000 m - 0 m / 200 s = 5 m/s

While resting:

v = 0 m - 0 m / 100 s = 0 m/s

And while walking back:

v = 0 m - 1000 m / 1000 s = - 1 m/s

Note that in this last case, the initial position is 1000 m because Ellie is 1000 m from the origin of the system of reference when she walks back. The final position will be the origin of the system of reference, 0 m.

Comparing with the graphic, the velocity is the slope of the function position(t).

Then:

1. Running velocity (5 m/s)

2. Resting velocity (0 m/s)

3. Walking velocity (-1 m/s)

2) The speed is the distance traveled over time:

Running speed = 1000 m / 200 s = 5m /s

Resting speed = 0 m / 100 s = 0 m/s

Walking speed = 1000 m/ 1000 s = 1 m/s

Then:

1. Running speed (5 m/s)

2. Walking speed (1 m/s)

3. Resting speed (0 m/s)

On a dry day, just after washing your hair to remove natural oils and drying it thoroughly, run a plastic comb through it. Small
Hitman42 [59]
When the surface of the comb rubs on your hair, the comb is electrically charged. When the comb comes close to the paper, the charge on the comb causes charge separation on the paper bits. Since paper is neutral, positive and negative charges are equivalent. The charge on the comb charges the area of the bit of paper nearest the comb to the opposite. Thus, the bits of paper become attracted to the comb.

you are piloting a small plane and you want to reach an airport 450 km due south in 3.0 h a wind is blowing from the west 50.0 k
alex41 [277]

Answer:

You should choose airspeed 158.11 km/h at 18.4° west of south

Explanation:

The distance to the air port is 450 km due to south

You should to reach the airport in 3 hours

→ Velocity = distance ÷ time

→ Distance = 450 km , time = 3 hours

→ The velocity of your plane = 450 ÷ 3 = 150 km/h due to south

A wind is blowing from west 50 km/h

We need to know what heading and airspeed you should choose to

reach your destination

At first we must find the resultant velocity of your plane and the wind

The south and west are perpendicular, then the resultant velocity is

→ v_{R}=\sqrt{(v_{p})^{2}+(v_{w})^{2}}

→ v_{p}=150 km/h ,  v_{w}=50 km/h

→ v_{R}=\sqrt{(150)^{2}+(50)^{2}}=158.11 km/h

To cancel the velocity of the wind, the pilot should maintain the velocity

of the plane at 158.11 km/h

The direction of the velocity is the angle between the resultant velocity

and the vertical (south)

→ The direction of the velocity is tan^{-1}\frac{50}{150}=18.4°

The direction of the velocity is 18.4° west of south

<em>You should choose airspeed 158.11 km/h at 18.4° west of south</em>
