Answer:

\huge\boxed{\sf P.E. = 10 kJ}

Explanation:

<u>Given Data:</u>

Mass = m = 50 kg

Height = h = 20 m

Acceleration due to gravity = g = 10 m/s²

<u>Required:</u>

Potential Energy = P.E. = ?

<u>Formula:</u>

P.E. = mgh

<u>Solution:</u>

P.E. = (50)(20)(10)

P.E. = 10,000 Joules

P.E. = 10 * 10³ Joules (10³ = Kilo)

P.E. = 10 kJ

givi [52]

Answer:

2.5m/s^2

Explanation:

Step one:

given

distance = 20meters

time = 2 seconds

initial velocity u= 0m/s

let us solve for the final velocity

velocity = distance/time

velocity= 20/2

velocity= 10m/s

v^2=u^2+2as\\\\10^2=0^2+2*a*20\\\\100=40a

divide both sides by 40

a= 100/40\\\\a=10/4\\\\a= 5/2\\\\a= 2.5m/s^2

) a 1.0 kilogram laboratory cart moving with a velocity of 0.50 meter per second due east collides with and sticks to a similar
ZanzabumX [31]
Momentum would be the same before and after the collision
 Before the collision:
 Momentum of the single cart: 1 * 0.50 = 0.50
 After the collision
 velocity = 0.25m / s
 1 * 0.25 + 1 * 0.25 =
 0.25 * (1 + 1) =
 0.25 * 2 =
 0.50
 Now new momentum will be 0.5

german

Answer:

 F = 1.047 10⁻² N

Explanation:

Let's use kinematics to find the angular acceleration

             w = w₀ + α t

as for rest w₀ = 0

             w = α t

             α = w / t

let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

              w = 1000 rev / min (2π rad/ 1 rev) (1 min/ 60s) = 104.72 rad / s

              m = 1.00 g (1 kg / 1000 g) = 1,000 10⁻³ kg

              r = 10.0 cm (1 m / 100 cm) = 0.100 m

let's calculate

              α = 104.72 / 1

              α = 104.72 rad / s²

angular and linear variables are related

               a = α  r

               a = 104.72 0.100

               a = 10.47 m / s²

finally we substitute in Newton's second law

               F = 1 10⁻³ 10.47

               F = 1.047 10⁻² N

A diver springs upward from a board that is 2.70 m above the water. At the instant she contacts the water her speed is 10.9 m/s
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

vo=5.87m/s

Explanation:

Hello! In this problem we have a uniformly varied rectilinear movement.

Taking into account the data:

α =69.2

vf = 10m / s

h=2.7m

g=9.8m/s2

We know we want to know the speed on the y axis.

We calculate vfy

vfy = 10m / s * (sen69.2) = 9.35m / s

We can use the following equation.

vf^{2} =vo^{2}+2*g*h\\

We clear the vo (initial speed)

vo=\sqrt{vf^{2}-2*g*h }

v0=\sqrt{(9.35m/s)^{2}-2*9.8m/s^{2} *2.7m}

vo=5.87m/s
