Assume that a vaulter is able to carry a vaulting pole while running as fast as Carl Lewis in his world record 100-m dash (aroun

d 12 m/s). Also assume that all of the vaulter’s kinetic energy is transformed into gravitational potential energy. What vaulting height could that person attain?

A toy gun uses a spring to project a 4.5-g soft rubber sphere horizontally. The spring constant is 8.0 N/m, the barrel of the gu
marishachu [46]

Answer:

1.93 m/s

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Mass = 4.5g = 0.0045kg

Spring constant = 8.0 N/m

Length of barrel = 13 cm = 0.013m

Frictional force = 0.035N

Compression = 5.8 cm = 0.058m

First, we find the P. E. stored in the spring:

P. E. = ½*k*x²

P. E. = ½ * 8 * 0.058² = 0.013J

Then, we find the work done by the frictional force while the sphere is leaving the barrel of the gun:

Work = Force * distance

The distance here is the length of the barrel.

Work = 0.035 * 0.13 = 0.0046 J

The kinetic energy of the sphere can now be found:

K. E. = P. E. - Work done

K. E. = 0.013 - 0.0046 = 0.0084J

We can now find the speed using the formula for K. E.:

K. E. = ½*m*v²

0.0084 = ½ * 0.0045 * v²

v² = 0.0084/0.00255 = 3.733

=> v = 1.93 m/s

While Bob is demonstrating the gravitational force on falling objects to his class, he drops an 1.0 lb bag of feathers from the
BartSMP [9]

In the experiment of free fall bob released a bag of mass 1 lb

so here we can say that initial speed of the bag is Zero

time taken by the bag to free fall is given as

t = 1.5 s

also the acceleration of free fall is given as

a = 9.8 m/s^2

now we will use kinematics equation here for finding the distance of free fall

d = v_i * t + \frac{1}{2} at^2

d = 0 + \frac{1}{2}*9.8* 1.5^2

d = 4.9 * 2.25

d = 11.025 m

so the bag will fall down by total distance of 11.025 m from its initial released position.

A merchant in Katmandu sells you a solid gold 1.00-kg statue for a very reasonable price. When you get home, you wonder whether
White raven [17]

Answer:

a) 51.8 cm³

b) kg/m³ is a dimension of density (mass/volume). The regular unitys for volume are m³, cm³, L, gallons.

Explanation:

a) The density of pure gold is 19.3 g/cm³. When put in water, the piece of gold will occupy a volume, so that the volume of water will be displaced. To know the volume, we must divide the mass for the density (mass must be in grams because of the units of the density)

V = 1000/19.3

V = 51.8 cm³
