How do mass and speed affect kinetic energy?

Lunna [17]

The mass affects the kinetic energy because the more the mass the more energy is given to the object and the speed<span> affects by making it go faster and longer, so whenever speed goes up so does energy.</span>

In a 350-m race, runner A starts from rest and accelerates at 1.6 m/s^2 for the first 30 m and then runs at constant speed. Runn

kifflom [539]

Answer:

B can take 0.64 sec for the longest nap .

Explanation:

Given that,

Total distance = 350 m

Acceleration of A = 1.6 m/s²

Distance = 30 m

Acceleration of B = 2.0 m/s²

We need to calculate the time for A

Using equation of motion

$s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at_{A}^2$

Put the value in the equation

$30=0+\dfrac{1}{2}\times1.6\times t_{A}^2$

$t_{A}=\sqrt{\dfrac{30\times2}{1.6}}$

$t_{A}=6.12\ sec$

We need to calculate the time for B

Using equation of motion

$s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at_{B}^2$

Put the value in the equation

$30=0+\dfrac{1}{2}\times2.0\times t_{B}^2$

$t_{B}=\sqrt{\dfrac{30\times2}{2.0}}$

$t_{B}=5.48\ sec$

We need to calculate the time for longest nap

Using formula for difference of time

$t'=t_{A}-t_{B}$

$t'=6.12-5.48$

$t'=0.64\ s$

Hence, B can take 0.64 sec for the longest nap .

Water from a vertical pipe emerges as a 10-cm-diameter cylinder and falls straight down 7.5 m into a bucket. The water exits the

cupoosta [38]

The diameter of the column of the water as it hits the bucket is 4.04 cm

The equation of continuity occurs in the fluid system and it asserts that the inflow and the outflow of the volume rate at the inlet and at the outlet of the system are equal.

By using the kinematics equation to determine the speed of the water in the bucket and applying the equation of continuity to estimate the diameter of the column, we have the following;

Using the kinematics equation:

$\mathbf{v_f ^2 = v_i^2 + 2gh}$

$\mathbf{v_f ^2 =(2.0)^2 + 2\times 9.8 \times 7.5}$

$\mathbf{v_f ^2 =151 m/s}$

$\mathbf{v_f =\sqrt{151 m/s}}$

$\mathbf{v_f =12.29 \ m/s}$

From the equation of continuity:

$\mathbf{A_iV_i = A_fV_f}$

$\mathbf{\pi r^2_iV_i = \pi r^2_fV_f}$

$\mathbf{ r^2_iV_i = r^2_fV_f}$

$\mathbf{ (\dfrac{10}{2})^2\times 2.0 = r_f^2 \times 12.29}$

$\mathbf{ 50 = 12.29 \times r_f^2}$

$\mathbf{ r_f= \sqrt{\dfrac{50}{12.29} }}$

$\mathbf{ V_f= 2.02 \ cm }$

Since diameter = 2r;

∴

The diameter of the column of the water is:

= 2(2.02) cm

= 4.04 cm
