The total yearly world consumption of energy is approximately 4.0 × 1020 J. How much mass would have to be completely converted

into energy to provide this amount of energy?

Answer:

m = 4.4 × 10³ kg

Explanation:

Given that:

The total yearly energy is 4.0 × 10²⁰ J

The amount of mass that provides this energy can be determined by using the formula:

E = mc²

where;

c = speed of light in free space = (3 × 10⁸)

4.0 × 10²⁰ = m × (3 × 10⁸)²

m = \dfrac{4.0 \times 10^{20} }{(3\times 10^8)^2}

m = 4.4 × 10³ kg

Assume that when you stretch your torso vertically as much as you can, your center of mass is 1.0 m above the floor. The maximum
Elenna [48]

1) 0.77 m

2) 0.23 m

Explanation:

1)

Here we want to find the time elapsed for crouching in order to jump and reach a height of 2.0 m above the floor, starting from 1.0 m above the floor.

First of all, we start by calculating the speed required to jump up to a height of 2.0 m. Since the total energy is conserved, the initial kinetic energy is converted into gravitational potential energy, so:

\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = mgh

where

m is the mass of the man

v is the speed after jumping

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

h = 2.0 - 1.0 = 1.0 m is the change in height

Solving for v,

v=\sqrt{2gh}=\sqrt{2(9.8)(1.0)}=4.43 m/s

In the acceleration phase, we know that the initial velocity is

u=0

And the force exerted on the floor is 2.3 times the gravitational force, so

F=2.3 mg

This means the net force on you is

F_{net} = F-mg=2.3mg-mg=1.3 mg

because we have to consider the force of gravity acting downward.

So the acceleration of the man is

a=\frac{F_{net}}{m}=\frac{1.3mg}{m}=1.3g

Now we can use the  following suvat equation to find the displacement in the acceleration phase, which is how low the man has to crouch in order to jump:

v^2-u^2=2as

where s is the quantity we want to find. Solving for s,

s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}=\frac{4.43^2-0}{2(1.3g)}=0.77 m

2)

At the beginning, we are told that the height of the center of mass above the floor is

h = 1.0 m

During the acceleration phase and the crouch, the height of the center of mass of the body decreases by

\Delta h = -0.77 m

This means that the lowest point reached by the center of mass above the floor during the crouch is

h'=h+\Delta h = 1.0 - 0.77 = 0.23 m

This value seems unpractical, since it is not really easy to crouch until having the center of mass 0.23 m above the ground.

You throw a tennis ball straight up (neglect air resistance). It takes 7.0 seconds to go up and then return to your hand. How fa
sattari [20]

Answer:

Velocity of throwing = 34.335 m/s

Explanation:

Time taken by the tennis ball to reach maximum height, t = 0.5 x 7 = 3.5 seconds.

Let the initial velocity be u, we have acceleration due to gravity, a = -9.81 m/s² and final velocity = 0 m/s

Equation of motion result we have v = u + at

Substituting

             0 = u - 9.81 x 3.5

             u = 34.335 m/s

Velocity of throwing = 34.335 m/s
