marin [14]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

a reference point allows you to determine the motion of an object :)

example: when your in a car and u look out the window and your moving fast than the car next to you. It seems that way because the car next to you is actually moving much slower.

A wad of clay of mass m1 = 0.49 kg with an initial horizontal velocity v1 = 1.89 m/s hits and adheres to the massless rigid bar
notka56 [123]

Answer:

<h2>The angular velocity just after collision is given as</h2><h2>\omega = 0.23 rad/s</h2><h2>At the time of collision the hinge point will exert net external force on it so linear momentum is not conserved</h2>

Explanation:

As per given figure we know that there is no external torque about hinge point on the system of given mass

So here we will have

L_i = L_f

now we can say

m_1v_1\frac{L}{2} = (m_2L^2 + m_1(\frac{L}{2})^2)\omega

so we will have

0.49(1.89)(0.45) = (2.13(0.90)^2 + 0.49(0.45)^2)\omega

\omega = 0.23 rad/s

Linear momentum of the system is not conserved because at the time of collision the hinge point will exert net external force on the system of mass

So we can use angular momentum conservation about the hinge point

An airplane accelerates from rest to its required takeoff speed with an acceleration 5.0 m/s^2 after travelling on the runway a
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

.75 km = 750 m

acceleration a = 5 m/s²

distance s = 750 m

initial velocity u = 0

Final velocity v = ?

v² = u² + 2as

v² = 0 + 2 x 5 x 750

v = 86.60 m /s.

The gravitational potential energy of an object is equal to its weight multiplied by its
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

Height above a surface

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is the energy which an object possesses due to its position above a surface.

It is also the amount of work a force has to do in order to bring an object from a particular position to a point of reference.

It is given mathematically as:

P. E. = m*g*h

where m = mass of the body

g = acceleration due to gravity

h = height above a surface

m*g represents the weight of the object.

Hence, Gravitational potential energy is the product of an object's weight and its height above a surface/reference point.

A(n) 96.1 g ball is dropped from a height of 59.1 cm above a spring of negligible mass.The ball compresses the spring to a maxim
Serhud [2]

Answer:

Explanation:

Mass of ball Is m=96.1g=0.0961kg

Height above spring is 59.1cm

L=0.591m

Extension of the spring is 4.75403cm

e=0.0475403m

Then the distance the ball traveled is H=L+e

H=0.591+0.0475403

H=0.6385403m

Then, the potential energy of the ball is given as

P.E=mgh

P.E=0.0961×9.81×0.6385403

P.E=0.602J

From conservation of energy, energy cannot be created nor destroy but can be transferred from one form to another

Then, the P.E is transferred to the work done by the spring

Then, Work done by spring is given as

W=½ke²

W=P.E=½×k×0.0475403²

0.602=½×k×0.0475403²

k=0.602×2/0.0475403²

k=532.72N/m

The spring constant is 532.72 N/m

An object moves 360 km in 2 hours calculate its speed into km/h and m/s​
erik [133]

Explanation:

Speed= Distance / time

Speed= 360/2

= 180 km/h

Speed= 180 × 5/18

= 50 m/s
