Answer:

1.66 m/s

Explanation:

Work or kinetic energy = $\frac{1}{2} mv^{2}$

$4864=\frac{1}{2} (3540)v^{2}$

v = 1.66 m/s

gregori [183]

One simple way to losing weight is by calorie counting. Peter can go to his nutritionist and learn just how much calories he can have as intake per day to lose weight. The nutrition label on any food item lists the calories and their serving sizes. This can be used to keep track of how much calories Peter has taken each day, so as to not go over his daily limit.

what is the mass of vertical column of air that exerts pressure of 1 atm over a10m by 10m square surface

Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

$m=1.01\times 10^6\ kg$

Explanation:

Given that,

Pressure, P = 1 atm = 101325 Pa

Area of the square surface, A = 10² = 100 m²

We need to find the mass of vertical column of air. We know that, pressure is equal to the force acting per unit area. So,

$P=\dfrac{mg}{A}\\\\m=\dfrac{PA}{g}\\\\m=\dfrac{101325\times 10^2}{10}\\\\m=1.01\times 10^6\ kg$

So, the required mass of the vertical column of air is $1.01\times 10^6\ kg$ .

Where coastal rock is softer, waves erode the land faster

prohojiy [21]

Answer:

Headlands and bays are created where there are bands of hard and soft rock which meet the coastline at right angles. Softer rock is eroded more quickly and erodes backwards to form bays (which may have beaches). The harder rocks are more resistant to erosion and jut out into the sea to form exposed headlands

Body 1 has a mass m, and its moving in a circle with a radius r at a speed v. It has a centripetal force. F acting on it. If bod

cluponka [151]

Answer:

The centripetal force on body 2 is 8 times of the centripetal force in body 1.

Explanation:

Body 1 has a mass m, and its moving in a circle with a radius r at a speed v. The centripetal force acting on it is given by :

$F=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}$

Body 2 has a mass 2m and its moving in a circle of radius 4r at a speed 4v. The centripetal force on body 2 is :

$F'=\dfrac{2m\times (4v)^2}{4r}\\\\F'=\dfrac{2m\times 16v^2}{4r}\\\\F'=8\dfrac{mv^2}{r}\\\\F'=8F$

So, the centripetal force on body 2 is 8 times of the centripetal force in body 1.

The weight of a standard object defined as having a mass of exactly 2.9 kg is measured to be 28.449 n. in the same laboratory, a

PtichkaEL [24]

Mass of the object m = 2.9 kg
Force F1 = 28.449 N
F1 = m1 x a => a = F / m => 28.449 / 2.9 => a = 9.81, which is gravitational acceleration.
In the same lab, a = g = 9.81, second object F2 = 48.7N = m2 x a
m2 = F2 / a => 48.7 / 9.81 => m2 = 4.96 kg
Mass of the second object m2 = 4.96 kg
