Answer:

The kinetic energy of the cell phone is 9J

Explanation:

The kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of motion.

The kinetic energy is expressed as

KE= 1/2m(v)²

Given data

Mass of cell phone m= 80g--to kg=80/1000= 0.08kg

Velocity of cell phone v= 15m/s

Substituting our given data we have

KE= 1/2*0.08(15)²

KE= (0.08*225)/2

KE=18/2

KE= 9J

A tourist being chased by an angry bear is running in a straight line toward his car at a speed of 3.9 m/s. The car is a distanc

sammy [17]

If it takes $t$ seconds to reach the car, then the distance $d$ is $3.9t$ .

The bear's distance from the tourist's starting point is
$6t-23$

For maximum $d$ , we set the equations equal to each other:
$3.9t=6t-23$
$\Rightarrow -2.1t=-23$
$\Rightarrow t=\frac{23}{2.1}$
so the distance is
$d=3.9(\frac{23}{2.1})\approx42.741\ m$

Answer:

The momentum is 1.94 kg m/s.

Explanation:

To solve this problem we equate the potential energy of the spring with the kinetic energy of the ball.

The potential energy $U$ of the compressed spring is given by
