Answer:

At the top

K.E = 0

P.E = 981 J

Mechanical energy is conserved

P.E is maximum

K.E = 0

At the middle

K.E = 981 J

P.E = 0

Mechanical energy is conserved

K.E is maximum

P.E = 0

At the bottom

K.E = 0

P.E = 981 J

Mechanical energy is conserved

K.E = 0

P.E is maximum

Explanation:

Given that

M= 5kg

H = 20 m

t = 7 s

According to conservation of energy,

At the top

K.E = 0

P.E = mgh

P.E = 5 × 9.81 × 20

P.E = 981 J

Mechanical energy is conserved

P.E is maximum

K.E = 0

At the middle

K.E = 981 J

P.E = 0

Mechanical energy is conserved

K.E is maximum

P.E = 0

At the bottom

K.E = 0

P.E = 981 J

Mechanical energy is conserved

K.E = 0

P.E is maximum

Given that

An overhead door is guided by wheels at a and b that roll in horizontal and vertical tracks. when θ = 40°, the velocity of wheel
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

I think the situation is modeled by the scenario in the attached image. Some specific values seem to be missing (like the height of door d)...

The door forms a right triangles that satisfies

\tan\theta=\dfrac ab\implies\sec^2\theta\dfrac{\mathrm d\theta}{\mathrm dt}=\dfrac{b\frac{\mathrm da}{\mathrm dt}-a\frac{\mathrm db}{\mathrm dt}}{b^2}

We also have

\tan\theta=\dfrac ab\implies\cos\theta=\dfrac bd

so if you happen to know the height of the door, you can solve for b and a.

d is fixed, so

a^2+b^2=d^2\implies2a\dfrac{\mathrm da}{\mathrm dt}+2b\dfrac{\mathrm db}{\mathrm dt}=0\implies\dfrac{\mathrm da}{\mathrm dt}=-\dfrac ba\dfrac{\mathrm db}{\mathrm dt}

We can solve for the angular velocity \dfrac{\mathrm d\theta}{\mathrm dt}:

\dfrac{\mathrm d\theta}{\mathrm dt}=\cos^2\theta\dfrac{b\left(-\frac ba\frac{\mathrm db}{\mathrm dt}\right)-a\frac{\mathrm db}{\mathrm dt}}{b^2}=-\dfrac1a\dfrac{\mathrm db}{\mathrm dt}

At the point when \theta=40^\circ and \dfrac{\mathrm db}{\mathrm dt}=1.8 ft/s, we get

\dfrac{\mathrm d\theta}{\mathrm dt}=-\dfrac{1.8}a\dfrac{\rm deg}{\rm s}=-\dfrac{1.8}{d\sin40^\circ}\dfrac{\rm deg}{\rm s}

A clam of mass 0.12 kg dropped by a seagull takes 3.0 s to hit the ground. [Neglect friction.]
inna [77]
This is a defective, misleading question, and should never be asked in a Physics class.

There is no such thing as the force due to the impact.

If you know how long it takes the clam to stop once it begins to hit the dirt,
then you can calculate the impulse transferred to it, and tease a force out
of that.  But the question doesn't give us the time. 

It depends on the material of the surface.  Was the clam dropped onto dirt ? 
Into a dumpster ?  Onto grass ?  Concrete ?  Styrofoam ?  Mud ?  The answer
is different in each case, and we still need to know the short length of time
AFTER it first encountered whatever surface brought it to rest.

I would kick this question back to the Physics teacher.  It's meaningless,
and the longer you try to work on it, the more nonsense you'll plant into
your head that'll need to be dug out later.

In what unit do we measure force? in physics​
Nady [450]

Answer:

Newton

Explanation:

The SI unit of force is the newton, symbol N. The base units relevant to force are: The metre, unit of length — symbol m. The kilogram, unit of mass — symbol kg.

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

The answer is 8 hours.

Explanation:

M : H

50 : 1

400 : X

400 * 1 = 50 x

400 / 50 = 8
