Answer:

54 km/hr

Explanation:

m/s to km/hr => 18/5

15 m/s to km/hr => 15 x 18/5 =>3 x 18 => 54km/hr

Ashkon throws a basketball across the court to his teammate. The ball has 57 J of potential energy and 61 J of kinetic energy. W

Gwar [14]

The total mechanical energy of the ball is the sum of its potential energy U and its kinetic energy K, therefore:
$E=U+K=57 J+61 J=118 J$
so, the total mechanical energy of the basketball is 118 J.

An automobile accelerates 1.77 m/s2 over 6.00 s to reach freeway speed at the end of an

GaryK [48]

Answer:

Startinfg speed is 13.82 m/s

Explanation:

Use equation for realtion between start and final speed :

Vf=Vs+a*t

Vf-final speed

Vs-start speed

Vf=24.44m/s

a=1.77m/s²(acceleration)

t=6.00s(Time)

Vf=Vs+a*t

Vs=a*t-Vf

Vs=1.77m/s²*6s-24.44m/s

Vs=-13.82m/s

An ideal spring hangs from the ceiling. A 1.25-kg mass is hung from the spring. After all vibrations have died away, the spring

ch4aika [34]

The kinetic energy of the mass at the instant it passes back through its equilibrium position is about 1.20 J

Let's recall Elastic Potential Energy formula as follows:

$\boxed{E_p = \frac{1}{2}k x^2}$

where:

<em>Ep = elastic potential energy ( J )</em>

<em>k = spring constant ( N/m )</em>

<em>x = spring extension ( compression ) ( m )</em>

Let us now tackle the problem!

$\texttt{ }$

<u>Given:</u>

mass of object = m = 1.25 kg

initial extension = x = 0.0275 m

final extension = x' = 0.0735 - 0.0275 = 0.0460 m

<u>Asked:</u>

kinetic energy = Ek = ?

<u>Solution:</u>

<em>Firstly , we will calculate the spring constant by using </em><em>Hooke's Law</em><em> as follows:</em>

$F = k x$

$mg = k x$

$k = mg \div x$

$k = 1.25(9.8) \div 0.0275$

$k = 445 \frac{5}{11} \texttt{ N/m}$

$\texttt{ }$

<em>Next , we will use </em><em>Conservation of Energy</em><em> formula to solve this problem:</em>

$Ep_1 + Ek_1 = Ep_2 + Ek_2$

$\frac{1}{2}k (x')^2 + mgh + 0 = \frac{1}{2}k x^2 + Ek$

$Ek = \frac{1}{2}k (x')^2 + mgh - \frac{1}{2}k x^2$

$Ek = \frac{1}{2}k ( (x')^2 - x^2 ) + mgh$

$Ek = \frac{1}{2}(445 \frac{5}{11}) ( 0.0460^2 - 0.0275^2 ) + 1.25(9.8)(0.0735)$

$\boxed {Ek \approx 1.20 \texttt{ J}}$
