Answer:

0\; \rm m \cdot s^{-1}.

Explanation:

In a projectile motion, the kinetic energy (KE) of the projectile is converted to gravitational potential energy (GPE) and then from GPE back to KE.

In this example, the spring toy is the projectile. Refer to the diagram attached.

  • The spring toy started with a velocity of 12\; \rm m\cdot s^{-1}, meaning that its initial KE is non-zero.
  • On the way up, the KE of this spring toy gets converted to GPE.
  • At the top of the trajectory, the GPE of this toy is maximized while its KE is minimized (zero).
  • As the toy returns to the ground, the GPE of this toy gets converted back to KE.
  • The GPE of this toy is zero when the toy is on the ground.

In other words, the kinetic energy (KE) of this toy would be 0 when it is at the top of the trajectory and GPE is maximized.

Since the KE of this toy at the top of the trajectory would be 0, the velocity of this toy at that moment would also be 0\!.

Two substances, M and N, have specific heats c and 2c. if heats Q and 4Q are supɔlied to Mand N, respectively, their changes in
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

If the mass of B is m and the temperature change is the same, the mass of B will be 2m.

Explanation:

Q = mcT

T = mc/Q

M = 4Q/2cT........... (1)

T = Q/mc

Plug this in equation 1.

M = 4Q/(2c × Q/mc)  = 4Q ÷ 2Q/m  = 4Q × m/2Q = 2m

A sample of metallic frewium weighs 185N on a spring scale in air. When immersed in pure water, the frewium pulls on the scale w
balu736 [363]

Wow !  This one could have some twists and turns in it.
Fasten your seat belt.  It's going to be a boompy ride.

-- The buoyant force is precisely the missing <em>30N</em> .

--  In order to calculate the density of the frewium sample, we need to know
its mass and its volume.  Then, density = mass/volume .

-- From the weight of the sample in air, we can closely calculate its mass.

   Weight = (mass) x (gravity)
   185N = (mass) x (9.81 m/s²)
   Mass = (185N) / (9.81 m/s²) = <u>18.858 kilograms of frewium</u> 

-- For its volume, we need to calculate the volume of the displaced water.

The buoyant force is equal to the weight of displaced water, and the
density of water is about 1 gram per cm³.  So the volume of the
displaced water (in cm³) is the same as the number of grams in it.

The weight of the displaced water is 30N, and weight = (mass) (gravity).

           30N = (mass of the displaced water) x (9.81 m/s²)

           Mass = (30N) / (9.81 m/s²) = 3.058 kilograms

           Volume of displaced water = <u>3,058 cm³</u>

Finally, density of the frewium sample = (mass)/(volume)

      Density = (18,858 grams) / (3,058 cm³) = <em>6.167 gm/cm³</em> (rounded)

================================================

I'm thinking that this must  be the hard way to do it,
because I noticed that

       (weight in air) / (buoyant force) =  185N / 30N = <u>6.1666...</u>

So apparently . . .

        (density of a sample) / (density of water) =

                                  (weight of the sample in air) / (buoyant force in water) .

I never knew that, but it's a good factoid to keep in my tool-box.

A rock is dropped from a bridge to the water below. It takes 2.40 s for the rock to hit the water (a) find the speed in m/s of t
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer: I think Its the Height is 11.76 Meters (38.582677 Feet) between the bridge and the ground

Explanation: Supposing that where not counting air resistance in the equation, the equation D = ut+\frac{1}{2}  at^{2} states that 1/2 multiplied by earths gravitational acceleration multiplied by the amount of time to reach the bottom: 2.4 seconds equals 11.76 meters of height between the bridge and the ground.
