Answer:

v= 17.15 m/s

Explanation:

mass of the book=0.1 Kg

height above ground, h= 15 m

Using conservation of energy

Potential energy is converted into kinetic energy

mgh = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

v=\sqrt{2gh}

v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 15}

v=\sqrt{294}

v= 17.15 m/s

Hence, the book will hit the ground at the speed of 17.15 m/s.

A 1.5 kg bird is gliding at a height of 12 m with a speed of 3.8m/s. What is the kinetic energy of the bird, to the nearest joul
Georgia [21]

A 1.5 kg bird is gliding at a height of 12 m with a speed of 3.8m/s. The kinetic energy of the bird is 10.83 joules.

Explanation:

Kinetic energy can be defined as,The kinetic energy (KE) of an object is the energy that the object possesses due to its motion.

The Kinetic energy can be calculated by using formula,

Kinetic Energy: KE = 1/2 (mv 2)

Where, m = Mass, v = Velocity.

Here in this case the bird mass is 1.5kg and is gliding with velocity 3.8m/s

hence, KE= 1/2*(1.5)×(3.8)^2

                   =0.5×1.5×3.8×3.8

                   =10.83Joules

A bicycle pump contains 20 cm3 of air at a pressure of 100 kPa. The air is then pumped in a tyre of volume 100 cm3. Calculate th
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

The pressure of the air in the tyre is 20 kPa

Explanation:

The parameters for the bicycle pump and tyre are;

The volume of air contained in the bicycle pump, V₁ = 20 cm³

The pressure of the air contained in the bicycle pump, P₁ = 100 kPa

The volume (available) of the tyre, where the air is pumped, V₂ = 100 cm³

Let P₂ represent the pressure in the tyre after the air is pumped

By Boyle's law, we have that at constant temperature, the volume of a given mass of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure;

Mathematically, Boyle's law gives the following equation;

P₁ × V₁ = P₂ × V₂

∴ P₂ = (P₁ × V₁)/V₂

Substituting the known values gives;

P₂ = (100 kPa × 20 cm³)/(100 cm³)

∴ P₂ = 100 kPa × 1/5 = 20 kPa

P₂ = 20 kPa

The pressure of the air in the tyre = P₂ = 20 kPa.
