a body starts from rest with a uniform acceleration of 2m s-2 find the distance covered by the body in 2s

1 answer:

8 0

Finding acceleration= final velocity-initial velocity/ time taken (or A= V-U/T)

Final speed= 2m
Initial speed= 0m
Time taken= 2 seconds

2-0/2 so it’ll be 1m/s

2-0=0
2/2=

A small meteorite with mass of 1 g strikes the outer wall of a communication satellite with a speed of 2Okm/s (relative to the s

strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

The energy coverted to heat is 200 kilojoules.

Explanation:

GIven the absence of external forces exerted both on the small meteorite and on the communication satellite, the Principle of Linear Momentum is considered and let suppose that collision is completely inelastic and that satellite is initially at rest. Hence, the expression for the satellite-meteorite system:

$m_{M}\cdot v_{M} + m_{S}\cdot v_{S} = (m_{M}+m_{S})\cdot v$

Where:

$m_{M}$ , $m_{S}$ - Masses of the small meteorite and the communication satellite, measured in kilograms.

$v_{M}$ , $v_{S}$ - Speeds of the small meteorite and the communication satellite, measured in meters per second.

$v$ - Final speed of the satellite-meteorite system, measured in meters per second.

The final speed of the satellite-meteorite system is cleared:

$v = \frac{m_{M}\cdot v_{M}+m_{S}\cdot v_{S}}{m_{M}+m_{S}}$

If $m_{M} = 1\times 10^{-3}\,kg$ , $m_{S} = 200\,kg$ , $v_{M} = 20000\,\frac{m}{s}$ and $v_{S} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}$ , the final speed is now calculated:

$v = \frac{(1\times 10^{-3}\,kg)\cdot \left(20000\,\frac{m}{s} \right)+(200\,kg)\cdot \left(0\,\frac{m}{s} \right)}{1\times 10^{-3}\,kg+200\,kg}$

$v = 0.1\,\frac{m}{s}$

Which means that the new system remains stationary and all mechanical energy from meteorite is dissipated in the form of heat. According to the Principle of Energy Conservation and the Work-Energy Theorem, the change in the kinetic energy is equal to the dissipated energy in the form of heat:

$K_{S} + K_{M} - K - Q_{disp} = 0$

$Q_{disp} = K_{S}+K_{M}-K$

Where:

$K_{S}$ , $K_{M}$ - Initial translational kinetic energies of the communication satellite and small meteorite, measured in joules.

$K$ - Kinetic energy of the satellite-meteorite system, measured in joules.

$Q_{disp}$ - Dissipated heat, measured in joules.

The previous expression is expanded by using the definition for the translational kinetic energy:

$Q_{disp} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot [m_{M}\cdot v_{M}^{2}+m_{S}\cdot v_{S}^{2}-(m_{M}+m_{S})\cdot v^{2}]$

Given that $m_{M} = 1\times 10^{-3}\,kg$ , $m_{S} = 200\,kg$ , $v_{M} = 20000\,\frac{m}{s}$ , $v_{S} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}$ and $v = 0.1\,\frac{m}{s}$ , the dissipated heat is:

$Q_{disp} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot \left[(1\times 10^{-3}\,kg)\cdot \left(20000\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}+(200\,kg)\cdot \left(0\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}-(200.001\,kg)\cdot \left(0.001\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}\right]$ $Q_{disp} = 200000\,J$

$Q_{disp} = 200\,kJ$

The energy coverted to heat is 200 kilojoules.

Winds are named based on different factors. How are winds usually named?

eduard

Winds are named based on which compass direction the wind is blowing. For example some common ones are NE or N or SE or SW. NE stands for Northeast, N for North, SE for South East and SW for Southwest.

svetoff [14.1K]

1)Kenetic Energy is defined as energy which a body possesses by virtue of being in motion. 2)KE) is KE = 0.5 x mv2. Here m stands for mass, the measure of how much matter is in an object, and v stands for the velocity of the object, or the rate at which the object changes its position..

And I hope this helped :)
