Answer:

11060M  Joules, where M is the mass of the diver in kg

Explanation:

Mass of the skydiver missing, we're assuming it's M.

It's total energy is the sum of the contribution of his kinetic energy (K)- since he's moving at 50 m/s, and it's potential energy (U), since he's subject to earth gravity.

Energy is the sum of the two, so E = K+U= \frac 12 M v^2 + Mgh = M (\frac 12 \cdot 50^2 + 9.81\cdot 1000) = M ( 1250 + 9810) = 11060\cdot M

Answer:

Usually, the relationship between mass and weight on Earth is highly proportional; objects that are a hundred times more massive than a one-liter bottle of soda almost always weigh a hundred times more—approximately 1,000 newtons, which is the weight one would expect on Earth from an object with a mass slightly greater ...

(a) If a proton with a kinetic energy of 6.2 MeV is traveling in a particle accelerator in a circular orbit with a radius of 0.5
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

The fraction of its energy that it radiates every second is 3.02\times10^{-11}.

Explanation:

Suppose Electromagnetic radiation is emitted by accelerating charges. The rate at which energy is emitted from an accelerating charge that has charge q and acceleration a is given by

\dfrac{dE}{dt}=\dfrac{q^2a^2}{6\pi\epsilon_{0}c^3}

Given that,

Kinetic energy = 6.2 MeV

Radius = 0.500 m

We need to calculate the acceleration

Using formula of acceleration

a=\dfrac{v^2}{r}

Put the value into the formula

a=\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2}{\dfrac{1}{2}mr}

Put the value into the formula

a=\dfrac{6.2\times10^{6}\times1.6\times10^{-19}}{\dfrac{1}{2}\times1.67\times10^{-27}\times0.51}

a=2.32\times10^{15}\ m/s^2

We need to calculate the rate at which it emits energy because of its acceleration is

\dfrac{dE}{dt}=\dfrac{q^2a^2}{6\pi\epsilon_{0}c^3}

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{dE}{dt}=\dfrac{(1.6\times10^{-19})^2\times(2.3\times10^{15})^2}{6\pi\times8.85\times10^{-12}\times(3\times10^{8})^3}

\dfrac{dE}{dt}=3.00\times10^{-23}\ J/s

The energy in ev/s

\dfrac{dE}{dt}=\dfrac{3.00\times10^{-23}}{1.6\times10^{-19}}\ J/s

\dfrac{dE}{dt}=1.875\times10^{-4}\ ev/s

We need to calculate the fraction of its energy that it radiates every second

\dfrac{\dfrac{dE}{dt}}{E}=\dfrac{1.875\times10^{-4}}{6.2\times10^{6}}

\dfrac{\dfrac{dE}{dt}}{E}=3.02\times10^{-11}

Hence, The fraction of its energy that it radiates every second is 3.02\times10^{-11}.

PLEASE ANSWER ASAP!! Is a spring force a balanced force? Please, please help!
Jobisdone [24]

Explanation:

The forces acting on a massless object (spring, hook, string or wire, if considered massless) will always balance. Balanced forces acting on an object cause it to compress or stretch. The forces acting on a mass will never cancel.

Write the physics equation for this graph in slope-intercept form (y=mx+b), expressed in terms of the appropriate variables.
alexgriva [62]

The equation that describes the graph is y = 16.7x + 150.

<h3>What is the equation?</h3>

We have been given the graph of a certain function data set in physics. We know that the graph is the representation of data on cartesian coordinates. In this case, we are asked to find the equation of the graph in the form; y=mx+b

m = slope of the graph

b = intercept of the graph.

To obtain the slope;

m = y2 - y1/ x2 - x1

m = 400 - 200/ 16 - 4

m = 200/ 12

m = 16.7

Then we can see from the graph that the y - intercept is 150. Having these data, the equation that could describe the graph is now;

y = 16.7x + 150
