Propose a hypothesis for how the position of the ball will affect the amount of its gravitational pull energy

Physics

Ray Of Light [21]2 years ago

<em><u>throwing a ball up initially has a lot of kinetic energy because it is moving upwards ( kinetic energy is energy which a body possesses by virtue of being in motion.) this all then get converted to gravitational potential energy, and for a moment it is stationary before it begins to fall again.  by the time it has returned again, all the gravitational potential energy has turned back into kinetic.</u></em>

Which statement is false?
Mkey [24]

Answer:

Once you reach adulthood, you will not experience peer pressure.

Explanation:

We tend to believe that self-control comes from within, but many of our attitudes depend as much on friends and family as on ourselves. That's because at any stage of our life (even the adult stage) our friends and our family have the power to influence us, sometimes that influence is good and sometimes bad, it's up to us to reason about them.

The people around us have the power to make us fat, consume more alcohol, worry less about the environment and expose ourselves to the sun without proper protection, among many other things.

It is not simply about peer pressure, where you deliberately act in a certain way to suit the group. It is, in fact, largely an unconscious attitude. Without your awareness, your brain is constantly picking up cues from people around you to dictate your behavior. And the consequences can be serious.

An object with total mass mtotal = 14.6 kg is sitting at rest when it explodes into three pieces. One piece with mass m1 = 4.9 k
zheka24 [161]

Answer: 1) 0. 2) 4.2 Kg. 3) 15.4 m/s 4) 12.9 m/s 5) 0. 6) 3.62 KJ.

Explanation:

1) Assuming that no external forces act during the collision, total momentum must be conserved. As initially the total mass was at rest, so initial momentum is zero, final momentum of all the system must be 0 also.

2) After the explosion, as mass must be conserved also, the sum of the masses of the three pieces must be equal to the original total mass, so we can write the following:

m₁ + m₂ + m₃ = M = 14.6 Kg = 4.9 Kg + 5.5 Kg + m₃

Solving for m₃, we have:

m₃ = 14.6 Kg - 4.9 Kg -5.5 Kg = 4.2 Kg.

3) and 4)

As momentum is a vector, if it is magnitude must be 0, this means that all his components must be 0 too.

So, we can write two equations, one for the x-component, and other for the y-component, as follows:

pₓ = m₁. v₁ₓ + m₂.v₂ₓ + m₃.v₃ₓ = 0

py = m₁.v₁y + m₂. v₂y + m₃. v₃y =0

Replacing by the values, and solving for v₃ₓ and v₃y, we get:

v₃ₓ = 15.4 m/s

v₃y = 12.9 m/s

v = √(15.4)²+(12.9)² = 20.1 m/s

5) As the center of mass must move as if all the mass were concentrated in this point, and we know that the total momentum must be 0, this tells us that the magnitude of the velocity of the center of mass must be 0 too.

6) As initial kinetic energy is 0, as  the mass was at rest, the increase in the kinetic energy is obtained simply adding the kinetic energy of every piece of mass gained after explosion, as follows:

K = K₁ + K₂ + K₃ = 1/2 (m₁ . v₁² + m₂.v₂² + m₃.v₃²)

Replacing by the values, we get:

K= 3.62 KJ

One jet is flying east at 880 km/h,and another is traveling north at 880 km/h.Do they have the same velocity?the same speed?Expl
shusha [124]
Velocity is the speed and direction combined.
So, the two jets both are going at the same speed.
But they are going in different directions, so their velocities are different.
