Answer:

Duck's kinetic energy is 64.8 Joules

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the duck, m = 0.9 kg

Velocity of the duck is, v = 12 m/s

We have to find the velocity of the duck. It is given due to the motion of an object. Mathematically, it is written as :

$KE=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

$KE=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 0.9\ kg\times (12\ m/s)^2$

KE = 64.8 Joules

Hence, the kinetic energy of the duck is 64.8 Joules

It should be at about 65J. Not sure, hope I helped.

A planet orbits a start with the path shown below.

kvv77 [185]

PART a)

As we know that gravitational potential energy is given by the formula

$U = -\frac{Gm_1m_2}{r}$

here we can see that gravitational potential energy inversely varies with the distance

so here when distance from the sun is minimum then magnitude of gravitational potential energy is maximum while since it is given with negative sign so its overall value is minimum at that position

So gravitational potential energy is minimum at the nearest point and maximum at the farthest point

PART b)

Since we know that sum of kinetic energy and potential energy is constant here

so the points of minimum potential energy is the point where kinetic energy is maximum which means speed is maximum

So here speed is maximum at the nearest point

Part C)

since gravitational potential energy inversely varies with distance so it's graph will be like hyperbolic graph with distance

The people in a location in Florida mainly grow crops which need a lot of water. Which of these statements about the location be

Arisa [49]

The people of Florida are closest to the equator and also near 2 different bodies of water and have rivers running thru them as well salt water and fresh water. they need alot of freshwater due to monsoon seasons, hurricanes etc, its humid and hot there so naturally you need to water more often and frequently.

A falcon can descend with a speed 250 km/h. If a falcon flies at this speed for 2.0 s and then flies a 100 m in 2.5 s, what is t

Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

v= s/t

Explanation:

250 km/ h =69.44m/s

S1=2 times 69.44 ≈ 139m

Next 2.5 seconds:

S2 = 100m

Average speed:

v=139m+100m/2s+2.5s = 239/4.5s = 53.2 m/s=192km/h
