Answer:

1 m = 39.37 in = 39.37/12 ft = 3.28 ft

V = 1145 k/hr = 1145k/hr * 6076 ft/k = 6957020 ft / hr

V = 6957020 ft/hr / 3600 s/hr = 1933 ft/sec

V = 1933 ft/sec / (3.28 ft / m) = 589 m/s

Check:

88 ft/sec = 60 mph

(1145 k/hr * 6076 ft / k) 3600 sec/hr = 1933 ft/sec = 589 m/s

1933 ft/sec / (88 ft/sec) * 60 mph = 1318 mph

Also, 1318 / 1145 = 6076 / 5280 as it should

A ball with 100 J of PE is released from a height of 10 m. What will be the KE of the ball at 5

harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

The kinetic energy is: 50[J]

Explanation:

The ball is having a potential energy of 100 [J], therefore

PE = [J]

The elevation is 10 [m], and at this point the ball is having only potential energy, the kinetic energy is zero.

$E_{p} =m*g*h\\where:\\g= gravity[m/s^{2} ]\\m = mass [kg]\\m= \frac{E_{p} }{g*h}\\ m= \frac{100}{9.81*10}\\\\m= 1.01[kg]\\\\$

In the moment when the ball starts to fall, it will lose potential energy and the potential energy will be transforme in kinetic energy.

When the elevation is 5 [m], we have a potential energy of

$P_{e} =m*g*h\\P_{e} =1.01*9.81*5\\\\P_{e} = 50 [J]\\$

This energy is equal to the kinetic energy, therefore

Ke= 50 [J]

A frictionless pulley used to lift 8000N of concrete. What is the minimum effort required to raise the block

rusak2 [61]

Answer: 8000N

Explanation: since it is frictionless that means it has 100% efficiency therefore the mechanical advantage is 1 meaning the load equals to the effort

What force could be applied to a box to make the net force in the horizontal direction of zero

Kazeer [188]

If there is no friction, the force that moves the box forward horizontally must be matched by the same force.

If there is friction, then the force moving it forward = frictional force + the additional force you need to add.
