A camera obscura is a darkened room. For making pictures there was a small hole in one wall which allowed an image of the outside scene to project onto the opposite wall, where an artist would draw the outlines of the scenery objects by tracing around the significant lines in the image.

A lion has a mass of 45 kg. Answer the following questions about it, using correct units. a. The lion runs at a speed of 14.2 m/

Eva8 [605]

A) The kinetic energy of an object is given by:
$K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2$
where m is the mass of the object, and v its speed. For the lion in our problem, m=45 kg and v=14.2 m/s, so its kinetic energy is
$K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2= \frac{1}{2}(45 kg)(14.2 m/s)^2=4537 J$

b) the increase in gravitational potential energy of the lion is given by:
$\Delta U = mg \Delta h$
where g is the gravitational acceleration, and $\Delta h$ is the increase in altitude of the lion. In this problem, $\Delta h=28 m$ , so the increase in gravitational potential energy is
$\Delta U=mg \Delta h=(45 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)(28 m)=12361 J$

c) When the fox reaches the top of the tree, its gravitational potential energy is
$U=mgh=(1.8 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)(3.8 m)=67 J$
As it jumps, its kinetic energy is
$K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2= \frac{1}{2}(1.8 kg)(8.1 m/s)^2=59 J$
So the total mechanical energy of the fox as it jumps is
$E=U+K=67 J + 59 J =126 J$

How does the elbow medical and lateral epicondylitis?

dlinn [17]

Lateral epicondylitis, or “tennis elbow,” is an inflammation of the tendons that join the forearm muscles on the outside of the elbow. The bony bump on the outside (lateral side) of the elbow is called the lateral epicondyle. The ECRB muscle and tendon is usually involved in tennis elbow. 
Medial epicondylitis, or “golfer’s elbow,” is an inflammation of the tendons that attach your forearm muscles to the inside of the bone at your elbow. It's identified by pain from the elbow to the wrist on the inside (medial side) of the elbow. The pain is caused by damage to the tendons that bend the wrist toward the palm.

A 25 kg child runs at a speed of 5.0 m/s and jumps onto a stationary shopping cart and holds on for dear life. The cart has mass

makkiz [27]

Answer:

3.38 m/s

Explanation:

Mass of child = m₁ = 25

Initial speed of child = u₁ = 5 m/s

Initial speed of cart = u₂ = 0 m/s

Mass of cart = m₂ = 12 kg

Velocity of cart with child on top = v

This is a case of perfectly inelastic collision

$m_1u_1+m_2u_2=(m_1+m_2)v\\\Rightarrow v=\frac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2}{m_1+m_2}\\\Rightarrow v=\frac{25\times 5+12\times 0}{25+12}\\\Rightarrow v=\frac{125}{37}\\\Rightarrow v=3.38\ m/s$
