It is possible because the rubber ball has mechanical energy which is equal to potential energy.

<h3>What is mechanical energy?</h3>

Mechanical energy of an object is the total energy possessed by the object, including the potential energy and the kinetic energy.

M.A = K.E + P.E

<h3>What is kinetic energy?</h3>

Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by an object due to its motion.

<h3>What is potential energy?</h3>

Potential energy is the energy possessed by an object due to its position.

When kinetic energy (K.E) = 0

M.A = P.E

Thus, it is possible because the rubber ball has mechanical energy which is equal to potential energy.

For a bronze alloy, the stress at which plastic deformation begins is 294 MPa and the modulus of elasticity is 121 GPa. (a) What
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

a) load in Newton is 96,138 b) 129.314mm

Explanation:

Stress = force/ area (cross sectional area of the bronze)

Force(load) = 294*10^6*327*10^-6 = 96138N

b) modulus e = stress/ strain

Strain = stress/ e = (294*10^6)/ (121*10^ 9) = 2.34* 10^ -3

Strain = change in length/ original length = DL/ 129

Change in length DL = 129 * 2.34*10^ -3 = 0.31347

Maximum length = change in length + original length = 129.314mm

Your friend is constructing a balancing display for an art project. She has one rock on the left ( ms=2.25 kgms=2.25 kg ) and th
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

Torque = 35.60 N.m (rounded off to 3 significant figures.

Explanation:

Given details:

The mass of the rock on the left, ms = 2.25 kg

The total mass of the rocks, mp = 10.1 kg

The distance from the fulcrum to the center of the pile of rocks, rp = 0.360 m

(a) The torque produced by the pile of rock, T = F*rp = m*g*rp

Torque = 9.8*0.360*10.1 = 35.6328

Torque = 35.60 N.m (rounded off to 3 significant figures).

Nearly all conventional piston engines have flywheels on them to smooth out engine vibrations caused by the thrust of individual
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

This is because, the flywheel has a very large moment of Inertia and hence sudden piston torques have negligible effect on the flywheel, but every piston combined has a significant torque. This smoothens out the vibrations.

An airplane flies eastward and always accelerates at a constant rate. at one position along its path it has a velocity of 26.3 m
galina1969 [7]
We will use the formula / equation to determined the time.

Distance = ½ * (vi + vf) * t 
48100 = ½ * (26.3 + 41.9) * t 
t = 48100 ÷ 34.1 = 1410.557185 seconds 

We will use the formula / equation to determined the acceleration. 

vf = vi + a * t 
41.9 = 26.3 + a * 1410.557185 
a = (41.9 – 26.3) ÷ 1410.557185 = 0.011059459 m/s^2 

We will use the formula / equation to determined the acceleration.

vf^2 = vi^2 + 2 * a * d 
41.9^1 = 26.3^2 + 2 * a * 48100 
a = (41.9^2 – 26.3^2) ÷ 96200 = 0. 011059459 m/s^2 
Since both answers are the same, I believe the acceleration is correct.

If the frequency of wave is 400 Hz and its wavelength is 2.5 m,<br> what is the velocity?
BigorU [14]
1000 m/s

You have the wavelength and frequency, you just need to solve for velocity. You can do this by multiplying each side of the equation by frequency.
