Answer:

An object has potential energy (stored energy) when it is not in motion. Once a force has been applied or it begins to move the potential energy changes to kinetic energy (energy of motion).

EXAMPLE: A rock sitting on the edge of a cliff. If the rock falls, the potential energy will be converted to kinetic energy, as the rock will be moving. A stretched elastic string in a longbow.

The summer camps had a field trip from the campus to Fragrance Hill. They traveled at an average speed of 65 km/h in the first 2

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

Explanation:

They traveled this distance in 2 parts, essentially. Part 1 had an average speed for a certain number of hours, part 2 had an average speed for a certain number of hours, and those 2 parts taken together took them a distance of 364 km. In equation form, that looks like this:

km/hr part 1 + km/hr part 2 = 364 km

Now we need to find each part on the left side of that equation. Part 1 first:

We traveled 65 km/hr for 2 hours, so that took us

$65\frac{km}{hr}*2hr$ and canceling out the hour label, we have that in part 1 we got

65(2) = 130 km. Good. Now onto the second part, where our unknown is.

We traveled 78 km/hr the second part for x hours, so that took us

$78\frac{km}{hr}*xhr$ and canceling out the hour label, we have that in part 2 we got

78x km. Now we can fill in the main equation (the one in bold print)

130 km + 78x km = 364 km and subtracting 130 km from both sides:

78x km = 234 km and dividing by 78 km:

x = 3 hours. Part 2 took 3 hours. Part 1 took 2 hours, so the whole trip took 5 hours.

A 0.250 kg fan cart accelerates at 24 cm/ s^2 for 4.5 seconds. what is the net force (fan thrust minus drag and friction) on the

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

0.06 N

1.08 m/s

Explanation:

m = mass of the fan cart = 0.250 kg

a = acceleration of the fan cart = 24 cm/s² = 0.24 m/s²

F = Net force on the cart

Net force on the cart is given as

F = ma

F = (0.250) (0.24)

F = 0.06 N

v₀ = initial velocity of the cart = 0 m/s

v = final velocity of the cart

t = time interval = 4.5 s

Using the equation

v = v₀ + a t

v = 0 + (0.24) (4.5)

v = 1.08 m/s

dsp73

Answer:

(i) See attached image for the drawing

(ii) net force given in component form: (20, 20)N with magnitude: $\sqrt{800} \,\,\,N$

Explanation:

First try to write all forces in vector component form:

The force F1 acting at 45 degrees would have multiplication factors of $\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}$ on both axes, to take care of the sine and cosine projections. Therefore, the:

x-component of F1 is $F1_x=12\,\sqrt{2} \frac{\sqrt{2} }{2} =12\,\,N$

y-component of F1 is $F1_y=12\,\sqrt{2} \frac{\sqrt{2} }{2} =12\,\,N$

As far as force F2, it is given already in x and y components, then:

x-component of F2 = 8 N

y-component of F2 = -6 N (negative meaning pointing down the y-axis)

Force F3 has only component (upwards) in the y-direction

x-component of F3 = 0 N

y-component of F3 =14 N

The additions of all these component by component, gives the resultant force (R) acting on the 5 kg mass:

x-component of R = 12 + 8 = 20 N

y-component of R = 12 + 14 - 6 = 20 N

Therefore, the acceleration that the mass receives due to this force is given in component form as:

x-component of acceleration: 20 N / 5 kg = $4\,\,\,m/s^2$

y-component of acceleration: 20 N / 5 kg = $4\,\,\,m/s^2$

Now we can calculate the components of the velocity of this mass after 2 seconds of being accelerated by this force, using the formula of acceleration times time:

x-component of the velocity is: $v_x=4\,*\,2=8\,m/s$

y-component of the velocity is: $v_y=4\,*\,2=8\,m/s$
