Answer:

Gravitational Potential Energy

Explanation:

As an object falls from rest, its gravitational potential energy is converted to kinetic energy. Conservation of energy as a tool permits the calculation of the velocity just before it hits the surface.

An Ethernet cable is 4.00m long. The cable has a mass of 0.200kg . A transverse pulse is produced by plucking one end of the tau
Mashcka [7]

Based on the length of the Ethernet cable and the mass, the tension in the cable can be found to be 80 N.

<h3>How much tension is in the cable?</h3>

The tension in the cable can be found as:

= 4 x mass x length x frequency

Solving for the frequency is:

= 1 / (0.800 / 4)

= 1 / 0.20

= 5.0 Hz

The tension is therefore:

= 4 x 0.20 x 4.00 x 5

= 80N

An airplane accelerates from a speed of 88m/s to a speed of 132 m/s during a 15 second time interval. How far did the airplane t
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

1650\:\mathrm{m}

Explanation:

We can use the following kinematics equations to solve this problem:

v_f=v_i+at,\\{v_f}^2={v_i}^2+2a\Delta x.

Using the first one to solve for acceleration:

132=88+a(15),\\15a=44,\\a=\frac{44}{15}=2.9\bar{3}\:\mathrm{m/s^2}.

Now we can use the second equation to solve for the distance travelled by the airplane:

132^2=88^2+2\cdot2.9\bar{3}\cdot \Delta x,\\\Delta x= \frac{9680}{2\cdot2.9\bar{3}},\\\Delta x =\fbox{$ 1650\:\mathrm{m}$}(three significant figures).
