Answer:

x=2.4t+4.9t^2

Explanation:

This equation is one of the kinematic equations to solve for distance. The original equation is as follows:

X=Xo+Vt+1/2at^2

We know that the ball starts at rest meaning that its initial velocity and position is zero.

X=0+Vt+1/2at^2

Since it is going down the ramp, you can use the acceleration of gravity constant. (9.81 m/s^2) and simplify that with the 1/2.

X=Vt+4.9t^2

Note: Since the positive direction in this problem is down, you are adding the 4.9t^2, but if a question says that the downward direction is negative, you would subtract those values.

Now, substitute in your velocity value.

X=2.4t+4.9t^2

What is the velocity of an 80 kg person skating across the ice with a kinetic energy of 16, 000 joules?
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

V = 20 m/s

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 80kg

Kinetic energy = 16,000 joules

To find the velocity;

Kinetic energy can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its motion.

Mathematically, kinetic energy is given by the formula;

K.E = \frac{1}{2}MV^{2}

Where;

K.E represents kinetic energy measured in Joules.

M represents mass measured in kilograms.

V represents velocity measured in metres per seconds square.

Substituting into the formula, we have;

16000 = ½*80*V²

16000 = 40V²

V² = 16000/40

V² = 400

Taking the square root of both sides, we have;

V = 20 m/s

Two resistors, R1 and R2, are connected
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

18 ohms

Explanation:

V = I(R1 + R2)

5V = (0.167A)(12 ohms + R2)

Solving for R2

R2 = 18 ohms

Three equal point charges, each with charge 2.00 μC , are placed at the vertices of an equilateral triangle whose sides are of l
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Energy of system of charges

= k q₁q₂ / r₁₂ + k q₁q₃ / r₁₃ + k q₃q₂ / r₃₂

q₁ , q₂ and q₃ are charges and  r₁₂ , r₁₃ , r₃₂ are densities between them

9 x 10⁹ ( 2x2 x10⁻¹²/ .25 + 2x2 x10⁻¹²/ .25 + 2x2 x10⁻¹²/ .25 )

= 9 x 10⁹  x 3 x 16 x 10⁻¹²

= 432 x 10⁻³

= .432 J .

Suppose an asteroid had an orbit with a semimajor axis of 4 au. how long would it take for it to orbit once around the sun?
Nitella [24]

It would take <u> 8 years </u> for the asteroid to orbit once around the sun.

What is a semimajor axis?

  • In geometry, the major axis of an ellipse is its longest diameter: a line segment that runs through the center and both foci, with ends at the two most widely separated points of the perimeter.
  • The semi-major axis (major semiaxis) is the longest semidiameter or one half of the major axis, and thus runs from the centre, through a focus, and to the perimeter.
  • The semi-major axis of a hyperbola is, depending on the convention, plus or minus one half of the distance between the two branches.
  • Thus it is the distance from the center to either vertex of the hyperbola.
  • In astronomy, the semi-major axis is one of the most important orbital elements of an orbit, along with its orbital period.
  • For Solar System objects, the semi-major axis is related to the period of the orbit by Kepler's third law.
