A 95 kg falling trunk strikes the ground with a speed of 40 m/s. Assuming that there is no loss of energy due to air resistance, what is the height from which the trunk falls?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

80 m or 81.3 m

Explanation:

Initially it had no velocity(as at rest). Let the height be h

Using conservation of energy:

Initial KE + PE = final KE + PE

(1/2) m(0)² + mgh = (1/2) m(40)² + mg(0)

mgh = (1/2) m (1600)

2gh = 16000

h = 1600/(2*10) {for g = 10}

h = 80

80 For g = 9.8, h = 81.3 m

Using Newton's eqⁿ of motion:

v² = u² + 2aS

40² = 0² + 2(g)S

1600/2g = S

For g = 10, S = 80 m

g = 9.8, S = 81.33 m

Blackie, a cat whose mass is 6-kg, is napping on top of the refrigerator when he rolls over and fall. Blackie has a KE of 90-J just before he lands on his feet on the floor.

How tall is the refrigerator?

Answers

To answer this question, you need to understand the law of conservation of energy. Essentially, the law states that energy cannot be created or destroyed; it is always conserved.

Knowing this law, how can we answer this question? Well, let's look at what the question tells us. We know that Blackie was initially at the top of a refrigerator before rolling over and falling to the ground. At ground level, he only has Kinetic energy when he lands. Since we know that he started at the top of the fridge, we know that Blackie started off with potential gravitational energy.

That would make sense, right? Written out as an equation, it'd be:

[tex]U_{g}[/tex] = [tex]K_{E}[/tex]

This follows the law of conservation of energy, as all the potential gravitational energy is converted into Kinetic energy.

Now, we know what energies are converted. What can we do with it? Recall the equation of potential gravitational energy:

[tex]U_{g}[/tex] = [tex]F_{g}[/tex]∆H

[tex]U_{g}[/tex] = mg∆H

Do you see it now? ∆H is the distance that Blackie falls, and since Blackie jumps from the fridge to the ground, ∆H must be the height of the fridge!

Let's start solving for ∆H:

[tex]U_{g}[/tex] = [tex]K_{E}[/tex]

Substitute potential gravitational energy with our equation:

mg∆H = [tex]K_{E}[/tex]

We were given the value of Kinetic Energy:

mg∆H = 90

Isolate ∆H by dividing both sides by mg:

∆H = [tex]\frac{90}{mg}[/tex]

Input values for 'm' and 'g' (m is the mass of Blackie and g is Earth's acceleration)

∆H = [tex]\frac{90}{6*9.80}[/tex]

∆H = [tex]\frac{90}{58.8}[/tex]

∆H = 1.53

The refrigerator is 1.53 meters tall.

And that's it! Let me know if you need me to explain anything I did here.

A 100 L ball is blown up inside at 200K. It is then taken outside in the hot sun, and the volume increases to 150 L. What is the new temperature?​

Answers

Answer:

Temperature, T2 = 300 Kelvin

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial volume = 100 Liters

Initial temperature = 200 Kelvin

Final volume = 150 Liters

To find the final temperature T2, we would use Charles' law.

Charles states that when the pressure of an ideal gas is kept constant, the volume of the gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature of the gas.

Mathematically, Charles is given by;

[tex] \frac {V}{T} = K[/tex]

[tex] \frac{V1}{T1} = \frac{V2}{T2}[/tex]

Making T2 as the subject formula, we have;

[tex] T_{2}= \frac{V_{2}}{V_{1}} * T_{1}[/tex]

Substituting into the formula, we have;

[tex] T_{2}= \frac{150}{100} * 200[/tex]

[tex] T_{2}= 1.5 * 200 [/tex]

Temperature, T2 = 300 Kelvin

Give 1 real life example of a scenario that takes advantage of the inverse relationship between force and time when impulse is constant. Describe how it is an example of impulse and how force and time are involved.

Answers

Answer:

On real life example of a scenario that takes advantage of the inverse relationship between force and time when impulse is constant is when making a serve with a lawn tennis racket

How It is an example of impulse is that when a serve is made by moving the bat slowly, the lawn tennis player uses less force and the ball is in contact with the string for longer a period

When however, the lawn tennis player moves the racket faster, with the strings of the racket highly tensioned  he uses more force and the ball also spends less time on the racket to produce the same momentum

Explanation:

The impulse of a force, ΔP is given by the following formula;

ΔP = F × Δt

Where ΔP is constant, we have;

F ∝ 1/Δt

Therefore, for the same impulse, when the force is increased, the time of contact is decreases and vice versa.

Two resistors, 2.50 Ω and 4.95 Ω, are wired in series to a 12.00 V battery. What is the equivalent resistance of the circuit?

Answers

Answer:

7.45 Ω

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Resistor 1 (R₁) = 2.50 Ω

Resistor 2 (R₂) = 4.95 Ω

Voltage (V) = 12 V

Equivalent Resistance (Rₑq) =?

Since the resistors are in series arrangement, the equivalent resistance can be obtained as follow:

Rₑq = R₁ + R₂

Rₑq = 2.5 + 4.95

Rₑq = 7.45 Ω

Therefore, the equivalent resistance is 7.45 Ω

Answers

Static Friction is the force that keeps an object at rest

Rolling friction is a resistive force that slows down something thats rolling such as a ball or a wheel
example: a rolling soccer being slowed down from grass

Sliding Friction is the friction created from two object sliding against eachother, just like kinetic friction. It is intended to make the object stop
example: A sled sliding down a hill against snow

Fluid Friction is the force that resist motion in fluid or something moving around a fluid.
example: water pushing against a swimmer when swimming through it

The average speed for the runner B for the first 25 seconds was;

30/25 = 1.2 m/s

Explanation:

The average speed of an object is given by the following formula

[tex]Average \ speed = \dfrac{Total \ distance \ covered}{Total \ time \ taken \ to \ cover \ the \ distance}[/tex]

From the graph, we have;

The coordinates of the runner B at the start = (0, 0)

The coordinates of the runner B after 25 seconds = (25, 30)

The total distance covered by the runner B after 25 seconds = The difference between the position at 25 seconds and the origin which is 30 meters

∴ The total distance covered by the runner B after 25 seconds = 30 meters

The time it takes the runner B to cover the distance = The 25 seconds

[tex]\therefore \ For \ the \ runner \ B, the \ average \ speed = \dfrac{30 \ meters}{25 \ seconds} = 1.2 \ m/s[/tex]

The average speed for the runner B for the first 25 seconds = 30 m/(25 s) = 1.2 m/s.
