particle has 17.5 joules of kinetic energy and 12.5 joules of gravitational potential energy at one point during its fall from a tree to the ground. An instant before striking the ground, how much mechanical energy — rounded to the nearest joule — does the particle have?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Em = 30 J

Explanation:

The principle of conservation of mass and energy is one of the most important in physics, it establishes that energy cannot be created just by transforming it.

Therefore, the mechanical energy at a point is the same throughout the movement, only in some parts it will be kinetic, in others potential and in the intermediate points a mixture of the two, but the total value is always the same.

           Em = K + U

             

            Em = 17.5 + 12.5

            Em = 30.0 J

At the point just before touching the ground the mechanical energy is the same Em = 30 J

A 136 kg defensive lineman is about to tackle a 100 kg quarterback. Right before
impact, the lineman is moving north at 6.0 m/s and the quarterback is moving
north at 1.0 m/s. Determine the speed and direction of the two players
immediately after the tackle.

Answers

Answer:

3.88 m/s North

Explanation:

We are given that

[tex]m_1=136kg[/tex]

[tex]m_2=100 kg[/tex]

[tex]v_1=6 m/s[/tex]

[tex]v_2=1m/s[/tex]

We have to find  the speed and direction of the two players

immediately after the tackle.

Using linear conservation of momentum

[tex]m_1v_1+m_2v_2=(m_1+m_2)v[/tex]

Substitute the values

[tex]136\times 6+100\times 1=(136+100)v[/tex]

[tex]916=236v[/tex]

[tex]v=\frac{916}{236}[/tex]

[tex]v=3.88m/s[/tex]

Direction of  the two players  immediately after the tackle is North.

If the half-life of tritium (hydrogen-3) is 12.3 years, how much of
a 10 g sample of tritium is present after 250.0 years?

Answers

Answer:

0.0000076 grams

Explanation:

We're given the half life of Tritium to be 12.3 years. In order to find out the amount of substabce remaining:

Let's first find how many 'half lives' are in 250 years.

[tex]n = \frac{250}{12.3} = 20.325[/tex]

Now what is half life? It means the time taken for a given quantity of an element to lose half it's mass.

So in 12.3 years we can find that The amount of 250 g of Tritium will be 250/2 = 125 g. In 24.6 years we'll have 125/2 = 62.5 g

So now we can devise a formula:

[tex]m = \frac{original \: amount}{ {2}^{n} } [/tex]

Where m is the remaining amount and n is th number of half lives in the time given.

Using this formula we can calculate:

[tex]m = \frac{10}{ {2}^{20.325} } [/tex]

Doing this calculation we get:

[tex]m = 0.0000076 \: g[/tex]

As we can see a very small value remains.

Two charges separated by one meter exert a 9 N force on each other. If the charges are pushed to a 3 meter separation, the force on each charge will be 3 N.
True or False?

Answers

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The formula of force that exists between two charges is expressed as;

F = kq1q2/r²

If two charges separated by one meter exert a 9 N force on each other, the;

9 = kq1q2/1²

9 = kq1q2 ..... 1

If the charges are pushed to a 3 meter separation, then;

F =  kq1q2/3²

F =  kq1q2/9 .... 2

Divide both equations;

9/F = (kq1q2)/ kq1q2/9

9/F =  kq1q2 * 9/ kq1q2

9/F = 9

F = 9/9

F = 1N

Hence if the charges are pushed to a 3 meter separation, then the force on EACH charge will be 1N. Hence the answer is False

The energy of the specific system due to its steady position is defined as the potential energy of the system.

The energy of the system which is stored due to the motion of the system is called the kinetic energy of the system.

The mechanical energy of the system is the total energy within the system including its kinetic and potential energy.

The sum of kinetic and potential energy is known as mechanical energy. An object's mechanical energy is defined as the total energy which is stored during its steady position and stored during the motion of the object.

Force (N) = 250
Mass (kg) = 221
Acceleration (m/s^2) = ?

Answers

Answer:

The required acceleration is [tex]a=1.1[/tex] m/s²

Explanation:

Given

Force F = 250 NMass m = 221 kg

To determine

Acceleration a = ?

We know that acceleration is produced when a force is applied to a body.

The acceleration can be determined using the formula

[tex]F = ma[/tex]

where

F is the force m is the mass a is the acceleration

now substituting F = 250 , and m = 221 in the formula

[tex]F = ma[/tex]

[tex]250 = 221 (a)[/tex]

switch the equation

[tex]221(a) = 250[/tex]

Divide both sides by 221

[tex]\frac{221a}{221}=\frac{250}{221}[/tex]

simplify

[tex]a=\frac{250}{221}[/tex]

[tex]a=1.1[/tex] m/s²

Therefore, the required acceleration is [tex]a=1.1[/tex] m/s²

A book is resting on a table. The table is raised on one end to an angle of 15° to the floor. If the book remains at rest, what keeps the book from sliding?
A. rolling friction
B. static friction
C. sliding friction
D. fluid friction​

Answers

Answer: Static Friction

Explanation: As you tilt the book you know that it will stay fixed to start with, but eventually, once the angle is large enough, the book will start to slide. It is the static friction force that holds the book in place at small angles of tilt.

The book remains at rest if A book is resting on a table. The table is raised on one end to an angle of 15° to the floor due to static friction, so option C is correct.

What is static friction?

An item is kept at rest by the force of static friction. The phrase "static friction" can be defined as "the friction people perceive when they attempt to move a stationary object on a surface, but without actually causing any relative motion between the body and the surface it is on."

You can predict that the book will initially remain fixed when you tilt it, but once the angle is sufficiently large, it will finally begin to slide. The book is held in place at slight tilt angles by static friction force.

The formula for the coefficient of static friction is μ = tan θ, here θ is the angle of inclination if the angle is bigger the friction force is more but at 90° when the book is vertical then the friction force will not work on the book

Therefore, the book remains at rest if A book is resting on a table. The table is raised on one end to an angle of 15° to the floor due to static friction.
