A 35 Kg child has the speed of 3.3 m/s after sledding down a hill. What is the child's KINETIC

Answer:

190.575 J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is given by the formula

KE=0.5mv^{2}

Where KE is kinetic energy, m is the mass of the child in Kg and v is the speed.

Kinetic energy can be transformed to other forms such as potential energy.

Given that the child has a mass of 35 kg and its speed is 3.3 m/s then we substitute these for m and v respectively.

Therefore, kinetic energy will be

KE=0.5\times 35 kg\times 3.3^{2}=190.575J

The value of kinetic energy is therefore 190.575 J

A horizontal spring with spring constant 750 N/m is attached to a wall. An athlete presses against the free end of the spring, c
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

37.5 N Hard

Explanation:

Hook's law: The force applied to an elastic material is directly proportional to the extension provided the elastic limit of the material is not exceeded.

Using the expression for hook's law,

F = ke.............. Equation 1

F = Force of the athlete, k = force constant of the spring, e = extension/compression of the spring.

Given: k = 750 N/m, e = 5.0 cm = 0.05 m

Substitute into equation 1

F = 750(0.05)

F = 37.5 N

Hence the athlete is pushing 37.5 N hard

An astronaut holds a rock 100m above the surface of Planet XX. The rock is then thrown upward with a speed of 15m/s, as shown in
mixer [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Using the equation of motion to get the acceleration due to gravoty of the rock on the planet.

S = ut+ 1/2at² where;

S is the distance of the rock above the surface of the planet = 100m

u is the initial velocity = 15m/s

a is the acceleration due to gravity

t is the time taken by the rock to reach the ground = 10s

Since the rock is thrown upward the acceleration due to gravity will be negative i.e a= -g

The equation becomes S = ut- 1/2gt²

Substituting the given value to get the time t

100 = 15(10)- 1/2g(10)²

100 = 150-50g

100-150 = -50g

-50 = -50g

g = -50/-50

g = 1m/s²

<em>Hence the acceleration due to gravity of the rock when it is on Planet XX is 1m/s²</em>

bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

A) 12.08 m/s

B) 19.39 m/s

Explanation:

A) Down the hill, we will apply Newton’s second law of motion in the downward direction to get:

mg(sinθ) – F_k = ma

Where; F_k is frictional force due to kinetic friction given by the formula;

F_k = (μ_k) × F_n

F_n is normal force given by mgcosθ

Thus;

F_k = μ_k(mg cosθ)

We now have;

mg(sinθ) – μ_k(mg cosθ) = ma

Dividing through by m to get;

g(sinθ) – μ_k(g cosθ) = a

a = 9.8(sin 12.03) - 0.6(9.8 × cos 12.03)

a = -3.71 m/s²

We are told that distance d = 24.0 m and v_o = 18 m/s

Using newton's 3rd equation of motion, we have;

v = √(v_o² + 2ad)

v = √(18² + (2 × -3.71 × 24))

v = 12.08 m/s

B) Now, μ_k = 0.10

Thus;

a = 9.8(sin 12.03) - 0.1(9.8 × cos 12.03)

a = 1.08 m/s²

Using newton's 3rd equation of motion, we have;

v = √(v_o + 2ad)

v = √(18² + (2 × 1.08 × 24))

v = 19.39 m/s
