Answer:

400 J

Explanation:

Given:

Δy = 4.00 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 5.00 m/s²

Find: v²

v² = v₀² + 2aΔy

v² = (0 m/s)² + 2 (5.00 m/s²) (4.00 m)

v² = 40.0 m²/s²

Find KE:

KE = ½ mv²

KE = ½ (20.0 kg) (40.0 m²/s²)

KE = 400 J

hodyreva [135]

Answer: 9.312 m/s

Explanation:

The friction force (opposite to the motion) is Fa = μ*m*g*cos(α) with μ = kinetic friction. The force that makes the motion is

F = m*g*sin(α).

The Newton's law gives:

F - Fa = m*a

m*g*sin(α) - μ*m*g*cos(α) = m*a

g*sin(α) - μ*g*cos(α) = a so a = 4.335 m/s²

It's a uniformly accelerated motion:

Space

S = 0.5*a*t²

10 = 0.5*a*t²

=> t = 2.148 s

Velocity

V = a*t = 9.312 m/s.

Suppose 1 kg of Hydrogen is converted into Helium. a) What is the mass of the He produced? b) How much energy is released in thi
morpeh [17]

Answer:

a) m = 993 g

b) E = 6.50 × 10¹⁴ J

Explanation:

atomic mass of hydrogen = 1.00794

4 hydrogen atom will make a helium atom = 4 × 1.00794 = 4.03176

we know atomic mass of helium = 4.002602

difference in the atomic mass of helium = 4.03176-4.002602 = 0.029158

fraction of mass lost = \dfrac{0.029158}{4.03176}= 0.00723

loss of mass for 1000 g = 1000 × 0.00723 = 7.23

a) mass of helium produced = 1000-7.23 = 993 g (approx.)

b) energy released in the process

E = m c²

E = 0.00723 × (3× 10⁸)²

E = 6.50 × 10¹⁴ J

A cart starts from rest and accelerates at 4.0 m/s2 for 5.0 s, then maintains that velocity for 10 s, and then decelerates at th
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

Final speed of car = 12 m/s

Explanation:

We have equation of motion v = u + at, where v is final velocity, u is initial velocity, a is acceleration and t is time.

a) A cart starts from rest and accelerates at 4.0 m/s² for 5.0 s

        v = ?

        u = 0 m/s

        a = 4.0 m/s²

         t = 5 s

         v = u + at = 0 + 4 x 5 = 20 m/s

b) Then maintains that velocity for 10 s

        v = ?

        u = 20 m/s

        a = 0 m/s²

         t = 10 s

         v = u + at = 20 + 0 x 10 = 20 m/s

c) Then decelerates at the rate of 2.0 m/s² for 4.0 s

        v = ?

        u = 20 m/s

        a = -2.0 m/s²

         t = 4 s

         v = u + at = 20 + -2 x 4 = 12 m/s

Final speed of car = 12 m/s
