A) 500 calories 
B)5000 joules

Answer:

5 kilocalories

Explanation:

The heat is a way of energy and it can be measured by calories, but the calories of the heat (thermal calories) are different for the food Calories.

1 food Calories = 1000 thermal calories

5 food Calories = 5000 calories = 5 kilocalories

Thus, when a piece of candy is totally burned, the thermal calorie presented in it will be released as heat.

The position of a particle moving along the x-axis varies with time according to x(t) = 5.0t^2 − 4.0t^3 m. Find (a) the velocity
KengaRu [80]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

(a) v(t) = [10.0t - 12.0t²] m/s  and a(t) = [10.0 - 24.0t ] m/s² respectively

(b) -28.0m/s and -38.0m/s² respectively

(c) 0.83s

(d) 0.83s

(e) x(t)  = 1.1573 m           [where t = 0.83s]

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The position equation is given by;

x(t) = 5.0t² - 4.0t³ m           --------------------(i)

(a) Since velocity is the time rate of change of position, the velocity, v(t), of the particle as a function of time is calculated by finding the derivative of equation (i) as follows;

v(t) = dx(t) / dt = \frac{dx}{dt} = \frac{d}{dt} [ 5.0t² - 4.0t³ ]

v(t) = 10.0t - 12.0t²     --------------------------------(ii)

Therefore, the velocity as a function of time is v(t) = 10.0t - 12.0t² m/s

Also, since acceleration is the time rate of change of velocity, the acceleration, a(t), of the particle as a function of time is calculated by finding the derivative of equation (ii) as follows;

a(t) = dx(t) / dt = \frac{dv}{dt} =  \frac{d}{dt} [ 10.0t - 12.0t² ]

a(t) = 10.0 - 24.0t             --------------------------------(iii)

Therefore, the acceleration as a function of time is a(t) = 10.0 - 24.0t m/s²

(b) To calculate the velocity at time t = 2.0s, substitute the value of t = 2.0 into equation (ii) as follows;

=> v(t) =  10.0t - 12.0t²

=> v(2.0) = 10.0(2) - 12.0(2)²

=> v(2.0) = 20.0 - 48.0

=> v(2.0) = -28.0m/s

Also, to calculate the acceleration at time t = 2.0s, substitute the value of t = 2.0 into equation (iii) as follows;

=> a(t) = 10.0 - 24.0t

=> a(2.0) = 10.0 - 24.0(2)

=> a(2.0) = 10.0 - 48.0

=> a(2.0) = -38.0 m/s²

Therefore, the velocity and acceleration at t = 2.0s are respectively -28.0m/s and -38.0m/s²

(c) The time at which the position is maximum is the time at which there is no change in position or the change in position is zero. i.e dx / dt = 0. It also means the time at which the velocity is zero. (since velocity is dx / dt)

Therefore, substitute v = 0 into equation (ii) and solve for t as follows;

=> v(t) = 10.0t - 12.0t²

=> 0 = 10.0t - 12.0t²

=> 0 = ( 10.0 - 12.0t ) t

=> t = 0            or             10.0 - 12.0t = 0

=> t = 0            or             10.0 = 12.0t

=> t = 0            or             t = 10.0 / 12.0

=> t = 0            or             t = 0.83s

At t=0 or t = 0.83s, the position of the particle will be maximum.

To get the more correct answer, substitute t = 0 and t = 0.83 into equation (i) as follows;

<em>Substitute t = 0 into equation (i)</em>

x(t) = 5.0(0)² - 4.0(0)³ = 0

At t = 0; x = 0

<em>Substitute t = 0.83s into equation (i)</em>

x(t) = 5.0(0.83)² - 4.0(0.83)³

x(t) = 5.0(0.6889) - 4.0(0.5718)

x(t) = 3.4445 - 2.2872

x(t)  = 1.1573 m

At t = 0.83; x = 1.1573 m

Therefore, since the value of x at t = 0.83s is 1.1573m is greater than the value of x at t = 0 which is 0m, then the time at which the position is at maximum is 0.83s

(d) The velocity will be zero when the position is maximum. That means that, it will take the same time calculated in (c) above for the velocity to be zero. i.e t = 0.83s

(e) The maximum position function is found when t = 0.83s as shown in (c) above;

Substitute t = 0.83s into equation (i)

x(t) = 5.0(0.83)² - 4.0(0.83)³

x(t) = 5.0(0.6889) - 4.0(0.5718)

x(t) = 3.4445 - 2.2872

x(t)  = 1.1573 m            [where t = 0.83s]

If a 3-kg rabbit's leg muscles act as imperfectly elastic springs, how much energy will they hold if the rabbit lands from a hei
DiKsa [7]

Answer;

- 15 J

Explanation;

-Potential energy is defined as mechanical energy, stored energy, or energy caused by its position.

-For the gravitational force the formula is P.E. = mgh, where m is the mass in kilograms, g is the acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m /s² at the surface of the earth) and h is the height in meters.

Potential energy of the rabbit at the peak of its height is

PE = (3)(10)(0.5) = 15 J

(around 14.7 but because energy is lost, it is less than that)

The U.S. Department of Energy had plans for a 1500-kg automobile to be powered completely by the rotational kinetic energy of a
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

230

Explanation:

\omega = Rotational speed = 3600 rad/s

I = Moment of inertia = 6 kgm²

m = Mass of flywheel = 1500 kg

v = Velocity = 15 m/s

The kinetic energy of flywheel is given by

K=\dfrac{1}{2}I\omega^2\\\Rightarrow K=\dfrac{1}{2}6\times 3600^2\\\Rightarrow K=38880000\ J

Energy used in one acceleration

K=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\Rightarrow K=\dfrac{1}{2}1500\times 15^2\\\Rightarrow K=168750\ J

Number of accelerations would be given by

n=\dfrac{38880000}{168750}\\\Rightarrow n=230.4

So the number of complete accelerations is 230
