The formula for kinetic energy is:

KE = 0.5mv^2

where:
m = mass
v = speed

Given this formula, the original KE of the scooter is calculated as 392 J. Since the speed is doubled, it can be observed in the formula that the change would actually affect the kinetic energy by quadrupling it. This is because 2^2 is 4. So, 392(4) = 1568 J or B.

A 4 kg box is on a frictionless 35° slope and is connected via a massless string over a massless, frictionless pulley to a hangi
Anarel [89]

Answer:

(a) 19.62 N

(b) Box moves down the slope

(c) 24.43 N

Explanation:

(a)  

2 Kg box  causes tension

T=mgwhere m is mass, g is gravitational force taken as 9.81T=2*9.81 =19.62 N  (b)  Block mass of 4 Kg  [tex]T'-mg sin \theta=0 hence T'=mg sin \theta where m is mass and g is gravitational force  

T'=4*9.81 sin 35= 22.5071 N  

Since T' is greater than mg sin\theta , then the box moves down the slope  

(c)  

Acceleration a= \frac {forward   force-backward   force}{Total mass}= \frac {mg sin \theta -mg}{m1 + m2}  

a= \frac {22.51-19.62}{2+4}=0.48

When moving, the box will exert force T"= mgsin \theta + ma  

T"= 4*9.81 sin 35 +(4*0.48)= 24.43 N

When calculating the mechanical advantage of a lever, what two pieces of information are needed?
DIA [1.3K]
From the items on this list, the only one that allows calculation
of the mechanical advantage is 'B' ... the lengths from the fulcrum
to the effort and the resistance.

The MA can also be calculated when you know the two forces ...
the effort and the resistance ... when the lever is just balanced.

A frog leaps up from the ground and lands on a step 0.1 m above the ground 2 s later. We want to find the
mash [69]

Answer:

\Delta x = v_0 t + \frac{1}{2}at^2

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we can use the following suvat equation:

\Delta x = v_0 t + \frac{1}{2}at^2

where

\Delta x is the vertical displacement of the frog

v_0 is the initial vertical velocity

t is the time

a is the acceleration

We have chosen this formula because apart from v_0, all the other quantities are known. In fact:

\Delta x =0.1 m is the vertical displacement

t = 2 s is the total time of flight

a=g=-9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity (negative because it is downward)

Therefore, solving for v_0, we find the initial velocity of the frog:

v_0 = \frac{\Delta x-\frac{1}{2}at^2}{t}=\frac{0.1-\frac{1}{2}(-9.8)(2)^2}{2}=9.85 m/s

An object is moving in the plane according to these parametric equations:
aniked [119]
A. The horizontal velocity is 
vx = dx/dt = π - 4πsin (4πt + π/2)
vx = π - 4π sin (0 + π/2)
vx = π - 4π (1)
vx = -3π

b. vy = 4π cos (4πt + π/2)
vy = 0

c. m = sin(4πt + π/2) / [<span>πt + cos(4πt + π/2)]

d. m = </span>sin(4π/6 + π/2) / [π/6 + cos(4π/6 + π/2)]

e. t = -1.0

f. t = -0.35

g. Solve for t 
vx = π - 4πsin (4πt + π/2) = 0
Then substitute back to solve for vxmax

h. Solve for t
vy = 4π cos (4πt + π/2) = 0
The substitute back to solve for vymax

i. s(t) = [<span>x(t)^2 + y</span>(t)^2]^(1/2)

h. s'(t) = d [x(t)^2 + y(t)^2]^(1/2) / dt

k and l. Solve for the values of t
d [x(t)^2 + y(t)^2]^(1/2) / dt = 0
And substitute to determine the maximum and minimum speeds.
