The total energy (also called mechanical energy) is the sum of the kinetic energy and potential energy:
$TE = KE + PE$
For this pendulum, we see that at t=0.60 s the total energy is TE=0.918 J while the potential energy is 0.054 J, so the kinetic energy (the missing value in the table) is
$KE=TE-PE=0.918 J - 0.054 J =0.864 J$

OLga [1]

Answer:

Cannonball will be in flight before it hits the ground for 2.02 seconds

Explanation:

Initial height from ground = 20 meter.

We have equation of motion , $s= ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2$ , s is the displacement, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time.

In this the velocity of body in vertical direction = 0 m/s, acceleration = 9.8 $m/s^2$ , we need to calculate time when s = 20 meter.

Substituting

$20=0*t+\frac{1}{2} *9.8*t^2\\ \\ t = 2.02 seconds$

So it will take 2.02 seconds to reach ground.

A simple pendulum 0.64m long has a period of 1.2seconds. Calculate the period of a similar pendulum 0.36m long in the same locat

weqwewe [10]

The period of the second pendulum is 0.9 s

Explanation:

The period of a simple pendulum is given by the equation

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}$

where

L is the length of the pendulum

g is the acceleration of gravity at the location of the pendulum

For the first pendulum, we have

L = 0.64 m

T = 1.2 s

Therefore we can find the value of g at that location:

$g=(\frac{2\pi}{T})^2 L=(\frac{2\pi}{1.2})^2 (0.64)=17.5 m/s^2$

Now we can find the period of the second pendulum at the same location, which is given by

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}$

where we have

L = 0.36 m (length of the second pendulum)

$g=17.5 m/s^2$

Substituting,

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{0.36}{17.5}}=0.9 s$

A helicopter (m = 3250 kg) is cruising at a speed of 56.9 m/s atan altitude of 185 m. What is the total mechanical energy of the

taurus [48]

Answer:

The mechanical energy of the helicopter is $1.12\times 10^7\ J$ .

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the helicopter, m = 3250 kg

Speed of the helicopter, v = 56.9 m/s

Position of the helicopter, h = 185 m

The energy possessed by an object due to its motion is called its kinetic energy. It is given by :

$E=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

$E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 3250\times (56.9)^2$

$E=5.26\times 10^6\ J$

The energy possessed by an object due to its position is called its potential energy. It is given by :

$E=mgh$

$E=3250\times 9.8\times 185$

$E=5.89\times 10^6\ J$

The sum of kinetic and potential energy is called mechanical energy of the system. It is given by :

$M=5.26\times 10^6+5.89\times 10^6$

$M=11.15\times 10^6\ J$

$M=1.12\times 10^7\ J$

So, the mechanical energy of the helicopter is $1.12\times 10^7\ J$ . Hence, this is the required solution.
