A shot-putter accelerates a 7.2 kg shot from rest to 17 m/s . what work did the shot-putter do on the ball?

garri49 [273]

<span>1.0x10^3 Joules The kinetic energy a body has is expressed as the equation E = 0.5 M V^2 where E = Energy M = Mass V = Velocity Since the shot was at rest, the initial energy is 0. Let's calculate the energy that the shot has while in motion E = 0.5 * 7.2 kg * (17 m/s)^2 E = 3.6 kg * 289 m^2/s^2 E = 1040.4 kg*m^2/s^2 E = 1040.4 J So the work performed on the shot was 1040.4 Joules. Rounding the result to 2 significant figures gives 1.0x10^3 Joules</span>

C. Chemical Energy is transformed to light energy and heat energy. The heat energy is keeping you warm and light energy is giving you the light you need to be able to read the book.

IgorC [24]

Answer:

Part A:

Distance=864000 m=864 km

Part B:

Energy Used=ΔE=8638000 Joules

Part C:

$\frac{\triangle m}{m}=0.004998=0.49985\%$

Explanation:

Given Data:

v=20m/s

Time =t=12 hours

In Secs:

Time=12*60*60=43200 secs

Solution:

Part A:

Distance = Speed**Time

Distance=v*t

Distance= 20*43200

Distance=864000 m=864 km

Part B:

Energy Used=ΔE= Energy Required-Kinetic Energy of swans

Energy Required to move= Power Required*time

Energy Required to move=200*43200=8640000 Joules

Kinetic Energy= $\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

$K.E\ of\ Swans=\frac{1}{2} *10*(20)^2=2000\ Joules$

Energy Used=ΔE=8640000 -2000

Energy Used=ΔE=8638000 Joules

Part C:

Fraction of Mass used=Δm/m

For This first calculate fraction of energy used:

Fraction of energy=ΔE/Energy required to move

ΔE is calculated in part B

Fraction of energy=8638000/8640000

Fraction of energy=0.99977

Kinetic Energy= $\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

Now, the relation between energies ratio and masses is:

$\frac{\triangle E}{E}=\frac{\triangle m}{2m}v^2$

$\frac{\triangle m}{m}=\frac{2}{v^2} *\frac{\triangle E}{E}\\\frac{\triangle m}{m}=\frac{2}{20^2} *0.99977$

$\frac{\triangle m}{m}=0.004998=0.49985\%$
