A) The kinetic energy of an object is given by:
where m is the mass of the object, and v its speed. For the lion in our problem, m=45 kg and v=14.2 m/s, so its kinetic energy is
b) the increase in gravitational potential energy of the lion is given by:
where g is the gravitational acceleration, and
is the increase in altitude of the lion. In this problem,
, so the increase in gravitational potential energy is
c) When the fox reaches the top of the tree, its gravitational potential energy is
As it jumps, its kinetic energy is
So the total mechanical energy of the fox as it jumps is
Answer: 1.39 s
Explanation:
We can solve this problem with the following equations:
(1)
(2)
Where:
is the length the steel wire streches (taking into account 1mm=0.001 m)
is the length of the steel wire before being streched
is the force due gravity (the weight) acting on the pendulum with mass
is the transversal area of the wire
is the Young modulus for steel
is the period of the pendulum
is the acceleration due gravity
Knowing this, let's begin by finding :
(3)
Where is the diameter of the wire
(4)
(5)
Knowing this area we can isolate from (1):
(6)
And substitute in (2):
(7)
(8)
Finally:
Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Language is defined as a medium through which a person can deliver its thoughts, ideas, or perceptions to one or more individuals.
For example, Leslie is feeling sad and that is why she is crying. Therefore, listening a cry sound her friend sitting in the next room came immediately to console her.
Hence, sound of crying is also a sign of language that tells Leslie is sad about something.
Therefore, we can conclude that the statement languages use spoken sounds, written words, and signs to represent ideas and events, is true about language.
