Answer:5.62 m/s

Explanation:

Given

Inclination $\theta =25^{\circ}$

Coefficient of kinetic Friction $\mu _k=0.15$

mass of Anissa's $m=55 kg$

time interval $t=2 s$

acceleration of the system

$a=g\sin \theta -\mu _kg\cos \theta$

$a=9.8\sin (25)-0.15\cdot 9.8\cos (25)$

$a=4.14-1.33=2.81 m/s^2$

$v=u+at$

where v=Final Velocity

u=Initial Velocity

a=acceleration of system

t=time

$v=0+2.81\times 2$

$v=5.62 m/s$

How can you determine the amount of work done on an object? (joules, work, power...etc.)

Novay_Z [31]

Work done is equal to force by distance; so you take the force exerted, in newtons, and multiply that by the direction it's moved (from the starting point in a line, not along the path it's taken.)

Which object has the most gravitational potential energy?

Kipish [7]

Answer: An 8 kg book at a height of 3 m has the most gravitational potential energy.

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is the product of mass of object, height of object and gravitational field.

So, formula to calculate gravitational potential energy is as follows.

U = mgh

where,

m = mass of object

g = gravitational field = $9.81 m/s^{2}$

h = height of object

(A) m = 5 kg and h = 2m

Therefore, its gravitational potential energy is calculated as follows.

$U = mgh\\= 5 kg \times 9.81 m/s^{2} \times 2 m\\= 98.1 J (1 J = kg m^{2}/s^{2})$

(B) m = 8 kg and h = 2 m

Therefore, its gravitational potential energy is calculated as follows.

$U = mgh\\= 8 kg \times 9.81 m/s^{2} \times 2 m\\= 156.96 J (1 J = kg m^{2}/s^{2})$

(C) m = 8 kg and h = 3 m

Therefore, its gravitational potential energy is calculated as follows.

$U = mgh\\= 8 kg \times 9.81 m/s^{2} \times 3 m\\= 235.44 J (1 J = kg m^{2}/s^{2})$

(D) m = 5 kg and h = 3 m

Therefore, its gravitational potential energy is calculated as follows.

$U = mgh\\= 5 kg \times 9.81 m/s^{2} \times 3 m\\= 147.15 J (1 J = kg m^{2}/s^{2})$

Thus, we can conclude that an 8 kg book at a height of 3 m has the most gravitational potential energy.

g A bowling ball with a mass of 3.86 kg and a radius of 0.161 m starts from rest at a height of 2.5 m and rolls down a 48.4 o sl

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

$v=1.5m/s$

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy gets transformed into translational and rotational kinetic energy, so we can write $mgh=\frac{mv^2}{2}+\frac{I\omega^2}{2}$ . Since $v=r\omega$ (the ball rolls without slipping) and for a solid sphere $I=\frac{2mr^2}{5}$ , we have:

$mgh=\frac{mv^2}{2}+\frac{2mr^2\omega^2}{2*5}=\frac{mv^2}{2}+\frac{mv^2}{5}=\frac{7mv^2}{10}$

So our translational speed will be:

$v=\sqrt{\frac{10gh}{7}}=\sqrt{\frac{10(9.8m/s^2)(0.161m)}{7}}=1.5m/s$
