A cyclist pedals up to the top of a hill.

a) What kind of energy is being used to do work against gravity?

b) State the type of energy the cyclist has when he stops at the top of the hill.

c) When the cyclist moves downhill without pedaling, what type of energy does he gain?

Answers

Answer 1

Explanation:

A) kinetic energy

B) potential energy

C) Mechanical energy

Answer 2

a) The motorcyclist rises utilising chemical energy's "mechanical energy" (kinetic and potential energy). b) The cyclist's highest "gravitational potential energy" is transformed into motion downhill. c) When the rider moves downhill, potential energy becomes "kinetic energy." "Kinetic energy" is most vital.

a) "Mechanical energy" is used by the cyclist to ride up the slope. Kinetic and potential energy from an object's motion and position make up mechanical energy. As they pedal, cyclists transform chemical energy from their bodies into mechanical energy. This mechanical energy overcomes gravity as the cyclist climbs. As the cyclist climbs, potential energy accumulates, which is translated into kinetic energy as they descend.

b) At the summit of the slope, the biker has "gravitational potential energy." An object's gravitational potential energy depends on its position in a gravitational field. The biker has gained potential energy by climbing against gravity. At the crest of the hill, the cyclist's kinetic energy is lowest while potential energy is highest. The cyclist's potential energy is ready to be turned into kinetic energy as they descend.

c) Without pedalling, the rider gains "kinetic energy." The cyclist's speed increases as they descend, converting potential energy into kinetic energy. The cyclist's potential energy is turned into kinetic energy by gravity. As the rider descends, their potential energy diminishes but their kinetic energy increases, speeding up their bike. The biker converts potential energy into kinetic energy as he descends, and most of it is converted back at the bottom.

In conclusion, the cyclist climbs the incline using "mechanical energy" from chemical energy. They descend using "gravitational potential energy" at the top. Potential energy becomes "kinetic energy" when the rider descends without pedalling, speeding up the bike. Potential-to-kinetic energy conversion helps the cyclist climb the slope.

the base of the port. Find the initial velocity of the bullet.
A. 10 3 m/s B. 8.32 m/s C. 3.82 m/s D. 1.0 m/s

Answers

Answer:

m V1 = (m + M) V2 conservation of momentum

T = time to fall 2 m

2 = 9.8 / 2 T^2    initial vertical velocity zero

T^2 = 4/9.8       T = .639 sec

Sx = V2 * .639 sec     distance traveled horizontally

V2 = 4 /.639 = 6.26 m/sec

V1 = (m + M) / m * 6.26 m/sec       from first equation

V1 = (600 + 10) / 10 * 6.26 m/s = 382 m/s

There seems to be some confusion on units

Note that 382 m/s is a reasonable answer for speed of bullet

1100 ft/sec is reasonable for a .22 cal bullet

1100 ft/sec / 3.28 ft/m = 335 m/sec

t = 4.040610...

t = 4.0 s

2) d = vt

   d = 25(4.0)

   d = 100 m

3) v² = u² + 2as

   v² = 25² + 2(9.8)(80)

7. A taxi is travelling at 15 m/s. Its driver accelerates with acceleration 3 m/s2 for 4 s. What is its new velocity​

Answers

Hi there!

To solve, we can use the following equation:

vf = vi + at

vi = initial velocity (m/s)

a = acceleration (m/s²)

t = time (s)

vf = final velocity (m/s)

Plug in the given values:

vf = 15 + 3(4)

vf = 15 + 12 = 27 m/s

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf 27 \ m/s}}[/tex]

Explanation:

We are asked to find the new or final velocity of a taxi.

We will use the following kinematic equation:

[tex]v_f=v_i+at[/tex]

The car was initially traveling at 15 meters per second. It accelerated at 3 meters per second squared for 4 seconds.

[tex]v_i=[/tex]15 m/s[tex]a=[/tex]3 m/s ²t= 4 s

Substitute the values into the formula.

[tex]v_f= 15 \ m/s + (3 \ m/s^2* 4 \ s)[/tex]

Multiply the numbers in parentheses.

3 m/s/s * 4 s = 3 m/s *4 = 12 m/s

[tex]v_f= 15 \ m/s +12 \ m/s[/tex]

Add.

[tex]v_f=27 \ m/s[/tex]

The new velocity of the taxi is 27 meters per second.

What is the velocity of a ball swung around on a rope with a
radius of 0.25 meters and period of 0.40 seconds?

Answers

A ball swung around on a rope of a radius of 0.25 meters in a time of 0.40 seconds, then the velocity of the ball will be equal to 3.925 m/s.

What is velocity?

Velocity is the rate of change of a traveling object's direction, as measured by a certain unit of time and as seen from a specific vantage point. Speed is a basic concept in kinematics, the branch of special relativity that studies how bodies move.

A scientific vector quantity called velocity must have both a magnitude and direction to be described.

As per the data provided in the question,

Radius, r = 0.25

Time, t = 0.40 seconds

Circumference of the circle, d = 2πr

d = 2π(0.25)

d = 1.570 m

Velocity, v = d / t

v = 1.570 / 0.40

v = 3.925 m/s.

Therefore, the velocity of the ball will be 3.925 m/s.

What is Refraction?

Refraction is the redirection of a wave as it passes from one medium to another medium. The redirection of wave can be caused by the wave's change in speed or by a change in the medium of wave.

The refraction of light or change in the direction of path of light in other medium occurs because the light wave travels with different speeds in different media. When a ray of light passes from one medium to another medium, the direction of the wave changes except for zero degrees because of the change in its speed.

Consider the schematic of the molecule shown, with two hydrogen atoms, H, bonded to an oxygen atom, O. The angle between the two bonds is 106°. If the bond length r = 0.103 nm long, locate the center of mass of the molecule. The mass mH of the hydrogen atom is 1.008 u, and the mass mO of the oxygen atom is 15.9999 u. (Use a coordinate system centered in the oxygen atom, with the x-axis to the right and the y-axis upward. Give the coordinates of the center of mass in nm.)

Answers

The definition of the center of mass allows to find the result for the position of the mass center of more than the H₂O molecule is;

         [tex]x_{cm} = 0 \ and \ y_{cm} = 6.9 10^{-3 } nm[/tex]  

the concept of center of mass of a system is the point where external forces are applied, it is given by the expression

             [tex]\frac{x}{y} =\frac{1}{M_{total}} \sum m_i r_i[/tex]  

Where M is the total mass of the systemr_i and m_i sums the position and masses of the element i of the system

In the attachment we have a diagram of the system where the axis and coordinates of the molecules are shown, in this case it is indicated that the origin is in the oxygen atom, so its distance is zero.

           [tex]r_{cm} = \frac{1}{2 m + M} \ (2 m r )[/tex] )

They indicate the mass of the hydrogen atom m = 1.008 amu, the bond length r = 0.103 nm and there is an angle 106º between the two hydrogens, therefore the angle from the vertical is:

           θ = 106/2 = 53º

Let's find the position of the center of mass for each axis.

x-axis

           [tex]x_{cm} = \frac{1}{2m+ M} \ ( m x_1 - m x_2)[/tex]  

y-axis

          [tex]y_{cm} = \frac{1}{2m + M} \ ( m y_1 + m_2)[/tex]

Let's use trigonometry to find the components of the bond length.

         cos θ = [tex]\frac{y}{L}[/tex]  

         sin θ = [tex]\frac{x}{L}[/tex]  

         y = L cos θ

         x = L sin θ  

We substitute.

          [tex]x_{cm} = \frac{1}{2m+M} \ (mL (sin 53 + sin (-53)) \\y_{cm} = \frac{1}{2m + M} \ ( mL cos 53 + mL sin 53)[/tex]

we use.  

          sin θ = - sin -θ

          cos θ = cos -θ

Let's calculate.

        [tex]x_{cm} = 0 \\y_{cm} = \frac{1}{2 \ 1.008 + 15.9999} \ ( 2 \ 1.008 \ 0.103 cos 53)[/tex]

       

We see that the center of mass is on the x axis and at a distance from the y-axis of 6.9 10-3 nm

In conclusion using the definition of the center of mass we can find the result for the position of the center of mass of the H₂O molecule is;

          [tex]x_{cm}=0[/tex]  and [tex]y_{cm}[/tex]cm = 6.9 10⁻³ nm
