Answer:

mv^2

Explanation:

Let m represent the mass of each object and v denote its velocity; the kinetic energy for one object can be expressed as

K_1 = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

The kinetic energy is determined solely by speed and not by velocity's direction. Consequently, the second object's kinetic energy will be identical:

K_2 = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

Thus, the total kinetic energy can be determined as

K=K_1 +K_2 = \frac{1}{2}mv^2+\frac{1}{2}mv^2=mv^2

A person who climbs up something (e.g., a hill, a ladder, the stairs) from the ground gains potential energy. a person's weight
kicyunya [3294]

The following values have been provided:

weight w = 240 lb = 1,067.52 N

energy E = 3,000 J

 

The equation for potential energy is:

E = w h

where h indicates the height that the person needs to ascend, therefore:

h = 3000 / 1067.52

h = 2.81 m

<span />

Baseballs pitched by a machine have a horizontal velocity of 30 meters/second. The machine accelerates the baseball from 0 meter
Yuliya22 [3333]
Utilizing the equation F = ma, where F represents the force applied by the machine, A denotes acceleration (equivalent to v/t, with v as velocity and t as time), and M symbolizes mass, we can calculate as follows: F = mv/t. Thus, F = (0.15kg) (30 – 0 m/s) / 0.5 s, resulting in F = 9 N.

The iron ball shown is being swung in a vertical circle at the end of a 0.7-m string. how slowly can the ball go through its top
Keith_Richards [3271]
<span>A centripetal force maintains an object's circular motion. When the ball is at the highest point, we can assume that the ball's speed v is such that the weight of the ball matches the required centripetal force to keep it moving in a circle. Hence, the string will not become slack. centripetal force = weight of the ball m v^2 / r = m g v^2 / r = g v^2 = g r v = sqrt { g r } v = sqrt { (9.80~m/s^2) (0.7 m) } v = 2.62 m/s Thus, the minimum speed for the ball at the top position is 2.62 m/s.</span>
