Grade 6-7
1. A diver who climbs up to the 30 meter high dive
board gains 12000J of GPE. What is her mass?
2. A football kicked 11.5 meters in the air gains
63.25J of GPE. What is the mass of the football?
3. Explain, using calculations, why a pole vaulter
who competes on another planet wouldn't have
the same GPE as on Earth.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1. m  = 40 kg

2. m = 0.55 kg

3. Because of the different values of acceleration due to gravity, g, on the planet and the earth.

Explanation:

1. GPE = 12000 J

h = 30 meters

g = 10 m/[tex]s^{2}[/tex]

But,

GPE = mgh

where: m is the mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height.

12000 = m x 10 x 30

12000  = 300 m

m = [tex]\frac{12000}{300}[/tex]

   = 40 kg

The mass of the diver is 40 kg.

2. GPE = 63.25 J

h = 11.5 meters

g = 10 m/[tex]s^{2}[/tex]

GPE = mgh

63.25 = m x 10 x 11.5

63.25 = 115 m

m = [tex]\frac{63.25}{115}[/tex]

   = 0.55 kg

The mass of the ball is 0.55 kg.

3. The pole vaulter's GPE on the earth would not be the same as that on another planet due to the variation in the value of the acceleration due to gravity on the two planets, even if he cover the same height.

Given that: m = 60 kg, h = 25 m, determine the GPE on the earth that has g = 10 m/[tex]s^{2}[/tex], and another planet with g = 6.5 m/

Thus, on the earth;

GPE = mgh

       = 60 x 10 x 25

       = 15000

GPE = 15000 J

On the planet;

GPE = mgh

       = 60 x 6.5 x 25

       = 9750

GPE = 9750 J

A force of 162 N is applied to an object causing it to accelerate at a rate of 3.8 m/s^2. What is its mass?
A. 0.2 kg
B. 616 kg
C. 43 kg
D. 102 kg

Answers

Answer:

43 kg

Explanation:

Force (F) = 162 N

acceleration (a) = 3.8 m/s²

mass (m) = ?

We know

F = m * a

162 = m * 3.8

m = 162 / 3.8

m = 43 kg

It's mass is 43 kg.

What happens to the position of an object as an unbalanced force acts of it? Give an example

Answers

Answer:

When unbalanced forces act on an object at rest, the object will move. ... Second, when unbalanced forces act on a moving object, the velocity of the object will change. Remember that a change in velocity means a change in speed, direction or both speed and direction.........Eg.If you kick a football and it moves from one place to another, it means that unbalanced forces are acting upon it. Ball moves from one place to another after kicking it.

Answer:

unbalanced forces could change speed,direction

Explanation:

Example

if two people are pulling a rope and the other one is stronger the rope moves toward the stronger one cause the force is unbalanced

You push on a light object (small mass) with a certain amount of force and it moves. If you push just as hard on a heavier object (large mass) it will move _____ the light object. a. Faster than b. slower than c. the same as

Answers

Answer: B

Explanation:

It will move slower than the light the object. The equation is Newton's 2nd Law of F = ma. If the force is constant, and the mass changes to something larger, then the acceleration must become smaller. You could also just do this yourself, push two objects with your hands. The heavier one will move slower assuming you used the same amount of force

Clara made a chart to summarize some of the evidence that supports the big bang theory.

A 2 column table with 2 rows labeled evidence for the big bang theory. The left column is labeled category of evidence with entries redshift, cosmic microwave background radiation (CMB). The second column is labeled description with entries light source and observer move farther apart, light observed shifts to a longer wavelength, indicates receding galaxies, red-shifted to the microwave region, temperature much higher now than at time of big bang.

Which best describes Clara’s error?

During redshift, the light source and observer move closer together, not farther apart.
The CMB is blue-shifted, not red-shifted, to the microwave region.
The temperature of the CMB is cooler, not hotter, than at the time of the big bang.
The redshift indicates approaching, not receding, galaxies.

Answer:

C = 1.01

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass, m = 75 kg

The terminal velocity of the mass, [tex]v_t=60\ m/s[/tex]

Area of cross section, [tex]A=0.33\ m^2[/tex]

We need to find the drag coefficient. At terminal velocity, the weight is balanced by the drag on the object. So,

R = W

or

[tex]\dfrac{1}{2}\rho CAv_t^2=mg[/tex]

Where

[tex]\rho[/tex] is the density of air = 1.225 kg/m³

C is drag coefficient

So,

[tex]C=\dfrac{2mg}{\rho Av_t^2}\\\\C=\dfrac{2\times 75\times 9.8}{1.225\times 0.33\times (60)^2}\\\\C=1.01[/tex]

So, the drag coefficient is 1.01.

Explanation:

Studies and historical data show that the major cause of this is due to driver distraction. When driving many times a driver may look somewhere other than the road and get distracted which accidentally causes the driver to steer outside of the right shoulder of the pavement. This can also be due to the driver becoming tired/sleepy after driving for countless hours or even making a quick maneuver due to oncoming traffic getting too close. Regardless, all of these fall under driver distraction.

Acceleration is change in velocity over time

Change in velocity (Vf-Vi) 9.7m/s - 6.2m/s = 3.5 m/s

Acceleration = 3.5m/s / 8s = 0.4375 m/s^2
