As a bug drops vertically from a point meters above a bush to a leaf on the bush, its gravitational potential energy Ug(y) 1. re

mains constant. 2. increases by the amount of work you would have to do against gravity to carry the bug from the leaf to its original position. 3. increases by the amount of work gravity does on the bug as it drops. 4. decreases by the magnitude of the amount of work gravity does on the bug as it drops.

Answer:

4. decreases by the magnitude of the amount of work gravity does on the bug as it drops

Explanation:

Potential energy increases the higher it gets from it's starting point. For this question the starting point would be the bush and the bug is a certain point above it so it has a lot of potential energy. The gravitational potential energy decreases as it drops and gets closer to the leaf on the bush.

The late news reports the story of a shooting in the city. Investigators think that they have recovered the weapon and they run
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

50000 N

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass (m) of bullet = 0.050 kg

velocity (v) = 400 m/s

Distance (s) = 0.080 m

Force (F) =?

Next, we shall determine the acceleration of the bullet. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 400 m/s

Distance (s) = 0.080 m

Acceleration (a) =?

v² = u² + 2as

400² = 0 + (2 × a × 0.08)

160000 = 0 + 0.16a

160000 = 0.16a

Divide both side by 0.16

a = 160000 / 0.16

a = 1×10⁶ m/s²

Finally, we shall determine the force exerted by the bullet on the target. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (m) of bullet = 0.050 kg

Acceleration (a) of bullet = 1×10⁶ m/s²

Force (F) =?

F = ma

F = 0.050 × 1×10⁶

F = 50000 N

Thus, the bullet exerted a force of 50000 N on the target.

A harmonic wave travels in the positive x direction at 6 m/s along a taught string. A fixed point on the string oscillates as a
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

Amplitude, A = 0.049 meters

Explanation:

Given that,

A harmonic wave travels in the positive x direction at 6 m/s along a taught string. A fixed point on the string oscillates as a function of time according to the equation :

y = 0.049 \cos(7t) .......(1)

The general equation of a wave is given by :

y=A\cos(\omega t) .......(2)

A is amplitude of wave

On comparing equation (1) and (2) we get :

A = 0.049 meters

So, the amplitude of the wave is 0.049 meters.

At t1, Car A and car B are each located at position xo moving forward at speed v. At t2, car A is located at position 2xo moving
wel

Answer:

the average velocity of car A between t1 and t2greater is greater than the average velocity of B berween t1 and t2

Explanation:

Velocity is displacement over time,

Displacement is the distance covered relative to the initial starting position

For A:

at time ti, A moved from Xo to 2Xo, displacement is 2Xo.

at time t2 a moves with speed 3V, hence, his new position will be 3Xo from 2Xo which will be at 5Xo. A's displacement is 5Xo from starting point.

For B:

at time ti, B moved from Xo to 2Xo, displacement is 2Xo.

at time t2 a moves with speed V in the opposite position so he'll be back to his starting point, hence, his new position will be at Xo. A's displacement is 0 from his starting point.
