Answer: The correct answer is option C.

Explanation:

Electrical energy is an energy possessed by the electrical charges in motion.

Heat energy is an energy due to the motion of particles like atoms, ions etc in solid , liquid and gases .

In an electric kettle:

Electric energy → Heat energy   (Law of conservation Energy)

In an electric kettle electric energy is changing into heat energy which results in heating up of water present in side it.The electric energy from the power source is transforming into heat energy which gets transferred to water molecules.

Hence, the correct answer is option C.

Consider the Bohr energy expression (Equation 30.13) as it applies to singly ionized helium He+ (Z = 2) and an ionized atom with
ella [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Bohr's energy expression is as follows

E_n = 13.6 z² /n² where z is atomic no and n is principal quantum no of the atom .

z for helium is 2 and for ionised atom is 5 . Let energy of n₁ level of He is equal to energy level n₂ of ionised atom

so

13.6 x 2² / n₁² = 13.6 x 5² / n₂²

n₁ / n₂ = 2/5 , ie 2nd energy level of He matches 5 th energy level of ionised atom .

For quantum numbers less than or equal to 9 , If we take n₁ = 8 for He

Putting it in the equation above

2² / 8² = 5² / n₂²

n₂ = 5 x 8 / 2

= 20 .

energy

= -  13.6 x2² / 8²

= -  0.85 eV .

Carts A and B are identical and are moving toward each other on a track. The speed of cart A is v, while the speed of cart B is
borishaifa [10]

Answer: k= \frac{5mv^{2} }{2}

Explanation:

Recall that the formula for kinetic energy is given below as

k = \frac{mv^{2} }{2}

where k=kinetic energy (joules), m= mass of object (kg), v= velocity of object m/s)

For cart A

m_{a} = mass of cart A

v_{a} = v = velocity of cart A

K.E_{a} = kinetic energy of cart A

hence, K.E_{a} = \frac{m_{a}v^{2}  }{2}

For cart B

m_{b} = mass of cart B

v_{b} = 2v = velocity of cart B

K.E_{b} = kinetic energy of cart B

hence, K.E_{b} = \frac{m_{b}(2v^{2}) }{2} = 2m_{b} v^{2}

from the question, both cart are identical which implies they have the same mass i.e m_{a} = m_{b} = m which implies that

K.E_{a}= \frac{mv^{2} }{2} and K.E_{b}  =2mv^{2}

The total kinetic energy K is the sum of cart A and cart B kinetic energy

K=K.E_{a} + K.E_{b}

K=\frac{mv^{2} }{2} + 2mv^{2}

hence

K=\frac{5mv^{2} }{2}

An air-track cart with mass m1=0.28kg and initial speed v0=0.75m/s collides with and sticks to a second cart that is at rest ini
arsen [322]
Kinetic energy is calculated through the equation,

   KE = 0.5mv²

At initial conditions,

  m₁:  KE = 0.5(0.28 kg)(0.75 m/s)² = 0.07875 J

  m₂ : KE = 0.5(0.45 kg)(0 m/s)² = 0 J

Due to the momentum balance,

   m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = (m₁ + m₂)(V)

Substituting the known values,

   (0.29 kg)(0.75 m/s) + (0.43 kg)(0 m/s) = (0.28 kg + 0.43 kg)(V)

   V = 0.2977 m/s

The kinetic energy is,
   KE = (0.5)(0.28 kg + 0.43 kg)(0.2977 m/s)²
   KE = 0.03146 J

The difference between the kinetic energies is 0.0473 J.

1. A 930-kg car traveling 56 km/h comes to a complete stop in 2.0 s. What is the
Juli2301 [7.4K]

The force exerted on the car during this stop is 6975N

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given-

Mass, m = 930kg

Speed, s = 56km/hr = 56 X 5/18 m/s = 15m/s

Time, t = 2s

Force, F = ?

F = m X a

F = m X s/t

F = 930 X 15/2

F = 6975N

Therefore, the force exerted on the car during this stop is 6975N

A fly has a mass of 1 gram at rest. how fast would it have to be traveling to have the mass of a large suv, which is about 3000
Zigmanuir [339]

We solve this using special relativity. Special relativity actually places the relativistic mass to be the rest mass factored by a constant "gamma". The gamma is equal to 1/sqrt (1 - (v/c)^2). <span>

We want a ratio of 3000000 to 1, or 3 million to 1. 

</span>

<span>Therefore:
3E6 = 1/sqrt (1 - (v/c)^2) 
1 - (v/c)^2 = (0.000000333)^2 
0.99999999999999 = (v/c)^2 
0.99999999999999 = v/c 
<span>v= 99.999999999999% of the speed of light ~ speed of light
<span>v = 3 x 10^8 m/s</span></span></span>
