Answer:

All matter is made up of particles that are constantly moving. The motion of the particles results in kinetic energy. The part of total internal energy that can be transferred is thermal energy. As temperature increases, the particles in a substance move faster and have greater kinetic and thermal energy.

Answer:

Kinetic energy is the amount of energy a object has while it's in motion, and thermal energy is heat energy. In this case when the heat rises in substances for example a solid it will transform into a liquid causing the molecules to move faster which is a increase of kinetic energy.

Charge: A piece of plastic has a net charge of +2.00 μC. How many more protons than electrons does this piece of plastic have? (
snow_lady [41]

Answer

given,

net charge = +2.00 μC

we know,

1 coulomb charge =  6.28 x 10¹⁸electrons

1 micro coulomb  charge =  6.28 x 10¹⁸ x 10⁻⁶ electron

                                         = 6.28 x 10¹² electrons

2.00 μC = 2 x 6.28 x 10¹² electrons

              = 1.256 x 10¹³ electrons

since net charge is positive.

The number of protons should be 1.256 x 10¹³ more than electrons.

hence, +2.00 μC have 1.256 x 10¹³ more protons than electrons.

Springfield's "classic rock" radio station broadcasts at a frequency of 102.1 mhz. what is the length of the radio wave in meter
Mila [183]
The frequency of the radio wave is:
f=102.1 MHz = 102.1 \cdot 10^6 Hz

The wavelength of an electromagnetic wave is related to its frequency by the relationship
\lambda= \frac{c}{f}
where c is the speed of light and f the frequency. Plugging numbers into the equation, we find
\lambda= \frac{3 \cdot 10^8 m/s}{102.1 \cdot 10^6 Hz}= 2.94 m
and this is the wavelength of the radio waves in the problem.

Andy is waiting at the signal. As soon as the light turns green, he accelerates his car at a uniform rate of 8.00 meters/second2
Tatiana [17]
You can reason it out like this:

-- The car starts from rest, and goes 8 m/s faster every second.

-- After 30 seconds, it's going (30 x 8) = 240 m/s.

-- Its average speed during that 30 sec is  (1/2) (0 + 240) = 120 m/s

-- Distance covered in 30 sec at an average speed of 120 m/s

                                                                           =  3,600 meters .
___________________________________

The formula that has all of this in it is the formula for
distance covered when accelerating from rest:

       Distance = (1/2) · (acceleration) · (time)²

                       = (1/2) ·      (8 m/s²)     · (30 sec)²

                       =      (4 m/s²)          ·      (900 sec²)

                       =            3600 meters.

_________________________________

When you translate these numbers into units for which
we have an intuitive feeling, you find that this problem is
quite bogus, but entertaining nonetheless.

When the light turns green, Andy mashes the pedal to the metal
and covers almost 2.25 miles in 30 seconds.

How does he do that ?

By accelerating at 8 m/s².  That's about 0.82 G  !

He does zero to 60 mph in 3.4 seconds, and at the end
of the 30 seconds, he's moving at 534 mph ! 

He doesn't need to worry about getting a speeding ticket.
Police cars and helicopters can't go that fast, and his local
police department doesn't have a jet fighter plane to chase
cars with.

A man walks 30 m to the west, then 5 to the east in 45 seconds
exis [7]
His average speed is  (35m/45s) = 7/9 meters per second.

His average velocity is  (30m W + 5m E) / (45s) = 25 m/s West .
