Answer:
<u></u>
- <u>1. The potential energy of the swing is the greatest at the position B.</u>
- <u>2. As the swing moves from point B to point A, the kinetic energy is increasing.</u>
Explanation:
Even though the syntax of the text is not completely clear, likely because it accompanies a drawing that is not included, it results clear that the posittion A is where the seat is at the lowest position, and the position B is upper.
The gravitational <em>potential energy </em>is directly proportional to the height of the objects with respect to some reference altitude. Thus, when the seat is at the position A the swing has the smallest potential energy and when the seat is at the <em>position B the swing has the greatest potential energy.</em>
Regarding the forms of energy, as the swing moves from point B to point A, it is going downward, gaining kinetic energy (speed) at the expense of the potential energy (losing altitude). When the seat passes by the position A, the kinetic energy is maximum and the potential energy is miminum. Then the seat starts to gain altitude again, losing the kinetic energy and gaining potential energy, up to it gets to the other end,
Hi!
Mechanical advantage is defined as the<em> ratio of force produced by an object to the force that is applied to it.</em>
In our case, this would be the ratio of the force applied by the claw hammer on the nail to the force Joel applies to the claw hammer, which is
160:40 or 4:1
So the mechanical advantage of the hammer is four.
Hope this helps!
Answer: There are many possible elements, and they are all in the same vertical column as bromine.
Explanation:
In a periodic table, the elements are arranged according to the atomic number. The elements arranged in the same vertical column (known as groups) have same valence configuration and therefore have same chemical properties. Hence, there would be more possible elements having same chemical properties in the same vertical column (group) as Bromine.
Answer:
Yes, ultraviolet light can turn a rubber into solid due to prolong exposure.
Explanation:
A rubber is a material with an elastic property, causing it to be deform by an external force but takes its shape when the force is removed. Light is an electromagnetic wave which causes the sensation of vision. It transfers energy to a medium during propagation through the medium.
Generally, most light do not cause hardness of a rubber. But an ultraviolet light can cause rubber to become solid over a period of time. This is possible if there is a prolong exposure of the rubber, and because of the evaporation of volatiles in the polymer material. Ultraviolet light are known to cause a rubber to become solid.
Momentum is conserved.
p = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = constant
Momentum before the collision(kick):
p = 80 * 0 + 4 * 0 = 0
Momentum after the collision:
p = 80 * v₁ + 4 * 15 = 0
Solve for v₁.
