Kinetic energy is a form of mechanical energy.

Answer:  Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

Mechanical energy is the work done by the object which is related in terms of its motion. Potential and kinetic energy are the two types of energy used to define the energy of the object in rest and in motion.

At rest, potential energy of the object will be high and at motion kinetic energy will be high. Hence Option A,B and D are invalid.

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

a)v_{f}=0.88m/s

Explanation:

To solve this problem we use the Momentum's conservation Law, before and after the girl catch the ball:

\\ p_{1}=p_{2}\\m_{ball}*v_{o.ball}+m_{girl}*v_{o.girl} = m_{ball}*v_{f.ball} + m_{girl}*v_{f.girl}        (1)

At the beginning the girl is  stationary:

v_{o.girl}=0m/s       (2)

If the girl catch the ball, both have the same speed:

v_{f.girl}=v_{f.ball}=v_{f}       (3)

We replace (2) and (3) in (1):

m_{ball}*v_{o.ball} = (m_{ball}+m_{girl})*v_{f} \\

We can now solve the equation for v_{f}:

v_{f}=\frac{m_{ball}*v_{o.ball}}{(m_{ball}+m_{girl})}=\frac{15*4.7}{15+65}=0.88m/s

Imagine that the above hoop is a tire. the coefficient of static friction between rubber and concrete is typically at least 0.9.
Stels [109]
The hoop is attached.

Consider that the friction force is given by:
F = μ·N
   = μ·m·g·cosθ

We also know, considering the forces of the whole system, that:
F = -m·a + m·g·sinθ
and
a = (1/2)·<span>g·sinθ

Therefore:
</span>-(1/2)·m·g·sinθ + m·g·sinθ = <span>μ·m·g·cosθ
</span>(1/2)·m·g·sinθ = <span>μ·m·g·cosθ
</span>μ = (1/2)·m·g·sinθ / <span>m·g·cosθ
   = </span>(1/2)·tanθ

Now, solve for θ:
θ = tan⁻¹(2·μ)
   = tan⁻¹(2·0.9)
   = 61°

Therefore, the maximum angle <span>you could ride down without worrying about skidding is 61°.</span>

A flashlight beam makes an angle of 60 degrees with the surface of the water before it enters the water. in the water what angle
alexira [117]
<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>

= 22°

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • According to Snell's law, the ratio of the sine of the angle of incidence to the sine of the angle of refraction is a constant. The constant value is called the refractive index of the second medium with respect to the first.
  • Therefore; Sin i/Sin r = η

In this case; Angle of incidence = 90° -60° =30°, angle of refraction =? and η = 1.33

Thus;

Sin 30 / Sin r = 1.33

Sin r = Sin 30°/1.33

       = 0.3759

r = Sin^-1 0.3759

   = 22.08

   <u>≈ 22°</u>

Blizzard [7]
<h2>Answer: 117.626m/s</h2>

Explanation:

The escape velocity V_{esc} is given by the following equation:

V_{esc}=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R}}   (1)

Where:

G is the Gravitational Constant and its value is 6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}}

M  is the mass of the asteroid

R  is the radius of the asteroid

On the other hand, we know the density of the asteroid is \rho=3.84(10)^{8}g/m^{3} and its volume is V=2.17(10)^{12}m^{3}.

The density of a body is given by:

\rho=\frac{M}{V}  (2)

Finding M:

M=\rhoV=(3.84(10)^{8} g/m^{3})(2.17(10)^{12}m^{3})  (3)

M=8.33(10)^{20}g=8.33(10)^{17}kg  (4)  This is the mass of the spherical asteroid

In addition, we know the volume of a sphere is given by the following formula:

V=\frac{4}{3}\piR^{3}   (5)

Finding R:

R=\sqrt[3]{\frac{3V}{4\pi}}   (6)

R=\sqrt[3]{\frac{3(2.17(10)^{12}m^{3})}{4\pi}}   (7)

R=8031.38m   (8)  This is the radius of the asteroid

Now we have all the necessary elements to calculate the escape velocity from (1):

V_{esc}=\sqrt{\frac{2(6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}})(8.33(10)^{17}kg)}{8031.38m}}   (9)

Finally:

V_{esc}=117.626m/s This is the minimum initial speed the rocks need to be thrown in order for them never return back to the asteroid.

Which of these discoveries contradict components of Dalton’s atomic theory? Check all of the boxes that apply. Atoms contain sma
EastWind [94]

Explanation:

According to Dalton's atomic theory, all the atoms are individual, all the atoms of the same element are identical in properties and mass, the compound is formed from two or more kinds of the atoms, all the matter is made up of small atoms and the chemical reaction is a rearrangement of the atoms.

The discoveries which contradicts the components of Dalton's atomic theory from the given discoveries are:

Nuclear reactions can change an atom of one element into an atom of another element.

Atoms of a given element can have different numbers of neutrons.

Atoms contain smaller particles: protons, neutrons, and electrons.
