Answer:

Answer is option b) 2.97m

Explanation:

With the relationship between the force exerted by the runner and the mass that it has, I can determine the acceleration it will have:

F= m × a ⇒ a= (650 kg ×(m/s^2)) / (70kg)= 9.286 (m/s^2)

With the acceleration that prints the force exerted and the time I can determine the distance traveled in the interval:

Distance= (1/2) × a × t^2 = (1/2) × 9.286 (m/s^2) × ((0.8s)^2)= 2.97m

Go to the roller coaster simulation and click on the "launch" button. Pay attention to the pie chart as the roller coaster moves
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

The kinetic energy INCREASES as the roller coaster goes downhill.

Kinetic energy is greatest at POINT 2

Potential energy is greatest at POINT 1

Kinetic energy is decreasing while potential energy is increasing between points 3 AND 4

Which chart comes closest to the relationship between kinetic energy and potential energy at point 6 - CHART OF ANY POINT IN THE SAME HEIGHT AS OF 6

Explanation:

⇒As the potential energy increases , kinetic energy decreases.

⇒Potential energy here is gravitational potential energy.

⇒Thus, more we move away from the centre of the earth , more will be the gravitational potential energy or decrease in kinetic energy

Before you start taking measurements though, we’ll first make sure you understand the underlying concepts involved. By what meth
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

If they are metallic spheres  they are connected to earth and a charged body approaches

non- metallic (insulating) spheres in this case are charged by rubbing

Explanation:

For fillers, there are two fundamental methods, depending on the type of material.

If they are metallic spheres, they are connected to earth and a charged body approaches, this induces a charge of opposite sign and of equal magnitude, then it removes the contact to earth and the sphere is charged.

If the non- metallic (insulating) spheres in this case are charged by rubbing with some material or touching with another charged material, in this case the sphere takes half the charge and when separated each sphere has half the charge and with equal sign.

Which of the following statements best describes the characteristic of the restoring force in the spring-mass system described i
Grace [21]

Answer : The restoring force is directly proportional to the displacement of the block.

Explanation :

Restoring force is defined as the force that is exerted by the spring due to its mass.

Mathematically, the restoring force can be written as :

F\propto-x

F = - k x

where,

k is the spring constant.

x is the displacement caused due to the mass.

Negative sign shows that the force is acting in opposite direction.

So, it is clear that the restoring force is directly proportional to the displacement of the block.

Hence, the correct option is (b) " The restoring force is directly proportional to the displacement of the block ".

Waves that move the particles of the medium parallel to the direction in which the waves are traveling are called
Nikolay [14]

1. a. longitudinal waves.

There are two types of waves:

- Transverse waves: in transverse waves, the oscillations of the wave occur in a direction perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave

- Longitudinal waves: in longitudinal waves, the oscillations of the waves occur parallel to the direction in which the waves are travelling.

So, these types of waves are called longitudinal waves.


2. d. a medium

There are two types of waves:

- Electromagnetic waves: these waves are produced by the oscillations of electric and magnetic field, and they can travel both in a medium and also in a vacuum (they do not need a medium to propagate)

- Mechanical waves: these waves are produced by the oscillations of the particles in a medium, so they need a medium to propagate - therefore, the correct choice is d. a medium


3. a. AM/FM radio

Analogue signals consist of continuous signals, which vary in a continuous range of values. On the contrary, digital signals consist of discrete signals, which can assume only some discrete values. For AM and FM radios, signals are transmitted by using analogue signals.

A heat engine accepts 200,000 Btu of heat from a source at 1500 R and rejects 100,000 Btu of heat to a sink at 600 R. Calculate
diamong [38]

To solve the problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the conservation of energy through the heat transferred and the work done, as well as through the calculation of entropy due to heat and temperatra.

By definition we know that the change in entropy is given by

\Delta S = \frac{Q}{T}

Where,

Q = Heat transfer

T = Temperature

On the other hand we know that by conserving energy the work done in a system is equal to the change in heat transferred, that is

W = Q_{source}-Q_{sink}

According to the data given we have to,

Q_{source} = 200000Btu

T_{source} = 1500R

Q_{sink} = 100000Btu

T_{sink} = 600R

PART A) The total change in entropy, would be given by the changes that exist in the source and sink, that is

\Delta S_{sink} = \frac{Q_{sink}}{T_{sink}}

\Delta S_{sink} = \frac{100000}{600}

\Delta S_{sink} = 166.67Btu/R

On the other hand,

\Delta S_{source} = \frac{Q_{source}}{T_{source}}

\Delta S_{source} = \frac{-200000}{1500}

\Delta S_{source} = -133.33Btu/R

The total change of entropy would be,

S = \Delta S_{source}+\Delta S_{sink}

S = -133.33+166.67

S = 33.34Btu/R

Since S\neq   0 the heat engine is not reversible.

PART B)

Work done by heat engine is given by

W=Q_{source}-Q_{sink}

W = 200000-100000

W = 100000 Btu

Therefore the work in the system is 100000Btu
