A kid on a playground swing makes a complete to-and-fro swing each 2 seconds.

sashaice [31]

Answer:

The frequency of the swing: 1/2 Hertz

The period is: 2 Seconds

Explanation:

The time the kid takes to make a complete to-and-fro swing = 2 seconds

The period, T, is the time it takes to make one complete cycle of an oscillatory motion, therefore, we have;

The frequency, f, is the number of cycles completed each second, therefore, we have;

The time for 1 cycle = 2 seconds

2 seconds = 1 cycle

Dividing both sides by 2 gives;

2/2 seconds = 1/2 cycles

2/2 = 1

In 2/2 = 1 seconds The number of cycles completed = 1/2 cycles

Therefore, the number of cycles completed per (one) second = 1/2 cycles

Therefore the frequency of the swing, f = 1/2 cycle/seconds = 1/2 Hertz

The period, T, is the time it takes to complete one to-and-fro swing which is one cycle which is 2 seconds

Therefore, the period is 2 Seconds.

-What can you say about the snowboarder’s kinetic energy as he moves?

Damm [24]

Answer:

His kinetic energy increases, potential energy decreases

The sum of kinetic and potential energy is a constant at any instant before he comes to rest.

Explanation:

Snowboarder is starting from a height and moving to the down direction. As he moves down his velocity increases, we know that kinetic energy is given by the expression $\frac{1}{2} mv^2$ , so as he moves his kinetic energy increases.

When the snowboarder is starting his potential energy is maximum(Potential energy = mgh), as he comes down his potential energy decreases.

Based on this we can conclude that the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy is a constant at any instant for a snowboarder before he comes to rest.

mgh+ $\frac{1}{2} mv^2$ = Constant

Scientists have designed solar cells to trap solar energy and convert it to _____ energy.

lapo4ka [179]

Scientists have designed solar cells to trap solar energy and convert it to D electrical energy. Its D because converting something has to do with recharging something and electronics have to charge. I hope I helped.

Imagine a 15 kg block moving with a velocity of 20 m/s to the left. Calculate the kinetic Energy of this block.

ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

3000 J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is:

KE = ½ mv²

If m = 15 kg and v = -20 m/s:

KE = ½ (15 kg) (-20 m/s)²

KE = 3000 J

ARRANGE THE STEPS IN ORDER TO DESCRIBE WHAT HAPPENS TO A GAS WHEN IT COOLS

vredina [299]

What happens to has when it cools is ...
Step 1) They will start to form liquids, like condensation.
Step 2) As liquids cool, they will turn into solids.
Step 3) As solids cool, they become more stable and solid.
