A. 0.5kg
To get this answer you need to follow the equation of KE=0.5*mv^2
But we don't have the m part in the equation. So just plug in the numbers to see which works best, though I can tell you before we do that the answer would be a.
As you may know, gravity, is a force of 9.8 m/s. And we want to get 9.8 Joules. So if we take a half a kg stone, release it at one meter, we get half of the normal gravity pull, 4.90 Joules. That means if we take half a kg stone and drop it at a doubled height, we get 9.8 Joules.
That is also to say that if we have a 1kg stone and drop it at one meter you will get the normal pull of gravity in Joules, 9.8J.
Be careful though, this does not mean if you drop a 1kg stone and a .5 kg stone the 1kg will hit first. This simply means that the 1kg stone will have twice the Joules that the .5kg stone has.
To answer that question, we don't care what the highest and lowest
levels of the wave are, or how far apart they are. We only need to be
able to identify the highest point on the wave, and keep track of how
often those pass by us.
You said it takes 4 seconds for a complete wave to pass by.
Through the sheer power of intellect, I'm able to take that information
and calculate that 1/4 of the wave passes by in 1 second.
There's your frequency . . . 1/4 per second, or 0.25 Hz.
Answer:
4.0 m/s
Explanation:
The motion of the diver is the motion of a projectile: so we need to find the horizontal and the vertical component of the initial velocity.
Let's consider the horizontal motion first. This motion occurs with constant speed, so the distance covered in a time t is

where here we have
d = 3.0 m is the horizontal distance covered
vx is the horizontal velocity
t = 1.3 s is the duration of the fall
Solving for vx,

Now let's consider the vertical motion: this is an accelerated motion with constant acceleration g=9.8 m/s^2 towards the ground. The vertical position at time t is given by

where
h = 4.0 m is the initial height
vy is the initial vertical velocity
We know that at t = 1.3 s, the vertical position is zero: y = 0. Substituting these numbers, we can find vy

So now we can find the magnitude of the initial velocity:

Upstream speed = S - 1
Downstream speed = S + 1
Average speed = total distance / total time
Average speed = (S - 1) + (S + 1) / 2
= S
S = 6 miles / 4 hours
S = 1.5 miles per hour
Answer:
B it decreases
Explanation:
the movement of a positive test charge in the direction of an electric field would be like a mass falling downward within Earth's gravitational field. Both movements would be like going with nature and would occur without the need of work by an external force. This motion would result in the loss of potential energy
