KE = 1/2 mv^2
in this case, the initial kinetic energy which is converted to heat is
KE = 1/2 1400 (12)^2
KE = 100,800 J
The equation for potential energy is denoted as;
Pe = mgh,
where m = the mass, g = acceleration due to gravity, and h = vertical height of the apple. We are given the units for everything but height, which is also what we are solving for. We can then algebraically rearrange our initial equation to solve for h;
h = (Pe)/(mg)
Plug in your given units, and solve!
Post-check:
h = Pe/mg
h = 175J/(0.36g)(-9.81m/s^2)
h = appr. 49.5 meters
Note: Potential energy is a vector quantity; the displacement of the apple will be a negative number, but the distance itself, a scalar quantity, will be the absolute value of that.
Answer:
'Incident rays that are parallel to the central axis are sent through a point on the near side of the mirror'.
Explanation:
The question is incomplete, find the complete question in the comment section.
Concave mirrors is an example of a curved mirror. The outer surface of a concave mirror is always coated. On the concave mirror, we have what is called the central axis or principal axis which is a line cutting through the center of the mirror. The points located on this axis are the Pole, the principal focus and the centre of curvature. <em>The focus point is close to the curved mirror than the centre of curvature.</em>
<em></em>
During the formation of images, one of the incident rays (rays striking the plane surface) coming from the object and parallel to the principal axis, converges at the focus point after reflection because all incident rays striking the surface are meant to reflect out. <em>All incident light striking the surface all converges at a point on the central axis known as the focus.</em>
Based on the explanation above, it can be concluded that 'Incident rays that are parallel to the central axis are sent through a point on the near side of the mirror'.
Answer:
a = w² r
Explanation:
In this exercise, indicate that the wheel has angular velocity w, the worm experiences the same angular velocity if it does not move, and has an acceleration towards the center of the circle, according to Newton's second law, called the centripetal acceleration.
a = v² / r
angular and linear variables are related
v = w r
we substitute
a = w² r
where r is the radius of the wheel
True, scientists often talk to each other to figure out if their results were similar and what they could have done better.
Although, talking to other scientists does have risks, other scientists could copy your work and further better it.
So, your final answer is TRUE, sorry for the long answer, I needed to have a word count about 20 characters and then I got carried away! lol
