The sister suddenly pushes her brother. As a result, the sister moves with kinetic energy k. The resulting kinetic energy of the brother is k/2.

<h3>What is kinetic energy?</h3>

The ability of an object to do work by virtue of its motion is called the kinetic energy.

A brother and sister are standing next to each other at rest on a surface of frictionless ice. The brother’s mass is exactly twice that of his sister’s.

If the sister's mass is m, the brother's mass is 2m.

The kinetic energy of sister is k =1/2 mv²,

The velocity will also get halved for brother, So, the kinetic energy of brother will be

k' = 1/2 (2m)(v/2)²

On comparing, the relation between the kinetic energy of brother and sister is k' = k/2

Thus, the resulting kinetic energy of the brother is k/2.

In lecture, it was discussed measurements of mass, temperature, time, volume and length. which of these is not an si base unit (
photoshop1234 [79]

From the options provided in the question, the measurement which is not an SI base unit is volume.

<h3>What is SI base unit?</h3>

This is referred to as the standard and fundamental unit of measurement of various quantities or variables which is defined arbitrarily and not by combinations of other units.

Volume is a quantity which is derived from the combination of lengths in a  three-dimensional manner which is why the formula is length× breadth×height and the unit is cm³. This is gotten from the combination of the unit of length which is cm.

This is therefore the reason why volume was chosen as the most appropriate choice.

It takes you 8.3 min to walk with an average velocity of 1.6 m/s to the north from the bus stop to the museum entrance. How far
Anarel [89]

solution:

1.6 m/s = 96 m/min (in other words, 1.6 m/s x 60 s/min)  

96 m/min x 8.3 min = 796.8 m

s=ut +\frac{1}{2}at^2\\there is no accleration mentioned so,\\s= uv\\8.3\times60=498(s)\\510\times1.6=816(m)

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

A.  he can hear music coming from the radio.

Explanation:

Jeff knows that the radio produces sound energy because he can hear music coming from the radio.

The music from the radio is a form of sound energy.

  • Sound energy is a form of energy dissipated from a body and can be discerned by humans.
  • Sound is a mechanical wave that requires a material medium for its propagation.
  • It travels by series of rarefaction and compression along its path of motion.
  • Since sound energy is an energy in motion, it is a kinetic energy.
  • It travels parallel to its source and therefore, it is a longitudinal wave.
