The most significant change in the comet's energy as it moves from point D to point A KE increases, GPE decreases.Option C is correct.

<h3>What are comets?</h3>

Comets are frozen leftovers from the formation of the solar system composed of dust, rock, and ice.

They range from a few miles to tens of miles wide, but as they orbit closer to the Sun, they heat up and spew gases and dust into a glowing head that can be larger than a plane.

As the comet transitions from point D to point A, the biggest energy shift is seen. GPE declines as KE rises. The right answer is C.

Hence option C is correct.

A particle moves according to the equation x = 11t^2, where x is in meters and t is in seconds.
Savatey [412]
We are given the equation:

<span>x = 11t^2
</span>
We use that equation to calculate for the distance traveled.
For (a)

At t=2.20 sec,    
                             x =53.24 meters

At t=2.95 sec,   
                             x =95.73 meters

Velocity = (95.73 meters - 53.24<span> meters) / (2.95 s - 2.20 s )  = 56.65 m/s

</span>For (b)

At t=2.20 sec,    
                             x =53.24 meters

At t=2.40 sec,   
                             x =63.36 meters

Velocity = (63.36 meters - 53.24<span> meters) / (2.40 s - 2.20 s )  = 50.6 m/s</span>

A diver stands on a diving platform 10.0 m above the surface of a pool and leaps upward with an initial speed of 2.5 m/s. how fa
Alexus [3.1K]
<span>The diver is heading downwards at 12 m/s Ignoring air resistance, the formula for the distance under constant acceleration is d = VT - 0.5AT^2 where V = initial velocity T = time A = acceleration (9.8 m/s^2 on Earth) In this problem, the initial velocity is 2.5 m/s and the target distance will be -7.0 m (3.0 m - 10.0 m = -7.0 m) So let's substitute the known values and solve for T d = VT - 0.5AT^2 -7 = 2.5T - 0.5*9.8T^2 -7 = 2.5T - 4.9T^2 0 = 2.5T - 4.9T^2 + 7 We now have a quadratic equation with A=-4.9, B=2.5, C=7. Using the quadratic formula, find the roots, which are -0.96705 and 1.477251164. Now the diver's velocity will be the initial velocity minus the acceleration due to gravity over the time. So V = 2.5 m/s - 9.8 m/s^2 * 1.477251164 s V = 2.5 m/s - 14.47706141 m/s V = -11.97706141 m/s So the diver is going down at a velocity of 11.98 m/s Now the negative root of -0.967047083 is how much earlier the diver would have had to jump at the location of the diving board. And for grins, let's compute how fast he would have had to jump to end up at the same point. V = 2.5 m/s - 9.8 m/s^2 * (-0.967047083 s) V = 2.5 m/s - (-9.477061409 m/s) V = 2.5 m/s + 9.477061409 m/s V = 11.97706141 m/s And you get the exact same velocity, except it's the opposite sign. In any case, the result needs to be rounded to 2 significant figures which is -12 m/s</span>

An iron wire has length 8.0m and a diameter 0.50mm. The sir has a resistance R.
Rudik [331]
The re<span>sistance of the second wire is 16 R.
where R is the resistance of the first wire.

R = </span>ρ\frac{l}{A}
where l = length of the wire
A = area of the wire
A = \pi r^{2} where, r = \frac{diameter of wire}{2}

Thus, on finding the ratio of resistance of the two wires, we get,

\frac{R1}{R2} =  \frac{l1A2}{l2A1}

here, R1 = R
l1 = 8m
l2 = 2m
A1=π0.25^{2}
A1=π0.50^{2}

we get. R2 = 16R
