The kinetic energy gained by the air molecules is 0.0437 J                

<h3 />

Given:

Mass of a coffee filter, m = 1.5 g

Height from which it is dropped, h = 3 m

Speed at ground, v = 0.7 m/s

Initially, the coffee filter has potential energy. It is given by :

P =mgh

P = 1.5 × 10⁻³ kg × 9.8 m/s² × 3m

P = 0.0441 J

Finally, it will have kinetic energy. It is given by :

E= \frac{1}{2} mv^{2}

E= \frac{1}{2}×1.4 × 10⁻³ × (0.7)²

E = 0.000343 J

The  kinetic energy Kair did the air molecules gain from the falling coffee filter is :

E = 0.000343 -  0.0441

  = 0.0437 J

So, the kinetic energy Kair did the air molecules gain from the falling coffee filter is 0.0437 J

K-2/5=11k literal equations
krek1111 [17]
-2/5 = 11k - k
-2/5 = 10k
-2/5/10 = k
-2/5 * 10 = k
-2/50 = k
k = -1/25.

-1/25 - 2/5 = 11k is true.

What do nuclear fission and nuclear fusion have in common?
adoni [48]

Answer:

Both fission and fusion are nuclear reactions that produce energy, but the applications are not the same. Fission is the splitting of a heavy, unstable nucleus into two lighter nuclei, and fusion is the process where two light nuclei combine together releasing vast amounts of energy

drek231 [11]

Answer:The rate of ejection of photoelectrons will increase

Explanation:

If the frequency of incident monochromatic light is held constant and its intensity is increased, the rate of ejection of photoelectrons from the metal surface increases with increase in intensity of the monochromatic light. More current flows due to more ejection of photoelectrons.
