Suppose an acorn with a mass of 3.17 g falls off a tree. At a particular moment during the fall, the acorn has a kinetic energy

of 0.119 J and a potential energy of 0.347 J with respect to the ground. How does the acorn's potential and kinetic energy change as it falls

Potential and kinetic energy both decrease with the acorn's falling potential and kinetic energy.

The acorn's potential energy is at its peak when it reaches the top of the tree, yet its kinetic energy is zero (i.e., it is not accelerating).

The height of the ball reduces along with the potential energy as the acorn tumbles down the tree, but the kinetic energy rises (energy due to motion)

The height will be 0 and the kinetic and potential energy will be zero at the ground. This demonstrates that as an item falls, both potential and kinetic energy are lost.

Two long straight wires are parallel and 8.6 cm apart. They are to carry equal currents such that the magnetic field at a point
Neko [114]

Answer:

(a) The current should be in opposite direction

(b) The current needed is 39.8 A

Explanation:

Part (a)

Based, on right hand rule, the current should be in opposite direction

Part (b)

given;

strength of magnetic field, B = 370 µT

distance between the two parallel wires, d = 8.6 cm

B = \frac{\mu_oI}{2\pi R}

At the center, the magnetic field strength is twice

B_c = 2(\frac{\mu_oI}{2\pi R}) =\frac{ \mu_oI}{\pi R}

R = d/2 = 8.6/2 = 4.3 cm = 0.043 m

B_c = \frac{ \mu_oI}{\pi R}\\\\I = \frac{B_c\pi R}{\mu_o} = \frac{370 *10^{-6}* \pi *0.043}{4\pi *10^{-7}}\\\\I = 39.8 \ A

Therefore, current needed is 39.8 A

Can anyone help me with this question please​
JulsSmile [24]

Explanation:

V=u+at

where,

v=final speed

u=initial speed,(starting speed)

a=acceleration

t=time

  1. v=u+at = 6=2+a*2

6=2+2a

2a=6-2

2a=4

a=4/2 = 2

a =2

2. to find time taken

v=u+at

25=5*2t

2t=25-5

2t=20

t=20/2

t=10sec

3. finding final speed

v=u+at

v=4+10*2

=4+20

v=24m/sec

5.v=u+at

=5+8*10

=5+80

V=85m/sev

6. v=u+at

8=u+4*2

8=u+8

U=8/8

u=1

these are your missing values

What are one of the main uses of this device ?<br><br> anwser A
Inessa [10]

One of the main uses of this device is to test a beam of charged particles

What is cathode ray tube?

The cathode ray tube determines the charge flowing in a gas. When an electric field is set up using metal electrodes, the cathode ray tends to bend towards the positive electrode.

This concludes that a charge and the electrodes present helps determine the charge of the beam of charged particle.

Thus, one of the main uses of this device is to test a beam of charged particles.

26. Which of the following is NOT a result of the Earth's precession?
ExtremeBDS [4]

The Earth's axis' orientation in space gradually shifts due to the precession.

Precession is the name given to this motion, which is characterized by a cyclic wobble in the direction of the Earth's axis of rotation over a period of 25,772 years. The third motion of the Earth to be discovered, following the much more evident daily rotation and yearly revolution, is precession. The axial tilt of the Earth gradually changes over time as a result of precession. The points on the Earth's orbit where the equinoxes and solstices fall will shift over time. As a result, 13,000 years from now, the location of the summer solstice will change to that of the winter solstice. The Earth's axis changes its direction due to precession. In relation to the stars, the celestial poles steadily shift.
