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.

In a second order lever system the force ratio is 2.5, the load is at the distance of 0.5m from the fulcrum find distance of eff
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

1.25 m

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Force ratio = 2.5

Distance of load from the fulcrum = 0.5 m

Distance of effort =.?

The distance of the effort from the fulcrum can be obtained as illustrated below:

Force ratio = Distance of effort / Distance of load

2.5 = Distance of effort / 0.5

Cross multiply

Distance of effort = 2.5 × 0.5

Distance of effort = 1.25 m

Therefore, the distance of the effort from the fulcrum is 1.25 m

1. All the relevant resistors are in series, so the total (or equivalent) resistance is the sum of the resistances of the resistors: 20 Ω + 80 Ω + 50 Ω = 150 Ω [choice A].

2. The ammeter will read the current flowing through this circuit. We can find the ammeter reading using Ohm's law in terms of the electromotive force provided by the battery: I = ℰ/R = (30 V)(150 Ω) = 0.20 A [choice C].

3. The voltmeter will measure the potential drop across the 50 Ω resistor, i.e., the voltage at that resistor. We know from question 2 that the current flowing through the resistor is 0.20 A. So, from Ohm's law, V = IR = (0.20 A)(50 Ω) = 10. V, which will be the voltmeter reading [choice F].

4. Trick question? If the circuit becomes open, then no current will flow. Moreover, even if the voltmeter were kept as element of the circuit, voltmeters generally have a very high resistance (an ideal voltmeter has infinite resistance), so the current moving through the circuit will be negligible if not nil. In any case, the ammeter reading would be 0 A [choice B].

A circuit with resistive elements of 220, 100, 57, and 43 produce what total resistance?
Korvikt [17]

The total resistance is 420 ohm.

A circuit with resistive elements of 220, 100, 57, and 43 produce what total resistance  

 R= 220+ 100+ 57+ 43

    = 420 Ω

What is resistance and its types?

Resistance is a measure of the opposition to current flow in an electrical circuit also known as ohmic resistance or electrical resistance. Ohms are measured as resistance, symbolized by the Greek letter omega (Ω). The ratio of the applied voltage to the current through the material is then known as resistance.

What causes resistance?

An electric current flows when electrons move through a conductor, such as a metal wire. The moving electrons can collide with the ions in the metal. This makes it more difficult for the current to flow, and causes resistance.
