A car driving up a hill at a constant speed experiences no change in its kinetic energy while it's potential energy increases with increasing height, thus none of the options are correct.

Understanding the concept

Consider a car moving up the hill at a constant speed as shown in the figure below. The following forces act on the car:

  • N is the normal reaction force acting in an upward direction
  • f_s is the static friction force exerted due to friction between the road and the tires of the car
  • f_k is the rolling friction force in the direction opposing that of the  tire
  • mg is the force acting in a downward direction.
  • θ is the angle of inclination.

Here as the car is moving up the hill at a constant speed, the net force exerted on the car is zero. Also, the kinetic energy of the car will not change as its velocity is constant and the potential energy will change with increasing height. Thus, none of the given options are correct.

what do scientific models predict will happen to Earths oceans if current trends continue unmitigated?
Margaret [11]

Answer:

I think that the answer is "Coral bleaching will continue to harm aquatic organisms.

Explanation:

Global warming causes the ocean temperatures to rise and also its pH to decrease due to increased dissolved carbon dioxide in the waters.

Due to the unfavorable temperatures and pH, the algae dissociate from the symbiotic relationship with coral polyps (as a survival mechanism) hence leaving the coral white (coral bleaching).

The symbiotic relationship is key for the survival of the coral polyps hence most die following the dissociation.

This upsets the reef ecosystem and affects all aquatic organisms that depend on the reef.

10. A book has a mass of 400 g. The surface of the book in contact with a table has dimensions 0.10m x 0.20 m. The gravitational
morpeh [17]

The pressure exerted on the table due to the book is 200 N/m².

The given parameters;

  • <em>mass of the book, m = 400 g = 0.4 kg</em>
  • <em>dimension of the table,  = 0.10m x 0.20 m.</em>
  • <em>gravitational field strength g =  10 N/kg.</em>

The area of the table is calculated as follows;

A = 0.1 x 0.2 = 0.02 m²

The pressure exerted on the table due to the book is calculated as follows;

P = \frac{F}{A}

where;

  • <em>F is the force of the book due to its weight</em>

<em />

P =\frac{F}{A} = \frac{mg}{A} = \frac{0.4 \times 10}{0.02} = 200 \ N/m^2

Thus, the pressure exerted on the table due to the book is 200 N/m².

Why must batteries be connected when the terminal voltage across each of them was measured
photoshop1234 [79]

Batteries are connected when the terminal voltage across each of them was measured because batteries have an internal resistance that is in series with the load.

<h3>What is a chemical reaction?</h3>

A chemical reaction is a process in which one or more substances, also known as reactants are converted to one or more different substances, known as products. A chemical reaction rearranges the constituent atoms of the reactants to create different substances as products

In batteries, the chemical energy is converted into electrical energy with help of a chemical reaction happening inside the battery.

Batteries and other power sources have an internal resistance that runs parallel to the load. The overall resistance of the path of the electron flow inside the source constitutes the internal resistance, which is not technically a resistor. Usually, internal resistance is extremely minimal.

Thus, considering the internal resistance of the batteries, the terminal voltage across each of them was measured.
