Alexxandr [17]2 years ago
3 0

The ice melts because Thermal energy from Jan’s hand is transferred to the ice.

<h3>What is thermal energy?</h3>

Thermal energy is the energy due to temperature difference.

Thermal energy flows from hotter to colder bodies.

The ice Jan is holding melts because heat is transferred from his hands t the ice.

In conclusion, thermal energy flow causes melting.

Pete Zaria applies a 4.0-N force to a 1.0-kg mug of root beer to accelerate it over a distance of 1.0-meter along the countertop
Orlov [11]

Answer:

Work done = 4 J

Final Kinetic Energy = 4 J

Explanation:

From the question,

Work done = force × distance

W = F×d................... Equation 1

Given: F = 4.0 N, d = 1.0 meter.

Substitute these values into equation 1

W = 4×1

W = 4 Joules.

Also,

Kenetic Energy = 1/2 × mass × velocity×velocity.

K.E = 1/2(mv²)........... (2).

But,

F = ma

Where F = 4 N, m = 1 kg.

a = 4/1 = 4 m/s².

Using,

v² = u² + 2as............. Equation 3

Where u = 0 m/s, a = 4 m/s², s = 1 m.

Substitute into equation 3

v² = 0² +2×4×1

v² = 8

v = √8 m/s.

Substitutting into equation 2

K.E = 1/2(1)(√8)²

K.E = 1/2(8)

K.E = 4 J.

Hence the work done and the Final Kinetic energy are thesame = 4 J

Is the air around us organic
Dvinal [7]
Organic air? The definition of organic (from google) is: of, relating to, or derived from living matter. Air isn't living matter. Air can come from plants that are made from organic substances... Gases can pollute our air... but from my knowledge, I don't believe there that there is 'organic air'

The drawing shows a model for the motion of the human forearm in throwing a dart. Because of the force M applied by the triceps
Serga [27]

Answer:

464.3 N

Explanation:

Given parameters are:

I = 0.065 kg*m^2

L = 0.025 m

R = 0.28 m

v_0 = 0 m/s

v_f = 5 m/s

t = 0.1 s

v_f=v_0+at=at

Hence, a=v_f/t

We must connect two torque equations to find the answer.

\tau=LM=I\alpha

Where \alpha =\frac{a}{R} =\frac{v_f}{Rt}

Hence, LM=I\frac{v_f}{Rt}

Thus, M = \frac{Iv_f}{LRt} = \frac{0.065*5}{0.025*0.28*0.1} =464.3 N

Which occurs when a wave is reflected?
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer: The wave can flip upside down.

Reflection is the bending of a wave when it cannot pass through. For example, plain mirrors which are flat, a ray of light hits the mirror and is reflected from the mirror since it cannot pass through  

When reflection occurs the speed and frequency of the wave does not change but the wave is flipped upside down.

The speed does not change because speed is affected by the change in medium the frequency also remains the same since the energy of the wave does not change.
