Answer:
Points downward, and its magnitude is 9.8 m/s^2
Explanation:
The motion of a projectile consists of two independent motions:
- A uniform horizontal motion, with constant velocity and zero acceleration. In fact, there are no forces acting on the projectile along the horizontal direction (if we neglect air resistance), so the acceleration along this direction is zero.
- A vertical motion, with constant acceleration g = 9.8 m/s^2 towards the ground (downward), due to the presence of gravity wich "pulls" the projectile downward.
The total acceleration of the projectile is given by the resultant of the horizontal and vertical components of the acceleration. But we said that the horizontal component is zero, therefore the total acceleration corresponds just to its vertical component, therefore it is a vector with magnitude 9.8 m/s^2 which points downward.
In general,
Power = (energy moved) / (time to move the energy) .
If it's mechanical power, then
Power = (work done) / (time to do the work) .
If it's electrical power, then it can be any one of these:
Power = (volts) x (amperes)
Power = (volts)² / (resistance, ohms)
Power = (amperes)² x (resistance, ohms) .
Whatever kind of energy you're dealing with, power always
turns out to be
(amount of energy produced, used, or moved)
divided by
(time taken to produce, use, or move the energy) .
Answer:
The necessary separation between the two parallel plates is 0.104 mm
Explanation:
Given;
length of each side of the square plate, L = 6.5 cm = 0.065 m
charge on each plate, Q = 12.5 nC
potential difference across the plates, V = 34.8 V
Potential difference across parallel plates is given as;
Where;
d is the separation or distance between the two parallel plates;
Therefore, the necessary separation between the two parallel plates is 0.104 mm
Answer:
<em>They represent kinetic energy</em>
Explanation:
<u>Kinetic Energy
</u>
A body can do work due to some of its attributes or states. For example, its mass can do work if used to provide energy, if the object is at a certain height respect to some reference level, it can do work when going downwards (potential energy), if the object moves at a certain speed, it can do work when transferring part of its speed to other objects. It's called kinetic energy and is given by
Both runners are moving in a horizontal path, thus they have kinetic energy, given by the above equation. If they could jump below ground level, then they will also have potential energy
