Let's put the given values into the formula below and get the result;

  • K.E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

We know the numerical value of speed. We also know the mass. We can jump straight to the conclusion.

  • K.E=\frac{1}{2}(2kg)(5m/s)^2
  • =\frac{1}{2}(2kg)(25m^2/s^2)
  • =25m^2/s^2=25J

The Kinetic Energy is 25J.

If we want to accelerate an object, we must apply force on it, after applying Force some work has to be done in which energy should be transferred to the object. The energy is known as kinetic energy. The kinetic energy always depends on the mass and the velocity. It is denoted as K and the Si unit is Joules (J).

To calculate the Kinetic Energy,

       

           K= 1/2 mv^2

m = mass  

v = velocity

K = kinetic energy

In solving the above equation,

K = 1/2 x2 x 5^2

K = 5x5

K = 25

 

The Kinetic Energy is 25J.

Which property best makes radio waves safe for diagnosing illnesses through magnetic resonance imaging?
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

It is used in MRI because it does not damage cells

Radio waves are used for space research because they have very long wavelengths

Explanation:

Many parts of the electromagnetic spectrum are applied in clinical diagnosis and treatment of illnesses. However, these highly ionizing radiation damage cells and its dosage must be carefully managed to avoid creating radiation related health problems for the patients.

Radio waves can be used in MRI without issues because the energy of the radiation is not sufficient to cause damage to cells but is sufficient to provide images for the sake of medical diagnosis.

Secondly, radio waves have long wavelength. This property is suitable for long range

communication. Hence it can be used in space research

Explain why more stars are circumpolar for observers at higher latitudes.
PIT_PIT [208]

Explanation:

When you observe the night sky you will notice that the stars are moving. They rise from eastern horizon and set in the western horizon. It happens due to rotation of Earth. When observed closely you will notice that the all the stars seem to go around the pole star. Out of all the stars there are some stars which neither set not rise, such stars are called as Circumpolar stars. This means that they are always above the horizon. If we trace the path of such stars they will appear to make complete circle around the pole star.

Also, you will notice that the altitude of pole star (separation of pole star from the horizon in degrees) will depend on the location of observe on the Earth. This happens due to Earth being spherical. So if you are on equator the pole star will be on the horizon i.e. 0° altitude. If you are at Poles, altitude of the pole star will be 90°. Technically the altitude of pole star at any place on Earth is equal to the latitude of the place.

If the altitude of pole star varies and increases as you move towards higher latitude on Earth, the distance between horizon and pole star will also increase. This will result in more stars being circumpolar.

If you are at Poles, all the stars will be circumpolar and if you are at equator no star will be circumpolar.

A small object carrying a charge of -4.00 nC is acted upon by a downward force of 24.0 nN when placed at a certain point in an e
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

E  = -6 \  N/C

Generally given that the electric field is negative it mean that its direction is opposite to that of the force    

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The charge on the small object is Q = -4.00 \ nC =  -4.00 *10^{-9} \  C

   The force is  F  =  24  \ nN  =  24 *10^{-9} \  N

    Generally the magnitude of the electric  field is mathematically represented as

       E  =  \frac{F}{Q}

=>    E  =  \frac{ 24 *10^{-9}} {-4 *10^{-9 }}

=>     E  = -6 \  N/C

Generally given that the electric field is negative it mean that its direction is opposite to that of the force

Dry cells become soft even when not in use. Explain.

This is possible due to self-discharge. Very small internal currents inevitably occur in these cells over time and they will eventually exhaust the chemistry.
