Answer:

216,890 J

Explanation:

We first define the Kinetic Energy Formula:

K.E =

$\frac{1}{2} m {v}^{2}$

where m is the mass of the object in kg, and v is the velocity in m/s.

Given from the information from the question, we substitute the values in to find K.E.

K.E of car =

$\frac{1}{2} (820) {(23)}^{2} \\ = 216890 \: joules$

Note that the SI unit for Energy is Joules or J.

How does the intensity of a sound wave change if the distance from the

Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

The new intensity decreases by a factor of 16.

Explanation:

The intensity of sound wave is given by :

$I=\dfrac{P}{A}$

P is power

A is area

$I=\dfrac{P}{4\pi r^2}$

$I\propto \dfrac{1}{r^2}$ , r is distance from the source

If the distance from the source is increased by a factor of 4, r' = 4r

So,

$I'=\dfrac{1}{r'^2}\\\\I'=\dfrac{1}{(4r)^2}\\\\I'=\dfrac{1}{16}\times \dfrac{1}{r^2}\\\\I'=\dfrac{I}{16}$

So, the new intensity decreases by a factor of 16.

Which of the following would decrease the magnetic field around a wire?

shusha [124]

The correct answer is
A. decreasing the current

In fact, the magnetic field produced by a current carrying wire is given by
 $B(r) = \frac{\mu_0 I}{2 \pi r}$
where
 $\mu_0$ is the vacuum permeability
I is the current in the wire
r is the distance from the wire at which the field is calculated

We see from the formula that the intensity of the field, B, is directly proportional to the current I, so if the current decreases, the magnetic field strength B decreases as well.

State ohm’s law Q.34.7

defon

Ohm's law states that: $V=RI$

Explanation:

Ohm's law states that in a conductor, the potential difference across the conductor is directly proportional to the current flowing through it. Mathematically,

$V \propto I$

where

V is the potential difference

I is the current

The constant of proportionality is called resistance (R), and it gives a measure of "how much the conductor opposes" to the flow of current. Therefore Ohm's law can be rewritten as

$V=RI$

where R is the resistance. By rewriting the equation as

$I=\frac{V}{R}$

we see that the larger the resistance, the lower the current in the conductor.

We can block light by placing obstacles in its path, but it’s much more difficult to block sound. Why?

Olin [163]

Sound spreads through some kind of medium. Most of the time the medium is usually air. Sound can go through walls, like when you are playing really loud music and the neighbors tell you its to loud, you can't block it because it can travel through objects. Light does not need a medium to travel with. if you put a light in a room with no windows and no cracks, and you seal off the door the light can't escape that room, but if you did the same thing with sound it would travel trough the walls.
