Which of the following does NOT describe the conversion of potential to kinetic energy? Question 12 options:

Physics
1 answer:
Marianna [84]3 years ago
6 0

The option “The sum emitting light energy” does not describe the conversion of potential energy to kinetic energy.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation: </u>

The potential energy, the object's energy at rest while the kinetic energy is the energy the object in motion. So among the options given, a rocket leaving the Earth's atmosphere consists of conversion of potential energy as the thrusting force to kinetic energy of the movement of the rocket to space.

Similarly the stretching of rubber band is a form of elastic potential energy and when it is released, the band will vibrate which will be the converted kinetic energy.

Also, the avalanche is the falling of ice berg which were once in rest, so the potential energy of the ice berg will get converted to kinetic energy during avalanche.

The option that is the sun emitting light does not convert potential to kinetic energy, instead it converts potential to light energy.

A(n) 28.3 g bullet is shot into a(n) 5004 g wooden block standing on a frictionless surface. The block, with the bullet in it, a
Natali [406]

Answer:

the speed of the bullet before striking the block is 302.3 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the bullet, m₁ = 28.3 g = 0.0283 kg

mass of the wooden block, m₂ = 5004 g = 5.004 kg

initial velocity of the block, u₂ = 0

final velocity of the bullet-wood system, v = 1.7 m/s

let the initial velocity of the bullet before striking the block = u₁

Apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum to determine the initial velocity of the bullet.

m₁u₁  +  m₂u₂  =  v(m₁  +  m₂)

0.0283u₁  + 5.004 x 0   =  1.7(0.0283  +  5.004)

0.0283u₁   =   8.5549

u₁ = 8.5549 / 0.0283

u₁ = 302.3 m/s

Therefore, the speed of the bullet before striking the block is 302.3 m/s.

In which of the following processes does the molecules become more orderly?A) water freezing B) ice melting C) water evaporating
Sliva [168]

A) Water freezing

This is called the process of turning water as a liquid to its solid form which is ice.

Ice is almost together as one unlike liquid. This is why the molecules are more orderly.

The process of freezing is exothermic which means the heat has to be removed in the process.

Pls help A ball rolls horizontally off a 100-meter-tall cliff at 40 meters per second. How far does the ball travel horizontally
svet-max [94.6K]

First find the time it takes for the ball to reach the ground using the vertical component of its position vector:

y=y_0+v_{0y}t+\dfrac12a_yt^2

\implies0=100\,\mathrm m+\dfrac12\left(-9.8\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)t^2

\implies t=4.52\,\mathrm s

Meanwhile, the horizontal component of the ball's position vector is

x=x_0+v_{0x}t+\dfrac12a_xt^2

\implies x=\left(40\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)t

After about 4.52 s, the ball has traveled a horizontal distance of

x=\left(40\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)(4.52\,\mathrm s)=180.8\,\mathrm m

which you would round to 200 m, so the answer is B.
