Kinetic energy per unit of mass is

K=\frac{v^{2} }{2}

Given, v=3m/s^{2}

Therefore,

K=\frac{(3^{2} m/s^{2} )^2}{2}

K=4.5 J/kg

Now potential energy per unit mass is

p=g\times h

Given, h=90 m

Therefore,

p= 9.8m/s^2 \times 90

p=882.9 J/kg

Thus, total mechanical energy of the river water per unit mass is

T=K+p=(4.5+882.9)J/kg

T=887.9 J/kg

OR

T=0.887 kJ/kg

In a region of space where gravitational forces can be neglected, a sphere is accelerated by a uniform light beam of intensity 8
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is B

Explanation:

To calculate the acceleration we must use Newton's second law

      F = m a

      a = F / m

To calculate the force we use the defined pressure and the radiation pressure for an absorbent surface

       P = I / c        absorbent surface

       P = F / A

       F / A = I / c

       F = I A / c

The area of ​​area of ​​a circle is

      A = π r²

We replace

     F = I π r² / c

Let's calculate

     F = 8.0 10⁻³ π (1.0 10⁻⁶)²/3 10⁸

     F = 8.375 10⁻²³ N

Density is

      ρ = m / V

      m = ρ V

      m = ρ (4/3 π r³)

      m = 4500 (4/3 π (1 10⁻⁶)³)

      m = 1,885 10⁻¹⁴ kg

Let's calculate the acceleration

     a = 8.375 10⁻²³ / 1.885 10⁻¹⁴

     a = 4.44 10⁻⁹ m/s²               absorbent surface

The correct answer is B

Does the electrical conductivity of a wire affect the strength of an electromagnet?
Mkey [24]
The strength of the electromagnet depends directly on the
current (amps) in the wire that the coil is made out of. 
That current is going to be determined by the voltage of the
battery or power supply that powers the magnet, and by the
resistance of the wire.  So yes, the properties of the wire do
have a direct effect on the strength of the magnet.  If you
tried to make an electromagnet with a coil of wet spaghetti,
it would work, but you would need a humongous power supply
to get any significant strength out of the magnet.

How is energy related to the change of state represented by the model?
Aleks04 [339]
Atoms gain energy as a solid changes to a liquid. If Adams energy during a change of state, they pull together by attractive forces and become more organized.
