Answer:

<em>In physics, energy is the quantitative property that must be transferred to an object in order to perform work on, or to heat, the object. Energy is a conserved quantity; the law of conservation of energy states that energy can be converted in form, but not created or destroyed.</em>

Explain why ice cubes formed from water of a glacier freeze at a higher temperature than ice cubes

ahrayia [7]

Because icebergs contains more molecules, and tempature measures. Heat is the energy of that motion. So there forward because there are more molecules in a iceberg then a ice cube

Answer:

circuit breaker

Explanation:

A circuit breaker is a device used for electrical safety. It consists of a switch designed to protect an electrical circuit from damage that may result from heating due to overload in the circuit.

Its basic function is to interrupt current flow through its switch that consists of metal stripe which bends when it gets hot.

Fuse has similar action with circuit breaker, the only difference is that fuse can only be used once because it melts when it gets hot.

Therefore, the correct answer is "circuit breaker"

Projectiles that strike objects are good examples of inelastic collisions. A 0.1 kg nail driven by a gas powered nail driver col

Ratling [72]

In an inelastic collision, only momentum is conserved, while energy is not conserved.

1) Velocity of the nail and the block after the collision
This can be found by using the total momentum after the collisions:
$p_f=(m+M)v_f=4.8 kg m/s$
where
m=0.1 kg is the mass of the nail
M=10 kg is the mass of the block of wood
Rearranging the formula, we find $v_f$ , the velocity of the nail and the block after the collision:
$v_f= \frac{p_f}{m+M}= \frac{4.8 kg m/s}{0.1 kg+10 kg}= 0.48 m/s$

2) The velocity of the nail before the collision can be found by using the conservation of momentum. In fact, the total momentum before the collision is given only by the nail (since the block is at rest), and it must be equal to the total momentum after the collision:
$p_i = mv_i = p_f$
Rearranging the formula, we can find $v_i$ , the velocity of the nail before the collision:
$v_i = \frac{p_f}{m}= \frac{4.8 kg m/s}{0.1 kg}=48 m/s$

What type of disorder is schizophrenia?

Oksana_A [137]

The correct answer is A because the main disorder is schizophrenia. It includes all the previous subtypes: catatonic, disorganized, paranoid, residual, and undifferentiated. It's a psychosis, which means that what seems real to you isn't.
