First of all the kinetic energy is when the particles move in continuous random motion.

If the temperature is high the colliding particles will collide more. and if the temperature is low the colliding particles will collide less.

Low temperature result in low kinetic energy
High temperature result in high kinetic energy

Absolute zero is the point where where all molecules have no kinetic energy. It is a theoretical value (it has never been reached).

The Kelvin temperature scale is based on absolute zero being the lowest possible temperature that could theoretically be reached. That is why there is no such thing as a negative Kelvin temperature value.

When a circuit is complete, or closed, electrons can flow from one end of a battery all the way around, through the wires, to the other end of the battery. Along its way, it will carry electrons to electrical objects that are connected to it – like the light bulb – and make them work!

A thin rod of length 1.4 m and mass 140 g is suspended freely from one end. It is pulled to one side and then allowed to swing l

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

a The kinetic energy is $KE = 0.0543 J$

b The height of the center of mass above that position is $h = 1.372 \ m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The length of the rod is $L = 1.4m$

The mass of the rod $m = 140 = \frac{140}{1000} = 0.140 \ kg$

The angular speed at the lowest point is $w = 1.09 \ rad/s$

Generally moment of inertia of the rod about an axis that passes through its one end is

$I = \frac{mL^2}{3}$

Substituting values

$I = \frac{(0.140) (1.4)^2}{3}$

$I = 0.0915 \ kg \cdot m^2$

Generally the kinetic energy rod is mathematically represented as

$KE = \frac{1}{2} Iw^2$

$KE = \frac{1}{2} (0.0915) (1.09)^2$

$KE = 0.0543 J$

From the law of conservation of energy

The kinetic energy of the rod during motion = The potential energy of the rod at the highest point

Therefore

$KE = PE = mgh$

$0.0543 = mgh$

$h = \frac{0.0543}{9.8 * 0.140}$

$h = 1.372 \ m$

Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

$\beta = 41.68°$

Explanation:

according to snell's law

$\frac{n_w}{n_g} = \frac{sin\alpha}{sin30 }$

refractive index of water n_w is 1.33

refractive index of glass n_g is 1.5

$sin\alpha = \frac{n_w}{n_g}* sin30$

$sin\alpha = 0.443$

now applying snell's law between air and glass, so we have

$\frac{n_g}{n_a} = \frac{sin\alpha}{sin\beta}$

$sin\beta = \frac{n_g}{n_a} sin\alpha$

$\beta = sin^{-1} [\frac{n_g}{n_a}*sin\alpha]$

we know that $sin\alpha = 0.443$

$\beta = 41.68°$

Explanation:

Frequency shift is given as

={ ( Vsound +V/ V sound -V) -1}f emitted

= { 1540+4E-4/1540-4E)-1) 2*10^6

= 1Hz
