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.

On the ignition switch, the ACC position provides power to electrical equipment including lights, wipers, warning lights and radio, without turning on the engine.

ACC is an Autonomous cruise control or adaptive cruise control is a system for road vehicles that automatically adjusts the vehicle speed (can increase or decrease the speed) to maintain a safe distance from vehicles ahead.

There are also many other names of Autonomous cruise control such as active cruise control, intelligent cruise control, or radar cruise control.

A 72.8-kg swimmer is standing on a stationary 265-kg floating raft. The swimmer then runs off the raft horizontally with a veloc

nalin [4]

Answer:

-1.43 m/s relative to the shore

Explanation:

Total momentum must be conserved before and after the run. Since they were both stationary before, their total speed, and momentum, is 0, so is the total momentum after the run off:

$m_sv_s + m_rv_r = 0$

where $m_s = 72.8, m_r = 265$ are the mass of the swimmer and raft, respectively. $v_s = 5.21 m/s, v_r$ are the velocities of the swimmer and the raft after the run, respectively. We can solve for $v_r$

$265v_r + 72.8*5.21 = 0$

$v_b = -72.8*5.21/265 = -1.43 m/s$

So the recoil velocity that the raft would have is -1.43 m/s after the swimmer runs off, relative to the shore

Experts, ACE, Genius... can anybody calculate for the Reactions at supports A and B please? Will give brainliest! Given: fb = 30

dybincka [34]

Answer:

Support at Cy = 1.3 x 10³ k-N

Support at Ay = 200 k-N

Explanation:

given:

fb = 300 k-N/m

fc = 100 k-N/m

D = 300 k-N

L ab = 6 m

L bc = 6 m

L cd = 6 m

To get the reaction A or C.

take summation of moment either A or C.

Support Cy:

∑ M at Ay = 0

(( x1 * F ) + ( D * Lab ) + ( D * L bc + D * L cd )

Cy = -------------------------------------------------------------------

( L ab + L bc )

Cy = 1.3 x 10³ k-N

Support Ay:

Since ∑ F = 0, A + C - F - D = 0

A = F + D - C

Ay = 200 k-N

A 53-N force is needed to keep a 50.0-kg box sliding across a flat surface at a constant velocity. What is the coefficient of ki

earnstyle [38]

The weight of the box is (mass) x (gravity) = (50 kg) x (9.8m/s²) = 490 newtons.

If the box is sliding at constant speed, and not speeding up or slowing down,
that means that the horizontal forces on it add up to zero.

Since you're pushing on it with 53N in that direction, friction must be pulling
on it with 53N in the other direction.

The 53N of friction is (the weight) x (the coefficient of kinetic friction).

53N = (490N) x (coefficient).

Divide each side by 490N : Coefficient = (53N) / (490N) = 0.1082 .

Rounded to the nearest hundredth, that's 0.11 . (choice 'd')
