Determine the mechanical energy of this object: 1-kg ball rolls on the ground at 2 m/s

1 answer:

5 0

The potential energy would be zero. Only kinetic energy is present in this case. To find out what the answer is we do the equation: mv^2/2 soo...

KE =mv^2/2
KE= 1(2^2)/2 which the answer will come up by 2 Joules.

How much would you have to eat for your appendix to explode ? I ate so much on thanksgiving and i need to know i’m very scared

dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

I don't think your appendix can explode because you ate too much honestly. It's not even possible to eat so much that your appendix explodes, and if you're feeling any pain it definitely isn't because your appendix is about to explode, believe me. Also you could just type it into the internet, that'd be a much faster solution.

What is true of transverse waves?

topjm [15]

<h2>Answer:D</h2>

Explanation:

Option A:

Surface waves are neither transverse nor longitudinal.They traverse perpendicularly or parallel to the wave's motion along the interface between different media.

Option B:

Transverse waves vibrate perpendicularly to the direction of the propagation of the wave.

Option C:

Sound is a longitudinal wave.Not a transverse wave.

Option D:

Transverse waves don't require a medium for propagation.But they propagate in medium too.

Explain how the basic unit are combined to give the derived units of force, velocity, pressure and work

LuckyWell [14K]

Velocity:

Velocity is change in displacement with respect to time:

$\frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}$

Analysing the units, meters (displacement) and seconds (time) are basic units:

$\frac{m}{s}$

Therefore the unit of velocity is m/s

Force:

Newton's second law of motion:

$F = ma$

Kilogram (mass) is a basic unit, and accelerations unit can be found using the equation:

$a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}$

Analysing the units:

$\frac{\frac{m}{s}}{s}=\frac{m}{s^2}$

Therefore, the unit of force is:

$kg\frac{m}{s^2}$

Pressure:

Pressure is given by the equation:

$P=\frac{F}{S}$ where S is area of effect, F is force

Area for a basic rectangle (geometric shape is arbitrary for dimensional analysis) is found by multiplying two lengths:

$[l^2]=m^2$ , the unit of area

Dividing the aforementioned unit of force by the unit of area:

$\frac{kg\frac{m}{s^2}}{m^2}=\frac{kg}{ms^2}$ , the unit of pressure

Work:

Work is given by the equation:

$W=\vec{F}\cdot \vec{x}$ , (dot product may be assumed as normal multiplication for the purposes of unit analysis)

Knowing displacement's (x) unit is m:

$[W]=\frac{kgm}{s^2}m=\frac{kgm^2}{s^2}$ , the unit of work.

Use examples to explain how the geosphere interacts with two other of Earth's spheres. Explain the interaction for each using co

Orlov [11]

The geosphere interacts with the hydrosphere when water causes rock to erode. The atmosphere provides the geosphere with heat and energy for erosion, and the geosphere reflects the sun's energy back into the atmosphere.
