Ocean currents are caused by density differences in the water and move water masses through the deep ocean

Currents may also be generated by density differences in water masses caused by temperature and salinity variations. These currents move water masses through the deep ocean—taking nutrients, oxygen, and heat with them.

When the displacement in SHM is equal to 1/3 of the amplitude xm, what fraction of the total energy is (a) kinetic energy and (b
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Displacement is \frac{1}{3} of Amplitude

i.e. x=\frac{A}{3} , where A is maximum amplitude

Potential Energy is given by

U=\frac{1}{2}kx^2

U=\frac{1}{2}k(\frac{A}{3})^2

U=\frac{1}{18}kA^2

Total Energy of SHM is given by

T.E.=\frac{1}{2}kA^2

Total Energy=kinetic Energy+Potential Energy

K.E.=\frac{1}{2}kA^2 -\frac{1}{18}kA^2

K.E.=\frac{8}{18}kA^2

Potential Energy is \frac{1}{8} th of Total Energy

Kinetic Energy is \frac{8}{9} of Total Energy

(c)Kinetic Energy is 0.5\times \frac{1}{2}kA^2

P.E.=\frac{1}{4}kA^2

\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{4}kA^2

x=\frac{A}{\sqrt{2}}

At what water temperature will additional heat energy need to be added before the temperature will change again?
Katyanochek1 [597]
That would be 0 degrees Celsius aka the melting point of water.... If you look at the diagram I attached you notice that at 0 degrees Celsius it is flat, this is because much heat is needed at this point for water to rise to 1 degree... It is the same for the boiling point (100)

Hope this helps! (If correct, please rank as brainliest answer) :)

Einstein and Lorentz, being avid tennis players, play a fast-paced game on a court where they stand 25.0 m from each other. Bein
Lerok [7]

Answer:

A) 199.78 J

B) 9.292x10^14 J

C) 4.2x10^7 m/s

D) 0.65 m

E) 1.13x10^-8 sec

D) 2.94x10^-9 sec

Explanation:

mass of ball = 0.0580 kg

A)

If smashed at v = 83.0 m/s, KE is

KE = 0.5mv^2

= 0.5 x 0.0580 x 83.0^2

= 199.78 J

B) if returned at v = 1.79×10^8 m/s, KE will be

KE = 0.5mv^2

= 0.5 x 0.0580 x (1.79×10^8)^2

= 9.292x10^14 J

C) during Einstein's return, velocity of rabbit relative to players is

Vr = 2.21×108 m/s

Rabbit's velocity relative to ball = 2.21×10^8 - 1.79×10^8

= 4.2x10^7 m/s

D) the rabbit's speed approaches the speed of light so we consider relativistic effect. The rabbit's measured distance is

l = l°( 1 - v^2/c^2)

= 2.5(1 - 2.21/3)

= 2.5 x 0.26

= 0.65 m

E) according to the players, the time taken by the rabbit is

t = d/v = 2.5/ 2.21×10^8

= 1.13x10^-8 sec

F) the time for rabbit as measured by rabbit is relativistic

t = t°( 1 - v^2/c^2)

= 1.13x10^-8 (1 - 2.21/3)

= 1.13x10^-8 x 0.26

= 2.94x10^-9 sec
