Suppose you increase your walking speed from 6s to 12 m/s in a period of 2 s. What is acceleration

Physics

ElenaW [278]3 years ago
5 0

As we know that acceleration is given as

a = \frac{v_f - v_i}{t}

here we know that

v_i = 6 m/s

v_f = 12 m/s

\Delta t = 2 s

now we will have

a = \frac{12 - 6}{2}

a = 3 m/s^2

so acceleration will be 3 m/s^2

Explain the law of conservation of energy. Give a specific example using kinetic and potential energy that shows how energy is c
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

As you said you already know, energy cannot be created or destroyed.

Explanation:

You cannot gain energy or lose energy, it can only be converted. So if you start on a 3m high hill and go down it, your potential energy is equal to mgh, and if you get to the bottom of the hill, your KE would be equal to your PE at the top, and when you start going up another hill again, the maximum height you can reach is 3m, because energy cannot be created or destroyed, and your mass and gravitational acceleration are the same, so therefore you can only reach the same height you started from due to the conservation of energy.

In comparing molar specific heat for gases under constant pressure CP and constant volume CV, we conclude that (more than one co
Sauron [17]

Answer:

b. Specific heat increases as the number of atoms per molecule increases.

c. Specific heat at constant pressure is higher than at constant volume.

d. Monatomic gases behave like ideal gases.

Explanation:

Specific heat of the gas at constant pressure is usually higher than that of the volume.

i.e.

Cp - Cv = R

where R is usually the gas constant.

However, monoatomic gases are gases that exhibit the behavior of ideal gases. This is due to the attribute of the intermolecular forces which plays a negligible role. Nonetheless, the case is not always true for all temperatures and pressure.

Similarly, the increase in the number of atoms per molecule usually brings about an increase in specific heat. This effect is true as a result of an increase in the total number associated with the degree of freedom from which energy can be separated.

Thus, from above explanation:

Option b,c,d are correct while option (a) is incorrect.

What medium does sound travel through the quickest and why
crimeas [40]
Sound travels through all mediums solid, liquid, and gas. Because sound is a vibration it will travel fastest through solids. This is because the vibrations that make up sound are carried from one place to another by neighboring molecules vibrating against one another. The density of the solid is higher than liquid and gas which means the molecules are more tightly packed and the vibration can pass from one to the next more quickly.

When a potassium atom forms an ion, it loses one electron. What is the electrical charge of the potassium ion? *
Ganezh [65]
+1 An electron has a negative charge so losing a charge of -1 from an uncharged, or neutral, atom will leave an ion with a positive charge.
