Answer:

4693 J

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of the eagle is given by:

$K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where

m is the mass of the eagle

v is the speed of the eagle

In this problem, m = 26 kg and v = 19 m/s. Substituting into the formula, we find

$K=\frac{1}{2}(26 kg)(19 m/s)^2=4693 J$

As we can see, the altitude of the eagle is not relevant for the calculation of the kinetic energy.

Examine the scenario. Object A has 5 protons and 5 electrons. Object B has 5 protons and 7 electrons. Which option most accurate

Travka [436]

<span>Last choice on the list:
Object A has a net charge of 0 because the positive and negative
charges are balanced.
Object B has a net charge of –2 because there is an imbalance of
charged particles (2 more negative electrons than positive protons).</span>

I think it would be yes because the drum is submerged in water and the water would slow the sound waves, making the sound softer. Right?

of a sound wave increases.

Pitch and amplitude are both characteristics of a wave, but they're not
connected, and they don't influence each other.</span>

Newton’s Second Law of motion defines force in terms of mass and acceleration, F= ma. Which of the following is false? The term

NikAS [45]

Answer:

The forces creating the net force must lie in the same direction.

Explanation:

newton's second law states that the net force acting on the body is equal to the product of mass and the acceleration of the body.

If there are several forces acting on the body in different directions, then we have to find teh net force by using the vector sum and then find the acceleration.

It is not necessary that all the forces acting in the same direction.

if they are in different directions then we have to find the net force by t=using the formula for the vector sum.

irina1246 [14]

Answer:

Velocity, v = 0.239 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

The distance between two consecutive nodes of a standing wave is 20.9 cm = 0.209 m

The hand generating the pulses moves up and down through a complete cycle 2.57 times every 4.47 s.

For a standing wave, the distance between two consecutive nodes is equal to half of the wavelength.

$\dfrac{\lambda}{2}=0.209\ m\\\\\lambda=0.418\ m$

Frequency is number of cycles per unit time.

$f=\dfrac{2.57}{4.47}\\\\f=0.574\ Hz$

Now we can find the velocity of the wave.

Velocity = frequency × wavelength

v = 0.574 × 0.418

v = 0.239 m/s

So, the velocity of the wave is 0.239 m/s.
