Answer:
An apple hanging at a branch has potential energy due its position. It can be written as PE= mgh where m is the mass of the apple h is the distance between the apple and the ground and g is the acceleration due to gravity.
as the apple falls from the tree it loses its potential energy and gains kinetic energy due to the movement of the apple. Its kinetic energy will be given by KE= 1/2mv² where m is the mass of the apple and v is the speed with which the apple falls.
As the apple falls the height or the distance reduces and PE becomes reduces. But it gains Kinetic energy due to its speed.
But when the apple falls to the ground and comes to rest its kinetic energy is converted to potential energy.
thus the total energy remains the same. it changes from one form to the other but remains unaltered.
Answer:
E = 1000 x
Explanation:
The electric potential and the electric field are related by the formula
dV = - E . dx
Bold represents vectors.
The point represents the scalar product, in this case we calculate the electric field in the x-axis and the potential is also in this axis so the scalar product is reduced to the algebraic product
E = dV /dx
Let's make the derivative
E = - 2ax
Let's replace the values
E = -2 (-500) x
E = 1000 x
<h2>Answer: The planets formed at the center of a collapsing spinning cloud of gas and dust.</h2>
The most accepted theory so far, in relation to the formation of our solar system is that it was originated by the contraction of a cloud of interstellar gas due to its own gravity.
To understand it better:
According to this theory, a cloud of gas and interstellar dust began to shrink due to its own gravity. This led to the increase in the temperature of the system, which began to rotate forming a large gas sphere in the center (the Sun) with a flat disk around it.
This is how the Sun formed from the sphere in the center and the planets formed from the disk orbiting in the same plane.
Answer:
a) 0.32 m b) -2.4 m c) 1.08 m/s d) -4 m/s
Explanation:
a)
- As the x and y axes (as chosen) are perpendicular each other, the movements along these axes are independent each other.
- This means that we can use the kinematic equations for displacements along both axes.
- In the x direction, as the only initial velocity is in the south direction (-y axis), the skateboarder is at rest, so we can write:
- In the y-direction, as no acceleration is acting on the skateboarder, we can write the following displacement equation:
- For t = 0.6s, replacing by the givens, we get the position (displacement from the origin) on the x-axis, as follows:
b)
- From (2) we can get the position on the y-axis (displacement from the origin) as follows:
c)
- In the x- direction, we can find the component of the velocity along this direction, as follows:
- Replacing by the values, we have:
d)
- As the skateboarder moves along the y-axis at a constant speed equal to her initial velocity, we have:
vfy = voy = -4 m/s
Answer: False I think that is worded weird tho
