Both a 3 kg book and 5 kg bowling ball are sitting still on the floor. What is true about the kinetic energy of the objects? Exp

Charra [1.4K]3 years ago

Answer:

The kinetic energy for both objects is the same.

Explanation:

While in other cases the kinetic energies of two objects that have different masses might be different depending on their velocities, in this case both the 3 kg book and 5 kg bowling ball have the same kinetic energy.

This is because kinetic energy is calculated using the formula: K = 1/2 * m * v^2, where m represents the mass and v represents the velocity of the object.

Since the book and the bowling ball are sitting still on the floor, their velocities are zero.  Hence, when we plug in 0 for velocity into the equation for kinetic energy, we will get that the kinetic energy is 0 for the book and the bowling ball.

Hope this helps!

So I'm struggling with rearranging kinematic formulas. Does anyone have any steps or something to help.
bekas [8.4K]

Rearranging formulas is all about simple algebra rules. Just like when solving for x in an equation, you're just isolating whichever variable you want. I'll work this one out for you and hopefully it'll help, but if you need more explanation, then feel free to comment!

D = ViT + 0.5at²   Subtract ViT from both sides

D - ViT = 0.5at²    Divide both sides by 0.5t²

\frac{D - ViT}{0.5t^{2} } = \frac{0.5at^{2} }{0.5t^{2} }    I wrote this step out a little more to show how your fraction will cancel

\frac{D - ViT}{0.5t^{2} }= a    I like to flip these around so the single variable is on the right

a = \frac{D - ViT}{0.5t^{2} }

The magnet has an unchanging magnetic field: very strong near the magnet, and weak far from the magnet. How did the magnetic fie
STatiana [176]

Answer:

<em>The magnetic field through the coil at first increases steadily up to its maximum value, and then decreases gradually to its minimum value.</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

At first, the magnet fall towards the coils;  inducing a gradually increasing magnetic field through the coil as it falls into the coil. At the instance when half the magnet coincides with the coil, the magnetic field magnitude on the coil is at its maximum value. When the magnet falls pass the coil towards the floor, the magnetic field then starts to decrease gradually from a strong magnitude to a weak magnitude.

This action creates a changing magnetic flux around the coil. The result is that an induced current is induced in the coil, and the induced current in the coil will flow in such a way as to oppose the action of the falling magnet. This is based on lenz law that states that the induced current acts in such a way as to oppose the motion or the action that produces it.

A bat can detect small objects such as an insect whose size is approximately equal to the wavelength of the sound the bat makes.
zaharov [31]

Given that,

Frequency emitted by the bat, f = 47.6 kHz

The speed off sound in air, v = 413 m/s

We need to find the wavelength detected by the bat. The speed of a wave is given by formula as follows :

v=f\lambda\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{413}{47.6\times 10^3}\\\\\lambda=0.00867\ m

or

\lambda=8.67\ mm

So, the bat can detect small objects such as an insect whose size is approximately equal to the wavelength of the sound the bat makes i.e. 8.67 mm.

When air resistance equals the weight of an object, the object has reached
MissTica

Answer:

When air resistance equals the weight of an object, the object has reached free fall.

Explanation:

  • When an object has only force acting on it as gravity then, it experiences free fall.
  • During free fall all the forces except gravity is balanced by one another.
  • In the question, object's weight is balanced by air resistance so it is in the state of free fall.
  • At the null point of free fall, object experiences weightlessness i.e. it feels like object is not attracted by any force.
