Answer:

The moving car transfers Kinetic Energy to the parked car

Explanation:

Options are not supplied here but I have previously answered this question in a test and these options were supplied.

A) The moving car transfers kinetic energy to the parked car.

B) Kinetic energy in the moving car disappears.

C) Kinetic energy in the parked car is created.

D) The parked car transfers kinetic energy to the moving car.

A) This option provides us with the true outcome, the moving car transfers Kinetic energy to the parked car. This is in agreement with the law of conservation of energy. A transference of energy is the outcome of this event.

B) Kinetic energy cannot disappear, this is because according to the law of conservation of energy, energy can neither be created nor destroyed.

If energy disappears, this would imply that energy is destroyed which is not agreeable.

C) Kinetic energy in the parked car is created... Just like the option B above, and according to the above stated law, energy can neither be created nor destroyed. It is also not agreeable here that energy is created.

D) Energy can be transferred but, "a parked car indicates that the car only has potential energy" and as such cannot transfer kinetic energy to the moving car since it does not possess kinetic energy.

A current of 0.4 A flows through a wire. How many electrons flow through a cross section of

Free_Kalibri [48]

9 × 10²¹ electrons flow through a cross section of the wire in one hour.

<h3>What is the relation between current and charge?</h3>

Mathematically, current = charge / time
In S.I. unit, Charge is written in Coulomb and time in second.

<h3>What is the amount of charge flown through a wire for one hour if it carries 0.4 A current?</h3>

Charge= current × time
Current= 0.4 A, time = 1 hour= 3600 s
Charge= 0.4× 3600

= 1440 C

<h3>How many numbers of electrons present in 1440C of charge?</h3>

One electron= 1.6 × 10^(-19) C
So, 1440 C = 1440/1.6 × 10^(-19)

= 9 × 10²¹ electrons

Thus, we can conclude that the 9 × 10²¹ electrons flow through a cross section of the wire in one hour.

A current cannot produce a magnetic field. *<br><br> True or false

GalinKa [24]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

False, as a magnetic field is generated whenever current travels through a conductor.

An electromagnet consists of a coil of wire wrapped around a bar of iron. The coil and iron bar get magnetized when electric current flows through the wire. An electromagnet also has north and south magnetic poles. The magnetic field is strongest at either pole of the magnet.

Which example describes a nonrenewable resource?

ioda

Answer: Examples of nonrenewable resources include crude oil, natural gas, coal, and uranium. These are all resources that are processed into products that can be used commercially. For example, the fossil fuel industry extracts crude oil from the ground and converts it to gasoline.

3. Maverick and Goose are flying a training mission in their F-14. They are

Elanso [62]

Answer:

A. The bomb will take <em>17.5 seconds </em>to hit the ground

B. The bomb will land <em>12040 meters </em>on the ground ahead from where they released it

Explanation:

Maverick and Goose are flying at an initial height of $y_0=1500m$ , and their speed is v=688 m/s

When they release the bomb, it will initially have the same height and speed as the plane. Then it will describe a free fall horizontal movement

The equation for the height y with respect to ground in a horizontal movement (no friction) is

$y=y_0 - \frac{gt^2}{2}$ [1]

With g equal to the acceleration of gravity of our planet and t the time measured with respect to the moment the bomb was released

The height will be zero when the bomb lands on ground, so if we set y=0 we can find the flight time

The range (horizontal displacement) of the bomb x is

$x = v.t$ [2]

Since the bomb won't have any friction, its horizontal component of the speed won't change. We need to find t from the equation [1] and replace it in equation [2]:

Setting y=0 and isolating t we get

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2y_0}{g}}$
