Answer:

The falling raindrop is converting gravitational PE into KE and thermal energy through resistance. The PE is from solar energy evaporating the liquid water to vapor and powering the weather that formed the cloud.

An object of mass 0.40 kg, hanging from a spring with a spring constant of 8.0 N/m, is set into an up-and-down simple harmonic m
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

a = 2 m/s2

Explanation:

we know from newtons 2nd law

F = ma.

we also know that from hookes law we have

F = kx

equate both value of force to get value of acceleration

kx = ma,

where,

k is spring constant = 8.0 N/m

x is maximum displacement  0.10 m

m is mass of object 0.40 kg

a = \frac{kx}{m}

     = \frac{8 *0 .10}{0.40}

a = 2 m/s2

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 a potassium atom forms an ion, it loses one electron. What is the electrical charge of the potassium ion?
fomenos
The correct answer is answer choice C. +1. Since electrons have negative charges, losing one electron will cause the atom to have a positive charge of 1. This charge comes from the protons, which, until one electron was lost, balanced out the negative charge of the electrons and caused the atom to be neutral.

James accelerates his skate board uniformly along a straight road from rest to 10 m/s in 4 seconds. What is James Acceleration?
lawyer [7]

Given:

u(initial velocity)=0

v(final velocity)= 10 m/s

t= 4 sec

Now we know that

v= u + at

Where v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration measured in m/s^2

t is the time measured in sec

10=0+ax4

a=10/4

a=2.5 m/s^2
