Answer:

Thermal Energy

Explanation:

This is an example of kinetic energy. It results in an object having a temperature that can be measured. Also, thermal energy can be transferred from one object to another in the form of heat.

A speed truck locks it’s brakes and it skids to a stop. If the truck’s total mass were doubled, it’s skidding distance would be?

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

The skidding distance would be doubled

Explanation:

When the truck applies the brakes and slows down, its motion is a uniformly accelerated motion, so its skidding distance can be found by using the suvat equation

$v^2-u^2=2as$

where

v = 0 is the final velocity (zero since the truck comes to a stop)

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

s is the skidding distance

The acceleration can also be written as

$a=\frac{F}{m}$

where F is the force applied by the brakes and m the mass of the truck. Substituting into the previous equation,

$-u^2 = 2\frac{F}{m}s\\s = -\frac{mu^2}{2F}$

We see that the skidding distance is proportional to the mass: therefore, if the mass of the truck is doubled, the skidding distance will double as well.

Which is larger: a megawatt or a kilowatt? how many times larger is it

Mandarinka [93]

A megawatt is larger than a kilowatt. The scientific notation for kilo is 10 to the 3, meaning 1000. A mega is 10 to the 6, meaning one million. That means a kilo watt is a thousand watts, and mega is a million watts

An object exhibits SHM with an angular frequency w = 4.0 s-1 and is released from its maximum displacement of A = 0.50 m at t =

vivado [14]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Angular frequency, $\omega=4\ s^{-1}$

Maximum displacement, A = 0.5 m at t = 0 s

We need to find the time at which it reaches its maximum speed. Firstly, we will find the maximum velocity of the object that is exhibiting SHM.

$v_{max}=A\times \omega$

$v_{max}=0.5\times 4$

$v_{max}=2\ m/s$ ............(1)

Acceleration of the object, $a=\omega^2A$

$a=4^2\times 0.5$

$a=8\ m/s^2$ ...............(2)

Using first equation of motion we can calculate the time taken to reach maximum speed.

$v=u+at$

$t=\dfrac{v-u}{a}$

$t=\dfrac{2-0}{8}$

t = 0.25 s

So, the object will take 0.25 seconds to reach its maximum speed. Hence, this is the required solution.

If you put something like a piece of cardboard between a magnet and an iron nail, the magnet still holds the nail in place, even

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

A magnet has a field having lines of force around it that moves through the air which is a nonpermeable medium that allows the passage of magnetic field lines of force. The cardboard is a similar nonpermeable medium and the magnetic lines of force pass through to induce magnetism in the iron nail which is a ferromagnetic material that becomes magnetized by the magnetic field from the magnet

The induced magnetism in the iron nails causes the reverse poles to form in the iron with the iron domain's induced north pole pointing in the direction of the south pole of the magnet and vice versa

The iron nail is then attracted to the magnet as like poles attract, thereby holding the iron nail in place with the cardboard in between, without direct contact between the nail and the magnet as the cardboard prevents the magnet from touching the iron nail held in place
