<h2>Answer </h2>

The kinetic energy is 8100 J.

Explanation

Mass is 50.0kg and velocity is 18 m/s, the kinetic energy is:

As we know the formula of kinetic energy which is K.E = ½ ( mv ^ 2 ),

mass = m = 50.0kg

velocity = v = 18 m / s,

by putting values in the formula,

K.E = ½ ( mv ^ 2 ),

K.E = ½ ( 50kg ) . ( 18 m / s ) ^ 2

K.E = ½ ( 50kg ) . ( 324 ),

=> K.E = 1/2 ( 16200 ),

=> K.E = 16200 / 2,

=> K.E = 8100J.

Hence, the kinetic energy ( K.E ) is 8100 joule ( J ).

A special rocket can produce 7.66 ✕ 10^5 N of instantaneous thrust with an exhaust speed of 3.05 ✕ 103 m/s in vacuum. What mass

adelina 88 [10]

The mass of fuel the engine burn each second to produce a thrust of 7.66×10⁵ N is 2.5×10² kg/s.

Mass can be defined as the quantity of matter contained in a body. The S.I unit of mass is kilogram(kg)

To calculate the mass the engine burns each seconds, we use the formula below.

Formual:

M = T/v............. Equation

Where:

M = Mass per seconds of the rocket
T = Thrust
v = Velocity

From the question,

Given:

T = 7.66×10⁵ N
v = 3.05×10³ m/s

Substitute these values into equation 1

M = (7.66×10⁵)/(3.05×10³)
M = 2.5×10² kg/s

Hence, the mass of fuel burned in each second is 2.5×10² kg/s.

A laser beam is incident at an angle of 30.0° from the vertical onto a solution of corn syrup in water. The beam is refracted to

dimaraw [331]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Angle of incidence, $i=30^{\circ}$

Angle of refraction, $r=19.24^{\circ}$

a.Refractive index of air, $n_1=1$

We know that

$n_2sinr=n_1sini$

$n_2=\frac{n_1sin i}{sin r}=\frac{sin30}{sin19.24}=1.517$

b.Wavelength of red light in vacuum, $\lambda=632.8nm=632.8\times 10^{-9} m$

$1nm=10^{-9} m$

Wavelength in the solution, $\lambda'=\frac{\lambda}{n_2}$

$\lambda'=\frac{632.8}{1.517}=417nm$

c.Frequency does not change .It remains same in vacuum and solution.

Frequency, $\nu=\frac{c}{\lamda}=\frac{3\times 10^8}{632.8\times 10^{-9}}$

Where $c=3\times 10^8 m/s$

Frequency, $\nu=4.74\times 10^{14}Hz$

d.Speed in the solution, $v=\frac{c}{n_2}$

$v=\frac{3\times 10^8}{1.517}=1.98\times 10^8m/s$

(marking brainliest) pease help asap! both of the questions are in the pdf, and please let me know which is question one and whi

REY [17]

<h2>ANSWERS </h2>

1) The relationship in between the electrical energy carriesd by the transmission wires and the amount of the heat loss in it is due to the reason that when the electricity is flown through the wires there are some resistance found in these wires which creates a disturbance in the efficient flow of electricty.Also we know that current have an heating effect when it is in motion as due to if a large amount or magnitude of electricity is flown through the transmission wires it will carry a larger heat effected and also due to the resistance is provided by the wires and so the process of heat loss takes place.

2)It is important to minimize current in transmission wires due to minimize the heat loss and resistance on flowing electric current to make the system more efficient 

 3)Given Resistance = 250 ohms 

Electric potential = 150 volts 

so we know Power = 

volt^2/Resistance = 

=(150^2/250)(ohms/volts)

=(22500/250)watt = 90 watt 

4)Heat energy (H) = Power(P)×Time(t)

4)Heat energy (H) = Power(P)×Time(t)= (90×2)joules = 180 joules

Which of the following is fact-based science rather than part of a personal belief system?

marusya05 [52]

Since there are no choices, then this question calls for open-ended answers. Facts-based science must have proven underlying laws that support inferences such as Coulomb's Law, Kinetic Theory of Matter and many more. On the other hand, examples of science that focus on personal belief is philosophy. This depends on the perspective of known philosophers. An example would be Sigmund Freud who proposed the theory of 3 personalities. Although it is more on personal beliefs, this is used as a foundation in the study of psychology.

A driver with a 0.80-s reaction time applies the brakes, causing the car to have acceleration opposite the direction of motion.

jeka94

Answer:

a) During the reaction time, the car travels 21 m

b) After applying the brake, the car travels 48 m before coming to stop

Explanation:

The equation for the position of a straight movement with variable speed is as follows:

x = x0 + v0 t + 1/2 a t²

where

x: position at time t

v0: initial speed

a: acceleration

t: time

When the speed is constant (as before applying the brake), the equation would be:

x = x0 + v t

a)Before applying the brake, the car travels at constant speed. In 0.80 s the car will travel:

x = 0m + 26 m/s * 0.80 s = 21 m

b) After applying the brake, the car has an acceleration of -7.0 m/s². Using the equation for velocity, we can calculate how much time it takes the car to stop (v = 0):

v = v0 + a* t

0 = 26 m/s + (-7.0 m/s²) * t

-26 m/s / - 7.0 m/s² = t

t = 3.7 s

With this time, we can calculate how far the car traveled during the deacceleration.

x = x0 +v0 t + 1/2 a t²

x = 0m + 26 m/s * 3.7 s - 1/2 * 7.0m/s² * (3.7 s)² = 48 m
