Answer: 258.7 J

Explanation:

Velocity of object V=5m/s

Mass ; 5kg

Height; h=4m

Mechanical energy is equal to sum of kinetic and potential energy

E=K+Ep

Kinetic energy is calculeted using; K=m*V²/2

Potential energy is calculated using : Ep=m*G*h

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

V=5m/s

m=5kg

h=4m

E=K+Ep

E=m*V²/2+m*G*h

E=5kg*(5m/s)²/2+5kg*9.81m/s²*4m

E=62.5J+196.2J

E=258.7 J

Why can you see your own reflected image in a mirror but not on a dry, painted wall?

kaheart [24]

A wall uses diffuse reflection while a mirror uses specular reflection. For example, when parallel light rays enter a mirror, they remain parallel when exiting the mirror, allowing you to see a reflection of the light rays. On the contrary, when incident light rays enter a wall which is painted, the rays scatter, not allowing you to see anything but a painted wall.

Young's Modulus refers to changes in the: a- Volume b- Length c- Body layers

bekas [8.4K]

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option b.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Young's Modulus is defined as the ratio of stress acting on a substance to the amount of strain produced.

Stress is defined as force per unit area and strain is defined as proportional deformation in a material.

The equation representing Young's Modulus is:

$Y=\frac{F/A}{\Delta l/l}=\frac{Fl}{A\Delta l}$

where,

Y = Young's Modulus

F = force exerted by the weight

l = length of wire

A = area of cross section

$\Delta l$ = change in length

Hence, the correct answer is Option b.

Describe how substance move from one state to another

Mekhanik [1.2K]

The temperature rises until the water reaches the next change of state — boiling. As the particles move faster and faster, they begin to break the attractive forces between each otherand move freely as steam — a gas. The process by which a substance moves from the liquid state to the gaseousstate is called boiling.
