d = distance to which the grocery cart is pushed = 18 m

f = frictional force = 37.5 N

θ = angle of force below the horizontal = 27.5 deg

W = gravitational force in downward direction

Θ = angle between gravitational force in down direction and displacement in horizontal direction = 90

U = work done on the cart by gravitational force

work done on the cart by gravitational force is given as

U = W d CosΘ

inserting the values

U = W (18) Cos90

U = 0 J

Answer: a. air pollution

c. hazardous wastes

d. potential reactor accident

e. water pollution

A nuclear energy is produced in a thermal power plant. A nuclear energy is produced in a nuclear reactor. In nuclear reactor nuclear fission reactions takes place in which an atoms absorbs energy from radiations and undergo fission and produces energy in the form of high intensity radiations along with heat. Although the fission reactions takes place in a nuclear reactor in a controlled way so that the radiation may not leak out from the reactor. The accidentally leak out radiations or explosion or bursting of the reactor due to uncontrolled thermal energy production can result in air pollution as the leak out air will cause bursting effects which will contaminate the air.

The nuclear waste are radioactive and are non-biodegradable these wastes are disposed off deep in geospheres and in water. They have potential to contaminate both land and water. Radioactive wastes can cause mutations in the genome of the organisms exposed to these wastes which generate deadly diseases and disorders.  Therefore, these wastes are hazardous.

Energy Transformation
Serjik [45]

Answer:

<em>K =400000 J</em>

Explanation:

<u>Kinetic Energy</u>

Is the energy an object has due to its state of motion. It's proportional to the square of the speed.

The equation for the kinetic energy is:

\displaystyle K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

Where:

m = mass of the object

v = speed at which the object moves

The kinetic energy is expressed in Joules (J)

The car has a mass of m=2000 Kg and travels at v=20 m/s. Calculating the kinetic energy:

\displaystyle K=\frac{1}{2}2000*20^2

Calculating:

K =400000 J

A small sphere has a harge of 9uC and other small sphere has a charge of 4uC.
Helga [31]

Answer:

Electrical force, F = 90 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Charge on sphere 1, q_1=9\ \mu C=9\times 10^{-6}\ C

Charge on sphere 2, q_1=4\ \mu C=4\times 10^{-6}\ C

Distance between two spheres, d = 6 cm = 0.06 m

Let F is the electrical force between them. It is given by the formula of electric force which is directly proportional to the product of charges and inversely proportional to the square of distance between them such that,

F=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{d^2}

F=9\times 10^9\times \dfrac{9\times 10^{-6}\times 4\times 10^{-6}}{(0.06)^2}

F = 90 N

So, the electrical force between them is 90 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

What is the impulse of a 3 kg object that starts from rest and moves to 20 m/s?
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

The impulse on the object is 60Ns.

Explanation:

Impulse is defined as the product of the force applied on an object and the time at which it acts. It is also the change in the momentum of a body.

F = m a

F = m(\frac{v_{2}  - v_{1} }{t})

⇒     Ft = m(v_{2} - v_{1})

where: F is the dorce on the object, t is the time at which it acts, m is the mass of the object, v_{1} is its initialvelocity and v_{2} is the final velocity of the object.

Therefore,

impulse = Ft = m(v_{2} - v_{1})

From the question, m = 3kg, v_{1} = 0m/s and v_{2} = 20m/s.

So that,

Impulse = 3 (20 - 0)

             = 3(20)

             = 60Ns

The impulse on the object is 60Ns.
