STatiana [176]3 years ago

Answer:

Work can transfer energy between objects and can cause a change in the form of energy.

Explanation:

The best explanation can be done with an example.

Consider an apple of mass m falling from a tree. Initially, the apple is at rest on the tree, at a certain height h above the ground, so it has a form of energy called gravitational potential energy, equal to:

U=mgh

where g is the acceleration due to gravity.

As the apple falls, the force of gravity acts on it, and so this force does work on the apple. As a result, the potential energy of the apple is converted into another form of energy, kinetic energy, which is the energy due to the motion of the apple:

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

where v is the speed of the apple.


Consider another example: a man pushing a box along the floor with a force F. The man is doing work on the box, and this work is equal to

W=Fd

where d is the displacement of the box. As a result of this work, some of the chemical energy contained in the muscles of the man is transferred into the box and converted to kinetic energy of the box, which is put in motion and it gains a certain speed v. In particular, if there are no frictional forces involved, the work done by the man is equal to the kinetic energy gained by the box.

When calculating the power bill, power companies use _____.
Dovator [93]
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option B. When calculating the power bill, power companies use kilowatt-hours. This unit is a derived unit of energy equal to 3.6 MJ. If energy is being transmitted or used at a constant rate (power) over a period of time, the total energy in kilowatt-hours is the product of the power in kilowatts and the time.

Two bicycle tires are set rolling with the same initial speed of 3.30 m/s along a long, straight road, and the distance each tra
vredina [299]

Answer:

At low pressure- \mu_{k}=0.02315

At high pressure- \mu_{k}=0.00445

Explanation:

Initial speed, V_{i}=3.3 m/s

Final speed, V_{f}=3.3/2= 1.65 m/s

Net horizontal force due to rolling friction F_{net}=\mu_{k} mg where m is mass, g is acceleration due to gravity, \mu_{k} is coefficient of rolling friction

From kinematic relation, V_{f}^{2}- V_{i}^{2}=2ad

For each tire,

V_{f}^{2}- V_{i}^{2}=2\mu_{k}gd

Making \mu_{k} the subject

\mu_{k}=\frac {V_{f}^{2}- V_{i}^{2}}{2gd}

Under low pressure of 40 Psi, d=18 m

\mu_{k}=\frac {1.65^{2}- 3.3^{2}}{2*9.8*18}=-0.02315

Therefore, \mu_{k}=0.02315

At a pressure of 105 Psi, d=93.7

\mu_{k}=\frac {1.65^{2}- 3.3^{2}}{2*9.8*93.7}=-0.00445

Therefore, \mu_{k}=0.00445

a. 2.00kg object is subject to three force that gives acceleration a =8m/s^2 i +6m/s j if two of three forces are f1 =(30.0N)+(1
tekilochka [14]

By Newton's second law, the net force on the object is

∑ <em>F</em> = <em>m</em> <em>a</em>

∑ <em>F</em> = (2.00 kg) (8 <em>i</em> + 6 <em>j</em> ) m/s^2 = (16.0 <em>i</em> + 12.0 <em>j</em> ) N

Let <em>f</em> be the unknown force. Then

∑ <em>F</em> = (30.0 <em>i</em> + 16 <em>j</em> ) N + (-12.0 <em>i</em> + 8.0 <em>j</em> ) N + <em>f</em>

=>   <em>f</em> = (-2.0 <em>i</em> - 12.0 <em>j</em> ) N

which of the following statements best explains how consumers determine growth in technological areas
Mrac [35]
If these were the missing choices:

a)      Consumers fill out questionnaires concerning their need for new products.

b)      Consumers vote for politicians who decide which kind of research to support

c)       Consumers decide what to buy and what not to buy

d)      Consumers influence the decisions of private foundations by deciding where to donate money.


My answer would be: c)       <span>Consumers decide what to buy and what not to buy</span>

Every growth is based on the demand of the people. If a good or service is needed then its demand will increase. If a good or service is not needed then its demand will decrease until such time that said good or service will be eliminated.
