How much kinetic energy does an object have that is moving at a rate of 30 m/s and has a mass of 4000 kg ?
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

K = 1800 kJ

Explanation:

Given that,

The speed of the object, v = 30 m/s

Mass of the object, m = 4000 kg

We need to find the kinetic energy of the object. The formula for the kinetic energy is given by :

K=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\K=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 4000\times 30^2\\\\K=1800000\\\\or\\\\K=1800\ kJ

So, the required kinetic energy is equal to 1800 kJ.

A conductor of radius r, length and resistivity ρ has resistance r. what is the new resistance if it is stretched to 4 times its
max2010maxim [7]
The resistance of a conductor is given by
R= \frac{\rho L}{A}
where L is the length of the wire, \rho the resistivity of the material and A the cross-sectional area.

We can see that if all the other quantities do not change, if the new length of the conductor is 4 times the original length: L'=4 L, then the new resistance is also 4 times the original value:
R'= \frac{\rho L'}{A}= \frac{\rho 4 L}{A}=4  \frac{\rho L}{A}=4 R

Why can gases and liquids both transmit heat by convection?
Firlakuza [10]
Basically, the temperature is a result of the average kinetic energy of all the atoms comprising the solid/liquid/gas. In solid, these atoms can just vibrate in place, leaving them to only be able to conduct and radiate heat. However, as you probably know liquids and solids take the shape of their container because the bonds between atoms are loose enough to allow them to freely move around. Due to each individual atom having its own energy, and these atoms being free to move about the liquid/gas they collide with other atoms in the substance. These collisions result in a transfer of energy. Finally, lower energy atoms "sink" and higher energy atoms "rise" thus creating a "convection current".

The maximum pressure variations the human ear can withstand are about how much above and below atmospheric pressure?
Crank

The maximum pressure variations the human ear can withstand  above and below atmospheric pressure is around 30 pa. the normal atmospheric pressure is around 101325 pa. hence the variation in the maximum pressure for human ear is very small as compared to the atmospheric pressure. if the ear is exposed to a pressure greater than this , it can cause permanent damage to the ear.
