Answer:

Gravitational potential energy transforms into kinetic energy.

Explanation:

It is given that, we have to write energy transformation occurs when a skydiver first jumps from a plane.

Just before jumping from the plane, the skydive exhibit only gravitational potential energy because it is possessed due to height of an object. It can be given by :

PE = m g h

m is the mass of object

g is acceleration due to gravity

h is the height form the surface

As he reaches down, its potential energy decreases continuously and it is converting to kinetic energy. It can be given by :

KE = 0.5 mv²

V is the velocity of object

So, it is clear that the gravitational potential energy si transforms to kinetic energy.

Answer:

9)a

10) I think true

11)b

Explanation:

9)a. because it's told that the car is slowing down, the sum of the forces that are towards left, should be more than the ones that are towards right. if the car was gaining speed, "b" would have been correct. and if it was told that the car is moving without a change in the speed, "c" would have been correct.

10) if a moving object has a change of speed or direction, it would have an acceleration. now if a moving object experiences an unbalanced force, it'd either slow down, gain speed or change direction, and in all of the three possibilities it'd have an acceleration.

11) upward and downward forces are equal, and the sum of them would be 0N(because they have opposite directions). so they negate each other.

and the rightward force is 5N more than the leftward force. so the Net Force would be 5N.

-30+30-10+15=5N

if it is unclear or you need more explanation, ask freely.

A 13,000 kg helicopter accelerates upward a 0.5 m/s^2 while lifting a 2000 pound car. to the nearest newton, what is the lift fo
Vinil7 [7]

Lift force exerted by the air on the rotors=143244 N

Explanation:

we use Newtons second law

F- (M+m)g=(M+m)a

F= lift force

m= mass of helicopter= 13000 Kg

M= mass of car= 2000 lb=907.2 kg

a= acceleration= 0.5 m/s²

g= acceleration due to gravity

F- (M+m)g=(M+m)a

F=(M+m)(a+g)

F=(13000+907.2)(0.5+9.8)

F=143244 N

You send a beam of light from a material with index of refraction 1.21 into an unknown material. In order to help identify this
White raven [17]

Answer:

refractive index of the unknown material is 1.33.

Explanation:

μ₁ = 1.21

incidence angle (i) = 41.9°

refraction angle (r) = 37.3°

Let us assume μ be the refractive index of the unknown material

according to snell's law of refraction.

μ₁ sin i = μ₂ sin r

1.21 × sin 41.9° =  μ × sin 37.3°

μ = 1.33

hence the refractive index of the unknown material comes out top be 1.33
