Which statement best describes the law of conservation of energy?

2 answers:

8 0

<span>The correct option is C. Energy cannot be created or destroyed. This statement is known as law of conservation of energy, and it implies that whenever a certain form of energy does change, the loss of this form of energy must have converted into an another type of energy. A typical example is an object falling to the ground: initially, the object has gravitational potential energy. As the object falls down, it loses potential energy (since its altitude from the grounf decreases), but it acquires kinetic energy (because its velocity increases). In this example, potential energy has converted into kinetic energy, but the total energy of the object has remained constant.</span>

Point charges q1 and q2 are separated by a distance of 60 cm along a horizontal axis.

amm1812

Answer:

38 cm from q1(right)

Explanation:

Given, q1 = 3q2 , r = 60cm = 0.6 m

Let that point be situated at a distance of 'x' m from q1.

Electric field must be same from both sides to be in equilibrium(where EF is 0).

=> k q1/x² = k q2/(0.6 - x)²

=> q1(0.6 - x)² = q2(x)²

=> 3q2(0.6 - x)² = q2(x)²

=> 3(0.6 - x)² = x²

=> √3(0.6 - x) = ± x

=> 0.6√3 = x(1 + √3)

=> 1.03/2.73 = x

≈ 0.38 m = 38 cm = x

What mass of a material with density rho is required to make a hollow spherical shell having inner radius r1 and outer radius r2

Margarita [4]

Answer:

$m=\rho\times \frac{4}{3} \times \pi \times(r_2^3-r_1^3 )$

Explanation:

We have to make a hollow sphere of inner radius $r_1$ and outer radius $r_2$ .

Then the mass of the material required to make such a sphere would be calculated as:

Total volume of the spherical shell:

$V_t=\frac{4}{3} \pi.r_2^3$

And the volume of the hollow space in the sphere:

$V_h=\frac{4}{3} \pi.r_1^3$

Therefore the net volume of material required to make the sphere:

$V=V_t-V_h$

$V=\frac{4}{3} \pi(r_2^3-r_1^3)$

Now let the density of the of the material be $\rho$ .

<u>Then the mass of the material used is:</u>

$m=\rho.V$

$m=\rho\times \frac{4}{3} \times \pi \times(r_2^3-r_1^3 )$

Explain how a helicopter lifts itself up, from a Newton's 3rd Law perspective,

Lerok [7]

When a helicopter engine spins the main rotor, it generates torque (see How a Helicopter Works), an equal and opposite reaction. Torque makes it so that the engine itself wants to spin.
