Answer:

2.kinetic energy because it has the ability to take the students to school.

Explanation:

Energy of a given system due to the virtue of the motion of the given system is known as kinetic energy of the system

now we know that

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

so kinetic energy depends upon mass of the system and the velocity of the system.

So here since bus is in motion and moving towards the school so the bus along with all the children must have kinetic energy in it

So here correct answer would be

2.kinetic energy because it has the ability to take the students to school.

The velocity of the transverse waves produced by an earthquake is 8.9 km/s, and that of the longitudinal waves is 5.1 km/s. A se
Brrunno [24]

Answer: The distance is 723.4km

Explanation:

The velocity of the transverse waves is 8.9km/s

The velocity of the longitudinal wave is 5.1 km/s

The transverse one reaches 68 seconds before the longitudinal.

if the distance is X, we know that:

X/(9.8km/s) = T1

X/(5.1km/s) = T2

T2 = T1 + 68s

Where T1 and T2 are the time that each wave needs to reach the sesmograph.

We replace the third equation into the second and get:

X/(9.8km/s) = T1

X/(5.1km/s) = T1 + 68s

Now, we can replace T1 from the first equation into the second one:

X/(5.1km/s) = X/(9.8km/s) + 68s

Now we can solve it for X and find the distance.

X/(5.1km/s) - X/(9.8km/s) = 68s

X(1/(5.1km/s) - 1/(9.8km/s)) = X*0.094s/km= 68s

X = 68s/0.094s/km = 723.4 km

A spaceship whose rest length is 350m has a speed of .82c
igomit [66]

Answer:

t'=1.1897*10^{-6} s

t'=1.1897 μs

Explanation:

First we will calculate the velocity of micrometeorite relative to spaceship.

Formula:

u=\frac{u'+v}{1+\frac{u'*v}{c^{2}}}

where:

v is the velocity of spaceship relative to certain frame of reference =  -0.82c (Negative sign is due to antiparallel track).

u is the velocity of micrometeorite relative to same frame of reference as spaceship = .82c (Negative sign is due to antiparallel track)

u' is the relative velocity of micrometeorite with respect to spaceship.

In order to find u' , we can rewrite the above expression as:

u'=\frac{v-u}{\frac{u*v}{c^{2} }-1 }

u'=\frac{-0.82c-0.82c}{\frac{0.82c*(-0.82c)}{c^{2} }-1 }

u'=0.9806c

Time for micrometeorite to pass spaceship can be calculated as:

t'=\frac{length}{Relatie seed (u')}

t'=\frac{350}{0.9806c}     (c = 3*10^8 m/s)

t'=\frac{350}{0.9806* 3.0*10^{8} }

t'=1.1897*10^{-6} s

t'=1.1897 μs

2. A person applies a force of 66 N to a fridge as they push it across the length of a standard tennis court. So far today, the
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

P=39.2205\, watt

E=374.948 \,cal

Explanation:

Given that:

  • force applied, F=66\,N
  • displacement, s=23.77\,m (length of a tennis court)
  • time taken for pushing, t = 40 s

Since, work is given by:

W=F.s

W=66\times 23.77

W=1568.82\,J

Now, power is given as:

P=\frac{W}{t}

P=\frac{1568.82}{40}

P=39.2205 \,watt

Calories consumed is:

E= 1568.82\times 0.239

E=374.948\, cal

The amount of energy necessary to remove an electron from an atom is a quantity called the ionization energy, Ei. This energy ca
Verizon [17]

Answer:

The value is E_i  =  1.5596 *10^{-18} \  J

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The wavelength is \lambda  =  48.2 nm  =  48.2  *10^{- 9 }\  m

The velocity is v = 2.371*10^6 \ m/s

The mass of electron is m_e  =  9.109*10^{-31} \  kg

Generally the energy of the incident light is mathematically represented as

E =  \frac{h *  c}{\lambda}

Here c is the speed of light with value c =  3.0 *10^{8} \  m/s

h is the Planck constant with value h = 6.62607015 *  10^{-34 }  J\cdot s

So

E =  \frac{6.62607015 *  10^{-34 }* 3.0 *10^{8}}{48.2  *10^{- 9 }}

=> E = 4.12 *10^{-18} \  J

Generally the kinetic energy is mathematically represented as

E_k  =  \frac{1}{2} *  m_e * v^2

=> E_k  =  \frac{1}{2} *  9.109*10^{-31} * (2.371*10^6 )^2

=> E_k  =  2.56 *0^{-18} \  J

Generally the ionization energy is mathematically represented as

E_i  =  4.12 *10^{-18} -   2.56 *0^{-18}

=>     E_i  =  1.5596 *10^{-18} \  J
