Which one of the following bodies has only potential energy?

Potential energy is like energy contained. It is not energy displayed.

So option (a) clearly represents energy contained.

a. A cat sitting on the fence

If the cat jumps off the wall, the potential or contained energy is displayed as kinetic energy; which is energy in motion.

A square wave has amplitude 0 V for the low voltage and 4 V for the high voltage. Calculate the average voltage by integrating o
Margarita [4]

Answer:

V_{average} = \frac{1}{2}  V_o  ,     V_{average} = 2 V

Explanation:

he average or effective voltage of a wave is the value of the wave in a period

            V_average = ∫ V dt

in this case the given volage is a square wave that can be described by the function

           V (t) = \left \{ {{V=V_o \ \ \  t<  \tau /2} \atop {V=0 \ \  \ \  t> \tau /2 }   } \right.

to substitute in the equation let us separate the into two pairs

             V_average = \int\limits^{1/2}_0 {V_o} \, dt + \int\limits^1_{1/2} {0} \, dt

             V_average = V_o \ \int\limits^{1/2}_0 {} \, dt

             V_{average} = \frac{1}{2}  V_o

we evaluate  V₀ = 4 V

             V_{average} = 4 / 2)

             V_{average} = 2 V

What role does actin and myosin play in the process of muscle contraction?
Margarita [4]

Answer:

Muscle contraction thus results from an interaction between the actin and myosin filaments that generates their movement relative to one another. The molecular basis for this interaction is the binding of myosin to actin filaments, allowing myosin to function as a motor that drives filament sliding.

A 50.6 g ball of copper has a net charge of 1.6 µc. what fraction of the copper's electrons have been removed? (each copper atom
Fynjy0 [20]
First figure out how many atoms you have with Avogadro's number.  Since there are 63.5 grams/mol and you have 50.6 grams, you have (50.6/63.5)6.022E23=4.7986E23 atoms.  Since there are 29 protons per atom, there are also 29 electrons per atom, so you should have a total of
29*4.7986E23=1.3916E25 electrons.
Since there is a positive charge you know some of these electrons are missing.  How many are missing can be found by dividing the charge you have by the charge on the electron:  1.6E-6/1.6022E-19 = 9.98627E12 electrons are missing.  
Now take the ratio of what is missing to what there should be:
9.98627E12/1.3916E25 = 7.1760873E-13

vfiekz [6]

Answer:

His launching angle was 14.72°

Explanation:

Please, see the figure for a graphic representation of the problem.

In a parabolic movement, the velocity and displacement vectors are two-component vectors because the object moves along the horizontal and vertical axis.

The horizontal component of the velocity is constant, while the vertical component has a negative acceleration due to gravity. Then, the velocity can be written as follows:

v = (vx, vy)

where vx is the component of v in the horizontal and vy is the component of v in the vertical.

In terms of the launch angle, each component of the initial velocity can be written using the trigonometric rules of a right triangle (see attached figure):

sin angle = opposite / hypotenuse

cos angle = adjacent / hypotenuse

In our case, the side opposite the angle is the module of v0y and the side adjacent to the angle is the module of vx. The hypotenuse is the module of the initial velocity (v0). Then:

sin angle = v0y / v0  then: v0y = v0 * sin angle

In the same way for vx:

vx = v0 * cos angle

Using the equation for velocity in the x-axis we can find the equation for the horizontal position:

dx / dt = v0 * cos angle

dx = (v0 * cos angle) dt (integrating from initial position, x0, to position at time t and from t = 0 and t = t)

x - x0 = v0 t cos angle

x = x0 + v0 t cos angle

For the displacement in the y-axis, the velocity is not constant because the acceleration of the gravity:

dvy / dt = g ( separating variables and integrating from v0y and vy and from t = 0 and t)

vy -v0y = g t

vy = v0y + g t

vy = v0 * sin angle + g t

The position will be:

dy/dt = v0 * sin angle + g t

dy = v0 sin angle dt + g t dt (integrating from y = y0 and y and from t = 0 and t)

y = y0 + v0 t sin angle + 1/2 g t²

The displacement vector at a time "t" will be:

r = (x0 + v0 t cos angle, y0 + v0 t sin angle + 1/2 g t²)

If the launching and landing positions are at the same height, then the displacement vector, when the object lands, will be (see figure)

r = (x0 + v0 t cos angle, 0)

The module of this vector will be the the total displacement (65 m)

module of r = \sqrt{(x0 + v0* t* cos angle)^{2} }  

65 m = x0 + v0 t cos angle ( x0 = 0)

65 m / v0 cos angle = t

Then, using the equation for the position in the y-axis:

y = y0 + v0 t sin angle + 1/2 g t²

0 =  y0 + v0 t sin angle + 1/2 g t²

replacing t =  65 m / v0 cos angle and y0 = 0

0 = 65m (v0 sin angle / v0 cos angle) + 1/2 g (65m / v0 cos angle)²  

cancelating v0:

0 = 65m (sin angle / cos angle) + 1/2 g * (65m)² / (v0² cos² angle)

-65m (sin angle / cos angle) = 1/2 g * (65m)² / (v0² cos² angle)  

using g = -9.8 m/s²

-(sin angle / cos angle) * (cos² angle) = -318.5 m²/ s² / v0²

sin angle * cos angle = 318.5 m²/ s² / (36 m/s)²

(using trigonometric identity: sin x cos x = sin (2x) / 2

sin (2* angle) /2 = 0.25

sin (2* angle) = 0.49

2 * angle = 29.44

<u>angle = 14.72°</u>
