How does an ocean wave transfer energy across the ocean?

1 answer:

3 0

The energy travels in a disturbance, in an ocean that disturbance is a wave, so the wave makes energy and moves it through the water

Two cars are traveling along a straight line in the same direction, the lead car at 25 m/s and the other car at 35 m/s. At the m

Phoenix [80]

Answer:

a. $t_1=12.5\ s$

b. $a_2=-13.61\ m.s^{-2}$ must be the minimum magnitude of deceleration to avoid hitting the leading car before stopping

c. $t_2=2.5714\ s$ is the time taken to stop after braking

Explanation:

Given:

speed of leading car, $u_1=25\ m.s^{-1}$

speed of lagging car, $u_{2}=35\ m.s^{-1}$

distance between the cars, $\Delta s=45\ m$

deceleration of the leading car after braking, $a_1=-2\ m.s^{-2}$

Time taken by the car to stop:

$v_1=u_1+a_1.t_1$

where:

$v_1=0$ , final velocity after braking

$t_1=$ time taken

$0=25-2\times t_1$

$t_1=12.5\ s$

using the eq. of motion for the given condition:

$v_2^2=u_2^2+2.a_2.\Delta s$

where:

$v_2=$ final velocity of the chasing car after braking = 0

$a_2=$ acceleration of the chasing car after braking

$0^2=35^2+2\times a_2\times 45$

$a_2=-13.61\ m.s^{-2}$ must be the minimum magnitude of deceleration to avoid hitting the leading car before stopping

time taken by the chasing car to stop:

$v_2=u_2+a_2.t_2$

$0=35-13.61\times t_2$

$t_2=2.5714\ s$ is the time taken to stop after braking

An 11.0 -W energy-efficient fluorescent lightbulb is designed to produce the same illumination as a conventional 40.0-W incandes

yarga [219]

The amount or cost that the user of the energy-efficient bulb save during 100h of use will be $0.319.

<h3>How to calculate the cost?</h3>

For the 11.0W bulb, it should be noted that the value will be:

= 11.0 × 100 × (1/1000) × 0.110

= $0.121

The 40W bulb will be:

= 40 × 100 × (1/1000) × 0.110

= $0.44

Therefore, the amount that will be saved will be:

= $0.44 - $0.121

= $0.319

You hold a metal block of mass 40 kg above your head at a height of 2 m.

Kitty [74]

Answer:

The work done by gravity is 784 J.

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the block is, $m=40\ kg$

Height to which it is raised is, $h=2\ m$

Acceleration due to gravity is, $g=9.8\ m/s^2$

Now, work done by gravity is equal to the product of force of gravity and the distance moved in the direction of gravity. So,

$\textrm{Work by gravity}=F_g\times h$

Force of gravity is given as the product of mass and acceleration due to gravity.

$\therefore F_g=mg=40\times 9.8=392\ N$ . Now,

$\textrm{Work by gravity}=F_g\times h=392\times 2=784\ J$

Therefore, the work done by gravity is 784 J.
