Hi!
The energy of the block is 4 m/s
To calculate this, you need to use the equation for
kinetic energy. The block is sliding (i.e. it's moving). If the object is sliding across a level surface, the only energy it has is kinetic energy, because
there is no change in potential energy (which changes with height). So, the mechanical energy will be pure kinetic energy. The equation is the following, derived from the expression for kinetic energy:
Have a nice day!
Answer:
t'=1.1897 μs
Explanation:
First we will calculate the velocity of micrometeorite relative to spaceship.
Formula:
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'=0.9806c
Time for micrometeorite to pass spaceship can be calculated as:
(c = 3*10^8 m/s)
t'=1.1897 μs
Answer:
Increasing its charge
Increasing the field strength
Explanation:
For a charged particle moving in a circular path in a uniform magnetic field, the centripetal force is provided by the magnetic force, so we can write:
where
q is the charge
v is the velocity
B is the magnetic field
m is the mass
r is the radius of the orbit
The period of the motion is
Re-arranging for r
And substituting into the previous equation
Solving for T,
So we see that the period is:
- proportional to the charge and the magnetic field
- inversely proportional to the mass and the square of the speed
So the following will increase the period of the particle's motion:
Increasing its charge
Increasing the field strength
It has been hypothesized, and some studies have supported the conjecture,
that certain species of insects and birds are able to sense the direction of external
magnetic fields.
I don't think there is any such notion where human beings are concerned.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
Gravitational Energy is the energy of position or place. A rock resting at the top of a hill contains gravitational Potential energy. Hydropower, such as water in a reservoir behind a dam, is an example of gravitational potential energy.
