Ice is mightier than steel yet cowers from the sun.

Explanation

Steel is the hardest metal used in building heavy vessels for sailing or other kind of transportation.

But as it is a metal, it has freezing point so the steel may get frozen leading to failure in the working of ships at low temperatures.

Even vessels like ships, submarines can break if collided with ice blocks in the northern pole region.

So ice has the capacity to weaken the steel but it will melt easily in sunlight.

So ice is the one which mightier than steel yet cowers from the sun.

Ice is only thing which is mightier than steel because it can breaks things which are made up of steels like ships but in the sunlight ice melts away it means it cowards away.

The electric potential at the origin of an xy-coordinate system is 40 V. A -8.0-μC charge is brought from x = +∞ to that point.

vredina [299]

Answer:

-320 μJ.

Explanation:

Consider a point with an electrical charge of $q$ . Assume that $V$ is the electrical potential at the position of that charge. The electrical potential of that point charge will be equal to:

$\text{Potential Energy} = q \cdot V$ .

Keep in mind that since both $q$ and $V$ might not be positive, the size of the electrical potential energy might not be positive, either.

For this point charge,

$q = \rm -8.0\; \mu C$ ; (that's -8.0 microjoules, which equals to $\rm -8.0\times 10^{-6}\; J$ )
$V = \rm 40\; V$ .

Hence its electrical potential energy:

$\text{Potential Energy} = q\cdot V = \rm (-8.0\; \mu C) \times 40\; V = -320\; \mu J$ .

Why is this value negative? The electrical potential energy of a charge is equal to the work needed to bring that charge from infinitely far away all the way to its current position. Also, negative charges are attracted towards regions of high electrical potential. Bringing this $\rm -8.0\; \mu C$ negative charge to the origin will not require any external work. Instead, this process will release 320 μJ of energy. As a result, the electrical potential energy is a negative value.

A bird flies at a speed of 2.3 m/s if it has 14 j of kinetic energy what is the mass

Sidana [21]

Kinetic Energy = 1/2 * mv²

Kinetic Energy = 14 J, v = 2.3 m/s , m = ?

14 = 1/2 * m* 2.3²

14 = 0.5*m*2.3*2.3

m = 14 / (0.5*2.3*2.3)

m = 5.29 kg.

Mass = 5.29 kg.

An archer pulls her bowstring back 0.376 m by exerting a force that increases uniformly from zero to 251 N. (a) What is the equi

Amanda [17]

Answer:

(A) 667.5 N/m

(B)

Explanation:

(A) Let the spring constant be k.

Using the formula F = kx

k = 251 / 0.376

K = 667.5 N/m

(B)

Work done

W = 0.5 × kx^2

W = 0.5 × 667.5 × 0.376 × 0.376

W = 47.2 J
