Answer:

this is what popped up when I searched it up:In physics, the kinetic energy (KE) of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion. It is defined as the work needed to accelerate a body of a given mass from rest to its stated velocity. Having gained this energy during its acceleration, the body maintains this kinetic energy unless its speed changes.

Answer:

idk but here u go

go ez im not in high school

Explanation:

When you start pushing or pulling a stationary object with a constant force, it starts to move if the force you exert is greater than the net forces resisting the movement, such as friction and gravity. If the object starts to move at some speed, it will acquire kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is the energy an object has because of its motion.

A physics student stands on a cliff overlooking a lake and decides to throw a softball to her friends in the water below. She th

aliina [53]

Answer:

58.5 m

Explanation:

First of all, we need to find the total time the ball takes to reach the water. This can be done by looking at the vertical motion only.

The initial vertical velocity of the ball is

$u_y = u sin \theta$

where

u = 21.5 m/s is the initial speed

$\theta=33.5^{\circ}$ is the angle

Substituting,

$u_y = (21.5) sin 33.5^{\circ} =11.9 m/s$

The vertical position of the ball at time t is given by

$y = h + u_y t + \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

where

h = 13.5 m is the initial heigth

$g = -9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity (negative sign because it points downward)

The ball reaches the water when y = 0, so

$0 = h + u_yt +\frac{1}{2}gt^2\\0 = 13.5 +11.9 t - 4.9t^2$

Which gives two solutions: t = 3.27 s and t = -0.84 s. We discard the negative solution since it is meaningless.

The horizontal velocity of the ball is

$u_y = u cos \theta = (21.5) cos 33.5^{\circ} =17.9 m/s$

And since the motion along the horizontal direction is a uniform motion, we can find the horizontal distance travelled by the ball as follows:

$d= u_x t = (17.9)(3.27)=58.5 m$

The electric field in a region of space increases from 0 to 2150 N/C in 5.00 s. What is the magnitude of the induced magnetic fi

Feliz [49]

To solve this problem we will use the Ampere-Maxwell law, which describes the magnetic fields that result from a transmitter wire or loop in electromagnetic surveys. According to Ampere-Maxwell law:

$\oint \vec{B}\vec{dl} = \mu_0 \epsilon_0 \frac{d\Phi_E}{dt}$

Where,

B= Magnetic Field

l = length

$\mu_0$ = Vacuum permeability

$\epsilon_0$ = Vacuum permittivity

Since the change in length (dl) by which the magnetic field moves is equivalent to the perimeter of the circumference and that the electric flow is the rate of change of the electric field by the area, we have to

$B(2\pi r) = \mu_0 \epsilon_0 \frac{d(EA)}{dt}$

Recall that the speed of light is equivalent to

$c^2 = \frac{1}{\mu_0 \epsilon_0}$

Then replacing,

$B(2\pi r) = \frac{1}{C^2} (\pi r^2) \frac{d(E)}{dt}$

$B = \frac{r}{2C^2} \frac{dE}{dt}$

Our values are given as

$dE = 2150N/C$

$dt = 5s$

$C = 3*10^8m/s$

$D = 0.440m \rightarrow r = 0.220m$

Replacing we have,

$B = \frac{r}{2C^2} \frac{dE}{dt}$

$B = \frac{0.220}{2(3*10^8)^2} \frac{2150}{5}$

$B =5.25*10^{-16}T$

Therefore the magnetic field around this circular area is $B =5.25*10^{-16}T$

The stopwatch used by a student to measure velocity of a pulse in a slinky was of least count 0.1 second. He stops the stopwatch

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Least count of the pulse stopwatch is given by

$\Delta t = 0.1 s$

this means each division of the stopwatch will measure 0.1 s of time

After 3 journeys from one end to other we can see that total time that is measured here is shown by the clock as 52nd division

So here total time is given as

Time = (Number of division) (Least count)

now we will have

$T = 52 \times 0.1s$

$T = 5.2 s$

Describe three pieces of evidence that support the Big Bang theory

lisov135 [29]

Explanation :

According to astronomers, the whole universe is started with a giant explosion called as Big Bang. Big Bang theory shows that the universe is extended from high density state.

There are some evidence for big bang as :

(1) There are some red shifts of different galaxies which means that the universe is expanding.

(2) Due to the expanding of universe, some of the new elements are created like hydrogen, deuterium etc.

(3) Microwaves are detected by orbiting detectors.

All this parameters shows that big bang theory was correct.
