Explanation:

The kinetic energy is possessed due to the motion of the particles. The kinetic energy depends on the velocity.

The kinetic energy is directly proportional to the temperature. The kinetic energy  of the particles increases with the rise in temperature.

In the given problem, the pot of water is placed on the stove. Then, heat is transferred to the water. The water molecules will move faster with the rise in temperature of the water. The water molecules will have greater kinetic energy due to increase in temperature.

<span>Temperature causes water molecules to move more quickly, because each individual molecule has more energy as it gets hotter (according to Kinetic molecular theory). If you get water hot enough, the molecules move so much that the hydrogen bonds that hold them together start to break and the water becomes a gas ... water vapor. This your answer unless there are choices.</span>

You have two points in a soil. Point A is at 75 cm; point B is at 25 cm above the reference. The capillary potential energy at p
user100 [1]

Answer:

The potential energy at point A is 17.1675 J

Explanation:

The capillary potential is the work expended to bring up a unit mass of liquid to a point in a capillary region from a level liquid surface. It is the capillary potential that facilitates the movement of moisture within soil capillaries

In meteorology it is used to describe the level of saturated soil above the water table

Potential energy is the energy inherent in a body by virtue of its position, therefore the potentials of both point A and B are

Point A, elevation = 75 cm capillary potential = -100 cm

Point B, elevation = 25 cm capillary potential = -200 cm

The total potential energy at point A is

Elevation above reference - capillary potential =75-(-100) = 175 cm

which gives per unit mass

PE = m × g × h = 1 kg × 9.81 m/s ² × 1.75 m = 17.1675 kg·m²/s² = 17.1675 J

A meteor moving 468 km per minute traveling in a south-to-north direction passed near Earth in 2013. Does this statement describ
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

this statement describes meteor's velocity,

because velocity is a vector quantity which has both magnitude as well as a specific direction and here the meteor's direction is specified in the statement hence we conclude that this statement describes meteor's velocity as well as speed too.

b. A string is wrapped around a pulley of radius 0.05 m and moment of inertia 0.2 kg  m2. If the string is pulled with a force
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

f = 8 N

Explanation:

Data provided in the question

Radius of the pulley  = r = 0.05 m

Moment of inertia = (I) = 0.2 kg.m^{2}

Angular acceleration = ∝ = 2 rad/sec

Based on the above information

As we know that

Torque is

= force \times  radius

= f \times r

And,

Torque is also

= moment\ of\ inertia \times angular\ acceleration

= I \times \alpha

So,

We can say that

f \times r = I \times \alpha

f \times 0.05 = 0.2 \times 2

0.05f = 0.4

f = 8 N

We simply applied the above formulas

An orbiting satellite can become charged by the photoelectric effect when sunlight ejects electrons from its outer surface. Sate
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

the longest wavelength of incident sunlight that can eject an electron from the platinum is 233 nm

Explanation:

Given data

Φ = 5.32 eV

to find out

the longest wavelength

solution

we know that

hf = k(maximum) +Ф   ...............1

here we consider k(maximum ) will be zero because photon wavelength max when low photon energy

so hf = 0

and hc/ λ = +Ф

so λ = hc/Ф  ................2

now put value hc = 1240 ev nm and Φ = 5.32 eV

so hc = 1240 / 5.32

hc = 233 nm

the longest wavelength of incident sunlight that can eject an electron from the platinum is 233 nm

A mass moves back and forth in simple harmonic motion with amplitude A and period T.
Sever21 [200]

a. 0.5 T

- The amplitude A of a simple harmonic motion is the maximum displacement of the system with respect to the equilibrium position

- The period T is the time the system takes to complete one oscillation

During a full time period T, the mass on the spring oscillates back and forth, returning to its original position. This means that the total distance covered by the mass during a period T is 4 times the amplitude (4A), because the amplitude is just half the distance between the maximum and the minimum position, and during a time period the mass goes from the maximum to the minimum, and then back to the maximum.

So, the time t that the mass takes to move through a distance of 2 A can be found by using the proportion

1 T : 4 A = t : 2 A

and solving for t we find

t=\frac{(1T)(2 A)}{4A}=0.5 T

b. 1.25T

Now we want to know the time t that the mass takes to move through a total distance of 5 A. SInce we know that

- the mass takes a time of 1 T to cover a distance of 4A

we can set the following proportion:

1 T : 4 A = t : 5 A

And by solving for t, we find

t=\frac{(1T)(5 A)}{4A}=\frac{5}{4} T=1.25 T
