James and Juan were at the highest point in the football stadium, dropping water balloons on people below. Many of the balloons

did not break, so the boys added more water to the balloons. What impact did adding water have on the balloons' potential energy? A) It had no impact; it just made the balloons bigger. B) The gravitational potential energy increased because the mass increased. C) The gravitational potential energy decreased because the diameter increased. D) The gravitational potential energy remained constant because they did not increase the height.

When you add more water to the balloon, it makes it heavier. Therefore it would weigh the balloon down ( increasing mass) and increasing the energy to plummet down. So the answer is B.

A 12-kg hammer strikes a nail at a velocity of 8.5 m/s and comes to rest in a time interval of 8.0 ms. (A) What is the impulse g
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

102 kg.m/s

Explanation:

m = Mass of hammer = 12 kg

v = Final velocity = 8.5 m/s

u = Initial velocity = 0

t = Time taken = 8 ms

Force acting over a given amount of time or change in momentum is known as impulse.

Impulse

J=Ft\\\Rightarrow J=p_2-p_1\\\Rightarrow J=m(v-u)\\\Rightarrow J=12(8.5-0)\\\Rightarrow J=102\kg.m/s

Impulse given to the nail is 102 kg.m/s

Explain the difference between displacement and distance
alisha [4.7K]
<span>Distance is a scalar quantity that refers to "how much ground an object has covered" during its motion. Displacement is a vector quantity that refers to "how far out of place an object is"; it is the object's overall change in position.</span>

To reduce inductive reactance, what devices are normally placed on transmission or distribution lines?
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer : Capacitors

Explanation : Capacitors are normally  placed on transmission or distribution lines when to reduce inductive reactance.

This is because it enhances electromechanical and voltage stability , limit voltage dips at network nodes and reduces the power loss.

So, we can say that inductive reactance normally replace by the capacitors.

Find the frequency of a wave of wavelength 2.5m and speed 400 m/s
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

The frequency of wave is 160Hz.

Explanation:

Given that the formula of speed is V = f×λ where V represents speed, f is frequency and λ is wavelength.

So first thing, you have to make frequency the subject by dividing wavelength on both sides :

v = f \times λ \:

v \div  λ =  f \times λ \div λ

f =  \frac{v}{λ}

Next you have to substitute the value of v and f into the formula :

Let λ = 2.5m,

Let v = 400m/s,

f =  \frac{400}{2.5}

f = 160Hz
