Answer:

The red ball has greater kinetic energy because it is moving at the same speed as the yellow ball, which is lighter than the red ball.

Explanation:

Formula for kinetic energy: 1/2mv²

Yellow ball:

= 1/2(2)(3)²

=1/2(2)(9)

= 9J

Red ball:

= 1/2(3)(3)²

=1/2(3)(9)

= 13.5J

Answer:

The red ball has greater kinetic energy, because it has a greater mass.

A 1300-N crate rests on the floor. How much work is required to move it at constant speed (a)
kherson [118]

a) The work done is 920 J

b) The work done is 5200 J

Explanation:

a)

In this first part of the problem, the crate is moved horizontally at constant speed.

The work required in this case is given by

W=Fd cos \theta

where

F is the magnitude of the force applied

d is the displacement of the crate

\theta is the angle between the direction of the force and of the displacement

Here the crate is moved at constant speed: this means that the acceleration of the crate is zero, and so according to Newton's second law, the net force on the crate is zero: this means that the force applied, F, must be equal to the force of friction (but in opposite direction), so

F = 230 N

The displacement is

d = 4.0 m

And the angle is \theta=0^{\circ}, since the force is applied horizontally. Therefore, the work done is

W=(230)(4.0)(cos 0^{\circ})=920 J

b)

In this case, the crate is moved vertically. The force that must be applied to lift the crate must be equal to the weight of the crate (in order to move it a constant speed), therefore

F = W = 1300 N

The displacement this time is again

d = 4.0 m

And the angle is \theta=0^{\circ}, since the force is applied vertically, and the crate is moved also vertically. Therefore, the work done on the crate this time is

W=(1300)(4.0)(cos 0^{\circ})=5200 J

When food is digested, the
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

Chemical change

Explanation:

A chemical change is what happens. The food digested changes smell due to some enzyme the has acted on the food which catalyzes the rate of digestion. The enzymes acts on the food in order to speed up the rate of the reaction (digestion) and in turn causing the smell.
