By definition, the kinetic energy is given by:
 K = (1/2) * m * v ^ 2
 where
 m = mass
 v = speed
 We must then find the speed of both objects:
 blue puck
 v = root ((0) ^ 2 + (- 3) ^ 2) = 3
 gold puck
 v = root ((12) ^ 2 + (- 5) ^ 2) = 13
 Then, the kinetic energy of the system will be:
 K = (1/2) * m1 * v1 ^ 2 + (1/2) * m2 * v2 ^ 2
 K = (1/2) * (4) * (3 ^ 2) + (1/2) * (6) * (13 ^ 2)
 K = <span> 525</span> J
 answer
 The kinetic energy of the system is<span> <span>525 </span></span>J

Which of the following statements correctly describe the various applications listed above?
fgiga [73]

Answer:

The answer is "c,d,e, and g".

Explanation:

The correct choices can be defined as follows:

  • Higher-frequency microwaves aren't used in any of these systems.
  • Infrared waves aren't seen in each of these technologies.
  • Its shortest wavelength of all of the technologies listed is the above radiation generated by certain wireless networks.
  • These devices all produce waves of wavelengths ranging from 0.10 to 10.0 cm.

A 3.91 kg cart is moving at 5.7 m/s when it collides with a 4 kg cart which was at rest. They collide and stick together.
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

<em>The velocity after the collision is 2.82 m/s</em>

Explanation:

<u>Law Of Conservation Of Linear Momentum </u>

It states the total momentum of a system of bodies is conserved unless an external force is applied to it. The formula for the momentum of a body with mass m and speed v is  

P=mv.  

If we have a system of two bodies, then the total momentum is the sum of the individual momentums:

P=m_1v_1+m_2v_2

If a collision occurs and the velocities change to v', the final momentum is:

P'=m_1v'_1+m_2v'_2

Since the total momentum is conserved, then:

P = P'

Or, equivalently:

m_1v_1+m_2v_2=m_1v'_1+m_2v'_2

If both masses stick together after the collision at a common speed v', then:

m_1v_1+m_2v_2=(m_1+m_2)v'

The common velocity after this situation is:

\displaystyle v'=\frac{m_1v_1+m_2v_2}{m_1+m_2}

There is an m1=3.91 kg car moving at v1=5.7 m/s that collides with an m2=4 kg cart that was at rest v2=0.

After the collision, both cars stick together. Let's compute the common speed after that:

\displaystyle v'=\frac{3.91*5.7+4*0}{3.91+4}

\displaystyle v'=\frac{22.287}{7.91}

\boxed{v' = 2.82\ m/s}

The velocity after the collision is 2.82 m/s

While passing through a human cell, an x-ray photon interacts with and inactivates the cell’s master molecule. What is the conse
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

Cell Death

Explanation:

Cell death is defined as the biological process which ceases the function of the cell to carry out. This can be caused due to the formation of new cells in place of old cells.

Or it can be cause due to some serious disease or may be caused due to the injury or due to the death of that organism to which these cells belong.

And another case is that when X-ray photon interact with the human cell while it passes through the cell, it   will damage the cell and cease it to function well and a more drastic condition occurs and that cell become dead.

Mechanical energy is conserved in the presence of which of the following types of forces?magnetic
Tju [1.3M]
<h2>Answer: electrostatic and gravitational force </h2><h2 />

Mechanical energy remains constant (conserved) if only <u>conservative forces</u> act on the particles.  

In this sense, the following forces are conservative:  

-Gravitational  

-Elastic

-Electrostatics  

While the Friction Force and the Magnetic Force are not conservative.

According to this, mechanical energy is conserved in the presence of electrostatic and gravitational forces.
