Answer:
C. Waves transfer energy, but not matter.
Explanation: hope this helps :)
Answer:
The K.E is maximum when the child is at the vertical position and the P.E is maximum at the extreme deviated position from the vertical.
Explanation:
- A child is swinging on swing up and down has both kinetic and potential energy.
- The total mechanical energy of the system is conserved throughout the system. At any instant the total mechanical energy is given by,
E = K.E + P.E
- The K.E is maximum when the child is at the vertical position.
- The P.E is maximum at the extreme deviated position from the vertical.
- And when K.E is maximum P.E becomes minimum and vice versa as per the law of conservation of energy.
The potential energy that the ball has at the top of the tower is its kinetic energy when it hits the ground. The second ball has more potential energy at the top, because you did more work on it to carry it up there. So it has more KE at the bottom. (A)
Electrical current will flow through a solid by the means of
electrons. The electrons in the solid
must be able to move from lower to higher electrical potential. The electric
current in certain solid electrolytes like ice is entirely composed of flowing
ions.
Answer:
a. 120 W
b. 28.8 N
Explanation:
To a good approximate, the only external force that does work on a cyclist moving on level ground is the force of air resistance. Suppose a cyclist is traveling at 15 km/h on level ground. Assume he is using 480 W of metabolic power.
a. Estimate the amount of power he uses for forward motion.
b. How much force must he exert to overcome the force of air resistance?
(a)
He is 25% efficient, therefore the cyclist will be expending 25% of his power to drive the bicycle forward
Power = efficiency X metabolic power
= 0.25 X 480
= 120 W
(b)
power if force times the velocity
P = Fv
convert 15 km/h to m/s
v = 15 kmph = 4.166 m/s
F = P/v
= 120/4.166
= 28.8 N
definition of terms
power is the rate at which work is done
force is that which changes a body's state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line
velocity is the change in displacement per unit time.
