Answer: The correct answer is matter is made up of particles that are in constant motion and have energy.

Explanation:

Kinetic theory of matter states that the matter is made up of large number of particles which are constantly moving and due to this constant motion of the particles, the particles carry some energy in them.

This theory was also called as Kinetic-molecular theory of matter.

Hence, the correct answer is matter is made up of particles that are in constant motion and have energy

Neko [114]

Answer:

1.70 J

Explanation:

The heat dissipated is the difference in the kinetic energies.

This is given by

E = \frac{1}{2}mv_f^2 - \frac{1}{2}mv_i^2

v_i and v_f are the initial and final velocities.

With <em>m</em> = 0.175 kg,

E = \frac{1}{2}\times0.175(2.85^2 - 5.25^2) = -1.701\text{ J}

The negative sign appears because energy is lost.

A student throws a rock upwards. The rock reaches a maximum height 2.4 seconds after it was released.
Allisa [31]

Answer:

23.52 m/s

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Time taken (t) to reach the maximum height = 2.4 s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Initial velocity (u) =..?

At the maximum height, the final velocity (v) is zero. Thus, we can obtain how fast the rock (i.e initial velocity)

was thrown as follow:

v = u – gt (since the rock is going against gravity)

0 = u – (9.8 × 2.4)

0 = u – 23.52

Collect like terms

0 + 23.52 = u

u = 23.52 m/s

Therefore, the rock was thrown at a velocity of 23.52 m/s.

DIA [1.3K]

The planar simple harmonic wave travels in the positive direction of x axis with wave velocity u=2m/s, and the vibration curve of the particle at the origin in cosinusoidal form is shown in the figure.

Try to find (1) the vibration function of the particle at the origin, (2) the wave function of the planar simple harmonic wave according to the origin.

Use the drop-down menus to complete the statement about Earth’s magnetism.
Nataly [62]

Answer:

The Earth's magnetism is generated in the core, which is composed of iron that is constantly churning

Explanation:

Magnetic fields are produced by charges in motion, therefore by currents.

The outer core of the Earth consists mainly of melted iron that is in constant motion. This iron in motion actually acts as a giant current, and therefore it is responsible for the creation of the Earth's magnetic field.

The magnetic field of the Earth is very weak, in fact its magnitude is on average between 25 and 65 microtesla (for comparison, normal magnets can even produce magnetic fields of a few millitesla).

However, its role is very important for the Earth: in fact, it provides a shield that blocks most of the harmful radiation coming from the Sun.
