A yellow ball with a mass of 2 kg is rolling across the floor at 3 m/s. A red ball with a mass of 3 kg is rolling across the sam

e floor at 3 m/s. Which ball has greater kinetic energy, and why? The yellow ball has greater kinetic energy, because it is rolling at a higher position above the ground. The red ball has greater kinetic energy, because it has a greater mass. The yellow ball has greater kinetic energy, because it is rolling at a greater speed. The red ball has greater kinetic energy, because it is releasing more thermal energy.

The correct answer is:

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

In order to determine which ball has a higher kinetic energy, we first look at the formula of kinetic energy which is:
kinetic energy = 1/2 * mass * velocity²

The factors influencing the kinetic energy of an object are its mass and its velocity. Both of the balls have the same velocity; however, the red ball has a greater mass. Therefore,
The red ball has greater kinetic energy, because it has a greater mass.
We may also determine these quantitatively using the formula given and the kinetic energy of the yellow ball works out to be 9 J and that of the red ball is 13.5 J.

During normal beating, the heart creates a maximum 3.60 mV potential across 0.250 m of a person's chest, creating a 1.00 Hz elec
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

The maximum electric field strength is 0.0144 V/m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Electric potential created in the heart, V = 3.6 mV

Distance, d= 0.25 m

Frequency of the the electromagnetic wave, f = 1 Hz

We need to find the maximum electric field strength created. We know that the electric potential is given by :

V=Ed

E is the maximum electric field strength

E=\dfrac{V}{d}\\\\E=\dfrac{3.6\times 10^{-3}\ V}{0.25\ m}\\\\E=0.0144\ V/m

So, the maximum electric field strength is 0.0144 V/m. Hence, this is the required solution.

A current of 0.96 amps flows through a copper wire 0.44 mm in diameter when connected to a potential difference of 15 v. how lon
FinnZ [79.3K]
By using Ohm's law, we can calculate the resistance of the wire. Ohm's law states that:
V=IR
where V is the potential difference across the conductor, I is the current and R the resistance. Rearranging the equation, we get
R= \frac{V}{I}= \frac{15 V}{0.96 A}=15.6 \Omega

Now we can use the following equation to calculate the length of the wire:
R= \frac{\rho L}{A} (1)
where
\rho is the resistivity of the material
L is the length of the conductor
A is its cross-sectional area
In this problem, we have a wire of copper, with resistivity \rho=1.68 \cdot 10^{-8} \Omega m. The radius of the wire is half the diameter:
r= \frac{d}{2}= \frac{0.44 mm}{2}=0.22 mm=0.22 \cdot 10^{-3} m
And the cross-sectional area is
A=\pi r^2=\pi (0.22 \cdot 10^{-3}m)^2=1.52 \cdot 10^{-7} m^2

So now we can rearrange eq.(1) to calculate the length of the wire:
L= \frac{RA}{\rho}= \frac{(15.6 \Omega)(1.52 \cdot 10^{-7} m^2)}{1.68 \cdot 10^{-8} \Omega m}=141.1 m

What happens to gravitational potential energy as a boulder falls off a cliff?
Gnom [1K]
As the boulder falls off the cliff, the gravitational potential energy that the boulder has is converted into kinetic energy. If you do the calculations, you will see that the kinetic energy the boulder has is equal to the gravitational potential energy it had before it fell off a cliff.
