Hi!

The energy of the block is 4 m/s

To calculate this, you need to use the equation for kinetic energy. The block is sliding (i.e. it's moving). If the object is sliding across a level surface, the only energy it has is kinetic energy, because there is no change in potential energy (which changes with height). So, the mechanical energy will be pure kinetic energy. The equation is the following, derived from the expression for kinetic energy:

v= \sqrt{ \frac{2*Ke}{m}}=\sqrt{ \frac{2*20 (kg*m^{2}*s^{-2}) }{2,5kg}}=4 m/s

Have a nice day!

If the primary of a transformer were connected to a dc power source,
QveST [7]

Answer:

D. only briefly while being connected or disconnected.

Explanation:

As we know that transformer works on the principle of mutual inductance

here we know that as per the principle of mutual inductance when flux linked with the primary coil charges then it will induce EMF in secondary coil

So here when AC source is connected with primary coil then it will give output across secondary coil because AC source will have change in flux with time.

Now when we connect DC source across primary coil then it will not induce any EMF across secondary coil because DC source is a constant voltage source in which flux will remain constant always

So here in DC source the EMF will only induce at the time of connection or disconnection when flux will change in it while rest of the time it will give ZERO output

so correct answer will be

D. only briefly while being connected or disconnected.

The ability of your joints and muscles to move in their full range of motion is called
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

Dynamic flexibility

Explanation:

Dynamic flexibility can be generally defined as the ability of the body muscles and joints to move in full range of motion. High flexibility in these joints and muscles leads to the decreasing pain and injury in different parts of the body.

Proper warm up exercises are needed to be carried out that involves both the combination of controlling movements and stretching of the body, and this directly enhances the dynamic flexibility of the body.

The athletes and sports persons possesses a good dynamic flexibility of their body as they carry our different types of body exercises.

Art [367]

Answer:

Flexibility Increases

Pre-breathe time decreases

Mass of suit decreases.

Explanation:

Spacesuits are designed for space shuttles when a person goes to explore the galaxy. The spacesuits shuttle era are pressurized at 4.3 pounds per inch. The gas in the suit is 100% of oxygen and there is more oxygen to breathe when the altitude of 10,000 is reached. This will decrease the breathing time and mass of suit.
