Answer: The option (C) is correct. The energy travels horizontally.

Explanation: When the pebble is thrown into a calm lake, there will be disturbance in the lake. The ripples are formed from the center and move outward because the energy is carried out from particle to particle.

The distribution of the energy among the particles starts from center and it will carry out outward. This disturbance will occur horizontally.

Therefore, the energy travels horizontally.

A 6.0 g marble is fired vertically upward using a spring gun. The spring must be compressed 9.4 cm if the marble is to just reac
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

a) \Delta U_{g} = 12.945\,J, b) \Delta U_{k} = 12.945\,J, c) k = 2930.059\,\frac{N}{m}

Explanation:

a) The change in the gravitational potential energy of the marble-Earth system is:

\Delta U_{g} = (0.06\,kg)\cdot \left(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}\right)\cdot (22\,m)

\Delta U_{g} = 12.945\,J

b) The change in the elastic potential energy of the spring is equal to the change in the gravitational potential energy, then:

\Delta U_{k} = 12.945\,J

c) The spring constant of the gun is:

\Delta U_{k} = \frac{1}{2} \cdot k \cdot x^{2}

k = \frac{2\cdot \Delta U_{k}}{x^{2}}

k = \frac{2\cdot (12.945\,J)}{(0.094\,m)^{2}}

k = 2930.059\,\frac{N}{m}

h(t) = - 16t2 + 64t + 112 where t is the time in seconds. After how many seconds does the arrow reach it maximum height? Round t
laila [671]

Answer:

2 seconds

Explanation:

The function of height is given in form of time. For maximum height, we need to use the concept of maxima and minima of differentiation.

h(t)=-16t^{2}+64t+112

Differentiate with respect to t on both the sides, we get

\frac{dh}{dt}=-32t+64

For maxima and minima, put the value of dh / dt is equal to zero. we get

- 32 t + 64 = 0

t = 2 second

Thus, the arrow reaches at maximum height after 2 seconds.

How do magnetic forces repel or attract?
Lerok [7]

“Magnets are surrounded by an invisible magnetic field that is made by the movement of electrons, the subatomic particles that circle the nucleus of an atom”



“Every magnet has both a north and a south pole. When you place the north pole of one magnet near the south pole of another magnet, they are attracted to one another. When you place like poles of two magnets near each other (north to north or south to south), they will repel each other.”
