How much will the kinetic energy of a school bus increase if its velocity is tripled?
son4ous [18]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given a school bus.

Let say initially the school bus is traveling with speed "v"

Let assume mass of school bus is "m"

Then, the initial kinetic energy is

K.E_initial = ½mv²

Now, if the initial velocity is tripled,

Then, the new velocity is

v_new = 3v.

Note: the mass of the school does not change it is constant

Then, new kinetic energy is

K.E_new = ½m(v_new)²

v_new = 3v

Then,

K.E_new = ½m(3v)²

K.E_new = ½m × 9v²

K.E_new = 9 × ½mv²

Since K.E = ½mv²

Then,

K.E_new = 9 × K.E

So, the new kinetic energy will be 9 times the initial kinetic energy.

So, option D is correct

D. It will be nine times greater.

At the instant shown in the diagram, the car's centripetal acceleration is directed
serg [7]

Answer:

At the instant shown in the diagram, the car's centripetal acceleration is directed is discussed below in detail.

Explanation:

The direction of the centripetal acceleration is in a circular movement is forever towards the middle of the roundabout pathway. In the picture displayed, the East direction is approaching the center. So, the course of the car's centripetal acceleration is (H) toward the east.

Why Newton's law of gravitation also called universal law?
Bond [772]

Answer:

Explanation:

Newton's law of gravitation states that every particle of matter attracts any other particle in the universe with a force directly proportional to the product of there masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

<u>This law is also called universal law because it is applicable to all masses at all distances irrespective of the medium</u>.

How many hours would it take for a single prokaryote, dividing every 20 minutes by binary fission in a favorable environment, to
butalik [34]

Answer:

170\frac{2}{3} hrs

Explanation:

in every 20 minutes the prokaryote divides to produce one of itself .

Mathematically,

20 mins:1 of its kind

x mins :512 of its kind

Where x is the amount of time (in minutes) needed by the prokaryote to produce 512 of its kind.

This implies that,

By cross multiplying we obtain,

x = 20 \times 512 = 10240mins

We now convert the time in minutes into hours.

Knowing very well that 60 minutes equals an hour, to convert 10240 minutes to hour we divide by 60.

This implies that,

10240 \div 60 = 170 \frac{2}{3}
