The padding absorbs the impact from the hit

Since the pad is soft and squishy, when the helmet receives a blow, the pad squishes, and absorbs as much energy and force from the hit as possible.  Not a very technical answer but hopefully that will help.

Consider an unknown charge that is released from rest at a particular location in an electric field so that it has some initial
sineoko [7]

Answer:

b)

Explanation:

If the charge is released at rest in an electric field, it will move along the electric field, going to regions of higher electric potential if it is a negative charge (against the field direction) and towards lower potential regions if it is positive (along the field). This means that the charge will gain kinetic energy, energy that only can come from a decrease in the electric potential energy.

For a positive charge: ΔEp = q*ΔV < 0 (as ΔV < 0)

For a negative charge: ΔEp = (-q) *ΔV < 0 (as ΔV > 0)

A 5 meter long ladder leans against a wall. The bottom of the ladder slides away from the wall at the constant rate of 1 3 m/s.
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:9.75 m/s

Explanation:

Given

Length of ladder (L)=5 m

Foot the ladder is moving away with speed of \frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}=13 m/s

From diagram

x^2+y^2=L^2------1

at x=3

y^2=25-9=16

y=4 m

Now differentiating equation 1 w.r.t time

2x\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}+2y\frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} t}=0

x\frac{\mathrm{d} x}{\mathrm{d} t}=-y\frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} t}

3\times 13=-4\times \frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} t}

\frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} t}=-\frac{3\times 13}{4}=-9.75 m/s

negative indicates distance is decreasing with time

At room temperature ice will melt while a brass lamp will stay as a solid. This must mean that the melting point of water is ___
UkoKoshka [18]
If solid, cold metal like brass doesn't melt at room temperature like ice does, than the bass can stand much more heat then a ice cube, so it needs to be hotter to melt, so the melting point of ice is lower then brass's melting point

D. potential energy, because there is a bunch of water pent up, essentially stationary, waiting to roll down the steep mountain from the peak, so to say. if the dam were to be removed it would become kinetic.
