They should be bigger as if it is hot the tracks will expand as it is made of metal and then there is more room for it to expand or contract

A particle with charge 6 mC moving in a region where only electric forces act on it has a kinetic energy of 1.9000000000000001 J
Vesna [10]

Answer:

16.9000000000000001 J

Explanation:

From the given information:

Let the initial kinetic energy from point A be K_A = 1.9000000000000001 J

and the final kinetic energy from point B be K_B = ???

The charge particle Q = 6 mC = 6 × 10⁻³ C

The change in the electric potential from point B to A;

i.e. V_B - V_A = -2.5 × 10³ V

According to the work-energy theorem:

-Q × ΔV = ΔK

-Q \times ( V_B - V_A) = (K_B - K_A)

-(6\times 10^{-3}\ C) \times ( -2.5 \times 10^3) = (K_B - 1.9000000000000001 \ J)

15 = (K_B - 1.9000000000000001 \ J)

K_B = 15+ 1.9000000000000001 \ J

\mathbf{K_B =1 6.9000000000000001 \ J}

Who water rocket starts from rest and roses straight up with an acceleration of 5 m/s until it runs out of water 2.5 seconds lat
Kitty [74]

Answer:

23. 4375 m

Explanation:

There are two parts of the rocket's motion

1 ) accelerating  (assume it goes upto  h1 height )

using motion equations upwards

s = ut+\frac{1}{2}*a*t^{2} \\h_1=0+\frac{1}{2}*5*2.5^{2} \\=15.625 m

Lets find the velocity after 2.5 seconds (V1)

V = U +at

V1 = 0 +5*2.5 = 12.5 m/s  

2) motion under gravity (assume it goes upto  h2 height )

now there no acceleration from the rocket. it is now subjected to the gravity

using motion equations upwards (assuming g= 10m/s² downwards)

V²= U² +2as

0 = 12.5²+2*(-10)*h2

h2 = 7.8125 m

maximum height = h1 + h2

                            = 15.625 + 7.8125

                            = 23. 4375 m

Which of the following would decrease your carbon footprint?
salantis [7]
The third option seems correct. Using any bag more than once will help in decreasing the carbon foot print.

This isds beause, if you use paper bag once only, then paper bag is being utilised and more and more paper is being used. So the best way is to use the bag more than once, whichever bag u are using.
