Answer:

A baseball flying through the air at 90 miles per hour.

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is a type of energy that an object has because of its motion. In this example, a baseball that is flying through the air would have kinetic energy because of this movement. In order to move this object, a force needs to be applied to it. In order for us to know the kinetic energy of an object, we have to look at both the mass and the speed. In this case, this ball would have the greatest kinetic energy because it has the greatest speed.

Answer:

a baseball flying through the air at 90 miles per hour

Explanation:

For the question, Therefore, the kinetic energy of an object is proportional to the square of its velocity (speed). In other words, If the velocity is doubled the kinetic energy will increase by a factor of four.

castortr0y [4]

Answer:

The magnitude of the electric force between the to protons will be 57.536 N.

Explanation:

We can use Coulomb's law to find out the force, in scalar form, will be:

$F \ = \ \frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon_0 } \frac{q_1 q_2}{d^2}$ .

Now, making the substitutions

$d \ = \ 2.00 * 10 ^{-15} \ m$ ,

$q_1 = q_2 = 1.60 * 10 ^ {-19} \ C$ ,

$\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}=8.99 * 10^9 \frac{Nm^2}{C^2}$ ,

we can find:

$F \ = \ 8.99 * 10^9 \frac{Nm^2}{C^2} \frac{(1.60 * 10 ^ {-19} \ C)^2}{(2.00 * 10 ^{-15} \ m)^2}$ .

$F \ = 57.536 N$ .

Not so big for everyday life, but enormous for subatomic particles.

Gasoline burns in the cylinder of an automobile engine. During the combustion reaction, the production of gas forces the piston

serg [7]

Answer:

$\Delta U = 1640 J$

Explanation:

As we know by first law of thermodynamics that for ideal gas system we have

Heat given = change in internal energy + Work done

so here we will have

Heat given to the system = 2.2 kJ

Q = 2200 J

also we know that work done by the system is given as

$W = 560 J$

so we have

$\Delta U = Q - W$

$\Delta U = 2200 - 560$

$\Delta U = 1640 J$

What are possible units for impulse? Check all that apply. kg • m kg • N • s N • m

Vlada [557]

We know that impulse is simply the product of Force and time:

Impulse = Force * time

Since Force has a unit of Newton or kg m/s^2 and time is in seconds, therefore impulse can have units as:

N s
