The formula for kinetic energy is:

KE = 0.5mv^2

where:
m = mass
v = speed

Given this formula, the original KE of the scooter is calculated as 392 J. Since the speed is doubled, it can be observed in the formula that the change would actually affect the kinetic energy by quadrupling it. This is because 2^2 is 4. So, 392(4) = 1568 J or B.

A particle moves along the x-axis so that its velocity at anytime is t greater than or equal to 0 is given by v(t)=1-sin(2pi t)
UkoKoshka [18]
A) We differentiate the expression for velocity to obtain an expression for acceleration:
v(t) = 1 - sin(2πt)
dv/dt = -2πcos(2πt)
a = -2πcos(2πt)

b) Any value of t can be plugged in as long as it is greater than or equal to 0. 

c) we integrate the expression of velocity to find an expression for displacement:
∫v(t) dt = ∫ 1 - sin(2πt) dt
x(t) = t + cos(2πt)/2π + c
x(0) = 0
0 = = + cos(0)/2π + c
c = -1/2π
x(t) = t + cos(2πt)/2π -1/2π

Can someone please explain the quantum theory in simple terms
BaLLatris [955]
Quantum theory is the theoretical basis of modern physics that explains the nature and behavior of matter and energy on the atomic and subatomic level. The nature and behavior of matter and energy at that level is sometimes referred to as quantum physics and quantum mechanics.

What is an independent variable
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

An independent variable is a variable that is manipulated to determine the value of a dependent variable. The dependent variable is what is being measured in an experiment or evaluated in a mathematical equation and the independent variables are the inputs to that measurement.
