The mass of ball a is twice the mass of ball b:
m_a = 2 m_b
This means that the initial potential energy of ball a (U_a = m_a gh=2 m_b gh) is twice the potential energy of ball b (U_b = m_b  g h):
U_a = 2 U_b
When the two balls reach the ground, the potential energy of each ball has converted into kinetic energy (since now their altitude is h=0), because the total mechanical energy of each ball must be  conserved. Therefore:
K_a = U_a
K_b = U_b
and so the kinetic energy of ball a must be twice the kinetic energy of ball b:
K_a = 2 K_b

A flat disk of radius 0.50 m is oriented so that the plane of the disk makes an angle of 30 degrees with a uniform electric fiel
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

The electric flux is 280\ \rm N.m^2/C

Explanation:

Given:

  • Radius of the disc R=0.50 m
  • Angle made by disk with the horizontal \theta=30^\circ
  • Magnitude of the electric Field E=713.0\ \rm N/C

The flux of the Electric Field E due to the are dA in space can be found out by using Gauss Law which is as follows

\phi=\int E.dA

where

  • \phi is the total Electric Flux
  • E is the Electric Field
  • dA is the Area through which the electric flux is to be calculated.

Now according to question we have

=EA\cos\theta \\=713\times 3.14\times 0.5^2 \times \cos60^\circ\\=280\ \rm N.m^2/C

Hence the electric flux is calculated.

Which is an example of a covalent bond?
velikii [3]
The correct answer is definitely C. There are less than 16 valence electrons in 2 chlorine atoms, but they form a stable bond because a covalent bond should involve <span>a pair of electrons between atoms in a molecule. I thing it's pretty clear. Regards!</span>

Aristotle supported which of these views?
katrin2010 [14]

The answer is A. The Sun and all the planets revolve around Earth.

Aristotle believed that the Earth was the centre of the solar system, and the Sun and the planets orbited around it. He believed that the universe was composed of Earth-like bodies, which were at rest, and of heavenly bodies, which were in perpetual motion.

Explain, using the kinetic theory of matter, why liquids and solids are more denser than gases
AlekseyPX
Solid and liquids are much more denser than gas because their molecules are close to each other and with that the molecules of them can't move that freely unlike the gas molecules. Also, because of being near to each other the molecules of solid and liquids became heavy making them dense.
