What is the rate at which energy is transformed from one form to another called?

M/s

SashulF [63]

Answer:

a. Final velocity, V = 2.179 m/s.

b. Final velocity, V = 7.071 m/s.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Acceleration = 0.500m/s²

a. To find the velocity of the boat after it has traveled 4.75 m

Since it started from rest, initial velocity is equal to 0m/s.

Now, we would use the third equation of motion to find the final velocity.

$V^{2} = U^{2} + 2aS$

Where;

V represents the final velocity measured in meter per seconds.
U represents the initial velocity measured in meter per seconds.
a represents acceleration measured in meters per seconds square.
S represents the displacement measured in meters.

Substituting into the equation, we have;

$V^{2} = 0^{2} + 2*0.500*4.75$

$V^{2} = 4.75$

Taking the square root, we have;

$V^{2} = \sqrt {4.75}$

Final velocity, V = 2.179 m/s.

b. To find the velocity if the boat has traveled 50 m.

$V^{2} = 0^{2} + 2*0.500*50$

$V^{2} = 50$

Taking the square root, we have;

$V^{2} = \sqrt {50}$

Final velocity, V = 7.071 m/s.

A minimum temperature thermometer in a standard weather instrument shelter measures an overnight low temperature of 36 degrees F

Rudiy27

Answer:

Explanation:

Even though the minimum temperature is more than the freezing point, Frost was observed on the ground because the ground will cool rapidly as cool air tends to move towards the ground, the temperature of the ground is lower than the atmosphere a few feet above it.

As the thermometer is kept some feet above the ground so ground temperature may be lower than the minimum recorded temperature.

a 0.199 kg snowball moving west makes an inelastic collision with a 2.89 kg box moving 0.523 m/s west. afterward,they move west

kogti [31]

Answer:

The initial velocity of the snowball was 22.21 m/s

Explanation:

Since the collision is inelastic, only momentum is conserved. And since the snowball and the box move together after the collision, they have the same final velocity.

Let $m_1$ be the mass of the ball, and $v_1$ be its initial velocity; let $m_2$ be the mass of the box, and $v_2$ be its velocity; let $v_f$ be the final velocity after the collision, then according to the law of conservation of momentum:

$m_1v_1+m_2v_2=v_f(m_1+m_2)$ .

From this we solve for $v_1$ , the initial velocity of the snowball:

$\boxed{v_1=\frac{v_f(m_1+m_2)-m_2v_2}{m_1}}$

now we plug in the numerical values $m_1=0.199\:kg$ , $m_2=2.89\:kg$ , $v_2=0.523\:m/s$ , and $v_f=1.92\:m/s$ to get:

$v_1=\frac{1.92*(0.199+2.89)-2.89*0.523}{0.199}$

$\boxed{v_1=22.21\:m/s}$

The initial velocity of the snowball is 22.21 m/s.

P.S: we did not take vectors into account because everything is moving in one direction—towards the west.

What scientific theory was the subject of the scopes trial?

ICE Princess25 [194]

Scopes, who has substituted for the regular biology teacher was charged on May the 5th, 1925 with teaching evolution from a chapter in George William Hunters textbook. Civic Biology: Presented in problems which described the theory of evolution... Hope this helps!

Discuss renewable and nonrenewable resources. Give at least two advantages and two disadvantages of each.

lukranit [14]

wind = renew. wind needs to blow...very large "wind farms". no pollution

oil burns for heat or petrol. v high pollution. technology advanced
