The answer is D, because all of the others show an object at work, when an object that has potential energy has to be at rest, like when you are at the top of a hill, or the highest point a rocket can go before it comes back done to the ground.

A wall clock has a minute hand with a length of 0.55 m and an hour hand with a length of 0.26 m. Take the center of the clock as
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

The magnitude of the acceleration of the tip of the minute hand of the clock 1.675\times10^{-6}\ m/s^2.

Explanation:

Given that,

Length of minute hand = 0.55 m

Length of hour hand = 0.26 m

The time taken by the minute hand to complete one revelation is

T= 3600\ sec

We need to calculate the angular frequency

Using formula of angular frequency

\omega=\dfrac{2\pi}{T}

Put the value into the formula

\omega=\dfrac{2\pi}{3600}

\omega=0.001745\ rad/s

We need to calculate the magnitude of the acceleration of the tip of the minute hand of the clock

Using formula of acceleration

a=r\omega^2

Put the value into the formula

a=0.55\times(0.001745)^2

a=1.675\times10^{-6}\ m/s^2

Hence, The magnitude of the acceleration of the tip of the minute hand of the clock 1.675\times10^{-6}\ m/s^2.

An object of volume 0.0882 m3 is
vfiekz [6]

The density of the fluid is 776.3 m^{-3}

<u>Explanation:</u>

Buoyant force is the upward pushing force whenever an object is trying to get immersed in fluid. So this is the force given by the fluid on the object which is trying to get immersed. The buoyant force is found to be directly proportional to the product of density of the object, volume of the object. And here the acceleration due to gravity will be acting as proportionality constant.

      Buoyant force = Density \times Volume \times Acceleration

As, buoyant force is given as 671 N and volume is 0.0882 m^{3} and acceleration is known as 9.8 m/s^{2}. Then density is

   \text { Density }=\frac{\text { Buoyant force }}{\text {Volume } \times \text {Acceleration}}

Thus,

   \text { Density }=\frac{671}{0.0882 \times 9.8}=\frac{671}{0.86436}=776.296 \mathrm{kg} / \mathrm{m}^{3}

Density is 776.3 kg m^{-3}.

A sinusoidal wave has period 0.20 s and wavelength 2.0 m. What is the wave speed?
il63 [147K]

Answer:10m/s

Explanation:

Wave speed ,v=for

Where π= wavelength=2m

Period =1/f f=frequency of wave

F=1/period

=1/0.2=5Hz

So speed of waves,v=5×2=10m/s

For the circuit shown in (Figure 1), find the potential difference between points a and b. Each resistor has
Lynna [10]

The potential difference between points a and b is zero.

<h3>Total emf of the series circuit</h3>

The total emf in the circuit is the sum of all the emf in the circuit.

emf(total) = 1.5 + 1.5 = 3.0 V

<h3>Potential difference</h3>

The potential difference between two points, a and b is calculated as follows;

V(ab) = Va - Vb

V(ab) = 1.5 - 1.5

V(ab) = 0

Thus, the potential difference between points a and b is zero.
