Answer:

Gravitational potential energy is converted into kinetic energy

Explanation:

During an avalanche, the gravitational potential

energy of the snow on the mountain is converted into

kinetic energy as the snow cascades down.

The potential energy stored by the snow collected high in the mountain under the gravitational field created by our Earth, breaks loose and as it comes down acquiring velocity, it is converted into kinetic energy due to its accelerated motion

A 1.2 kg block is held at rest against the spring with a force constant k= 730 N/m. Initially, the spring is compressed a distan

mariarad [96]

Answer:

d = 9.69 cm

Explanation:

given,

mass of the block = 1.2 Kg

spring force constant(k) = 730 N/m

spring is compressed = d = ?

rough patch width = 5 cm

μ_k = 0.44

work done by friction = energy lost

$\mu_k mg \times x = \dfrac{1}{2}kd^2-\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

$0.44\times 1.2 \times 9.8 \times 0.05 = \dfrac{1}{2}\times 730 \times d^2-\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1.2 \times 2.3^2$

$3.432 = 365 d^2$

$d = \dfrac{3.432}{365}$

d = 0.0969 m

d = 9.69 cm

if a material has a half-life of 24 hours, how long do you have to wait until the amount of radioisotope is 1/4 its original amo

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

48 hours

Explanation:

Using the formula,

R/R' = 2ᵃ/ᵇ..................... Equation 1

Where R = Original amount, R' = Radioactive remain, a = Total time, b = half life.

Given: b = 24 hours,

Let: R = X, then R' = X/4.

Substitute into equation 1

X/(X/4) = 2ᵃ/²⁴

4 = 2ᵃ/²⁴

2² = 2ᵃ/²⁴

Equating the base and solving for a

2 = a/24

a = 24×2

a = 48 hours.

Hence the time = 48 hours
