Explanation:

Grace [21]3 years ago

Answer:

When you use your control remote, you can see that there is not a "material" thing that comes out of the control remote and goes to the TV, but there is actually energy that comes from the control remote (and this is why your control remote needs battery)

This energy is called an "electromagnetic wave" usually in the infrared range, this means that the energy that comes from the control remote has less energy than the visible red light (and this is why we can not see the light that comes out of the control remote), and this "signal" is read by the TV, in order to change of channel or change the volume.

You even can see that there is a sort of light (electromagnetic wave) coming out from it if you point with a camera to the small bulb that is in the front of the control remote.

State the Independence of motion
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

The motion of a projectile is a two-dimensional motion. ... This is called the principle of physical independence of motions. The velocity of the projectile can be resolved into two mutually perpendicular components: the horizontal component and the vertical component. Acceleration changes velocity.

lawyer [7]

Answer:

69.44kJ

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is expressed as;

KE = 1/2mv^2

m is the mass = 500kg

v is the velocity

Get the velocity;

v = displacement/time

velocity = 2000/120

velcoity = 16.7m/s

Gt the kinetic energy

KE = 1/2 * 500 * 16.7²

KE = 250*277.78

KE = 69,444.4Joules

Since 1000J = 1kJ

69,444.4Joules = 69,444.4/1000

69,444.4Joules = 69.44kJ

Hence the Secretariat's average kinetic energy is  69.44kJ

While running, a person dissipates about 0.60 J of mechanical energy per step per kilogram of body mass. If a 68 kg person devel
Tresset [83]

Answer:

Speed = 2.25 m/s

Explanation:

(Assume a running step is 1.5 m long)

Given the following data;

Energy = 0.6J

Power = 61 Watts

Mass = 68 kg

To find how fast the person running;

First of all, we would determine the total mechanical energy being dissipated by the person.

Total energy = 0.6 * 68

Total energy = 40.8 Joules

Next, we find the time;

Energy = power * time

40.8 = 61 * time

Time = 61/40.8

Time = 1.5 seconds

Finally, to find the speed;

Speed = distance/time

Speed = number of steps * time

Speed = 1.5 * 1.5

Speed = 2.25 m/s

OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

<u>198785.714286 Joules</u>

Explanation:

W=f*d

F=ma\\F=516.326530612*-14\\F=-7228.57142857 N\\

<u>To find work:</u>

Now that the force and the distance are known, plug and chug:

W=f*d\\W=-7228.57142857*27.5\\W=-198785.714286J

Note that the question is asking for the magnitude of work, so the negative can be discarded as it is a directional component.

So, your answer is

<u>198785.714286 Joules</u>
