Answer: "converted"

Energy can be converted from one form to another

Explanation:

The law of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed but converted from one form to another.

For instance:

- an electric generator convert mechanical energy to electrical energy

- a solar panel system convert solar energy to electrical energy.

- an electric pressing iron convert electrical energy to heat energy

Thus, energy can be converted from one form to another

A 100 kg roller coaster comes over the first hill at 2 m/sec (vo). The height of the first hill (h) is 20 meters. See roller dia

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

For the 100 kg roller coaster that comes over the first hill of height 20 meters at 2 m/s, we have:

1) The total energy for the roller coaster at the initial point is 19820 J

2) The potential energy at point A is 19620 J

3) The kinetic energy at point B is 10010 J

4) The potential energy at point C is zero

5) The kinetic energy at point C is 19820 J

6) The velocity of the roller coaster at point C is 19.91 m/s

1) The total energy for the roller coaster at the initial point can be found as follows:

$E_{t} = KE_{i} + PE_{i}$

Where:

KE: is the kinetic energy = (1/2)mv₀²

m: is the mass of the roller coaster = 100 kg

v₀: is the initial velocity = 2 m/s

PE: is the potential energy = mgh

g: is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h: is the height = 20 m

The total energy is:

$E_{t} = KE_{i} + PE_{i} = \frac{1}{2}mv_{0}^{2} + mgh = \frac{1}{2}*100 kg*(2 m/s)^{2} + 100 kg*9.81 m/s^{2}*20 m = 19820 J$

Hence, the total energy for the roller coaster at the initial point is 19820 J.

2) The potential energy at point A is:

$PE_{A} = mgh_{A} = 100 kg*9.81 m/s^{2}*20 m = 19620 J$

Then, the potential energy at point A is 19620 J.

3) The kinetic energy at point B is the following:

$KE_{A} + PE_{A} = KE_{B} + PE_{B}$

$KE_{B} = KE_{A} + PE_{A} - PE_{B}$

Since

$KE_{A} + PE_{A} = KE_{i} + PE_{i}$

we have:

$KE_{B} = KE_{i} + PE_{i} - PE_{B} = 19820 J - mgh_{B} = 19820 J - 100kg*9.81m/s^{2}*10 m = 10010 J$

Hence, the kinetic energy at point B is 10010 J.

4) The potential energy at point C is zero because h = 0 meters.

$PE_{C} = mgh = 100 kg*9.81 m/s^{2}*0 m = 0 J$

5) The kinetic energy of the roller coaster at point C is:

$KE_{i} + PE_{i} = KE_{C} + PE_{C}$

$KE_{C} = KE_{i} + PE_{i} = 19820 J$

Therefore, the kinetic energy at point C is 19820 J.

6) The velocity of the roller coaster at point C is given by:

$KE_{C} = \frac{1}{2}mv_{C}^{2}$

$v_{C} = \sqrt{\frac{2KE_{C}}{m}} = \sqrt{\frac{2*19820 J}{100 kg}} = 19.91 m/s$

Hence, the velocity of the roller coaster at point C is 19.91 m/s.

I hope it helps you!

A rough estimate of the radius of a nucleus is provided by the formula r 5 kA1/3, where k is approximately 1.3 × 10213 cm and A

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

Density of 127 I = $\rm 1.79\times 10^{14}\ g/cm^3.$

Also, $\rm Density\ of\ ^{127}I=3.63\times 10^{13}\times Density\ of\ the\ solid\ iodine.$

Explanation:

Given, the radius of a nucleus is given as

$\rm r=kA^{1/3}$ .

where,

$\rm k = 1.3\times 10^{-13} cm.$

A is the mass number of the nucleus.

The density of the nucleus is defined as the mass of the nucleus M per unit volume V.

$\rm \rho = \dfrac{M}{V}=\dfrac{M}{\dfrac 43 \pi r^3}=\dfrac{M}{\dfrac 43 \pi (kA^{1/3})^3}=\dfrac{M}{\dfrac 43 \pi k^3A}.$

For the nucleus 127 I,

Mass, M = $\rm 2.1\times 10^{-22}\ g.$

Mass number, A = 127.

Therefore, the density of the 127 I nucleus is given by

$\rm \rho = \dfrac{2.1\times 10^{-22}\ g}{\dfrac 43 \times \pi \times (1.3\times 10^{-13})^3\times 127}=1.79\times 10^{14}\ g/cm^3.$

On comparing with the density of the solid iodine,

$\rm \dfrac{Density\ of\ ^{127}I}{Density\ of\ the\ solid\ iodine}=\dfrac{1.79\times 10^{14}\ g/cm^3}{4.93\ g/cm^3}=3.63\times 10^{13}.\\\\\Rightarrow Density\ of\ ^{127}I=3.63\times 10^{13}\times Density\ of\ the\ solid\ iodine.$

What steps are involved in creating hydroelectric power?

Mama L [17]

Answer:

Water falls from a reservoir through a channel to a turbine. The water turns the turbines, which allows the generator to make electricity.

It is falling instead of flowing, because elavation is an important part of the hydroeletric power plant, since gravity is a thing, and there was elevation, than it would be falling and not flowing.
