Two students make the following claims:

Physics
1 answer:
antiseptic1488 [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

E. Student 1 is correct, because as θ is increased, h is the same.

Explanation:

Here we have the object of a certain mass falling under gravity so the force acting on the it will depend on mass of the object and the acceleration due to gravity.

Mathematically:

F=m.g

As we know that the work done is evaluated as the force applied on a body and the displacement of the body in the direction of the force.

And for work we have:

W=F.s\cos\theta

where:

s= displacement of the object

\theta= angle between the force and displacement vectors

Given that the height of the object is same in each trail of falling object under the gravity be it a free-fall or the incline plane.

  • In case of free-fall the angle between the force is and the displacement is zero.
  • In case when the body moves along the inclined plane the force applied by the gravity is same because it depends upon the mass of the object. And the net displacement in the direction of the gravitational force is the height of the object which is constant in both the cases.

So, the work done by the gravitational force is same in the two cases.

If an object has a kinetic energy of 30 j and mass of 34kg how fast is the object moving ?
cricket20 [7]

Ek = (m*V^2) / 2 where m is mass and V is speed, then we can take this equation and manipulate it a little to isolate the speed.

Ek = mv^2 / 2 — multiply both sides by 2

2Ek = mv^2 — divide both sides by m

2Ek / m = V^2 — switch sides

V^2 = 2Ek / m — plug in values

V^2 = 2*30J / 34kg

V^2 = 60J/34kg

V^2 = 1.76 m/s — sqrt of both sides

V = sqrt(1.76)

V = 1.32m/s (roughly)

Molecular motion is a measure of the movement of the molecules in a substance. Molecular motion is substantially different betwe
scZoUnD [109]
<span>Generally speaking, the level of molecular motion is highest in gases, where molecules move around freely in space, bouncing off of each other, and lowest in solids, where molecules are bound together in a rigid structure. As such, the answer would be A; "the molecules in air move more than the molecules in wood".</span>

A person travels by car from one city to another with different constant speeds between pair of cities. She drives for 36 min at
Softa [21]

 Change minutes to hrs, divide by 60:
30 min = .50 hrs
45 min = .75 hrs
12 min = .20 hrs
----------------
total + 1.45 hrs, total travel time
:

let a = average speed for the trip
:
Write a dist equation, dist = speed * time
:
80(.5) + 100(.20) + 40(.75) = 1.45a
40 + 20 + 30 = 1.45a
90 = 1.45a
a =
a = 62.069 km/h, for the entire trip
and
90 km is the total distance

An object is given a very small amount of charge. Which of the following could
spayn [35]

5.4*10^-19 C

Explanation:

For the purposes of this question, charges essentially come in packages that are the size of an electron (or proton since they have the same magnitude of charge). The charge on an electron is -1.6*10^-19

Therefore, any object should have a charge that is a multiple of the charge of an electron - It would not make sense to have a charge equivalent to 1.5 electrons since you can't exactly split the electron in half. So the charge of any integer number of electrons can be transferred to another object.

Charge = q(electron)*n(#electrons)

Since 5.4/1.6 = 3.375, we know that it can not be the right answer because the answer is not an integer.

If you divide every other option listed by the charge of an electron, you will get an integer number.

(16*10^-19 C)/(1.6*10^-19C) = 10

(-6.4*10^-19 C)/(1.6*10^-19C) = -4

(4.8*10^-19 C)/(1.6*10^-19C) = 3

(5.4*10^-19 C)/(1.6*10^-19C) = 3.375

(3.2*10^-19C)/(1.6*10^-19C) = 2

etc.

I hope this helps!
