Physics
1 answer:
lilavasa [31]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Explanation:

As the potential energy of the freely falling object decreases, its kinetic energy increases on account of an increase in its velocity. ... Thus, the law of conservation of energy is not violated.

James Joule (after whom the unit of energy is named) claimed that the water at the bottom of Niagara Falls should be warmer than
Molodets [167]

Answer:

0.12 K

Explanation:

height, h = 51 m

let the mass of water is m.

Specific heat of water, c = 4190 J/kg K

According to the transformation of energy

Potential energy of water = thermal energy of water

m x g x h = m x c x ΔT

Where, ΔT is the rise in temperature

g x h =  c x ΔT

9.8 x 51 = 4190 x ΔT

ΔT = 0.12 K

Thus, the rise in temperature is 0.12 K.

Whenever you push an object across a frictional surface, it starts out taking a lot of force to push to get the object moving. H
son4ous [18]

Answer:

The answer is A

Explanation:

Here's an example. A child is in school taking a test. They have made a mistake on a question, and want to erase it. The eraser is made out of a type of rubber, the rubber has friction, which means the eraser has something that's going to resist movement. Now the child has exerted enough force to get it moving, and it's moving, it won't stop unless the child stops exerting force to keep it moving. Both Newton's 1st and 3rd law explain the action of moving something on a surface with friction.
