Light always travels in a straight line

Physics

Licemer1 [7]3 years ago

 Light travels in straight lines. Once a light has been produced, it will keep moving in a straight line until it hits something else. Shadows are evidence of light traveling in straight lines. An object blocks light so that it can’t reach the surface where we see the shadow.

How does the size of a wind turbine affect its energy output?
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

Larger tubines generate more electricity.

Explanation:

Larger blades allow the turbine to capture more of the kinetic energy of the wind by moving more air through the rotors. However, larger blades require more space and higher wind speeds to operate. This distance is necessary to avoid interference between turbines, which decreases the power output.

a motorcar is moving with a velocity of 108 km / h and it takes 4s to stop after the brakes are applied calculate the force exer
k0ka [10]

Answer: - 7500N

Explanation:

Given the following :

Initial Velocity of car = 108km/hr

Time taken to stop after applying brakes = 4s

Mass of passengers in car = 1000kg

Force exerted by the brakes on the car =?

After 4s, then final Velocity (V) = 0

Initial Velocity (u) of the car = 108km/hr

108km/hr = (108 × 1000)m ÷ (3600)s = 30m/s

Force exerted = mass(m) × acceleration(a)

Acceleration of car = Change in Velocity with time

a = (v - u) / t

a = (0 - 30) / 4

a = - 30/ 4

a = - 7.5m/s^2

Therefore,

Force exerted = mass(m) × acceleration(a)

Force exerted = 1000kg × (-7.5)m/s^2

Force exerted = - 7500N

Consider the concepts of kinetic energy (KE) and gravitational potential energy (GPE) as you complete these questions. A ball is
Lena [83]

Answer:

When the ball is held motionless above the floor, the ball possesses only GPE  energy.If the ball is dropped, its GPE energy decreases as it falls.If the ball is dropped, its KE energy increases as it falls.

Explanation:

If the ball is held motionless, then its kinetic energy is equal to zero, since kinetic energy depends on the velocity. And the ball is held above the ground, which means it possesses gravitational potential energy.

If the ball is dropped, its height will decrease, therefore its gravitational potential energy will decrease. Along the way, the ball will be in free fall, and therefore its velocity will increase, hence its kinetic energy.
