<span>The answer is B. It can be converted from high to low voltage and vice versa using transformers. That is why high voltages (tens or hundreds of kilovolts) is used to efficiently transfer electricity for large distances and then converted to 110-240V.

The answer can also be derived by elimination. [A] is not right because battery provides only Direct Current (DC). [C] is not right because high voltages are used for AC (from 110V to hundreds of kilovolts). [D] is not right because as the name Alternating Current suggests, the current is alternating in its direction. [E] is not right because DC was the first type of current invented.</span>

Darwin is sitting on top of a 10 m tree and decided to drop a 3 kg baseball to the ground. What is the velocity when the PE turn
Nimfa-mama [501]

The AMOUNT of energy the ball has doesn't change. It's 294 joules in Darwin's hand, and it's still 294 joules when the ball hits the ground.  It's all PE before he let's it go, and it steadily changes from PE to KE all the way down.

It BEGINS to turn into KE immediately, when Darwin lets go of the ball, and it starts to fall.

More and more PE turns into KE as the ball falls, all the way down.

When the ball hits the ground, it has no more PE left. All of its mechanical energy is then KE.

You are on a sled at the top of a hemispherical, snowy hill of radius 13 m. You begin to slide down the hill. How fast are you m
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

Explanation:

There will be loss of potential energy due to loss of height and gain of kinetic energy .

loss of height = R - R cos 14 ,    R is radius of hemisphere .

R ( 1 - cos 12 )

= 13 ( 1 - .978 )

h = .286 m

loss of potential energy

= mgh

= m x 9.8 x .286

= 2.8 m

gain of kinetic energy

1/2 m v ² = mgh

v² = 2 g h

v²  = 2 x 9.8 x 2.8

v = 7.40 m /s

What is the force holding you down?
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

The force holding you down is gravity.

Explanation:

Gravity is a force between two objects with mass. It pulls things together. You have mass, and the Earth has mass, so gravity tries to pull you and the Earth together. The gravitational force is much bigger for more massive objects.

What is the moment of inertia of an object that rolls without slipping down a 2.00-m-high incline starting from rest, and has a
Paha777 [63]
E = mgh +  \frac{1}2} m v^{2} + \frac{1}{2} I \omega^{2} = mgh +  \frac{1}2} m  r ^{2}   \omega ^{2}  + \frac{1}{2} I \omega^{2}

for a solid cylinder:  I =  \frac{1}{2} m r^{2}
for a hollow cylinder: I = mr^{2}

I will look at the case of a hollow cylinder:

E = mgh + I \omega ^{2} = constant \\ \\ I =  \frac{mgh}{  \omega^{2} }

That is as far as i get.

A 4.0-cm tall light bulb is placed at distance of 8.3 cm from a concave mirror having a focal length of 15.2 cm. Determine the i
scoundrel [369]

Answer: the image distance is -18, 28 cm this means behind of the concave mirror. The image size is 2.2 higher that the original  so it has 8.8 cm with the same orientation as original  and it is a virtual imagen.

Explanation: In order to sove the imagen formation for a concave mirror we have to use the following equation:

1/p+1/q=1/f  where p and q represents the distance to the mirror  for the object and imagen, respectively. f is the focal length for the concave mirror.

replacing the values we obtain:

1/8.3+1/q=1/15.2

so 1/q=(1/15.2)-(1/8.3)=-54.7*10^-3

then q=-18.28 cm

The magnification is given by M=-q/p=-(-18,28)/8.3= 2.2

We also add a picture to see the imagen formation for this case.
