k = 1/2mv^2

18 = 1/2*1*v^2

v = 6 m/s

A pendulum has 576 J of potential energy at the highest point of its swing. How much kinetic energy will it have at the bottom o
Natalka [10]
Ideally, 576 J  because energy is conserved.
In the real world, a tiny tiny tiny tiny bit less than 576 J ,
because we live in a world with friction and air resistance.

pantera1 [17]

answer

no

Explanation:

I do not think that I would because even though its a conductor in the insulator I think it would insulate it before it will work (not sure if that makes sense)

A satellite orbits the earth a distance of 1.50 × 107 m above the planet's surface and takes 8.65 hours for each revolution abou
kupik [55]

Answer:

The acceleration of the satellite is 0.87 m/s^{2}

Explanation:

The acceleration in a circular motion is defined as:

a = \frac{v^{2}}{r}  (1)

Where a is the centripetal acceleration, v the velocity and r is the radius.

The equation of the orbital velocity is defined as

v = \frac{2 \pi r}{T} (2)

Where r is the radius and T is the period

For this particular case, the radius will be the sum of the high of the satellite (1.50x10^{7} m) and the Earth radius (6.38x10^{6} m) :

r = 1.50x10^{7} m+6.38x10^{6}m

r = 21.38x10^{6}m

Then, equation 2 can be used:

T = 8.65 hrs \cdot \frac{3600 s}{1hrs} ⇒ 31140 s

v = \frac{2 \pi (21.38x10^{6}m)}{31140s}

v = 4313 m/s

Finally equation 1 can be used:

a = \frac{(4313m/s)^{2}}{21.38x10^{6}m}    

a = 0.87 m/s^{2}

Hence, the acceleration of the satellite is 0.87 m/s^{2}

What are some drawbacks of electron microscopes? 3. If an object being viewed under the phase-contrast microscope has the same r
gayaneshka [121]

1. <u>Some drawbacks of electron microscopes:</u>

  • Price, size, repair, researcher learning and image artifacts arising from specimen preparation are the major drawbacks.
  • This form of magnification is a massive, burdensome, costly piece of equipment, highly sensitive to vibration and exterior magnetic field.
  • It must be held in an environment that is big enough to contain the microscope, as well as to secure and prevent any unwanted effect on the electrons.
  • Upkeep includes ensuring balanced voltage supplies, electromagnetic coil / lens currents and cool water circulation so that the specimens are not destroyed or damaged by the heat released during the electrons energization process.

2. If an object being viewed under the phase-contrast microscope has the same refractive index as the background material than "it would be difficult to see because the phase contrast microscope amplifies differences in the refractive index".

<u>Explanation:</u>

In order to improve the comparison of transparent and colorless specimens with the light microscopy pictures, thus phase contrast is used. This allows the visualization of cells and cell elements which would be hard to see using a standard light magnification. The phase comparison does not involve the destruction, fixation or staining of cells.

Due to diffraction and scattering phenomena which exist at the edges of these objects, large, extended specimens are also quickly visualized with phase contrast optical. As light transits through one medium to another, the velocity is changed in proportion to the variations in the refractive index between the two media. Therefore, the wave is either increased or decreased in velocity whenever a coherent light wave produced by the oriented microscope filament progresses via a phase specimen with a particular thickness and refractive index.
