Where does energy come from that fuels our physical activity

8 0

The energy that fuels the processes inside our bodies and everything we do with our bodies comes from chemical energy stored in what we eat.

But that only raises another question: Where does the chemical energy in our food come from ?

If you follow it back far enough, eventually it ALL comes from the sun.

Energy comes from the Sun, plants and animals that we eat, to provide us with nutrients we need for energy.

An automobile rounds a curve of radius 50.0 m on a flat road.

bixtya [17]

Answer:

14m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Radius of the curve = 50m

Centripetal acceleration = 3.92m/s²

Unknown:

Speed needed to keep the car on the curve = ?

Solution:

The centripetal acceleration is the inwardly directly acceleration needed to keep a body along a curved path.

It is given as;

a = $\frac{v^{2} }{r}$

a is the centripetal acceleration

v is the speed

r is the radius

Now insert the parameters and find v;

v² = ar

v² = 3.92 x 50 = 196

v = √196 = 14m/s

A car is moving in uniform circular motion. If the cars speed were to double to keep the car moving with the same radius the acc

Stells [14]

Answer:

The centripetal acceleration would increase by a factor of 4

Correct choice: B.

Explanation:

Circular Motion

The circular motion is described when an object rotates about a fixed point called center. The distance from the object to the center is the radius. There are other magnitudes in the circular motion like the angular speed, tangent speed, and centripetal acceleration. The formulas are:

$v_t=w\ r$

$\displaystyle a_c=\frac{v_t^2}{r}$

If the speed is doubled and the radius is the same, then

$\displaystyle a_c=\frac{(2v_t)^2}{r}$

$\displaystyle a_c=4\frac{v_t^2}{r}$

The centripetal acceleration would increase by a factor of 4

Correct choice: B.

What is the top of a wave called?

ohaa [14]

Answer:

The highest part of the wave is called the crest.

Explanation:) hope this helps

The highest part of the wave is called the crest. The lowest part is called the trough. The wave height is the overall vertical change in height between the crest and the trough and distance between two successive crests (or troughs) is the length of the wave or wavelength.

A force F=0.12N is aplied on spring and spring elongates by 3cm . specific constant of spring

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

The spring constant is 4 N/m

Explanation:

When a spring is stretched/compressed by the application of a force, the relationship between the magnitude of the force applied and the elongation of the spring is given by Hooke's law:

$F=kx$
