Answer:

Convection is the transfer of thermal energy from one place to another by the movement of gas or liquid particles. How does this happen? As a gas or liquid is heated, the substance expands. This is because the particles in liquids and gases gain kinetic energy when they are heated and start to move faster.

A 70.0 kg ice hockey goalie, originally at rest, has a 0.110 kg hockey puck slapped at him at a velocity of 31.5 m/s. Suppose th

NISA [10]

Answer

given,

mass of the goalie(m₁) = 70 kg

mass of the puck (m₂)= 0.11 kg

velocity of the puck = 31.5 m/s

elastic collision

$v_1=\dfrac{m_2-m_1}{m_1+m_2}v_1+\dfrac{2m_2}{m_1+m_2}v_2$

$v_{pf}=\dfrac{0.11-70}{0.11+70}31.5+\dfrac{2m_2}{m_1+m_2}\times (0)$

$v_{pf}=-31.4\ m/s$

$v'_2 = \dfrac{2m_1v_1}{m_1+m_2}-\dfrac{(m_2-m_1)v_2}{m_2+m_1}$

$v_{gf} = \dfrac{2\times 0.11\times 31.5}{0.11+70}-\dfrac{(0.11-70)\times 0}{m_1+m_2}$

$v_{gf} = \dfrac{2\times 0.11\times 31.5}{0.11+70}$

$v_{gf} = 0.0988\ m/s$

When an average force F is exerted over a certain distance on a shopping cart of mass m, its kinetic energy increases by 12mv2.

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

A) $d=\dfrac{1}{2F}mv^2$

B) $\Delta KE'=2\times \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

Explanation:

Given that

Force = F

Increase in Kinetic energy = $\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

$\Delta KE=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

we know that

Work done by all the forces =change in the kinetic energy

Lets distance = d

We know work done by force F

W= F .d

F.d=ΔKE

$F.d=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

$d=\dfrac{1}{2F}mv^2$

If the force become twice

F' = 2 F

F'.d=ΔKE'

2 F .d = ΔKE' ( F.d =Δ KE)

2ΔKE = ΔKE'

$\Delta KE'=2\times \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

Therefore the final kinetic energy will become the twice if the force become twice.

Explain why, in terms of forces, there is a risk of head injury when diving from this height. Suggest why the high divers would

podryga [215]

Answer:

Due to lower risk of injury or damage.

Explanation:

The high divers would choose to enter the water from the feet first because there is low risk of injury. The brain is the most important part of the body which very sensitive to any small injury. Small injury to brain leads to big problems in life. High divers can reach speeds of nearly 60 mph and enters about 28m into the water in about three seconds which can damage the head region if comes in contact with the ground so this is the reason the high divers avoid of entering in the water through their heads and choose entering through their feet.
