What is the answer?
Andrews [41]

Answer:

6.26 m/s

Explanation:

Pretty slow.... the PE (Potential Energy) at 2m will be converted to KE (Kinetic Energy) at the bottom of the track (neglecting friction)

PE    =   KE

mgh = 1/2 mv^2     divide both sides of the equation by 'm'

gh    = 1/2 v^2             multiply both sides by 2

2 gh = v^2               take sqrt of both sides

v = sqrt ( 2gh) = sqrt ( 2*9.81*2) = 6.26 m/s

A bus travels a distance of 120 km with a speed of 40km per hour and returns with a speed of 30km per hour calculate the average
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

35 km/hr

Explanation:

Average speed = (total of the speed)/(the sets of speeds given)

Direction does not matter in this instance since speed is only magnitude,

Average speed = (30 + 40)/2

Average speed = 70 ÷ 2

= 35 km/hr

Which of the following statements about energy is true? I. Kinetic energy cannot be transformed into another type of energy. II.
Mashcka [7]

Answer: B. II and III only

Explanation:

Let’s begin by explianing what energy is: the ability of matter to produce work in the form of movement, light, heat, among others. In this sense, there are several types of energy, but we will talk especifically in this case about <u>kinetic energy</u> and <u>potential energy</u>.

<u>Kinetic energy </u>is the energy an object or body has due to its movement and depends on the mass and velocity of the object or body.

To understande it better: If an object is at rest, its velocity is null and it does not have kinetic energy, however, if the object is moving, then it has kinetic energy.

On the other hand, <u>Potential energy</u> is known as <em>“stored energy”</em> that has the potential to be converted into energy of motion (kinetic energy) or another type of energy (thermal energy, for example). In addition, this energy is related to the work done when a certain force moves an object or body from its natural resting state along a distance to a new position.

So, according to this, Kinetic energy can be transformed into potential energy and Potential energy can be transformed into kinetic energy or any other type of energy. Hence, options II and III are correct.

This graph indicates that the kinetic energy of an object is increasing. What is the most reasonable explanation for this observ
soldi70 [24.7K]

B) The object's velocity doubled.

Explanation:

The graph is missing: find it in attachment.

The kinetic energy of an object is the energy possessed by the object due to its motion. It is calculated as

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

m is the mass of the object

v is the velocity of the object

We notice that:

  • The  kinetic energy is directly proportional to the mass
  • The kinetic energy is proportional to the square of the velocity

In the graph, one of the two quantities (either mass or speed) is represented on the x-axis, while the quantity on the y-axis is the kinetic energy.

First of all, we notice that the relationship is not linear: this means that the quantity on the x-axis cannot be the mass, so it must be the velocity.

Moreover, we notice that when the quantity on the x-axis increases from 1 to 2 (so, it doubles), the kinetic energy increases by a factor of 4. This means that the object's velocity has doubled, therefore

B) The object's velocity doubled.
