A system is contained by its boundary; therefore, the size of a system is limited by its boundary.

All systems differ in size from subatomic to the extent of the universe. All systems have limits and many systems have matter and power that runs within them. A boundary is an ended surface enclosing a system through which energy and mass may enroll or omit the system.

The answer that is being described above is the ASTEROIDS. The one that we see floating between Mars and Jupiter is what we call the Asteroid Belt. The asteroid belt comprises of different rocky bodies and they also orbit within the solar system. Hope this helps.

Seven seconds after a brilliant flash of lightning, thunder shakes the house. How far was the lightning strike from the house? S

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

About two kilometers away

$\rm distance=2.401\ km$

Explanation:

Given:

The time gap between the light and sound to travel to the house, $t=7\ s$

Since the clouds are formed in the troposphere region of the atmosphere which extends from 8 kilometers to 12 kilometers above the earth-surface and the velocity of light is 300000 kilometers per second so it is visible almost instantly, hence we neglect the time taken by the light to travel to the house from the clouds.

∴Distance between the lightning-strike and the house:

$\rm distance=v\times t$

we have the speed of sound as: $v=343\ m.s^{-1}$

So,

$\rm distance=343\times 7$

$\rm distance=2401\ m$

$\rm distance=2.401\ km$

You drop a ball from a height of 2.0 m, and it bounces back to a height of 1.5 m. (a) what fraction of its initial energy is los

Scilla [17]

a) At a position of 2.0m, the Initial energy is all made up of the potential energy=m*g*hi
and meanwhile at 1.5 all its energy is also potential energy=m*g*hf

The percentage of energy remaining is E=m*g*hi/m*g*hf x 100

and since mass and gravity are constant so it leaves us with just E=hi/hf
which 1.5/2.0 x100= 75% so we see that we lost 25% of the energy or 0.25 in fraction

b) Here use the equation vf^2=vi^2+2gd

where g is gravity, vf is the final velocity and vi is the initial velocity while d is the distance travelled

so in here we are looking for the vi so let us isolate that variable
we know that at maximum height or peak, the velocity is 0 so vf is 0

therefore,

vi =sqrt(-2gd) 
vi =sqrt(-2x-9.81x1.5) 
vi =5.4 m/s

c) The energy was converted to heat due to friction with the air and the ground.

Answer:

emf will also be 10 times less as compared to when it has fallen $40 \mathrm{m}$

Explanation:

We know, from faraday's law-

$e m f=-N \frac{\Delta \Phi}{\Delta T}$

and $\Phi=B . A$

So, as the height increases the velocity with which it will cross the ring will also increase. $(v=\sqrt{2 g h})$

Given

$\mathrm{V} 1(\text { Speed at } 40 \mathrm{m})=2 \mathrm{x} \mathrm{V} 2(\text { speed at } 10 \mathrm{m})$

$\sqrt{2 g h_{2}}=2 \times \sqrt{2 g h_{1}}=28.28 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$

Now, from $40 \mathrm{cm}$

$V_{3}=\sqrt{2 g h_{3}}=\sqrt{2 \times 10 \times 0.4}=2.82 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$

From equation a and b we see that velocity when dropped from $40 \mathrm{m}$ is 10 times greater when height is 40 $\mathrm{cm}$ so, emf will also be 10 times less as compared to when it has fallen $40 \mathrm{m}$
