What device transforms electrical energy into mechanical energy?

A 1.0-kg ball has a velocity of 12 m/s downward just before it strikes the ground and bounces up with a velocity of 12 m/s upwar

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

The change in momentum of the ball is 24 kg-m/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the ball, m = 1 kg

Initial velocity of the ball, u = -12 m/s (in downwards)

Final velocity of the ball, v = +12 m/s (in upward)

We need to find the change in momentum of the ball.

Initial momentum of the ball, $p_i=mu=1\ kg\times (-12\ m/s)=-12\ kg-m/s$

Final momentum of the ball, $p_f=mv=1\ kg\times (12\ m/s)=12\ kg-m/s$

Change in momentum of the ball, $\Delta p=p_f-p_i$

$\Delta p=12-(-12)=24\ kg-m/s$

So, the change in momentum of the ball is 24 kg-m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

NASA is designing a mission to explore Titan, the largest moon of Saturn. Titan has numerous hydrocarbon lakes containing a mix

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

Total pressure in atmosphere IS 4.36 atm

Explanation:

Given Data:

Depth of lake is 400 mtr

surface tension is 147 kilopascals

surface temperature 94 kelvin

Gravity = 1.35 m/s^2

specific gravity of methane(liquid) = 0.415

specific gravity of ethane(liquid) = 0.546

density of methane can be obtained as

$\rho_{methane} = 0.415\times 1000 = 415 kg/m^3$

Density of ethane can be obtained as

$\rho_{ethane} = 0.546\times 1000 = 546 kg/m^3$

Total pressure in atmosphere can be obtained as

$P = surface\ tension + \rho_{max}gh$

$= 147 +546\times 1.35\times 400\times 10^{-3}$

= 441.84 kPa

$= 441.84\times 0.009869 atm\kPa$

= 4.36 atm

The horizontal speed of the object 1.0 seconds later is 1) 5.0 m/s.

Explanation:

The motion of an object thrown horizontally off a cliff is a projectile motion, which follows a parabolic path that consists of two independent motions:

- A uniform motion (constant velocity) along the horizontal direction

- An accelerated motion with constant acceleration (acceleration of gravity) in the vertical direction

This means that the horizontal speed of an object in projectile motion does not change, and remains constant during the whole motion.

Since in this case the object has been launched with a horizontal speed of

v = 5.0 m/s

this means that this speed will remain constant during the motion, so its horizontal speed 1.0 s later is also 5.0 m/s.

What is the relationship between pho Thanh energy and the color of light

AysviL [449]

Answer:

Red photons have the least amount of energy

Explanation:

The relationship between the photon energy and the color of light is given by:

$E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}$

where

E is the energy

h is the Planck constant

c is the speed of light

$\lambda$ is the wavelength (which determines the color of light)

As we see from the equation, energy and wavelength are inversely proportional: this means that the longer the wavelength, the lower the energy, and viceversa.

Among the colors in the visible light spectrum, red is the color with longest wavelength (620-750 nm) and violet is the color with shortest wavelength (380-450 nm). This means that red photons have the least amount of energy, while violet photons have the greatest amount of energy.

So the correct choice is

Red photons have the least amount of energy
