The SI unit for kinetic energy is joules. Joules is measured in mass which is measured in kilograms.

The easiest way to build a unit for energy is to remember that
'work' is energy, and  
                                       Work = (force) x (distance).

So energy is                   (unit of force) x (unit of distance)

                   [Energy]  =       (Newton)            (meter) .

'Newton' itself is a combination of base units, so
energy is really
                             (kilogram-meter/sec²)      (meter)

                       =           kilogram-meter² / sec² .

That unit is so complicated that it's been given a special,
shorter name:
                                       Joule .

It doesn't matter what kind of energy you're talking about.
Kinetic, potential, nuclear, electromagnetic, food, chemical,
muscle, wind, solar, steam ... they all boil down to Joules.

And if you generate, use, transfer, or consume 1 Joule of
energy every second, then we say that the 'power' is '1 watt'.

Select the correct answer. What do scientists use to determine the temperature of a star? A. Thermometer B. Distance from Earth
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

Color

Explanation:

Thus, for stars, considering them as “black bodies”, we can get an approximate figure for their temperature by measuring their dominant frequency (color). Technically scientists measure the brightness of the blue light and that of red light from the star, and from this they can calculate the temperature of the star.

<span>40)   </span>An elevator weighing 2.00 c 10^5 N is supported by a steel cable…
Fw =  mass * gravitational acceleration
2*10^5 = mass * 9.8
mass of the elevator = 20.4*10^3 kg

Fnet = Tension – Fw
mass * acceleration = Tension – 2*10^5
20.4*10^3 * 3 = Tension – 2*10^5
61200 = Tension – 2*10^5
Tension = (61200) + (2*10^5)
Tension = 2.61 * 10^5 newton

<span>41)   </span>A bullet with a mass of 6.00 g is fired through a 1.25 kg block of wood on a frictionless surface.
0.006(896) + 0 = 0.006(435) + 1.25(V)
5.376 + 0 = 2.61 + 1.25(V)
5.376 = 2.61 + 1.25(V)
2.766 = 1.25(V)
V = 2.21 m/s

<span>42)   </span>Find the final equilibrium temperature when 10.0 g of milk at 10.0C is added to 1.60 x 10^2 g of coffee with a temperature of 90.0C.
Heat lost = heat gained
X = equilibrium temperature
Heat lost = 160(90-x)
Heat gained = 10(x-10)
14400 – 160x = 10x -100
170x = 14500
X = 14500/170
X = 85.25 degrees

How does a valve cause a pressure drop in terms of the individual molecules in the liquid?
andre [41]
Opening the valve allows more of the pressurized material out. If the area is decreased, less of the pressurized material is released, and its force ends up more spread out, reducing the pressure. Opening the valve will increase volume of transfer of your liquid.
