Answer:

Power = 15[W]

Explanation:

This problem can be solved using the work definition.

Work is equal to the product of the force by the distance, for this problem we have:

F = force = 30 [N]

d = distance = 30 [m]

w = work = F * d = 30*30 = 900 [J], "units in joules"

The power is defined as the work done in an interval of time.

P = w / t

where:

t = time [s]

therefore

P = w / t

P = 900 / 6

P = 150 [W] "units in watts"

A 0.49-kg cord is stretched between two supports,7.3m apart. When one support is struck by a hammer, a transverse wave travels d
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

T= 5.18N

Explanation:

u = mass of chord / length of chord

u = 0.49/ 7.3

u = 0.067 kg/m

Velocity of sound waves (v) =length of chord / time taken for wave to travel

v = 7.3 / 0.83 = 8.795m/s

Tension is calculated below using the formula

T = v² * u

T = (8.795)² x 0.067

T= 5.18N

Describe the energy change in the particles of a substance during melting. A) The kinetic energy of the particles remains unchan
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

As ice melts into water, kinetic energy is being added to the particles. This causes them to be 'excited' and they break the bonds that hold them together as a solid, resulting in a change of state: solid -> liquid.

Explanation:

As we may know, the change in state of an object is due to the change in the average kinetic energy of the particles.

This average kinetic energy is proportional to the temperature of the particles.

This is because heat is a form of energy; by adding energy to ice - heat, you "excite" the water molecules, breaking the interactions in the lattice structure and forming weaker, looser hydrogen-bonding interactions.

This causes the ice to melt. This is demonstrated in the image below.

More generally, when you remove energy - the object cools down, the particles move a lot slower. So slow, that they individually attract other molecules more than before, and this results in a physical change that also changes the state.
