A student, starting from rest, slides down a water slide. On the way down, a kinetic frictional force (a nonconservative force)

acts on her. The student has a mass of 73 kg, and the height of the water slide is 11.8 m. If the kinetic frictional force does -5.5 × 103 J of work, how fast is the student going at the bottom of the slide?

Answer:

<em>The velocity with which the student goes down the bottom of glide is 12.48m/s.</em>

Explanation:

The Non conservative force is defined as a force which do not store energy or get he energy dissipate the energy from the system as the system progress with the motion.

Given are

   <em>  mass of the student 73 kg</em>

<em>      height of water glide 11.8 m</em>

<em>      work done as -5.5*10³ J</em>

Have to find speed at which the student goes down the glide.

According to<em> Law of Conservation of energy</em>,

          K.E =P.E+Work Done

 mv²/2=mgh +W

Rearranging the above eqn for v

v = √2(gh+W/m)

Substituting values,

V =  12.48 m/s.

<em>The velocity with which the student goes down the bottom of glide is 12.48m/s.</em>

List two fossil fuels. describe in general how fossil fuels were formed.
vazorg [7]

Fossil Fuels:

Coal and Oil

How they are formed:

Coal is formed from big plants, from a long time ago. When the big plants died, they formed layers at the bottom of swamps and the dirt began to pile up and it formed Coal.

Oil is a fossil fuel that has been formed from a large amount tiny plants and animals such as algae and zooplankton.

We divide the electromagnetic spectrum into six major categories of light, listed below. Rank these forms of light from left to
algol13

Answer:

gamma rays  < X-ray  < ultraviolet ray < visible light < infrared  < radio wave

Explanation:

given light form,

A) radio waves,B) infrared,C) visible light,D) ultraviolet,E) X-rays,F) gamma rays

we know,

wavelength of radio wave = 10000 Km

wavelength of infrared = 700 nanometers (nm) to 1 millimeter (mm)

wavelength of visible light = 380 to 740 nm

wavelength of ultraviolet ray = 10 nm to 400 nm

wavelength of X-ray =  0.01 to 10 nm

wavelength of gamma rays = 100 picometer

so, the order of rays.

gamma rays  < X-ray  < ultraviolet ray < visible light < infrared  < radio wave

Write a hypothesis about the use of an object’s physical characteristics to determine its density. Use the format "if . . . then
mash [69]
For this case you must first know the definition of density.
 D = m / v
 where,
 m: mass
 v: volume.
 You can then write the following hypothesis:
 IF you know two physical characteristics of an object then you can determine the density. First weigh the object, THEN measure its volume BECAUSE the density is the quotient between the mass and the volume of an object.
