Answer:
CAN YOU PLEASE GIVE ME POINTS???
Explanation:
The motor does 20 J of work on the block, it means that the total mechanical energy of the block has increased by 20 J. But the increase in total mechanical energy is equal to the sum of the increases in potential energy and kinetic energy:
So, if the gravitational potential energy has increased by 15 J, the kinetic energy has increased by
Answer: D
Explanation:
Let us examine the given actions to see which ones generate heat and sound energy from mechanical energy.
A) Stretching a string.
The mechanical stretching creates tension in the string, which is released when the tension is removed. The generation of thermal or sound energy is minimal or negligible.
B) Squeezing a sponge ball
The sponge ball experiences compressive loading. This generates minimal or no heat and sound energy.
C) Throwing a ball upwards in the air
Air friction generates minimal or no heat at low velocities. At low velocities the pressure waves are too small to generate sound.
D) Striking a hammer on a nail.
A tremendous amount of force is applied over a small area to generate very high stresses that are in the plastic zone. A high amount of thermal energy is generated and the localized disturbance of the air generates audible sound.
This is the correct situation.
The inverse hyperbolic cosecant of anything is a negative number.
In particular, csch⁻¹ [ (-1)/(2√30) ] = csch⁻¹ (≈ -0.0913) = ≈ -3.089
Whatever it is, negative numbers don't have logarithms.
