inal speed v < v0 (air resistance is not negligible). What was the sign of the work done by friction during the flight?
(A) W fric > 0
(B) Wfric=0

Answer:

(A) W fric > 0

Explanation:

According to the law of energy conservation, mechanical energy stays always constant. So if the ball come back to the same position (same potential energy) but with reduced speed (kinetic energy), then the kinetic energy has been affected by friction work created by air resistance. This work is non 0 and larger than 0. So the total of this friction work and kinetic energy after the fall = kinetic energy before the fall.

I need to know the independent variable, dependent variable, control, and the hypothesis.
Verizon [17]
IV - The miracle grow (since this does not change based on the dv)
DV- The height of the plant (since it depends on how much/ wether miracle grow was added.)
Control- The control would be the plant without any miracle grow
Hypothesis- If miracle grow is added to the plant, then it will grow taller because it will give the plants the nutrients it needs.

Define capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor and state one application of it in electric circuit?​
Arisa [49]

Answer:

The capacitance of a parallel plate capacitor is the quantity of charge the capacitor can hold.

This capacitance is proportional to the area of the any of the two plates (if the area of the plates are the same), or the smaller of the two plates (if the plates have different areas) and inversely proportional to the square of the distance of separation (or thickness of the dielectric material) between the plates. It is mathematically expressed as;

C = Aε₀ / d

Where;

C = capacitance

A = Area of one of the plates.

d = distance between the plates

Some of the applications of capacitance (or simply a capacitor) in an electric circuit are;

i. For storage of electrostatic energy.

ii. For filtering and tuning of circuits.

Radioactivity is a part of our earth - it has existed all along. Naturally occurring radioactive materials are present in its crust, the floors and walls of our homes, schools, or offices and in the food we eat and drink. There are radioactive gases in the air we breathe. Our own bodies - muscles, bones, and tissue - contain naturally occurring radioactive elements.
