Answer: 3.75 joules
Explanation:
Given that:
Mass of acorn = 0.300 kilograms
velocity = 5.oo m/s
Kinetic energy = ?
Since, kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a moving object, its value depends on the mass M and velocity V of the acorn.
Thus, Kinetic energy = 1/2 x mv^2
= 1/2 x 0.300kg x (5.00m/s)^2
= 0.5 x 0.3kg x (5.00m/s)^2
= 0.15 x (5.00m/s)^2
= 3.75 joules
Thus, the kinetic energy of the falling acorn is 3.75 joules
i sorry i thought of geocentric as something else it appears that the earth was the center
Answer: The correct statements are:
- The atoms are very attracted to one another.
- The atoms are held tightly together.
Explanation:
Solid state: In this state, the molecules are closely packed and cannot move freely from one place to another that means no space between them and the intermolecular force of attraction between the molecules are strong.
In solid substance, the particles are very close to each other due to this the intermolecular forces of attraction are strongest.
The key point about solid are:
- The atoms are very attracted to one another.
- The atoms are not moving freely.
- It will not spread out evenly to fill any container.
- The atoms are held tightly together.
- The forces of attraction are strong to bring molecules together.
- The atoms are close and in fixed positions.
First law is Conservation of Energy
Second is that entropy of an isolated system will always increase with time.
Entropy is the change of disorder through time. The best statement which relates to the 2nd law is C. Thermal energy flows from areas of higher to lower temperature
Answer : The correct option is, (D) 273 Kelvin, 0 degrees Celsius, 32 degrees Fahrenheit
Explanation :
Conversion of degree Celsius to Kelvin :

Conversion of degree Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit :

By using these two conversion factors, we get the three temperature readings all mean the same thing.
For option A :


For option B :


For option C :


For option D :


From the given options, only option (D) is correct.
Hence, the correct option is, (D) 273 Kelvin, 0 degrees Celsius, 32 degrees Fahrenheit
