What is the kinetic energy of the silver sphere at the moment it hits the ground? (Assume that energy is conserved during the fa

ll and that 100% of the sphere’s initial potential energy is converted to kinetic energy by the time impact occurs.)

4 0

Answer:

Kinetic Energy = 0

Explanation:

No matter if energy is totally conserved during the fall or when it hits the ground, the kinetic energy of the silver sphere will be zero because the velocity component in K.E = 1/2mv^{2} becomes zero, the over all energy becomes zero.

When a block of ice at zero degrees Celsius melts, the ice A) absorbs energy from its environment. B) releases energy to its env
Mariulka [41]

Answer: Option (E) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Latent heat is defined as the amount of heat required by per mole of a substance in order to change its state.  

And, latent heat of freezing (fusion) is defined as the energy required for the phase change between a liquid and a solid without any change in their temperature.

Therefore, at zero degrees Celsius energy absorbed by the ice will be consumed in breaking the bond between the water molecules held together in the solid state.

Thus, we can conclude that when a block of ice at zero degrees Celsius melts, the ice absorbs energy but does not change its temperature.

Scenario: You place a mug of hot tea on the table in a cool room.
Shkiper50 [21]
A. Radiation, conduction

B.
*Radiation will occur between the mug of hot tea and the room
*conduction will occur between the mug of hot tea and the table

C. The table as well as the surrounding air will become warmer.
This is because heat is given off from the mug of hot tea.

Two lightbulbs both operate on 120V . One has a power of 25W and the other 100W. (ii) Which lightbulb carries more current? Choo
Vikki [24]

The lightbulb that carries more current will be the 25W bulb.

<h3>How to explain the information?</h3>

It should be noted that an electric current simply means the stream of charged particles that move through an electrical conductor or space.

In this case, it should be noted that the power is the same for both bulbs. Therefore, the 25W bulb will have the higher resistance so that it will have lower power.

Therefore, the lightbulb that carries more current will be the 25W bulb.
