This is an example of kinetic to potential because the water is moving, pushing a turbine (Kinetic) and the turbine converts the energy to potential energy.

this is wrong the correct answer is potential to kinetic.

because think about it... the water has potential energy to fall when its at the top of a waterfall. and as it falls it losses potential and gains kinetic energy, and with that kinetic energy the water hits the turbine and kinetic energy is turned into electrical energy. THUS, MAKING POWER!!!

your welcome.

An athlete whose mass is 87.0 kg is performing weight-lifting exercises. Starting from the rest position, he lifts, with constan
expeople1 [14]

Answer: X = 52,314.12 N

Explanation: Let X be the force the feet of the athlete exerts on the floor.

According to newton's third law of motion the floor gives an upward reaction based on the weight of the athlete and the barbell which is known as the normal reaction ( based on the mass of the athlete and the barbell)

Mass of athlete = 87kg, mass of barbell = 600/ hence total normal reaction from the floor = 87* 61.22/ 9.8 *9.8 = 52,200N.

The athlete lifts the barbell from rest thus making it initial velocity u=0, distance covered = S = 0.65m and the time taken = 1.3s

The acceleration of the barbell is gotten by using the equation of constant acceleration motion

S= ut + 1/2at²

But u = 0

S = 1/2at²

0.65 = 1/2 *a (1.3)²

0.65 = 1.69 * a/2

0.65 * 2 = 1.69 * a

a = 0.65 * 2/ 1.69

a = 0.77m/s²

According to newton's second law of motion

Resultant force = mass * acceleration

And resultant force in this case is

X - 52,200 = (87 + 61.22) * 0.77

X - 52,200 = 148.22 * 0.77

X - 52, 200 = 114.132

X = 114.132 + 52,200

X = 52,314.12 N

a 2.35 water bucket is swung in a full cirlce of radius 0.824 m just fast enough so that the water doesn't fall out the top mean
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

2.84 m/s

Explanation:

At the top position of the circular trajectory, the normal reaction is zero:

N = 0

So it means that the only force that is providing the centripetal force is the gravitational force (the weight of the bucket). Therefore we have:

mg = m \frac{v^2}{r}

where

m is the mass of the water bucket

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

v is the speed of the bucket

r = 0.824 m is the radius of the circle

Solving for v,

v=\sqrt{gr}=\sqrt{(9.8 m/s^2)(0.824 m)}=2.84 m/s

A bulldozer and a Mini Cooper are involved in a head-on collision. Which one experiences a greater force
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

The mini Cooper will experience the greater force

Explanation:

Generally, a bulldozer has a greater mass compared to a Mini Cooper hence when both of these vehicles interact in an head on collision the Mini Cooper will experience a greater force because the bulldozer has a greater momentum

Basalt, formed from magma, contains iron-rich minerals. Why is this important?
Svetach [21]
Iron is a magnetic metal, and it is essential to the Earth's magnetic field!
Essentially it "records" (stores the information, maintains) the direction and orientation of the magnetic field.

Among others, the magnetic field protects the Earth from dangerous cosmic rays.

What two factors are a part of thermohaline circulation
Margarita [4]

Answer:

These deep-ocean currents are driven by differences in the water's density, which is controlled by temperature (thermo) and salinity (haline). This process is known as thermohaline circulation.
