Which one of the following statements concerning kinetic energy is true? a The kinetic energy of an object always has a positive

hodyreva [135]

a The kinetic energy of an object always has a positive value.

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of an object is the energy possessed by an object due to its motion, and it can be calculated as

$K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its speed

Let's now analyze each statement:

a The kinetic energy of an object always has a positive value. --> TRUE. In fact, the mass of the object is always positive, and the term $v^2$ is always positive as well, so the kinetic energy is always positive.

b The kinetic energy of an object is directly proportional to its speed. --> FALSE. Looking at the formula, we see that the kinetic energy is proportional to the square of the speed, $K\propto v^2$ .

c The kinetic energy of an object is expressed in watts. --> FALSE. Watts is the units for measuring power, while the kinetic energy is measured in Joules, the units for the energy.

d The kinetic energy of an object is a quantitative measure of its inertia. --> FALSE. The inertia of an object depends only on its mass, not on its speed.

e The kinetic energy of an object is always equal to the object’s potential energy. --> FALSE. The potential energy depends on the altitude from the ground, not from the speed, so the two energies can be different.

A tow truck exerts a force of 3000 n on a car, accelerating it at 2 meters per second per second. what is the mass of the car?

Artemon [7]

If the force is 3,000 N and the acceleration is 2 m/s/s. The mass of the car is 1,500 grams (or whatever unit of mass or weight is used in the answer- pounds, kilograms e.t.c.).

Which of the following effects is produced by the high surface tension of water? Which of the following effects is produced by t

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

A water strider can walk along the surface of earth due to the surface tension of water. 

Explanation:

Fluids have a tendency to shrink to minimum possible surface area and this is called surface tension. It usually occurs due to the greater force of cohesion between molecules of same substance when compared to adhesive force between molecules of different substances. Objects with greater densities can float along water surface due to the role played by surface tension. 

When insects walk along the water surface they are pulled down due to gravity. But the force of attraction between the legs of the insect and water molecules is minimal. Thus the surface tension would always tend to maintain the flatness of water overcoming the push by the legs of the strider.

When the insect’s weight pulls it down , the surface tension pushes it upwards overcoming this force of gravity. This is how water striders move along the surface of water.

Question 13 of 20

Dominik [7]

Answer:

B. It has a central nucleus composed of 29 protons and 35 neutrons,

surrounded by an electron cloud containing 29 electrons.

Explanation:

Protons and neutrons are the only subatomic particles with mass, and they are located in the nucleus. If this atom has an atomic number of 29 and is copper, it must have 29 protons (protons define which element is being observed). This means all remaining mass is from neutrons. 64-29 = 35.

Electrons have no mass and orbit the nucleus in the electron cloud. Since this copper atom is neutral (we are not told it has a charge), there must be an equal number of protons and electrons.
