The chemical energy in Jay's body, to kinetic energy in the car

Answer:

Elastic potential energy into kinetic energy

Explanation:

Initially, all the energy is stored in the spring, which is compressed. This energy is called elastic potential energy, and it is equal to

U=\frac{1}{2}kx^2

where k is the spring constant and x is the compression of the spring. When the key is turned, the spring is released, and all this energy is converted into kinetic energy, which is the energy due to the motion of the car. The equation that gives this energy is

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

where m is the mass of the car and v is the speed of the car.

A spherical Christmas tree ornament is 8.00 cm in diameter. What is the magnification of an object placed 12.0 cm away from the
LiRa [457]

The magnification of the ornament is 0.25

To calculate the magnification of the ornament, first, we need to find the image distance.

Formula:

  • 1/f = u⁻¹+v⁻¹.................... Equation 1

Where:

  • f = Focal length of the ornament
  • u = image distance
  • v = object distance.

make u the subject of the equation

  • u = fv/(f+v)................ Equation 2

From the question,

Given:

  • f = 8/2 = 4 cm
  • v = 12 cm

Substitute these values into equation 2

  • u = (12×4)/(12+4)
  • u = 48/16
  • u = 3 cm.

Finally, to get the magnification of the ornament, we use the formula below.

  • M = u/v.................. Equation 3

Where

  • M = magnification of the ornament.

Substitute these values above into equation 3

  • M = 3/12
  • M = 0.25.

Hence, The magnification of the ornament is 0.25

Final velocity will be greater than initial velocity of an object is
Natali [406]

Answer:

accelerating

Explanation:

If we consider(v > u) Acceleration:

final velocity(v)= 14m/s

initial velocity(u)=10m/s

time taken(t)= 2 seconds

a= \frac{(v-u)}{t} =\frac{(14-10)}{2}=2m/s²

If we consider (v<u) Deceleration:

final velocity(v)= 3m/s

initial velocity(u)=9m/s

time taken(t)=2 seconds

a= \frac{(v-u)}{t}=\frac{(3-9)}{2}= -3m/s²
