Answer:

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law, acceleration is directly proportional to the net force. As the acceleration increases (when mass is constant), the net force increases. This is represented in the following formula.

$f = ma$

$a = \frac{f}{m}$

a = acceleration

f = force

m = mass

Which has more kinetic energy, a 4.0 kg bowling ball moving at 1.0 m/s or a 1.0 kg

jolli1 [7]

Answer:

The kinetic energy of bocce ball is more.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a bowling ball, m₁ = 4 kg

Speed of the bowling ball, v₁ = 1 m/s

Mass of bocce ball, m₂ = 1 kg

Speed of bocce ball, v₂ = 4 m/s

We need to say which has more kinetic energy.

The kinetic energy of an object is given by :

$E=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

Kinetic energy of the bowling ball,

$E_1=\dfrac{1}{2}m_1v_1^2\\\\E_1=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 4\times (1)^2\\\\E_1=2\ J$

The kinetic energy of the bocce ball,

$E_2=\dfrac{1}{2}m_2v_2^2\\\\E_2=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1\times (4)^2\\\\E_2=8\ J$

So, the kinetic energy of bocce ball is more than that of bowling ball.

Are light waves longitudinal or transverse

Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

Transverse

Explanation:

There are two types of waves, according to the direction of their oscillation:

- Transverse waves: in a transverse wave, the direction of the oscillation is perpendicular to the direction of motion of the wave. Examples of transverse waves are electromagnetic waves

- Longitudinal waves: in a longitudinal wave, the direction of the oscillation is parallel to the direction of motion of the wave. Examples of longitudinal waves are sound waves.

Light waves corresponds to the visible part of the electromagnetic spectrum, which includes all the different types of electromagnetic waves (which consist of oscillations of electric and magnetic fields that are perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave): therefore, they are transverse waves.

What is the speed of a car that travels 48 km in 2 hours?

ankoles [38]

Speed=distance/time

distance =48km
time=2 hours

speed=48/2
=24km/h

speed=24km/h

FORMULAS

speed = distance/time
time = distance/speed
distance = speed×time
