Answer:
a) 10.51 J
b) 3.48 m/s
Explanation:
Given data :
mass of train ( M ) = 2.2 kg
Given initial velocity ( u ) = 1.6 m/s
<u>a) calculating work done by the force over the journey of the train</u>
F = mx + b ------ ( 1 )
m = slope = ( Δ f / Δ x ) = 2.8 / -7.5 = - 0.373 N/m
x = distance travelled on the x axis by the train = 7.5 m
F = force experienced by the train = 2.8 N
x = 0
∴ b = 2.8
hence equation 1 can be written as
F = ( -0.373) x + 2.8 ----- ( 2 )
hence to determine the work done by the force
W = 
Note: the limits are actually 7.5 and 0
∴ W ( work done ) = -10.49 + 21 = 10.51 J
<u>b) calculate the speed of the train at the end of its journey</u>
we will apply the work energy theorem
W = 1/2 m*v^2 - 1/2 m*u^2
∴ V^2 = 2 / M ( W + 1/2 M*u^2 ) ( input values into equation )
V^2 = 12.11
hence V = 3.48 m/s
The weight should be shared between the two string equally. Therefore, tension in each string, T is;
T = 120 N/2 = 60 N
It is called a homologous chromosome meaning it carries the same gene
Answer:
The correct answer is the third option: The kinetic energy of the water molecules decreases.
Explanation:
Temperature is, in depth, a statistical value; kind of an average of the particles movement in any physical system (such as a glass filled with water). Kinetic energy, for sure, is the energy resulting from movement (technically depending on mass and velocity of a system; in other words, the faster something moves, the greater its kinetic energy.
Since temperature is related to the total average random movement in a system, and so is the kinetic energy (related to movement through velocity), as the thermometer measures <u>less temperature</u>, that would mean that the particles (in this case: water particles) are <u>moving slowly</u>, so that: the slower something moves, the lower its kinetic energy.
<u>In summary:</u> temperature tells about how fast are moving and colliding the particles within a system, and since it is <em>directly proportional</em> to the amount of movement, it can be related (also <em>directly proportional</em>) to the kinectic energy.
