Yes. Kinetic energy is a form of mechanical energy and friction will turn that kinetic energy into heat.

A student sits at rest on a piano stool that can rotate without friction. The moment of inertia of the student-stool system is 4
irina [24]

Here We can use principle of angular momentum conservation

Here as we know boy + projected mass system has no external torque

Since there is no torque so we can say the angular momentum is conserved

mvL = (I + mL^2)\omega

now we know that

m = 2 kg

v = 2.5 m/s

L = 0.35 m

I = 4.5 kg-m^2

now plug in all values in above equation

2\times 2.5 \times 0.35 = (4.5 + (2\times 0.35^2))\omega

1.75 = [4.5 + 0.245]\omega

1.75 = 4.745\omega

\omega = 0.37 rad/s

so the final angular speed will be 0.37 rad/s

Light travels at a speed of close to 3 x 10^5 km/s in vacuum. Given that it takes light 8 min and 19 s to travel the distance fr
never [62]

Answer:

1497×10⁵ km

Explanation:

Speed of light in vacuum = 3×10⁵ km/s

Time taken by the light of the Sun to reach the Earth = 8 min and 19 s

Converting to seconds we get

8×60+19 = 499 seconds

Distance = Speed × Time

\text{Distance}=3\times 10^5\times 499\\\Rightarrow \text{Distance}=1497\times 10^5\ km

1 AU = 1497×10⁵ km

The Sun is 1497×10⁵ km from Earth

A wave has a wavelength of 10 mm and a frequency of 4 hertz to what is it’s speed ?
nordsb [41]

Convert 10mm to metres = 0.01m

Wave speed = frequency *wavelength
= 4Hz*0.01m
= 0.04 m/s

Hope this helps

If Light is travels from air into pure water with an incident angle of 30°. What is the angle of refraction?
Orlov [11]

Explanation:

For air, n1 = 1.00003; for water, n2 = 1.3330

Given: θ2 = 30 degrees, then

θ1 = arcsin [(n2/n1) sin θ2]

= arcsin [(1.3330/1.0003) sin (40)]

= 58.93 degrees

Note that since, in this example, light is traveling from a medium of higher density (water; n2 = 1.3330) to a medium of lower density (air; n1 = 1.0003), then n2 > n1, and the angle of refraction (θ1) is larger than the angle of incidence (θ2), thus the light bends away from the normal (in this example, the vertical) as it leaves the water and enters the air.
