Answer:
Explanation:
The net force on the potatoes is given by:
F= 52 - mgSintheta
F= 52- (2×9.8× Sin70°)
F = 52 -18.4
F= 33.58N
Using Newton's 2nd law
F = ma
a=F/m = 33.58/ 2 = 16.79m/s^2
Using the equation of motion:
V^2= u^2 + 2as
V^2 = 0 + 2× 16.79 x2
V^2 = 67.16
V=sqrt(68.16)
V= 8.195m/s This is the exit velocity of the potatoes
Kinetic energy, K.E = 1/2mv^2
KE= 1/2 × 2 × 8.195^2
KE = 67.16J
Answer:
Explanation:
The two major defects of simple electric cells causes current supplied to be for short time. These defects are: polarization and local action.
a. Polarization: This is a defect caused by an accumulation of hydrogen bubbles at the positive electrode of the cell. It can be prevented by the use of vent, using a hydrogen absorbing material or the use of a depolarizer.
b. Local Action: This is the gradual wearing away of the electrode due to impurities in the zinc plate. It can be controlled by the amalgamation of the zinc plate before it is used.
Answer:
Total distance = 700 m
Displacement = 500 m
Explanation:
Notice that Jed travelled a total of 3 x 100 m = 300 m in the North direction, and 300 m + 100 m = 400 m in the East direction. Therefore the total distance he travelled is: 300 + 400 = 700 m.
But the actual displacement is given by the Pythagorean theorem as the hypotenuse of a right angle triangle of legs 300 m and 400 m:
displacement = 
Answer:
The ocean tides on earth are caused by both the moon's gravity and the sun's gravity. ... Even though the sun is much more massive and therefore has stronger overall gravity than the moon, the moon is closer to the earth so that its gravitational gradient is stronger than that of the sun.
The time described above is known as the waves Period.
The time which it takes for a particle to complete one full cycle is known as the period. Period is normally measured in seconds. Frequency on the other hand is the number of cycles which are completed in a given period of time e.g a second. periodic time T is given by reciprocal of frequency (1/f).
