When low on gasoline, is it better to increase or decrease the speed of the vehicle? Explain.

1 answer:

5 0

Yeah!! It is better to decrease the speed of the vehicle so the ejection of gases would happen in slow manner.... then you can save your gasoline

Answer: force of gravity on the body due to height difference above the earth's surface

Explanation: as you increase the height of a body above ground, you do work against gravity in moving it from a point on the earth's surface to that point. So a body falling has a stored up gravito-potential energy which acts on it downward due to its mass, accelerating it downwards

Answer b): kinetic energy of the body

Explanation: the downward force produces an acceleration of magnitude 9.81m/s2 downwards which means an increasing velocity. This increasing velocity means the kinetic energy of the body is increasing (kinetic energy is proportional to velocity of the body squared)

Consider a uniform solid sphere of radius R and mass M rolling without slipping. Which form of its kinetic energy is larger, tra

castortr0y [4]

Answer:

A. Its translational kinetic energy is larger than its rotational kinetic energy.

Explanation:

Given that

Radius = R

Mass = M

We know that mass moment of inertia for the solid sphere

$I=\dfrac{2}{5}MR^2$

Lets take angular speed =ω

Linear speed =V

Condition for pure rolling , V= ω R

Rotation energy ,RE

$RE=\dfrac{1}{2}I\omega^2$

$RE=\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{2}{5}MR^2\times \omega^2$

$RE=\dfrac{1}{5}\times MR^2\times \omega^2$

$RE=\dfrac{1}{5}\times MV^2$

RE= 0.2 MV²

The transnational kinetic energy TE

$TE=\dfrac{1}{2}MV^2$

TE= 0.5 MV²

From above we can say that transnational energy is more than rotational energy.

Therefore the answer is A.

Maximum current problem. If the current on your power supply exceeds 500 mA it can damage the supply. Suppose the supply is set

VikaD [51]

To solve this problem we will apply Ohm's law. The law establishes that the potential difference V that we apply between the ends of a given conductor is proportional to the intensity of the current I flowing through the said conductor. Ohm completed the law by introducing the notion of electrical resistance R. Mathematically it can be described as

$V = IR \rightarrow R = \frac{V}{I}$
