Which is the correct answer?

Physics
1 answer:
Nezavi [6.7K]4 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Point A

Explanation:

The work done by stretching or compressing a spring is given by E=1/2kx²

The potential energy is numerically equal to the work done.

This means that the higher the bigger the value of the extension, x, the higher the energy contained.

In this scenario the modulus of x is considered.

Among the given values of x the modulus of -5 is the largest.

thus it gives the highest value of energy.

At a particular instant, a moving body has a kinetic energy of 295 J and a momentum of magnitude 25.1 kg · m/s.(a)What is the sp
motikmotik

Answer:

a) 23.51 m/s

b) 1.07 kg

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Kinetic energy, K = 295 J

Momentum, p = 25.1 kgm/s

a) The kinetic energy of a body is given as:

K = \frac{1}{2} mv^2

where m = mass of the body and v = speed of the body

We know that momentum is given as:

p = mv

Therefore:

K = 1/2 * pv

=> v = 2K / p

v = (2 * 295) / 25.1 = 23.51 m/s

The velocity of the body at that instant is 23.51 m/s.

b) Momentum is given as:

p = mv

=> m = p / v

m = 25.1 / 23.51  = 1.07 kg

The mass of the body at that instant is 1.07 kg

What are examples of a solution in solids, liquids, and gases
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

Solid: metal alloy

Liquid: beer

Gas: Air

Explanation:

A solution is a type of mixture where the solvent and solute are homogeneously mixed. Homogeneous mixture means that the solute shouldn't be able to be seen with the naked eye, filtered and stable enough.  

Metal alloy will be an example of a solution in solid-state. Beer is a solution made of liquid alcohol and liquid water. Air mostly composed of nitrogen, but it has oxygen, carbon dioxide, and many other substances in gaseous form.

On an ice skating rink, a girl of mass 50 kg stands stationary, face to face with a boy of mass 80 kg. The children push off of
sasho [114]

The velocity of the girl is  -4.8 m/s.

Using the principle of conservation of linear momentum, The total momentum of  bodies before and after collision is constant. Since the two objects are stationary, the initial momentum of each body is zero.

Thus;

0 = (80 × 3) + (50 × v)

0 = 240 + 50 v

-240 = 50 v

v = -240/50

v = -4.8 m/s

Note that the negative sign shows that the velocity of the girl is in opposite direction that that of the girl.

The velocity of the transverse waves produced by an earthquake is 8.9 km/s, and that of the longitudinal waves is 5.1 km/s. A se
Brrunno [24]

Answer: The distance is 723.4km

Explanation:

The velocity of the transverse waves is 8.9km/s

The velocity of the longitudinal wave is 5.1 km/s

The transverse one reaches 68 seconds before the longitudinal.

if the distance is X, we know that:

X/(9.8km/s) = T1

X/(5.1km/s) = T2

T2 = T1 + 68s

Where T1 and T2 are the time that each wave needs to reach the sesmograph.

We replace the third equation into the second and get:

X/(9.8km/s) = T1

X/(5.1km/s) = T1 + 68s

Now, we can replace T1 from the first equation into the second one:

X/(5.1km/s) = X/(9.8km/s) + 68s

Now we can solve it for X and find the distance.

X/(5.1km/s) - X/(9.8km/s) = 68s

X(1/(5.1km/s) - 1/(9.8km/s)) = X*0.094s/km= 68s

X = 68s/0.094s/km = 723.4 km

An object that completes 20 vibrations in 10 seconds has a frequency of
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

<em> The object has frequency of 2 Hz and time period of 0.5 s.</em>

Explanation:

<em>Frequency</em> is defined as number of oscillation per second ie back and forth swings done in single second.

Here it is given that the object oscillates 20 times in 10 seconds.

So f = \frac{20}{10} = 2Hz

The <em>time period</em> is defined as time taken by the object to complete one full oscillation.

T = \frac{1}{f}

T= \frac{1}{2} =0.5 s

<em>Thus the object has frequency of 2 Hz and time period of 0.5 s.</em>
