What does AC stand for in physics?

According to the law of conservation of energy, mechanical energy can be changed to heat energy.

Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

The answer to this question is given below in this explanation section.

Explanation:

" law of conservation of energy"

The law of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed only converted from one form of energy into another.This mean that a system always has a same account of a energy,unless it is added from the outside.This is particularly confusing in the case of non conversation forces,where energy is converted from ,mechanical energy into thermal energy.but the overall energy does remain the same.The only way to use energy is to transform energy from one form to another.

The amount of energy in any system than it is determined by the following equation.

Ut=Ui +W+Q

Ut is the total internal energy of a system.
Ui is the initial internal energy of a system.
W is the work done by or on the system.
Q is the heat added to or removed by the system.

It is also possible to determined the change in internal energy of the system using the equation.

ΔU=W+Q

The mechanical energy of a system increases provided their is no loss of energy due to friction.The energy would transform to kinetic energy when the speed is increasing.Te mechanical energy of a system remain constant provided their is no loss of energy due to friction.

The law of conversation of energy which say that in a closed system total energy is conserved that is it constant.

An old-fashioned LP record rotates at 33 1/3 RPM

Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

Part a) $\frac{5}{9}\ \frac{rev}{sec}$

Part b) $\frac{9}{5}\ \frac{sec}{rev}$

Explanation:

Part a) what is its frequency, in rev/s

we have that

An old-fashioned LP record rotates at 33 1/3 RPM

so

$33\frac{1}{3}\ \frac{rev}{min}$

Convert mixed number to an improper fraction

$33\frac{1}{3}\ \frac{rev}{min}=\frac{33*3+1}{3}=\frac{100}{3}\ \frac{rev}{min}$

Remember that

$1\ min=60\ sec$

Convert rev/min to rev/sec

$\frac{100}{3}\ \frac{rev}{min}=\frac{100}{3}(\frac{1}{60})=\frac{100}{180}\ \frac{rev}{sec}$

Simplify

$\frac{5}{9}\ \frac{rev}{sec}$

Part b) what is it period, in seconds

we know that

The period is the reciprocal of the frequency

therefore

the frequency is

$\frac{9}{5}\ \frac{sec}{rev}$

Technician A says that a power-assisted brake system reduces stopping distances compared to a nonpower-assisted brake system. Te

yanalaym [24]

Answer:

Technician B

Explanation:

here on analyzing both the statements from technician A and technician B. The Statement from Technician B is more logical and correct. That the power-assisted brake system reduces the force that the driver must exert on the brake pedal.

The power-assisted brake system does not reduce the distance of stopping. What it does is it reduces the force to be applied by the driver. Thus, making the drive more comfortable.

Wittaler [7]

The answer is a.) the ocean is colder than the land.
Thus, Jorge visits Panama city, Florida during the month of may. he feels a shore breeze blowing from the ocean on the beach because Jorge visits Panama city, Florida during the month of may. he feels a shore breeze blowing from the ocean on the beach.

Hope it helps!
