E the temperature of a substance. Water has a very high specific heat. That means it needs to absorb a lot of energy before its temperature changes. Sand , on the other hand, have lower specific heats. This means that their temperatures change more quickly. When the summer sun shines down on them, they quickly become hot.

Suppose an object’s initial velocity is 10 m/s and its final velocity is 4 m/s. Mass is constant.
Ostrovityanka [42]

The correct answer is:

Work is negative, the environment did work on the object, and the energy of the system decreases.

In fact, the work-energy theorem states that the work done by the system is equal to its variation of kinetic energy:

W=\Delta K=K_f -K_i

In this problem, the variation of kinetic energy \Delta K is negative (because the final velocity is less than the initial velocity), so the work is negative, and this means that the environment did work on the object, and its energy decreased.

ENERGY SAVERS RACE, BRAIN BURNER. This question is about solar cars at the Chuck Norris Institute of Technology, CNIT, in Ocala,
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

a) d = 6.0 m

Explanation:

Since car is accelerating at uniform rate then here we can say that the distance moved by the car with uniform acceleration is given as

d = \frac{(v_f + v_i)}{2} \times t

here we know that

v_f = 10 m/s

v_i = 0

t = 1.2 s

now we will have

d = \frac{(10 + 0)}{2}\times 1.2

d = 5 \times 1.2

d = 6.0 m

Two parallel plates are 1 cm apart and are connected to a 500 V source. What force will be exerted on a single electron half way
VladimirAG [237]

Answer: 8*10^-15 N

Explanation: In order to calculate the force applied on an electron in the middle of the two planes at 500 V we know that,  F=q*E

The electric field between  the plates is given by:

E = ΔV/d = 500 V/0.01 m=5*10^3 N/C

the force applied to the electron is: F=e*E=8*10^-15 N

A blue ball is thrown upward with an initial speed of 23.9 m/s, from a height of 0.8 meters above the ground. 2.9 seconds after
murzikaleks [220]
<span>At the exact instant the blue ball reaches maximum height, it is stationary for that millisecond in time before it begins to fall, therefore its speed is zero. (The other factors listed have no effect on the speed at the moment of maximum height.)</span>
