How does the energy of the marble remain the same at all points on the ramp

Physics
1 answer:
Elenna [48]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

It depends on the potential energy it has ontop of the ramp. The marble has the same potential energy was the kinetic energy without changing the ramp incline or moving it. What kinetic energy shows is what potential energy made it to be, so we look at how the ramp is placed. If the ramp is a steep incline the kinetic energy will be fast. It depends on the weight of the marble too. If the marble is heavy the potential energy will slowly tansition to kinetic energy while a  light marble will transition to kinetic energy fast. But marbles are light so there we have it. It basically goes from potential energy to kinetic energy to thermal energy to potential energy.  Make me brainliest pls :)

For the answer to the question above,
we can get the number of fringes by dividing (delta t) by the period of the light (Which is λ/c). 

fringe = (delta t) / (λ/c) 

We can find (delta t) with the equation: 

delta t = [v^2(L1+L2)]/c^3 

Derivation of this formula can be found in your physics text book. From here we find (delta t): 

600,000^2 x (11+11) / [(3x10^8)^3] = 2.93x10^-13 

2.93x10^-13/ (589x10^-9 / 3x10^8) = 149 fringes 

This answer is correct but may seem large. That is because of your point of reference with the ether which is usually at rest with respect to the sun, making v = 3km/s.

A revolutionary war cannon, with a mass of 2260 kg, fires a 15.5 kg ball horizontally. The cannonball has a speed of 109 m/s aft
Anton [14]

Answer:

The gain in velocity is 0.37m/s

Explanation:

We need solve this problem though the conservation of momentum. That is,

m_1 v_1 = m_2 v_2

m_1=2260Kg\\m_2=15.5Kg\\v_2= 109m/s

Using the equation to find v_1,

v_1=\frac{m_2 v_2}{m_1}\\v_1=\frac{15.5*109}{2260}\\v_1= 0.7475

Using the conservation of energy equation, we have,

KE= \frac{1}{2}m*v^2

KE_{cball}=\frac{1}{2}(15.5)(109)^2=92077.75J

KE_{cannon}=\frac{1}{2}(2260)(0.7475)^2=631.39J

Total KE= 92077.75+13425530=92708.9J

Now this energy over the cannonball

KE=\frac{1}{2}m*v_2^2

92708.9=\frac{1}{2}15.5v_2^2

V_2 = 109.37m/s

The gain in velocity is 0.37m/s

____ is the thermal energy transfer that occurs from the motion of fluid in a liquid or gas.
Marysya12 [62]
The answer is C. Convection.

Radiation is the transfer of energy through electromagnetic waves. Conduction, on the other hand, is energy transfer through solid material. Condensation occurs when warm gas makes contact with a cold surface or environment, which causes a change in state from gas to liquid. These definitions rule out choices A, B, and D. 

Convection is movement of particles in fluid or gas. As liquid/gas heats up, it becomes less dense and rises, moving away from the heat source. When it rises, it eventually cools down and sinks again. It is warmed up again and the cycle continues. This is why there is a circular motion when convection occurs.

Atmospheric pressure is greater at the base of a mountain than at
aliina [53]

At the top of the mountain, when he tightens the cap onto the bottole, there is some water and some air inside the bottle.  Then he brings the bottle down to the base of the mountain.

The pressure on the outside of the bottle is greater  than it was when he put the cap on.  If anything could get out of the bottlde, it would. But it can't . . . the cap is on too tight. So all the water and all the air has to stay inside, and anything that can get squished into a smaller space has to get squished into a smaller space.

The water is pretty much unsquishable.

Biut the air in there can be <em>COMPRESSED</em>.  The air gets squished into a smaller space, and the bottle wrinkles in slightly.

A scientist is studying a shock wave from an earthquake. What kind of wave is being studied? an electromagnetic wave a gamma ray
Anettt [7]
<span>So we want to know what kind of wave is the scientist is studying while studying earthquakes. Waves that produce earthquakes are mechanical waves. Gamma rays and radiowaves are both electromagnetic waves and don't require a medium but mechanical do. So the correct answer is mechanical waves.</span>
