Answer:

Kinetic energy

When work is done the energy is transferred from one type to another. This transferred energy may appear as kinetic energy.

For example, when you pedal your bicycle so that its speed increases, you are doing work to transfer chemical energy from your muscles to the kinetic energy of the bicycle.

Kinetic energy is the energy an object possesses by virtue of its movement. The amount of kinetic energy possessed by a moving object depends on the mass of the object and its speed. The greater the mass and the speed of the object the greater its kinetic energy.

The kinetic energy Ek of an object of mass m at a speed v is given by the relationship

{E_k} = \frac{1}{2}m{v^2}

m is the mass of the object in kilograms ( kg) and v is the speed of the object in metres per second ( m\,s^{-1}).

Explanation:

When work is done on an object it may also lead to energy being transferred to the object in the form of gravitational potential energy of the object.

Gravitational potential energy is the energy an object has by virtue of its position above the surface of the Earth. When an object is lifted, work is done. When work is done in raising the height of an object, energy is transferred as a gain in the gravitational potential energy of the object.

For example, suppose you lift a suitcase of mass m through a height h. The weight W of the suit case is a downward force of size mg. In lifting the suitcase, you would have to pull upwards on it with a force equal in size to its weight, mg.

Two suitcases. One has a green force arrow pointing up labelled F and a purple force arrow pointing down labelled 'Weight = mg'. The other case is raised by a height labelled h.

Suitcases with forces and height labelled

When this force (equal to the weight mg, but upwards) is applied to the suitcase over the distance h:

Work\,done=force\,\times\,distance\,upwards=mg\,\times\,h

This energy is transferred to potential energy when raising the object through a known height.

Energy = mass \times gravitational\,field\,strength \times height

E = m \times g \times h

This is the relationship used to calculate gravitational potential energy.

{E_p} = mgh

where m is the mass of the object in kilograms (kg), g is the gravitational field strength, (for positions near the surface of the Earth g = 9∙8 newtons per kilogram ( N kg ^{-1} and h is the height above the surface of the Earth in metres ( m).

An inexperienced researcher runs an experiment and sets his alpha level at .40 because he can't wait to get his firstsignificant
GuDViN [60]

A potential problem is that you are willing to accept a <u>5% </u>chance of being wrong if you reject the null hypothesis.

The significance level is the probability of rejecting the null hypothesis if it is true. For example, a significance level of 0.05 indicates a 5% risk of concluding that there is a difference when there is actually no difference. Rejecting the true null hypothesis results in a Type I error.

The smaller the value of α the more difficult it is to reject the null hypothesis. Therefore, choosing a low value for α can reduce the likelihood of Type I errors. The result here is that if the null hypothesis is false, it may be more difficult to reject using a lower value for α. The alpha value or statistical significance threshold is arbitrary. Which value to use depends on your field of study.

The electric field of a sinusoidal electromagnetic wave obeys the equation E = (375V /m) cos[(1.99× 107rad/m)x + (5.97 × 1015rad
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

a)  v = 2,9992 10⁸ m / s , b)  Eo = 375 V / m ,  B = 1.25 10⁻⁶ T,

c)     λ = 3,157 10⁻⁷ m,   f = 9.50 10¹⁴ Hz ,  T = 1.05 10⁻¹⁵ s , UV

Explanation:

In this problem they give us the equation of the traveling wave

        E = 375 cos [1.99 10⁷ x + 5.97 10¹⁵ t]

a) what the wave velocity

all waves must meet

        v = λ f

In this case, because of an electromagnetic wave, the speed must be the speed of light.

        k = 2π / λ

        λ = 2π / k

        λ = 2π / 1.99 10⁷

        λ = 3,157 10⁻⁷ m

        w = 2π f

        f = w / 2 π

        f = 5.97 10¹⁵ / 2π

        f = 9.50 10¹⁴ Hz

the wave speed is

        v = 3,157 10⁻⁷   9.50 10¹⁴

        v = 2,9992 10⁸ m / s

b) The electric field is

           Eo = 375 V / m

to find the magnetic field we use

           E / B = c

           B = E / c

            B = 375 / 2,9992 10⁸

            B = 1.25 10⁻⁶ T

c) The period is

           T = 1 / f

            T = 1 / 9.50 10¹⁴

            T = 1.05 10⁻¹⁵ s

the wavelength value is

          λ = 3,157 10-7 m (109 nm / 1m) = 315.7 nm

this wavelength corresponds to the ultraviolet

Approximate the Sun as a uniform sphere of radius 6.96 X 108 m, rotating about its central axis with a period of 25.4 days. Supp
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

T = 184 seconds

Explanation:

First in order to solve this, we need to know which is the expression to calculate the period. This is an exercise of angular velocity, so:

T = 2π/w

Where w: angular speed (in rad/s)

So, let's calculate first the innitial angular speed:

w = 2π/T

Converting days to seconds:

25.4 days * 24 h/day * 3600 s/h = 2,194,560 s

Then the angular speed:

w = 2π / 2,194,560 = 2.863x10^-6 rad/s

Now, the innitial angular momentum is:

I = (2/5)Mr² replacing data:

I = 2/5* (6.96x10^8)² * M = 1.94x10^17m² * M

so the initial angular momentum would be:

L = Iω = 2.863x10^-6 * 1.94x10^17 M

L = 5.55x10^11 m²/s * M = final angular momentum

Now the  final I = 2/5Mr²

Final I = 2/5 * (6.37x10^6)² * M  = 1.62x10^13m² * M

Then 5.55x10^11m²/s * M = 1.62x10^13m² * M * ω → M cancels

ω = 3.42x10^-2 rad/s

Then the new period

T = 2π/ω = 2*3.14 / 3.42x10^-2

T = 184 seconds
