A 5.0 kg object moving at 5.0 m/s. KE = mv2 times 1/2
steposvetlana [31]

Answer: KE = 62.5J

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of object = 5kg

kinetic energy KE = ?

velocity of object = 5m/s

Since kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a moving object, and it depends on the mass (m) of the object and the velocity (v) by which it moves. Therefore, the object has kinetic energy.

i.e K.E = 1/2mv^2

KE = 1/2 x 5kg x (5m/s)^2

KE = 0.5 x 5 x 25

KE = 62.5J

Thus, the object has 62.5 joules of kinetic energy.

A 5 μF capacitor is connected to a 12 V battery. The charge on each plate of the capacitor is:
ziro4ka [17]
1 farad = 1 coulomb/volt

5 μF = 5 x 10⁻⁶ coulomb/volt

        = 60 x 10⁻⁶ coulomb / 12 volts

The charge is 60 x 10⁻⁶ coulombs = 6 x 10⁻⁵  (choice-A)

When the government sets a price for wheat that is above the equilibrium price, it is imposing a<u> price floor</u>.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • <u>Price floors prevent a price from falling below a certain level. When a price floor is set above the equilibrium price, quantity supplied will exceed quantity demanded, and excess supply. </u>
  • <u>Price control </u>occurs when the government laws regulate prices instead of letting market forces determine prices.
  • <u>Price ceilings</u> prevent a price from rising above a certain level.
