Answer:the average kinetic energy is directly proportional to the temperature . When water freezes, the temperature decreases and therefore, the average kinetic energy will also decreases as well.

Setler [38]

Answer:

The correct answer is from Tech B.

Explanation:

The relay is an electromagnetic device, which is stimulated by a very weak electrical current to open or close a circuit.  It functions as a switch controlled by an electrical circuit in which, by means of a coil and an electromagnet, a sequence of one or several contactors is activated that allow to open or close other electrical circuits independent of the one that controls it.

Have a nice day!

the amount of water returning to the earth through precipitation is blank the amount of water leaving the earth through evaporat
nalin [4]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>The amount of water entering the earth through precipitation is equal to the amount of water leaving earth through transpiration.</em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Rates of precipitation and evaporation vary widely according to regions and seasons. But in a global scale the rates are equal. Thus the total amount of earth’s water maintains its constancy even though there is a continuous change in forms of water.

Evaporation and transpiration are the forms in which Water leaves the earth and it returns to the earth in various forms of precipitation like rain, snow, dew, fog etc. This water then reaches ocean and land. The water that reaches the land flows as surface run off into rivers and water bodies or seep into the ground replenishing the ground water table.

What is the speed of a car that travels 150 km in 3.00 hrs?
zhuklara [117]
You would do distance divided by speed. So 150÷3, which would equal 5km per hour.

A 2 kg ball is moving 3 m/s when it starts rolling up a hill.
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

the height reached is = 0.458 [m]

Explanation:

We need to make a sketch of the ball and see the location of the reference point where the potential energy is zero. But the kinetic energy will be defined by the following expression:

Ek=\frac{1}{2} *m*v^{2} \\where:Ek= kinetic energy [J]\\m = mass of the ball [kg]\\v = velocity of the ball [m/s]

Replacing the values on the equation we have:

Ek=\frac{1}{2}*(2)*(3^{2} )\\ Ek=9[J]\\

This kinetic energy will be transformed in potential energy in the moment when the ball starts to rolling up. Therefore the maximum height reached by the ball depends of the initial velocity given to the ball.

Ek=Ep\\where\\Ep=potential energy [J]\\Ep=m*g*h\\where\\g=gravity = 9.81[m/s^2]\\h=height reached [m]\\

Now we have:

h=\frac{Ep}{m*g} \\h=\frac{9}{2*9.81} \\\\h=0.45 [m]

In that moment when the ball reach the 0.45 [m] the potencial energy will be maximum and equal to the kinetic energy when the ball has a velocity of 3[m/s]

Suppose that two point charges, each with a charge of +3.00 Coulomb are separated by a distance of 3.00 meters. Determine the ma
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

9\cdot 10^9 N

Explanation:

The magnitude of the electrical force between the two point charges is

F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

q_1 =q_2 = +3.0 C is the magnitude of each charge

r = 3.00 m is the separation between the two charges

Substituting the numbers into the formula, we find

F=(9\cdot 10^9 Nm^2C^{-2})\frac{(+3 C)^2}{(3.00 m)^2}=9\cdot 10^9 N
