Answer:

Explanation:The sum of kinetic energy and potential energy is called mechanical energy.

The kinetic energy is possessed by an object by virtue of its motion and the potential energy is due to height of the object under the action of gravity.

Mathematically,

v is the velocity of the object

h is the height from ground

We know that the potential energy at topmost point is maximum and it is least at ground.

So, from the given figure it is clear that the ball in box C has less potential energy than the ball in box B.

Hence, the correct option is (d) "The ball in box C has less potential energy than the ball in box B".

vladimir2022 [97]

Answer: The pitch of the sound does not change.

Explanation: The pitch of sound wave is dependent on the frequency of the sound wave. The frequency of sound wave when their is a relative motion between an observer and a source is given by Doppler effect.

Doppler effect is a mathematical equation that gives the relationship between the observed frequency by an observer from any sound source and the relative motion between the observer and the source.

Mathematically,

f'= (v+v') /(v-vs) * f

Where f' = observed frequency of sound wave

v= speed of sound in air

v'= velocity of observer relative to sound source

vs= velocity of sound source relating to observer

f= frequency of sound produced by source

The observer is at the center, thus the distance between the observer and the source is constant (according to mensuration, the radius is constant for any given circle and since the car is moving along a circular path and the observer is at the center, thus the distance between them is constant), thus making the relative velocity between the observer and the source constant (vs=constant).

Also the frequency of sound wave produce by the source is a constant (f=constant)

The speed of sound in air is also a constant (v=336m/s)

The observer is standing at the center thus he is not moving, hence the relative motion between observer and source is also constant (v'=constant)

Since all parameters are constant, then the observed frequency will be constant too.

the average american receives 2.28 mSv dose equivalent from radon each year. Assuming you receive this dose, and it all comes fr
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

The approximate number of decays  this represent  is  N= 23*10^{10}  

Explanation:

 From the question we are told that

    The amount of Radiation received by an average american is I_a = 2.28 \ mSv

     The source of the radiation is S = 5.49 MeV \ alpha \ particle

 Generally

            1 \  J/kg = 1000 mSv

   Therefore  2.28 \ mSv = \frac{2.28}{1000} = 2.28 *10^{-3} J/kg

Also  1eV = 1.602 *10^{-19}J

  Therefore  2.28*10^{-3} \frac{J}{kg} = 2.28*10^{-3} \frac{J}{kg}  * \frac{1ev}{1.602*10^{-19} J} = 1.43*10^{16} ev/kg

           An Average american weighs 88.7 kg

      The total energy received is mathematically evaluated as

        1 kg ------> 1.423*10^{16}ev \\88.7kg  --------> x

Cross-multiplying and making x the subject

           x = 88.7 * 1.423*10^{16} eV

              x = 126.2*10^{16}eV

Therefore the total  energy  deposited is x = 126.2*10^{16}eV

The approximate number of decays  this represent  is mathematically evaluated as

            N = \frac{x}{S}

Where n is the approximate number of decay

   Substituting values

                             N = \frac{126 .2*10^{16}}{5.49*10^6}  

                                  N= 23*10^{10}
