Answer:
C. molecules speed up as more thermal energy is added
Explanation:
The molecules will simply speed up as more thermal energy is added to the solid.
Thermal energy is a form of kinetic energy which is set in motion.
- Heat causes kinetic energy build up in a body.
- As the molecules of the solid gains heat, they will continue to increase in thermal energy.
- They are forced to start vibrating about their fixed point.
- Thereafter, when they have enough energy, they break free from the forces holding them.
- Therefore, they move from a state of rest to one with a very high kinetic energy where the molecules moves rapidly.
- This is why a solid will change to liquid and sometimes eventually gas
When pushing a toy truck up an inclined plane, the force that makes the truck goes up is the force that the child uses to push the truck. (The force that pushes
Therefore the correct option is C.
Answer:
A)
0.395 m
B)
2.4 m/s
Explanation:
A)
= mass of the cart = 1.4 kg
= spring constant of the spring = 50 Nm⁻¹
= initial position of spring from equilibrium position = 0.21 m
= initial speed of the cart = 2.0 ms⁻¹
= amplitude of the oscillation = ?
Using conservation of energy
Final spring energy = initial kinetic energy + initial spring energy

B)
= mass of the cart = 1.4 kg
= spring constant of the spring = 50 Nm⁻¹
= amplitude of the oscillation = 0.395 m
= maximum speed at the equilibrium position
Using conservation of energy
Kinetic energy at equilibrium position = maximum spring potential energy at extreme stretch of the spring

Answer:
51.94 ft/s²
257.63 ft/s
Explanation:
t = Time taken = 4 s
u = Initial velocity = 34 mi/h
v = Final velocity
s = Displacement = 615 ft
a = Acceleration
Converting velocity to ft/s

Equation of motion

Acceleration is 51.94 ft/s²

Final velocity at this time is 257.63 ft/s
