A worker drives a 0.562 kg spike into a rail tie with a 2.26 kg sledgehammer. The hammer hits the spike with a speed of 64.4 m/s
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of sledge hammer;

Mh =2.26 kg

Hammer speed;

Vh = 64.4 m/s

The expression fot the kinetic energy of the hammer is,

K.E(hammer) = ½Mh•Vh²

K.E(hammer) = ½ × 2.26 × 64.4²

K.E ( hammer) = 4686.52 J

If one forth of the kinetic energy is converted into internal energy, then

ΔU = ¼ × K.E(hammer)

∆U = ¼ × 4686.52

∆U = 1171.63 J

Thus, the increase in total internal energy will be 1171.63 J.

You suspect that an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) is malfunctioning. You need to test the output from the UPS using a multi
zmey [24]

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

An Uninterruptible Power Supply abbreviated as UPS is used in case of the failure of the power mains or the input power in order to ensure uninterrupted power supply.

The Ac voltage is first converted to DC and then again inverted to the AC and is fed to the system.

Thus if the UPS malfunctions then in order to check the output using multimeter we use AC voltage setting because the UPS purely supplies AC power, even if the power is  supplied from its internal battery then also it inverts the DC into AC and then supply.

How was the theory of plate tectonics developed?
stepan [7]
Answer: A conflict between established theory, and empirical evidence, resulting in compromise.



Explanation;

Plate tectonic theory had its beginnings in 1915 when Alfred Wegener proposed his theory of "continental drift." Wegener proposed that the continents plowed through crust of ocean basins, which would explain why the outlines of many coastlines look like they fit together like a puzzle.
