Answer:

An example of kinetic energy is a <u><em>car coming to a stop</em></u>

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is the energy that a body or system possesses due to its movement. In physics this energy is defined as the amount of work necessary to accelerate a body of a certain mass and in rest position, until reaching a certain speed. This energy obtained will remain unchanged as long as this body does not vary its speed. That is, kinetic energy measures how many changes an object that is moving can cause.

<u><em>An example of kinetic energy is a car coming to a stop</em></u>. If the car is moving and comes to a stop, there is a change in speed, therefore in movement, eventually producing a change in kinetic energy. This energy depends on the mass of the body, in this case the car, and the speed.  As the speed decreases, the kinetic energy will decrease.

You are driving in a car for 30 minutes, with the windows down and the radio at a high volume. You turn the car off and leave th
matrenka [14]

Answer:

sensory adaption

Explanation:

Sensory adaption is the phenomenon where the intensity of a stimulus experienced by an organism decreases after a certain amount of exposure to the stimulus. This happens in order for us to pay attention to other stimulus.

When you are driving with the windows down and listening to music you are subjected to a lot of stimuli. Here, most of our attention needs to be on driving. So, our brain drowns all the other unneccessary stimuli like the music.

When you enter the car again where the other stimuli which were present while driving are absent, all your attention is diverted to the music. So, your're ears hurt.

A circuit has a current of 3.6 A and a resistance of 5.0 Ω. What is the voltage applied to the circuit?
Inessa [10]

The key formula ===> Voltage = (current) x (resistance)

Plug in the numbers given ===> Voltage = (3.6 A) x (5.0 ohms)

Dooda multiplication ===> Voltage = 18 volts
