EC_1 + EP_1 = EC2 + EP_2

EC_2 = 0

EC_2 = EP_1 - EP_2

EC_2 = mg(H_1 - H_2) = 0.20 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 * (3.25 m - 1.5m) = 3.43 J

Answer:

3.43 J

Explanation:

One form of energy can convert to another but cannot be created or destroyed.

A body has potential energy due to its position or configuration.

P.E. = m g h

A body has kinetic energy due to its motion.

K.E. = 0.5 mv²

Mechanical energy is the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy and in the absence of any external forces, the mechanical energy remains conserved.

Potential energy+ Kinetic energy (at the top) = Potential energy +kinetic energy (at 3.25 m)

⇒ m g h + 0 = m g h' + K.E.'

⇒K.E. ' = mg (h -h') = 0.20 kg × 9.81 m/s² × (3.25 m - 1.5 m) = 3.43 J

An element is highly conductive, highly reactive, soft, and lustrous. The element most likely belongs to which group?(1 point)
UkoKoshka [18]

An element which is highly conductive, highly reactive, soft, and lustrous is most likely an alkali metal.

Alkali metals are in group 1 of the Periodic table which means that they have only a single valence electron.

This causes them to be soft and highly reactive because:

  • The single valance electron leads to weak bonds amongst the element's atoms which makes them soft
  • The elements want to lose the single valance electron so as to become stable so they will react with other elements to give away the electron.

Examples of alkali electrons include:

  • Lithium
  • Sodium
  • Potassium etc

In conclusion therefore, alkali metals are highly reactive and soft and so the element described above is most likely an alkali metal.

How is the surface area of an average person is 2m^2 in the chapter pressure
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

We have to show surface area =2m^2,with few conditions that is by considering Force =200000\ N and Pressure =100000\ Pa to be respectively.

Explanation:

The atmospheric pressure is =10^{5}\ Pa on Earth's surface.

The magnitude of the force exerted on a person by the atmosphere is =2\times 10^{5}\N (or)\ 200kN\ (or)\ 20\ ton.

Now to calculate surface area we can find it from pressure=\frac{force}{area} and re-arranging it to.

area=\frac{force}{pressure}

So plugging the values,

Surface area =\frac{20000}{10000}=2\ m^{2}

Hence from the above calculations we can say that surface area is 2m^2.

So the surface area of an average person can be said to have 2m^2, using the concept of pressure and force.

When you are sitting a few feet from a fire, your skin feels warm. What forms of heat transfer are acting to transfer heat from
algol [13]
<span>In the question,' when you are sitting a few feet from the fire, your skin feels warmed. What form of heat transfer are acting to transfer heat from the fire to your skin, the correct option is A, that is, convection and radiation. Heat transfer is defined as the exchange of thermal energy between physical systems. The rate at which the heat is transfer depends on the temprature of the system and the properties of the intervening medium through which the heat is been transfered. There are three basic modes of heat transfer, these are: conduction, convection and radiation. Conduction is defined as the transfer of heat between two bodies through physical contact. When two bodies which have different temprature come in contact, there will be a transfer of heat energy between them until the two of them have the same temprature. Conduction usually occurs in solids and liquids; it occurs in gases also but it is extremely slow. Convection is the process by which heat is transfer in fluids, that is, liquids and gases. This is how convection operates: when a fluid is heated, it expands and it becomes lighter, this makes it to rise upward and move to the cooler part of the container, as it rises, it will be replaced by the unheated surrounding particles. This cycle continues until heat is evenly distributed all through the fluid. There are two types of convection: natural and forced convection. The heating of the earth surface by the sun ray is an example of natural convection while the air conditioner we use at home operates by mean of forced convection. Both conduction and convection require matter for heat transfer. Radiation is the transfer of heat from one place to another through electromagnetic waves. The hot body transfer heat by emitting electromagnetic waves. The properties of the electromagnetic waves depend on the temperature of the body. The higher the temperature the more intense the rate of emission of radiation. Radiation can occur in all objects and does not require matter for heat transfer. The heat of the sun reaches the earth surface by means of radiation. In the question given, as the air surrounding the fire were heated they rise and were replaced by the unheated air particles. The continuation of this cycle makes the heat energy to be transferred to the objects around. Thus, the heat from the fire was transferred via convection and radiation. </span>
