Minerals of a single element are called Native elements. These include gold, silver, copper, etc. They can be divided into three groups such as metals, semi-metals, and nonmetals. Hope this helped.

Why are bridges declared unsafe after a long use​
lina2011 [118]

After it's long use, the bridge continuously undergoes through alternating strains. in result, the elastic strength of the bridge gets reduced. while the process goes on the bridge makes elastic fatigue and a permanent change happens which makes it collapse which is the reason why bridges are declared unsafe after a long use​ :)

An electric generator converts kinetic energy into which kind of energy?
dem82 [27]

Answer:

Electrical Energy

Explanation:

An electric generator is a device that changes kinetic energy to electrical energy through electromagnetic induction. Electromagnetic induction is the process of generating electric current with a magnetic field. ... Because the coil is rotating in a magnetic field, electric current is generated in the wire.

explain why for thousands of years people believed that stars moved across Earth's sky. Explain why we now have a different expl
Anarel [89]

Answer:

Ptolemy proposed a model, he reference system is centered on the Earth

Copernicus, proposed a deferent system,  this system is centered on the Sun, where it is at the origin of the system

Explanation:

Thousands of years ago, Ptolemy proposed a model to explain the movement of the planets and stars in the sky, in this model the reference system is centered on the Earth, so each body is orbiting in different spheres around the Earth as its center, this system had very complicated calculations and curves to be able to explain the orbits of the planets.

More recently Copernicus, proposed a deferent system, this system is centered on the Sun, where it is at the origin of the system, in this system the movement of the planets are ellipses, which is a much simpler explanation and has been widely accepted, in current systems the reference system is fixed in the bodies more massive, since this simplifies the explanation of the movements.

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

Part a)

f = \frac{8}{9}

Part b)

f = \frac{120}{169}

Part c)

So from above discussion we have the result that energy loss will be more if the collision occurs with animal with more mass

Explanation:

Part a)

Let say the collision between Moose and the car is elastic collision

So here we can use momentum conservation

m_1v_{1i} = m_1v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}

1000 v_o = 1000 v_{1f} + 500 v_{2f}

also by elastic collision condition we know that

v_{2f} - v_{1f} = v_o

now we have

2v_o = 2v_{1f} + v_o + v_{1f}

now we have

v_{1f} = \frac{v_o}{3}

Now loss in kinetic energy of the car is given as

\Delta K = \frac{1}{2}m(v_o^2 - v_{1f}^2)

\Delta K = \frac{1}{2}m(v_o^2 - \frac{v_o^2}{9})

so fractional loss in energy is given as

f = \frac{\Delta K}{K}

f = \frac{\frac{4}{9}mv_o^2}{\frac{1}{2}mv_o^2}

f = \frac{8}{9}

Part b)

Let say the collision between Camel and the car is elastic collision

So here we can use momentum conservation

m_1v_{1i} = m_1v_{1f} + m_2v_{2f}

1000 v_o = 1000 v_{1f} + 300 v_{2f}

also by elastic collision condition we know that

v_{2f} - v_{1f} = v_o

now we have

10v_o = 10v_{1f} + 3(v_o + v_{1f})

now we have

v_{1f} = \frac{7v_o}{13}

Now loss in kinetic energy of the car is given as

\Delta K = \frac{1}{2}m(v_o^2 - v_{1f}^2)

\Delta K = \frac{1}{2}m(v_o^2 - \frac{49v_o^2}{169})

so fractional loss in energy is given as

f = \frac{\Delta K}{K}

f = \frac{\frac{60}{169}mv_o^2}{\frac{1}{2}mv_o^2}

f = \frac{120}{169}

Part c)

So from above discussion we have the result that energy loss will be more if the collision occurs with animal with more mass

zybooks One AA battery in a flashlight stores 9400 J. The three LED flashlight bulbs consume 0.5 W. How many hours will the flas
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

The time for which the flashlight last is 5.23 hours.

Explanation:

Given that,

One AA battery in a flashlight stores 9400 J, E = 9400 J

Power consumed by the LED flashlight bulbs, P = 0.5 W

We need to find the time for which the flashlight last. The power of a device is given by the energy stored per unit time as :

P=\dfrac{E}{t}

t=\dfrac{E}{P}

t=\dfrac{9400\ J}{0.5\ W}

t = 18800  seconds

or

Since, 1 hour = 3600 seconds

t = 5.23 hours

So, the time for which the flashlight last is 5.23 hours. Hence, this is the required solution.
