Answer:

C) Gravitational potential energy

Explanation:

As ball is thrown upwards then we can say that speed of the ball will decrease as it will move upwards.

This is due to gravity which act opposite to the motion of the ball

So as the ball is thrown upwards the initial kinetic energy of the ball will start decreasing as it will move upwards

Here we also know that gravitational potential energy of the ball is given as

U = mgh

so as the ball start rising upwards the potential energy of the ball will increase

so here correct answer will be

C) Gravitational potential energy

A scientist directs monochromatic light toward a single slit in an opaque barrier. The light has a wavelength of 580 nm and the
vredina [299]

Answer:

a) 9.72 mm

b) 4.86 mm

Explanation:

wave length of light  λ is  580 nm = 580 \times 10⁻⁹ m

Width of slit d = 0.215\times 10⁻³ m

Distance of screen D  = 1.8 m.

Width of one fringe = \frac{\lambda\times D}{d}

Putting the values we get fringe width

= \frac{580\times10^{-9}\times1.8}{.000315}

=4.86 mm.

a) Width of central maxima = 2 times width of one fringe

= 2 times 4.86

=9.72 mm

b) width of each fringe except central fringe  is same , no matter what the order is.Only brightness changes .

So width of either of the two first order bright fringe will be same and it will be  

= 4.86 mm.

What is the net force on a 50-newton weight hanging on a string tied to the ceiling?
Lady bird [3.3K]
The net force on the hanging object is zero. If it were not zero, then the object would be accelerating in some direction.

Are all liquids able to conduct an electric current
Alona [7]

The ions are able to carry electric current through a solution. Some liquids such as oil or alcohol do not form ions and do not conduct electricity. Vinegar is mostly water with a small amount of acetic acid in it. The acetic acid separates into ions on so that the solution conducts electricity.     BRAINLIST ME PEASE

A man starts from rest and accelerates at 4.00 m/s2. If he covers a distance of 525 m, how long does he accelerate?
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

16.2 s

Explanation:

Given:

Δx = 525 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 4.00 m/s²

Find: t

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

525 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (4.00 m/s²) t²

t = 16.2 s
