Answer:

Kinetic energy

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is a function of velocity. Since the rider is moving at a certain speed, he's demonstrating kinetic energy. It can't be potential energy because potential energy encompass mgh

Which of the following is an example of Newton's second law of motion?
laiz [17]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Newton’s Second Law of Motion

Newton’s Second Law of Motion states that ‘when an object is acted on by an outside force, the mass of the object equals the strength of the force times the resulting acceleration’.

This can be demonstrated dropping a rock or and tissue at the same time from a ladder. They fall at an equal rate—their acceleration is constant due to the force of gravity acting on them.

The rock's impact will be a much greater force when it hits the ground, because of its greater mass. If you drop the two objects into a dish of water, you can see how different the force of impact for each object was, based on the splash made in the water by each one.

Fiber-optic cables are used widely for internet wiring, data transmission, and surgeries. When light passes through a fiber-opti
Gwar [14]
After one meter, 3.4% of the light is gone ... either soaked up in the fiber
material or escaped from it.  So only  (100 - 3.4) = 96.6% of the light
remains, to go on to the next meter.

After the second meter,  96.6%  of what entered it emerges from it, and
that's  96.6%  of  96.6%  of the original signal that entered the beginning
of the fiber.

==>  After 2 meters, the intensity has dwindled to  (0.966)² of its original level.
It's that exponent of ' 2 ' that corresponds to the number of meters that the light
has traveled through.

==>  After  'x'  meters of fiber, the remaininglight intensity is (0.966) ^x-power
of its original value.

If you shine 1,500 lumens into the front of the fiber, then after 'x' meters of
cable, you'll have
                                                     <em>(1,500) · (0.966)^x</em>
lumens of light remaining.
 
=========================================

The genius engineers in the fiber design industry would not handle it this way.
When they look up the 'attenuation' of the cable in the fiber manufacturer's
catalog, it would say  "15dB per 100 meters".

What does that mean ?    Break it down:  15dB in 100 meters is <u>0.15dB per meter</u>.
Now, watch this:

Up at the top, the problem told us that the loss in 1 meter is  3.4% .  We applied
super high mathematics to that and calculated that  96.6% remains, or  0.966.

Look at this  ==>      10 log(0.966) =  <em><u>-0.15</u>  </em>  <==  loss per meter, in dB .

Armed with this information, the engineer ... calculating the loss in  'x'  meters of
fiber cable, doesn't have to mess with raising numbers to powers.  All he has to
do is say ...

--  0.15 dB loss per meter

--  'x' meters of cable

--  0.15x dB of loss.

If  'x' happens to be, say,  72 meters, then the loss is  (72) (0.15) = 10.8 dB .

and  10 ^ (-10.8/10) = 10 ^ -1.08 = 0.083  =  <em>8.3%</em>  <== <u>That's</u> how much light
he'll have left after 72 meters, and all he had to do was a simple multiplication.

Sorry. Didn't mean to ramble on. But I do stuff like this every day.
