ALWAYS use significant figure rules. Remember that these rules apply to all numbers that are measurements. In working this probl

em, assume the value of "g" to be 9.8 m/s2 with two (2) significant digits unless otherwise stated.
Calculate the total energy of 2.0 kg object moving horizontally at 10 m/s 50 meters above the surface.

Answer : The correct option is, (d) 1080 J

Explanation :

Total energy = Kinetic energy + Potential energy

\text{Total energy}=\frac{1}{2}mv^2+mgh

where,

m = mass of an object = 2.0 kg

v = speed of an object = 10 m/s

h = height of an object = 50 m

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s^2

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get:

\text{Total energy}=\frac{1}{2}\times (2.0kg)\times (10m/s)^2+(2.0kg)\times (9.8m/s^2)\times (50m)

Total energy = 1080 J

Thus, the total energy will be, 1080 J

I am sitting on a train car traveling horizontally at a constant speed of 50 m/s. I throw a ball straight up into the air.
drek231 [11]

Answer:

Explanation:

I am sitting on a train car traveling horizontally at a constant speed of 50 m/s. I throw a ball straight up into the air. Before , the ball gets separated from my hand , both me the ball will be moving with velocity of 50 m /s in horizontal direction .

As soon as ball is separated from the hand , it acquires addition velocity in upward direction and acceleration in downward direction . This will give relative velocity to the ball with respect to me . So I will see the ball going in upward direction under  gravitational acceleration . It appears as if I am sitting at rest and ball is going in upward direction under deceleration . My motion at 50 m/s will have no effect on the motion of ball in upward direction , according to first law of Newton . It is so because ball too will be moving in forward direction with the same speed which will not be visible to me because I too am moving with the same speed.

If I  am  sitting at rest at home and I threw a ball straight up into the air , I will have the same experience of seeing ball going in similar way as described above.

lisov135 [29]

Complete option to the question:

A. The asthenosphere is broken up into large continental- and ocean-sized plates.

B. Convection currents within the asthenosphere push magma upward to create new crust.

C. Heat from deep within Earth is thought to keep the asthenosphere malleable.

D. The asthenosphere is the repository for parts of the lithosphere that are dragged downward in subduction zones.

Answer: The correct option is A (The asthenosphere is broken up into large continental- and ocean-sized plates.)

Explanation:

Among the components that makes up the earth crust are the lithosphere and the asthenosphere.

The LITHOSPHERE is the outer layer of the earth structure which consists of the upper part of the mantle and the crust.

The ASTHENOSPHERE is a part of the upper mantle just below the lithosphere that is involved in plate tectonic movement and isostatic adjustments. It is denser and weaker layer of the upper mantle which permits the movement of tectonic plates in the lithosphere.

The asthenosphere is the repository for parts of the lithosphere that are dragged downward in subduction zones.Heat from deep within Earth is thought to keep the asthenosphere malleable. And the convection currents within the asthenosphere push magma upward to create new crust. But it is not broken up into large continental- and ocean-sized plates.
