To explain, I will use the equations for kinetic and potential energy:
<h3>Potential energy </h3>
Potential energy is the potential an object has to move due to gravity. An object can only have potential energy if 1) <u>gravity is present</u> and 2) <u>it is above the ground at height h</u>. If gravity = 0 or height = 0, there is no potential energy. Example:
An object of 5 kg is sitting on a table 5 meters above the ground on earth (g = 9.8 m/s^2). What is the object's gravitational potential energy? <u>(answer: 5*5*9.8 = 245 J</u>)
(gravitational potential energy is potential energy)
<h3>Kinetic energy</h3>
Kinetic energy is the energy of an object has while in motion. An object can only have kinetic energy if the object has a non-zero velocity (it is moving and not stationary). An example:
An object of 5 kg is moving at 5 m/s. What is the object's kinetic energy? (<u>answer: 5*5 = 25 J</u>)
<h3>Kinetic and Potential Energy</h3>
Sometimes, an object can have both kinetic and potential energy. If an object is moving (kinetic energy) and is above the ground (potential), it will have both. To find the total (mechanical) energy, you can add the kinetic and potential energies together. An example:
An object of 5 kg is moving on a 5 meter table at 10 m/s. What is the objects mechanical (total) energy? (<u>answer: KE = .5(5)(10^2) = 250 J; PE = (5)(9.8)(5) = 245 J; total: 245 + 250 = 495 J</u>)
Answer:
A ball moving until gravity pulls it back down to the ground
Explanation:
Answer:
the total cross-sectional area of the capillaries is greater than the total cross-sectional area of the arteries or any other part of the circulatory system.
Explanation:
Blood velocity is not the same in all areas. In the capillaries it is where there is less speed, while in arteries and veins it is quite similar. This is due to the cross-sectional area of each of the vessels. It is a mistake to think of a vein, artery or capillary individually. We have to put them all together to see that the total area of the capillaries is 100 times larger than that of the arteries or veins. Blood flowing through arteries or veins is going faster because there is less area.
Blood velocity is inversely proportional to each of the areas of its territories. The greater the area, the lower the speed.
Answer:
(C) 2P
Explanation:
Ideal gas law states:
PV = nRT
n (the number of moles) and R (ideal gas constant) are constant, so we can say:
(PV / T) before = (PV / T) after
Chamber X starts at pressure P, volume V, and temperature T. At equilibrium, the pressure is Px, the volume is Vx, and temperature 3T.
PV / T = Px Vx / 3T
Chamber Y starts at pressure P, volume V, and temperature T. At equilibrium, the pressure is Py, the volume is Vy, and temperature T.
PV / T = Py Vy / T
Substituting and simplifying:
Px Vx / 3T = Py Vy / T
Px Vx / 3 = Py Vy
Since the chambers are at equilibrium, Px = Py:
Vx / 3 = Vy
Vx = 3 Vy
The total volume is the same as before, so:
Vx + Vy = 2V
Substituting:
(3 Vy) + Vy = 2V
4 Vy = 2V
Vy = V / 2
Now if we substitute into our equation for chamber Y:
PV / T = Py (V/2) / T
PV = Py (V/2)
Py = 2P
The pressure in chamber Y (and chamber X) doubles at equilibrium.
