The ratio of kinetic energy of ball A to ball B is 27

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation: </u>

The kinetic energy of any object is the energy exhibited by the object when it is in motion. The kinetic energy of any object is directly proportional to the mass of the object and square of the speed at which the object is moving. So the kinetic energy of any object can be represented as

                 E_{k}=\frac{1}{2} \times m \times(\text { speed })^{2}

In this case, for ball B the mass is 1 kg and speed is 1 m/s. So the kinetic energy of ball B is

            \text { Kinetic energy for ball } B=\frac{1}{2} \times 1 \times 1^{2}=0.5 J

As it is said that the mass (M) and speed of ball A is three times the mass and speed of ball B.  So ,

         \text { M of ball } A=3 \times M \text { of ball } B=3 \times 1=3 \mathrm{kg}

And,

           \text { Speed of ball } A=3 \times \text { Speed of ball } B=3 \times 1=3 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}

Thus, the kinetic energy of ball A will be

            \text {Kinetic energy for ball } A=\frac{1}{2} \times 3 \times 9=13.5 \mathrm{J}

Now, to determine the ratio of kinetic energy of ball A to ball B,

\text { Ratio of kinetic energy }=\frac{\text {Kinetic energy of Ball } A}{\text {Kinetic energy of Ball } B}=\frac{13.5}{0.5} = 27

Choose all of the true statements regarding the relationship between voltage, resistance, and current. Current is measured in am
AveGali [126]

-- <u><em>Current is measured in amps.</em></u>  (You can use any symbol you want to represent current, but the most common one is " I ", not "Δ".)

-- <u><em>The relationship between current, voltage, and resistance is mathematically defined by Ohm's Law. </em></u>

-- <u><em>Current is the flow of electrons through a circuit.</em></u>

-- (Ohm's Law is NOT mathematically represented by the equation V=I/R.)  <u><em>It should be V = I · R</em></u> .  

(When solving for Resistance in a circuit and both voltage and current are known values, the equation I =V*R is not true, and not the way to solve it.)  <u><em>If the resistance is what you're looking for, then the equation to use is  </em></u><u><em>R = V / I</em></u><u><em> .  </em></u>

<em>-- </em><u><em>If the voltage in a circuit is increased, the current will also increase.</em></u>

Why are noise considerations important in optical fiber communications? 3. Describe the principle of "population inversion".
pochemuha

Answer and Explanation:

the electronic devices always have some noises present in the signal

there are some important considerations in optical fiber communications these are.

  • the noise which is contributed by transmitter are electronic random noise, low frequency noise
  • noise which is contributed by laser are relative intensity noise, mode partition noise, conversion of phase noise to amplitude noise.
  • noise contributed by photo detector are quantum shot noise, shot noise from dark current, avalanche multiplication noise.

PRINCIPLE OF POPULATION INVERSION :

The principle of population inversion is defined as for production of high percentage of simulated emission for a laser beam the number of atoms in higher state should be greater than lower energy state

If the mass of the object is doubled and the speed is halved then kinetic energy will change by a factor of:
madam [21]

Answer:

kinetic energy will change by a factor of 1/2

Option C) 1/2 is the correct answer

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

we know that;

Kinetic energy = 1/2.mv²

given that mass of the object is doubled; m1 = 2m

speed is halved; v1 = V/2

Now, New kinetic energy will be; 1/2.m1v1²

we substitute

Kinetic Energy = 1/2 × 2m × (v/2)²

Kinetic Energy = 1/2 × 2m × (v²/4)

Kinetic Energy = 1/2 × m × (v²/2)

Kinetic Energy = 1/2 [ 1/2mv² ]

Kinetic Energy = 1/2 [ KE ]

Therefore; kinetic energy will change by a factor of 1/2

Option C) 1/2 is the correct answer
