A small 20-kg canoe is floating downriver at a speed of 2 m/s. 40 J is the canoe’s kinetic energy.
Answer: Option A
<u>Explanation:</u>
The given canoe has the mass and is being given to move at a speed. Therefore the kinetic energy of the canoe can be calculated using the following method,
Given that mass of the canoe = 20 kg and its speed =1 m/s
As we know that the Kinetic energy has the formula,
Therefore, substituting the value into the equation, we get,
= 40 J
Interesting I guess not much you put
Winds blowing across the ocean surface push water away. Water then rises up from beneath the surface to replace the water that was pushed away. This process is known as “upwelling.”
Upwelling occurs in the open ocean and along coastlines. The reverse process, called “downwelling,” also occurs when wind causes surface water to build up along a coastline and the surface water eventually sinks toward the bottom.
Water that rises to the surface as a result of upwelling is typically colder and is rich in nutrients. These nutrients “fertilize” surface waters, meaning that these surface waters often have high biological productivity. Therefore, good fishing grounds typically are found where upwelling is common.
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.
Weight = (mass) x (acceleration of gravity).
On Earth, acceleration of gravity = 9.8 m/s² (rounded)
On Earth, 2.2kg of mass weighs (2.2kg) x (9.8 m/s²) =
21.6 kg-m/s² = <em>21.6 Newtons</em>.
(That's about 4.85 pounds.)
