Physics

Greeley [361]3 years ago

Answer:Sample Response: The law of conservation of mass states that the total amount of mass remains constant in a system. In ecology, this means that when an organism is eaten, its mass is conserved. Some of the organism’s mass is used to make new proteins, and some of it is passed as waste in the form of urine or feces. The rest is converted directly into energy. This energy helps the consumer to move and grow, and it helps it to build and repair new tissue.

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

9V

Explanation:

The potential difference across the terminal as the same and thats because we are assuming that the source has no internal resistance.

Internal resistance are usually little resistances in the supply.

koban [17]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

According to research and data, the average cost for a severe injury in a collision is $247,000.

These include traumatic brain injury, severe damage to limbs which could result to loss of the limbs, spinal cord injuries that could result to partial or total paralysis as well as internal damage to organs in the collision.

How does a substance's temperatura chanté when the average kinetic energy of its particles increases? When it decreases?
Aleks [24]
Kinetic energy means movement. This means that the more something moves, the more kinetic energy it will have! And the faster something moves, the more heat it produces! Altogether, this means that the more Kinetic energy something has, the hotter it will be!

The opposite is also true. The less something moves, it will have less Kinetic energy and the colder it will get. 

If you're having trouble understanding this, think of it like how the particles in water move compared to how the particles in ice move. The particles in water are free flowing and can move wherever they want. If they get colder, they won't move as much, and eventually they'll stop flowing around, forming a solid and staying colder than the water will get.

An 8.5 kg crate is pulled 5.1 m up a 30 degree incline by a rope angled 17 degrees above the incline. The tension in the rope is
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

1. a W_t=746.63 J

  b E_p=212.415 J

  c W_n=183.96J

2. T_e=99.71J

Explanation:

a). The work done by the tension is:

W_t=T*dt

dt=\frac{5.1}{cos(17)}

W_t=140N*\frac{5.1}{cos(17)}

W_t=746.63 J

b). The work done potential of gravity

E_p=m*g*h

h=5.1*sin(17)

E_p=8.5kh*9.8*5.1*sin(30)

E_p=212.415 J

c). The work done by the normal force

W_n=N*d_n

d_n=5.1*sin(30)=2.55

W_n=8.5kg*9.8*cos(30)*2.55

W_n=183.96J

2. The increase in thermal energy is:

T_e=F*d

F_k=u_k*m*g=0.271*8.5kg*9.8*cos(30)

F_k=19.5N

T_e=19.55*5.1m

T_e=99.71J
