I need help, ASAP, I know what thermal energy is, but how does a skater use it when on the track?

Physics

Flauer [41]3 years ago

Answer: Looked it up but

Explanation:

When the skater lands on the track, the vertical component of his kinetic energy is converted to thermal energy. You can do experiments where there is no loss to thermal energy (only PE and KE conversions) by turning friction off and by making sure the skater doesn't leave the track.

Maurinko [17]
For an inelastic collision where coefficient of restitution,e, is equal to 0, the momentum is conserved but not the kinetic energy. So, there is addition or elimination of kinetic energy.

On the otherhand, when e = 1, like for an elastic collision, kinetic energy and momentum is conserved. Thus, the system's kinetic energy is unchanged.

calculate the weight of an object of mass 100kg on the surface of a planet whose mass is 4.8×10^24 kg and diameter is 12000km.​
notsponge [240]

Answer:

p= mv

where p is momentum

m is mass

v is velocity

so it's given p= 100kgm/sec

v= 4m/s

so putting in the formula

100= m × 4

m = 25kg

What is the law of inertia? Give an example of inertia in action.
belka [17]
Answer

Inertia is the resistance of any physical object to any change in its velocity. This includes changes to the object's speed, or direction of motion. An aspect of this property is the tendency of objects to keep moving in a straight line at a constant speed, when no forces act upon them.

Liz puts a 1 kg weight and a 10 kg on identical sleds. She then applies a 10N force to each sled. Which does not explain why the
Mariana [72]
Answer: C

Explanation:
The acceleration does not depend directly on the mass of the object.

Newton's Law is Force = Mass x Acceleration.
Therefore, Acceleration  = Force/Mass

The same force is applied in both cases.
Therefore acceleration is inversely proportional to mass.
As mass decreases, acceleration increases.
