Object A has 27 J of kinetic energy. Object B has one-quarter the mass of object A.
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

the final speed of object A changed by a factor of  \frac{1}{\sqrt{3} } = 0.58

the final speed of object B changed by a factor of \sqrt{\frac{5}{3} } = 1.29

Explanation:

Given;

kinetic energy of object A, = 27 J

let the mass of object A = m_A

then, the mass of object B = m_B = \frac{m_A}{4}

work done on object A = -18 J

work done on object B = -18 J

let v_i be the initial speed

let v_f be the final speed

For object A;

K.E_A = 27\\\\\frac{1}{2} m_A v_i^2 = 27\\\\m_A v_i^2  = 54\\\\m_A = \frac{54}{v_i^2} ----Equation \ (1)\\\\Apply \ work-energy \ theorem;\\\\\delta K.E_A = -18\\\\\frac{1}{2} m_A v_f^2 - \frac{1}{2} m_A v_i^2 = -18\\\\\frac{1}{2} m_A ( v_f^2 \ -  v_i^2 )\ =- 18\\\\v_f^2 \ -  v_i^2  = -\frac{36}{m_A} ---Equation \ (2)\\\\v_f^2 \ -  v_i^2  = -\frac{36v_i^2}{54}\\\\ v_f^2 \ =v_i^2 - \frac{36v_i^2}{54}\\\\ v_f^2 = \frac{54v_i^2 -36v_i^2 }{54} \\\\v_f^2 = \frac{18v_i^2}{54} \\\\v_f^2 = \frac{v_i^2}{3} \\\\

v_f = \sqrt{\frac{v_i^2}{3} }\\\\v_f = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3} } \ v_i\\\\

Thus, the final speed of object A changed by a factor of  \frac{1}{\sqrt{3} } = 0.58

To obtain the change in the final speed of object B, apply the following equations.

K.E_B_i = \frac{1}{2} m_Bv_i^2\\\\m_B = \frac{m_A}{4} \\\\K.E_B_i = \frac{1}{2}(\frac{m_A}{4} )v_i^2\\\\K.E_B_i = \frac{m_Av_i^2}{8} \\\\But, \ m_Av_i^2 = 54 \\\\K.E_B_i = \frac{54}{8} \\\\Apply \ work-energy \ theorem ;\\\\\delta K.E = -18\\\\K.E_f -K.E_i = -18\\\\\frac{1}{2}m_Bv_f^2 - \frac{1}{2} m_Bv_i^2 = -18\\\\Recall \ m_B =  \frac{m_A}{4} \\\\\frac{1}{2}(\frac{m_A}{4} )v_f^2 - \frac{1}{2}(\frac{m_A}{4} )v_i^2 = -18\\\\\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{m_A}{4} (v_i^2 -v_f^2) = 18\\\\

\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{m_A}{4} (v_i^2 -v_f^2) = 18\\\\v_i^2 -v_f^2 = \frac{8}{m_A} \times 18\\\\v_i^2 -v_f^2 =\frac{144}{m_A} \\\\But , m_A = \frac{54}{v_i^2} \\\\v_i^2 -v_f^2 =\frac{144v_i^2}{54} \\\\v_f^2 = v_i^2 - \frac{144v_i^2}{54}\\\\v_f^2 = \frac{54v_i^2-144v_i^2}{54}\\\\ v_f^2 = \frac{-90v_i^2}{54} \\\\v_f^2 = \frac{-5v_i^2}{3} \\\\|v_f| = \sqrt{\frac{5v_i^2}{3}} \\\\|v_f| = \sqrt{\frac{5}{3}} \ v_i

Thus, the final speed of object B changed by a factor of \sqrt{\frac{5}{3} } = 1.29

Things you can do with an environmental engineering major and a broadcasting minor?
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

With an  Environmental  Engineering  and a broadcasting minor

You can work as an On Air  personality that host  programs that provide your audience with  documentaries about the environments and project carried out by Environmental Engineer

and also you can work as a journalist that explore the world making research that will preserve the environment  and leveraging the media as a broadcaster to provide this research findings as a video for you audience  

Explanation:

In order to get a better understanding let define some terms

Environmental Engineer :

Environmental engineers resolve and help prevent environmental problems. They work in many areas, including air pollution control, industrial hygiene, toxic materials control, and land management. The duties of an environmental engineer range from planning and designing an effective waste treatment plant to studying the effects of acid rain on a particular area. An environmental engineer is sometimes required to work outdoors, though most of her work is done in a laboratory or office setting. Career opportunities for environmental engineers exist in consulting, research, corporate, and government positions.

Broadcasting:

Broadcasting is the distribution of audio or video content to a dispersed audience via any electronic mass communications medium, but typically one using the electromagnetic spectrum (radio waves), in a one-to-many model.

miskamm [114]

Answer:

Explanation:

Givens

d = 115 km

r = 80 km/hr

t = ?

Equation

d = r*T

Solution

115 = 80 * t    Divide by 80

115/80 = t

t = 1.4375 hours.

(Briefly explain what would happen, if there is no existence of capacitor in our world?​
skelet666 [1.2K]

If there is no existence of capacitors in our world there would be no electrical or electronic engineering.

A capacitor is a device that stores electrical energy in an electric field. It has two terminals and is a passive electrical component. Capacitance refers to a capacitor's effect. A capacitor commonly referred to as a condenser is one of the fundamental parts needed to create electronic circuits. Without fundamental parts like resistors, inductors, diodes, transistors, etc., a circuit's design is incomplete or it won't work properly.

Energy storage is capacitors' most popular application. Power conditioning, signal coupling or decoupling, electronic noise filtering, and remote sensing are further applications. Capacitors are employed in a wide variety of industries and have integrated into daily life due to their numerous applications.

There are numerous significant uses for capacitors. They are employed in digital circuits, for instance, to prevent the loss of data saved in big computer memories during a brief loss of power. The electric energy held in such capacitors keeps the data from being lost during a brief power outage.
