Answer:
Explained below
Explanation:
When we eat food, our body gets chemical energy from it. Now, this chemical energy from the food is changed into some different energy forms that is useful to it. They include:
-Chemical to mechanical energy to aid in movement of muscles
- chemical to thermal energy to aid in regulating the body temperature.
- chemical to electrical energy to aid the brain in thinking.
Thus is similar to how a machine converts energy because machines also generate energy after being powered and convert to other forms of energy. For example, an alarm clock converts electrical energy to sound energy, hair dryer converts electrical energy to thermal/heat energy.
Answer:
Option 3. The tennis ball began from rest and rolls at a rate of 14.7 m/s safer 1.5 seconds.
Explanation:
To know the the correct answer to the question, it is important that we know the definition of acceleration.
Acceleration can simply be defined as the rate of change of velocity with time. Mathematically, it is expressed as:
a = (v – u) /t
Where
a => acceleration
v => final velocity
u => Initial velocity
t => time
With the above information in mind, let us consider the options given in the question above to know which conform to the difinition of acceleration.
For Option 1,
We were told that the tennis ball has the following:
Distance = 4 m
Time = 1.5 s
This talks about the speed and not the acceleration.
Speed = distance / time
For Option 2,
We were only told about the average speed and nothing else.
For Option 3,
We were told that the tennis ball have the following:
Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s
Final velocity (v) = 14.7 m/s
Time = 1.5 s
This talks about the acceleration.
a = (v – u) /t
For Option 4,
We were only told that the tennis rolls to the right at an average speed. This talks about the average velocity. We need more information like time to justify the acceleration.
From the above illustrations, option 3 gives the correct answer to the question.
