Why does Energy appear continuous in everyday life?

Physics
1 answer:
lara31 [8.8K]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The first law of thermodynamics, also known as Law of Conservation of Energy, states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed; energy can only be transferred or changed from one form to another. For example, turning on a light would seem to produce energy; however, it is electrical energy that is converted. Nothing happens to the energy. It does not change form, since energy has no form. ... If the energy was moving, it gets stored or re-transmitted elsewhere. Using energy means controlling its movement, rather than consuming it.

An archer pulls her bowstring back 0.376 m by exerting a force that increases uniformly from zero to 251 N. (a) What is the equi
Amanda [17]

Answer:

(A) 667.5 N/m

(B)

Explanation:

(A) Let the spring constant be k.

Using the formula F = kx

k = 251 / 0.376

K = 667.5 N/m

(B)

Work done

W = 0.5 × kx^2

W = 0.5 × 667.5 × 0.376 × 0.376

W = 47.2 J

An object is transported to three different planets in our solar system. Which of the following is true about that object?
Digiron [165]

<u>Answer;</u>

<em>D.  The object’s weight changes, but its mass stays the same.</em>

<u>Explanation;</u>

  • Mass is the amount of matter in a object, which is measured in kilograms. Mass of an object is measured using a beam balance. It is important to note that the mass of an object or a body remains constant, and does not vary from one place to another. For instance the mass of a person on the moon will be the same as when the person is on the earth surface.
  • Weight on the other hand is the measurement of gravitational pull of an object. weight is measured using a spring balance and measured in Newtons. Weight varies from one place to another depending on the gravitational pull of a given surface.

Unpolarized light passes through two polarizers whose transmission axes are at an angle # with respect to each other. What shoul
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

63.4^{\circ}

Explanation:

When unpolarized light passes through the first polarizer, the intensity of the light is reduced by a factor 1/2, so

I_1 = \frac{1}{2}I_0 (1)

where I_0 is the intensity of the initial unpolarized light, while I_1 is the intensity of the polarized light coming out from the first filter. Light that comes out from the first polarizer is also polarized, in the same direction as the axis of the first polarizer.

When the (now polarized) light hits the second polarizer, whose axis of polarization is rotated by an angle \theta with respect to the first one, the intensity of the light coming out is

I_2 = I_1 cos^2 \theta (2)

If we combine (1) and (2) together,

I_2 = \frac{1}{2}I_0 cos^2 \theta (3)

We want the final intensity to be 1/10 the initial intensity, so

I_2 = \frac{1}{10}I_0

So we can rewrite (3) as

\frac{1}{10}I_0 =  \frac{1}{2}I_0 cos^2 \theta

From which we find

cos^2 \theta = \frac{1}{5}

cos \theta = \frac{1}{\sqrt{5}}

\theta=cos^{-1}(\frac{1}{\sqrt{5}})=63.4^{\circ}
