Two students are watching a person riding a skateboard up and down a ramp. Each student shares what they think about the energy

of the skateboarder as they ride up and down the ramp.
Elisa: I think the skateboarder has the more total energy at the top bottom of the ramp than the bottom of the ramp.

Raymond: I think the skateboarder has the same total energy at all points on the ramp.

Which student do you agree with? Why?

Answer:

The correct option is;

Raymond: I think the skateboarder has the same total energy at all points on the ramp

Explanation:

The total energy, also known as the total mechanical energy, is the sum of the kinetic and potential energies of the skateboarder

Given that the potential energy is the energy gained due to elevation, the maximum potential energy is obtained at the top of the ramp, while the maximum kinetic energy, which is the energy due to motion, is at the bottom of the ramp where the skateboarder moves fastest.

However, by the energy conservation principle, the kinetic energy of he skateboarder comes from the conversion of the potential energy, such that the total energy is the same at any particular point on the ramp.

<h2>Answers:</h2><h2 /><h2>a) Arrow B</h2><h2>b) Arrow E</h2>

Explanation:

Refraction is a phenomenon in which a wave (the light in this case) bends or changes its direction <u>when passing through a medium with a refractive index different from the other medium.</u>  Where the Refractive index is a number that describes how fast light propagates through a medium or material.  

According to this, if we observe the rays  A an D passing throgh the biconcave lens, we will have two mediums:

1) The air

2)The material of the biconcave lens

This two mediums have different refractive indexes, hence the rays will change the direction.

-For the incident ray A, the corresponding refractive ray is B, because is the ray that bends after passing throgh the lens

-For the incident ray D, the refracted ray is E following the same principle.

What is the change in internal energy of the system (∆U) in a process in which 10 kJ of heat energy is absorbed by the system an
Trava [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

According to first law of thermodynamics:

∆U= q + w

= 10kj+(-70kJ)

-60kJ

, w = + 70 kJ

(work done on the system is positive)

q = -10kJ ( heat is given out, so negative)

∆U = -10 + (+70) = +60 kJ

Thus, the internal energy of the system decreases by 60 kJ.

If two point masses 1kg &amp; 4kg are seperated by a distance of 2m. Magnitude of gravitational force exerted by 1kg on 4kg is ?
Aliun [14]

Answer:

  • F = G Newtons

Explanation:

Given:

  • Mass of 1st body = 1\:kg
  • Mass of 2nd body = 4\:kg

To Find:

  • Magnitude of gravitational force

Solution:

Here, we have a formula

  • F=\dfrac{G.M_{1}.M_{2}}{r^{2}}

<u>Substituting the values</u>

\implies\:\:F = \dfrac{G(1)(4)}{2^{2}}

\implies\:\:F = \dfrac{4G}{4}

\implies\:\:F = \dfrac{\cancel{4}G}{\cancel{4}}

\implies\:\:\red{F = G}

Know More:

The applied formula for the above solution is

{\boxed{F_{G}=\dfrac{G.M_{1}.M_{2}}{r^{2}}}}

where,

  • F_{G} = Gravitational force
  • G = Gravitational constant
  • M_{1} = mass of 1st body
  • M_{2} = mass of 2nd body
  • r = distance between two bodies
