A child is swinging back and forth on a swing. Changes in her kinetic and potential energy are happening each moment. At which p

oint, or multiple points, in her swinging would each of these two types of energy be at a maximum? In one to two sentences, describe these points and which type of energy is at a maximum at each point.(2 points)

Answer:

When the person has swung all the way back (position A), the swing pauses a moment. ... As the swing continues forward, it gradually slows down. Its kinetic energy changes back to potential energy until it reaches the farthest point in its arc (position C).

The lesser the mass, the greater the acceleration for the given value of force. Why does this happen?
Tju [1.3M]
Newtons law states F=ma
so F/m=a
in addition it makes logical sense the lighter an object the easier it is to accelerate its velocity form 0 to some quantity

Imagine a negative test charge sitting at the coordinate origin (0,0). Two bunches of positive charges are located on the x-axis
Oxana [17]

Answer:

the total force vector, on test charge is points from origin to point C( 1, 1 )

Explanation:

Given the data in the question, as illustrated in the image below;

from the Image, OA = 1, OB = AC = 1

so using Pythagoras theorem

a² = b² + c²

a = √( b² + c² )

so

OC = √( OB² + AC² )

we substitute

OC = √( OA² + AC² )

OC = √( 1² + 1² )

OC = √( 1 + 1 )

OC = √2

Coordinate of C( 1, 1 )

Hence, the total force vector, on test charge is points from origin to point C( 1, 1 )

A radioisotope is place near a radiation detector, which registers 80 counts per second. Eight hours later, the detector registe
vesna_86 [32]
The isotopes half life is 2 hours

Since given the following :
time    = 8 hours × 3600s/hr = 28800 seconds
A₀ = 80 Bq as the first registration of detector counts per second
A  = 5   Bq as the registration of detector counts per second eight hours later

Using the formula:
∴ A = A₀ e^-λt    
∴ A/A₀ = e^-λt    
∴ ln (A/A₀) = -λt  
∴ λ = -ln (A/A₀) /t  = ln2 / t_{1/2}
∴ t_{1/2} = -ln2 / ln(A/A₀) (t)
∴ t_{1/2} = -ln2 / ln(5/80) (8 hours) = 2 hours
