Kinetic energy. thermal energy (a low form of energy ) is a form of kinetic energy as it is produced as a result of motion of particles either if they vibrate at their position or they move along longer paths. Motion produces friction or resistance which leads to excitation and thus the heat is produced. The higher the motion of the particles, the higher would be the thermal energy.
Answer:
The correct answer is a) The kinetic energy of the ice increases by equal amounts for equal distances.
Explanation:
The law of conservation states that the energy cannot be created nor be destroyed but can be converted from one form to another.Before the ice even starts falling we already know that it possesses energy in the form of potential energy given by P=mgh where m is the mass of the ice , g is the acceleration due to gravity and h is the height of the ice above the ground whatever that may be, since a number is not given here.As the ice falls the energy is converted from potential energy to kinetic energy. We notice one thing about the equation for the potential energy P , which is that it is not only directly proportional to h but also is linear in h as well(which is the main reason why a) is correct) which means that if the ice drops by 1 meter the potential energy it will have lost would be ΔPE=mgΔh=-mg, where Δh is the change in its height which is 1 meter here.And according to the principle of conservation of energy this energy must be converted to kinetic energy so the ΔKE=-ΔPE=mg, and this process repeats and for each meter it falls, it picks up the same amount of kinetic energy equaling mg(which is the same as the loss in PE per each meter of fall). So a 2 meter decrease in height will result in an increase in KE of 2mg, a 3 meter decrease in height will result in an increase in KE of 3mg. gain in kinetic energy only depends on the drop in height, which is true irrespective of where the ice might happen to be in its journey close to the top or the bottom. So the drop in height of lets say x at any point in the journey will result in the same increase in KE = ΔKE = mgx. Which proves part a) to be correct.
Answer:
4. B and D
Explanation:
Two points along a transverse wave (such as the one in the figure) are said to be in phase when:
- the vertical position of the two points is the same
- The oscillation of the wave is going in the same way for both points
Basically, we say that two points are in phase when they are separated by a complete cycle (one complete oscillation) of the wave.
For this wave, we see that point B and C have same displacement, but they are not in phase since in B the oscillation is going down while in C is going up.
Instead, B and D are in phase, because they are separated by one complete cycle: both points have same displacement and the oscillation is going in the same way for both of them.
The text does not specify whether the resistance R of the wire must be kept the same or not: here I assume R must be kept the same.
The relationship between the resistance and the resistivity of a wire is
where
is the resistivity
A is the cross-sectional area
R is the resistance
L is the wire length
the cross-sectional area is given by
where r is the radius of the wire. Substituting in the previous equation ,we find
For the new wire, the length L is kept the same (L'=L) while the radius is doubled (r'=2r), so the new resistivity is
Therefore, the new resistivity must be 4 times the original one.
Acceleration = ▵v/▵t
Time = d/v
Fisrt calculate time : ( 118/29 ) = 4 seconds
Then calculate acceleration
A = 29/4 = 7.25 m/s²
Now the force.
Force = mass * acceleration.
F= 1,019 * 7.25
F= 7,387 N
