Answer: 40 Joules

Explanation: Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of its motion.

Kinetic energy depends on the mass and speed of the object.

K.E=\frac{1}{2}\times mv^2

m= mass of canoe = 20 kg

v= speed of canoe = 2 m/s

K.E=\frac{1}{2}\times 20kg\times (2m/s)^2

K.E=40kgm^2s^-{2}=40Joules

(1kgm^2s^{-2}= 1Joule)

With regard to pneumatic mechanical devices which afford protection against the formation of ice, which of the following stateme
Andreyy89

Answer:

the answer is The pneumatic mechanical device can only be used as a de-icing device.

Explanation:

An ice protection system prevents the formation of ice, or enables the aircraft to shed the ice before it can grow to a dangerous thickness. Ice protection systems are designed to keep atmospheric ice from accumulating on aircraft surfaces such as wings, propellers and engine intakes.

The pneumatic mechanical device is the Pneumatic deicing boots which was invented by the Goodrich Corporation in 1923. The pneumatic boot is usually made of layers of rubber, with one or more air chambers between the layers.

Any design which utilizes either a mechanical means of breaking the bond of ice to the surface, or which operates on a periodic cycle, is necessarily a de-ice system.

If 34.7 g of O2 reacts with iron to form 79.34 g of iron oxide, how much iron was used in the reaction?
zhuklara [117]

Answer: B. 44.64 g

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

Mass of reactants = mass of iron + mass of oxygen = mass of iron + 34.7 g

Mass of product = mass of iron oxide = 79.34 g

As Mass of reactants = Mass of product

mass of iron + 34.7 g = 79.34 g

mass of iron = 44.64 g

Thus 44.64 g of iron was used in the reaction

Note that the simulation allows you to also display the force of the smaller moon
Lelu [443]

the force that the planet exerts on the moon is equal to the force that the moon exerts on the planet

Explanation:

In this problem we are analzying the gravitational force acting between a planet and its moon.

The magnitude of the gravitational attraction between two objects is given by

F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}

where :

G=6.67\cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1}s^{-2} is the gravitational constant

m1, m2 are the masses of the two objects

r is the separation between them

In this problem, we are considering a planet and its moon. According to Newton's third law of motion,

"When an object A exerts a force (action force) on an object B, then object B exerts an equal and opposite force (reaction force) on object A"

If we apply this law to this situation, this means that the force that the planet exerts on the moon is equal to the force that the moon exerts on the planet.

Which of the following statements describes a compound machine?
ASHA 777 [7]
From the word compound, the compound machine is already a combination of two or more types of simple machine. Thus, the answer is letter C. Because of its complexity, it is able to perform several other functions than a simple one.
