What energy transformation occurs when a skydiver first jumps from a plane

A. Gravitational potential energy transforms into kinetic energy.


d1i1m1o1n [39]3 years ago

The skydiver jumping from a plane high up in the sky would most likely experience various energy transformation. For starters, it would undergo a very large gravitational potential energy because of its much higher elevation. After jumping, this energy would eventually transform to kinetic energy due to the force exerted by the gravity.

The speed of sound in wood is ____ the speed of sound in water.
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

greater

Explanation:

the speed of sound in steel is greater than water. the speed of sound in wood is not, In water, the particles are much closer together, and they can quickly transmit vibration energy from one particle to the next. This means that the sound wave travels over four times faster than it would in air, but it takes a lot of energy to start the vibration.

Wood is less dense and force can make a sound.

Give the relationship(s) for any pair of protons with the proper term(s). Label – your choice. A.Heterotopic B.Heterotopic, dias
Afina-wow [57]

Answer and Explanation

• Heterotopic protons are those that when substituted by the same substituent, are structurally different. They are not similar, diastereotopic or enantiotopic.

• Diastreotopic protons refers to two protons in a molecule which, if replaced by the same substituent, would generate compounds that are diastereomers. Diastereotopic groups are often, but not always, identical groups attached to the same atom in a molecule containing at least one chiral center.

For example, the two hydrogen atoms of the C3 carbon in (S)-2-bromobutane are diastereotopic (shown in the attached image). Replacement of one hydrogen atom with a bromine atom will produce (2S,3R)-2,3-dibromobutane. Replacement of the other hydrogen atom with a bromine atom will produce the diastereomer (2S,3S)-2,3-dibromobutane.

• Homotopic protons in a compound are equivalent protons. Two protons A and B are homotopic if the molecule remains the same (including stereochemically) when the protons are interchanged with some other atom (substituent) while the remaining parts of the molecule stay fixed. Homotopic atoms are always identical, in any environment.

For example, ethane, the two H atoms on C1 and C2 carbons on the same side (as shown in the attached image) are homotopic as they exhibit the phenomenon described above.

• Enantiotopic protons are two protons in a molecule which, if one or the other were replaced (by the same substituent), would generate a chiral compound. The two possible compounds resulting from that replacement would be enantiomers.

For example, in the attached image to this answer, the two hydrogen atoms attached to the second carbon in butane are enantiotopic. Replacement of one hydrogen atom with a bromine atom will produce (R)-2-bromobutane. Replacement of the other hydrogen atom with a bromine atom will produce the enantiomer (S)-2-bromobutane.

A train, traveling at a constant speed of 22.0 m/s, comes to an incline with a constant slope. While going up the incline, the t
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

123.30 m

Explanation:

Given

Speed, u = 22 m/s

acceleration, a = 1.40 m/s²

time, t = 7.30 s

From equation of motion,

                       v = u + at

where,

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

t is time  

                       V = at + U

using equation  v - u = at to get line equation for the graph of the motion of the train on the incline plane

                       V_{x} = mt + V_{o}      where m is the slope

Comparing equation (1) and (2)

V = V_{x}

a = m    

U = V_{o}

Since the train slows down with a constant acceleration of magnitude 1.40 m/s² when going up the incline plane. This implies the train is decelerating. Therefore, the train is experiencing negative acceleration.

          a = -  1.40 m/s²

Sunstituting a = -  1.40 m/s² and  u = 22 m/s

                        V_{x} = -1.40t + 22

                            V_{x} = -1.40(7.30) + 22

                             V_{x} = -10.22 + 22

                             V_{x} = 11. 78 m/s

The speed of the train at 7.30 s is 11.78 m/s.

The distance traveled after 7.30 sec on the incline is the area cover on the incline under the specific interval.

           Area of triangle +  Area of rectangle

          [\frac{1}{2} * (22 - 11.78) * (7.30)]  + [(11.78 - 0) * (7.30)]

                           = 37.303 + 85.994

                           = 123. 297 m

                           ≈ 123. 30 m

What does a worm and wheel mechanism do to torque and speed​
sergejj [24]

Answer:Explanation:

Image result for what does a worm and wheel mechanism do to torque and speed​

Like other gear arrangements, a worm drive can reduce rotational speed or transmit higher torque. ... Each full 360 degree turn of a single start worm advances the gear by one tooth. For a multi start worm the gear reduction equals the number of teeth on the gear divided by the number of starts on the worm.
