Answer: B

Explanation:

Given that an object of mass 2 kg starts from rest and is allowed to slide down a frictionless incline so that its height changes by 20 m.

The parameters given from the question are:

Mass M = 2kg

Height h = 20m

Let g = 9.8m/s^2

At the bottom of the incline plane, the object will experience maximum kinetic energy.

From conservative of energy, maximum K.K.E = maximum P.E

Maximum P.E = mgh

Maximum P.E = 2 × 9.8 × 20 = 392 J

But

K.E = 1/2mv^2

Substitute the values of energy and mass into the formula

392 = 1/2 × 2 × V^2

V^2 = 392

V = sqrt( 392 )

V = 19.8 m/s

V = 20 m/s approximately

What causes the lunar phases we see on Earth? Give a few examples of different phases of the moon and what each looks like.

Aliun [14]

What causes us to see the moon is the Sun. The moon is usually above or below the Earth. So light from the Sun hits the moon and the moon reflects the light back. Some of it to Earth. For example, when a new moon happens the moon is in between the Sun and the Earth

SUN --------LIGHT-----------> MOON EARTH

What happens there is that none of the light gets reflected off the part of the moon that we can see from the ground, giving the illusion that it is not there.

During a full moon the Earth is in between the Sun and moon

SUN -------LIGHT---------> EARTH MOON

Now, nearly all the light from the Sun gets reflected off the surface of the moon and to us on Earth

A total of 2.0x 1013 electrons pass a given point in a wire in 15s. what is the current in the wire

timurjin [86]

The current in a wire is defined as the amount of charge that passes a given point of the wire in a given time:
$I= \frac{Q}{\Delta t}$
where Q is the charge and $\Delta t$ is the time interval.

Since one electron has a charge of $q=1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C$ , the total charge of $2.0 \cdot 10^{13}$ electrons is
$Q=qN=(1.6 \cdot 10^{-19} C)(2.0 \cdot 10^{13} )=3.2 \cdot 10^{-6} C$

And since the time interval is $\Delta t=15 s$ , the current in the wire is
$I= \frac{Q}{\Delta t}= \frac{3.2 \cdot 10^{-6} C}{15 s}=2.1 \cdot 10^{-7}A$
