sdas [7]

Answer:

Potential energy plus kinetic energy equals mechanical energy because mechanical energy is basically just all of an object's energy, it's just two kinds of energy. The potential is stored inside and kinetic is being used. Both of those together is the total amount of the objects energy, which is the mechanical energy.

Object A is 71 degrees and object B is 75 degrees how will thermal energy flow
Tasya [4]

Given :

Object A is 71 degrees and object B is 75 degrees .

To Find :

How will thermal energy flow.

Solution :

We know, by law of thermodynamics thermal energy will flow from higher temperature to lower temperature.

So, in the given question energy will flow from object B from object A.

Hence, this is the required solution.

A rocket blasts off vertically from rest on the launch pad with a constant upward acceleration of 2.30 m/s2. At 20.0 s after bla
lesya [120]

Answer:

Explanation:

v = u +at

u = 0

a = 2.3 m /s²

t = 20 s

v = 2.3 x 20

= 46 m /s

Distance covered under acceleration of 2.3 m/s²

s = ut + 1/2 at²

= 0 + .5 x 2.3 x 20²

= 460 m

After that it moves under free fall ie g acts on it downwards .

v² = u² - 2gh , h is height moved by it under free fall

0 = 46² - 2 x 9.8 h

h = 107.96 m

Total height attained

= 460 + 107.96

= 567.96 m

b ) At its highest point ,it stops so  its velocity = 0

c ) rocket's acceleration at its highest point = g = 9.8 downwards .

At highest  point , it is undergoing free fall so its acceleration  = g
