The equation for kinetic energy is,

Ke = (1/2)mv^2.

You're given a kinetic energy of 790 joules, and a speed of 1.6 m/s. Plugging these values into the equation, we get,

790 = (1/2)(1.6)^2(m).

Solving for m, we get,

m = (790)/(0.5(1.6)^2).

I'll let you crunch out those numbers for yourself :D

If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Hope this helps!

What are electrons and how are they involved in creating and electric current?
Artist 52 [7]
Electrons are a stable sub atomic particle that has a negative charge and is found in all atoms and is the main carrier of electricity through solids.

In a metal, some of the electrons can escape from the atoms and are free to move around inside the metal. These electrons are referred to as 'conduction electrons'. 

<span>A current is a flow of charge. In metal a current is the flow of the conduction electrons through the metal. This can occur when connected to battery for example: The battery pumps the conduction electrons around the circuit. </span>

A source at rest emits light of wavelength 500 nm. When it is moving at 0.90c toward an observer, the observer detects light of
Vesna [10]

Answer:

The observer detects light of wavelength is 115 nm.

(b) is correct option

Explanation:

Given that,

Wavelength of source = 500 nm

Velocity = 0.90 c

We need to calculate the wavelength of observer

Using Doppler effect

\lambda_{o}=\sqrt{\dfrac{1-\beta}{1+\beta}}\lambda_{s}

Where, \beta=\dfrac{c}{v}

\lambda_{o}=\sqrt{\dfrac{c-0.90c}{c+0.90c}}\times500\times10^{-9}

\lambda_{o}=115\ nm

Hence, The observer detects light of wavelength is 115 nm.

Which telescope would be better viewing a faint, distant star? Why?
grin007 [14]
Reflecting telescope. Reflecting telescopes tend to have larger objective (due to the use of mirrors, mirrors are a lot cheaper than lenses) and have the ability to collect more light, while refracting telescopes are limited to objective lenses with smaller diameters due to their structural limitations (chromatic abbreviation, for example). Therefore, reflecting telescopes should be better at viewing faint distant stars

The total momentum of two marbles before a collision is 0.06 kg-m / s. no outside forces act on the marbles. what is the total m
SpyIntel [72]
Hi my friend, since momentum is always conserved without external forces, the momentum after the collosion will still be 0.06 kg*m/s. Hope it helps☺

Complete the sentences to describe the convection experiment.
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

The<u> heat transfer </u>model showed convection.

In the convection model, the red water on the bottom of the beaker <u>is hot</u>

This means that the water at the bottom of the beaker was <u> less dense than </u>the water near the top of the beaker.

Explanation:

<em>Convection</em> is the transference of heat energy by the movement (translation) of the particles of fluid (liquids or gases).

When the water on the bottom of the beaker is heated, it expands and becomes less dense.

The water near the top of the beaker is cold which makes it denser than the water at the bottom of the beaker.

Thus, the hot water from the bottom of the beaker will ascend  toward the top of the beaker, while the cold water on top will descend toward the bottom. As long, as there is a difference of temperature between the water on the bottom and on top of the beaker, there will be a continuous movement of the particles: cold particles from the top replace hot particles from the bottom that ascend, and when the cold particles are heated they will ascend and will be replaced by new cold particles. This continuous translation of hot and cold particles in fluids is the model of heat transfer by convection.
