Water flowing over a tall cliff best shows a change from potential to kinetic energy

Explanation:

At the top of the cliff, the water has potential energy – intrinsic energy of the water due to its relative position of high elevation. The water has the ability to do work. As the water starts falling down the cliff by gravity, this potential energy is converted to kinetic energy – intrinsic energy due to its motion. The kinetic energy can be harnessed to turn dynamo turbines that convert the kinetic energy to electric energy – this is how hydroelectric power is produced.

(4) A meeting is being attended by Raman

= when the last of the guests left, I went back into the hall to look for my mobile phone that I had kept on the table, I found that my mobile phone was not there. I felt freaked and I asked to every member of my family about my phone, but nobody had idea about that. then there was a phone call made by my uncle to my father, that his son had taken the mobile by mistake. After sometime, My uncle came to return my mobile. Then I took a sigh of relief .

The cheetah is considered the fastest running animal in the world. Cheetahs can accelerate to a speed of 21.7 m/s in 2.50 s and

viktelen [127]

Answer:

1) 64.2 mi/h

2) 3.31 seconds

3) 47.5 m

4) 5.26 seconds

Explanation:

t = Time taken = 2.5 s

u = Initial velocity = 0 m/s

v = Final velocity = 21.7 m/s

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

1) Top speed = 28.7 m/s

1 mile = 1609.344 m

$1\ m=\frac{1}{1609.344}\ miles$

1 hour = 60×60 seconds

$1\ s=\frac{1}{3600}\ hours$

$28.7\ m/s=\frac{\frac{28.7}{1609.344}}{\frac{1}{3600}}=64.2\ mi/h$

Top speed of the cheetah is 64.2 mi/h

Equation of motion

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v-u}{t}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{21.7-0}{2.5}\\\Rightarrow a=8.68\ m/s^2$

Acceleration of the cheetah is 8.68 m/s²

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{v-u}{a}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{28.7-0}{8.68}\\\Rightarrow t=3.31\ s$

It takes a cheetah 3.31 seconds to reach its top speed.

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{28.7^2-0^2}{2\times 8.68}\\\Rightarrow s=47.5\ m$

It travels 47.5 m in that time

4) When s = 120 m

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 120=0\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times 8.68\times t^2\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{\frac{120\times 2}{8.68}}\\\Rightarrow t=5.26\ s$

The time it takes the cheetah to reach a rabbit is 120 m is 5.26 seconds

The velocity of a passenger relative to a boat is -vpb. The velocity of the boat relative to the river it is moving on is vbr. T

RideAnS [48]

Answer:

vps = vbr + vrs - vpb

Explanation:

If the passenger were at rest, his speed relative to the shore will be identical to the boat's, as follows:
vps = vbr + vrs
As he is moving in a direction opposite to the boat's, his velocity relative to the shore must be less than if he were at rest, in the same quantity that he was moving opposite to the boat, as follows:
vps = vbr+ vrs -vpb

A driver in a car traveling at a speed of 21.8m/s sees a cat 101 m away on the road. How long will it take for the car to accele

kobusy [5.1K]

The acceleration of the car will be needed in order to calculate the time. It is important to consider that the final speed is equal to zero:

$v^2 = v_0^2 + 2ad\ \to\ a = \frac{-v_0^2}{2d} = -\frac{21.8^2\ m^2/s^2}{2\cdot 99\ m} = -2.4\frac{m}{s^2}$

We can clear time in the speed equation:

$v = v_0 + at\ \to\ t = \frac{-v_0}{a} = \frac{-21.8\ m/s}{-2.4\ m/s^2} = \bf 9.08\ s$

If you find some mistake in my English, please tell me know.

What is the formula for calculating the efficiency of a heat engine?

Anton [14]

Answer:

Efficiency = StartFraction T Subscript h Baseline minus T Subscript C Baseline over T Subscript h Baseline EndFraction times 100. Efficiency equals T Subscript c Baseline minus T Subscript h Baseline over T Subscript h Baseline all times 100.
