Answer: D Although the total energy remains constant, nonrenewable fuels convert chemical energy into forms that are difficult or impossible to use again.
Explanation:
The first law of thermodynamics says that energy can neither be created nor destroyed; energy can only be transferred or changed from one form to another.
The correct answer is C) towards the center of the circle.
Although the object is moving at a constant speed it is constantly accelerating due to the constant change in direction as it describes the circular path. This causes a constant change in velocity as velocity is a vector quantity.
For the object to maintain the circular path there has to be centripetal force acting on the object and this centripetal force is directed towards the center of the circle.
GPE=mgh
m= 12.5kg
g= 9.81 always
h=?
568=12.5*9.81*h
Solve for h
You will get 4.63m
Answer:
8.13secs
Explanation:
From the question weal are given
Height H =324m
Required
time it takes to drop t
Using the equation of motion
H = ut + 1/2gt²
Substitute the given values
324 = 0(t)+1/2(9.8)t²
324 = 1/2(9.8)t²
324 = 4.9t²
t² =324/4.9
t² = 66.12
t = √66.12
t = 8.13secs
Hence the time taken to drop is 8.13secs
Average speed = (total distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)
Total distance covered = (9.5m + 3.5m + 15m) = 28 meters
Time to cover the distance = 43 seconds
Average speed = (28 meters) / (43 seconds)
Average speed = 0.65 meters/second
