Answer:

Explanation:

Depends on what you are measuring.

For example, in Chemistry, KE is measuring temperature. Temperature is the average of all the molecules present and their motion (using a gas as our base).

In physics, KE at beginning levels, is the speed of a moving object.

aniked [119]

Answer:

According to the travellers, Alpha Centauri is c) very slightly less than 4 light-years

Explanation:

For a stationary observer, Alpha Centauri is 4 light-years away but for an observer who is travelling close to the speed of light, Alpha Centauri is very slightly less than 4 light-years. The following expression explains why:

v = d / t

where

v is the speed of the spaceship
d is the distance
t is the time

Therefore,

d = v × t

d = (0.999 c)(4 light-years)

d = 3.996 light-years

This distance is very slightly less than 4 light-years.

What do you understand by ?efficiency of a machine is 70%

tatuchka [14]

Explanation:

The efficiency of a machine is 70% means 30% of the applied force is wasted in overcoming friction and 70% of the applied force is used to do the work

An incompressible fluid flows steadily through a pipe that has a change in diameter. The fluid speed at a location where the pip

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

The value is $v_2 = 5.53 \ m /s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told

The pipe diameter at location 1 is $d = 8.8 \ cm = \frac{8.8 }{10} = 0.88 \ m$

The velocity at location 1 is $v_1 = 2.4 \ m /s$

The diameter at location 2 is $d_2 = 5.80 \ cm = 0.58 \ m$

Generally the area at location 1 is

$A_1 = \pi * \frac{d^2}{ 2}$

=> $A_1 = \pi * \frac{0.88^2}{ 2}$

=> $A_1 = 3.142 * \frac{0.88^2}{ 2}$

=> $A_1 = 1.2166 \ m^2$

Generally the area at location 1 is

$A_2 = \pi * \frac{d_1^2}{ 2}$

=> $A_2 = \pi * \frac{0.58^2}{ 2}$

=> $A_2 = 0.528 \ m^2$

Generally from continuity equation we have that

$A_1 * v_1 = A_2 * v_2$

=> $1.2166 * 2.4 = 0.528 * v_2$

=> $v_2 = 5.53 \ m /s$

Jerry is conducting an experiment to test friction. His setup is shown below. If he wants to test the friction between different

professor190 [17]

Answer:

The correct option is D

Explanation:

This question is incomplete because of the absence of the setup which as been attached below. The setup shows/determines/tests the friction of wood (which is a block material), since Jerry wants to test the friction between different types of materials, he will have to replace the wooden block with another type of block material of choice so as to determine the friction of that also.

In order to have a comprehensive experiment, Jerry can use 4-5 different types of block material in the course of the experiment.
