F all of the energy in a falling object's gravitational potential energy store is transferred to its kinetic energy store by the

time it lands, then the relationship shown below can be used. Which of the four options below it correctly shows how this relationship can be expressed in terms of height, h?

Answer:

The options are not shown, so let's derive the relationship.

For an object that is at a height H above the ground, and is not moving, the potential energy will be:

U = m*g*H

where m is the mass of the object, and g is the gravitational acceleration.

Now, the kinetic energy of an object can be written as:

K = (1/2)*m*v^2

where v is the velocity.

Now, when we drop the object, the potential energy begins to transform into kinetic energy, and by the conservation of the energy, by the moment that H is equal to zero (So the potential energy is zero) all the initial potential energy must now be converted into kinetic energy.

Uinitial = Kfinal.

m*g*H = (1/2)*m*v^2

v^2 = 2*g*H

v = √(2*g*H)

So we expressed the final velocity (the velocity at which the object impacts the ground) in terms of the height, H.

A runner runs 300 m at an average speed of 3.0 m/s. She then runs another 300m at an average
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

B. 4 m/s

Explanation:

v=d/t

Running for 300 m at 3 m/s takes 100 seconds and running at 300 m at 6 m/s takes 50 seconds. 100 s + 50 s = 150 s (total time). Total distance is 600 m, so 600 m/ 150 s = 4 m/s.

Two Polaroids are aligned so that the initially unpolarized light passing through them is a maximum. At what angle should one of
steposvetlana [31]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the law of Malus which describes the change in the Intensity of Light when it crosses a polarized surface.

Mathematically the expression is given as

I = I_0 cos^2\theta

Where,

I_0= Initial Intensity

I = Final Intensity after pass through the polarizer

\theta= Angle between the polarizer and the light

Since it is sought to reduce the intensity by half the relationship between the two intensities will be given as

\frac{I}{I_0} = \frac{1}{2}

Using the Malus Law we have,

I = I_0 cos^2\theta

cos^2\theta = \frac{I}{I_0}

cos^2\theta = \frac{1}{2}

\theta = cos^{-1}(\frac{1}{2})^2

\theta = 75.52\°

Angle with respect to maximum is 90-75.52 = 14.48\°
