Answer: The correct answer is option C.

Explanation:

Electrical energy is an energy possessed by the electrical charges in motion.

Heat energy is an energy due to the motion of particles like atoms, ions etc in solid , liquid and gases .

In an electric kettle:

Electric energy → Heat energy   (Law of conservation Energy)

In an electric kettle electric energy is changing into heat energy which results in heating up of water present in side it.The electric energy from the power source is transforming into heat energy which gets transferred to water molecules.

Hence, the correct answer is option C.

1. A 2000kg truck at rest accelerates to 45m/s in 7 seconds. What is its change in kinetic energy?
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

2025000 J

Explanation:

The formula for kinetic energy is KE=.5(m)(v²).  

The initial kinetic energy is 0 because it is at rest.  .5(m)(0) = 0.

To calculate the final kinetic energy, use the kinetic energy equation. KE = .5(2000)(45²) = 2025000 J.

To find the change in kinetic energy, you do KE(f) - KE(i).  2025000-0 = 2025000 J.

Jose is batting for the home team when he hits a foul ball that rises straight up over home plate. A fan in the stands notices t
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

<h3><em>28.01m/s.</em></h3>

Explanation:

Given maximum height reached by the ball as H = 40 metres

Since the ball rises straight up when hit by a ball, then the angle of launch will be perpendicular to the ground and that is 90°.

To determine the upward speed of the ball in meters per second after it got struck by the bat, we will use the formula for calculating the maximum height according to projectile motion;

Maximum Height H = \frac{u^2sin^2\theta}{2g} where;

u is the speed of the ball

\theta is the angle of launch

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81m/s²

Substituting the given parameters into the formula;

40 = \frac{u^2sin^2(90)}{2(9.81)}\\ \\40 = \frac{u^2}{2(9.81)}\\ \\40 = \frac{u^2}{19.62} \\cross\ multiply\\\\u^2 = 40*19.62\\u^2 = 784.8\\u = \sqrt{784.8}\\ u = 28.01 m/s

<em>Hence the upward speed of the ball in meters per second after it got struck by the bat is 28.01m/s.</em>

What potential difference is needed to stop an electron that has an initial velocity v=6.0
Assoli18 [71]

Formula for kinetic energy of an object:

KE = 0.5mv²

m is the mass and v is the velocity.

Formula for the work done on a charged object by moving it through a potential difference:

W = ΔVq

ΔV is the potential difference and q is the charge of the object.

To find the potential difference needed to decelerate an electron to rest, set the work done on the electron equal to its kinetic energy:

W = KE

Substitute W = ΔVq and KE = 0.5mv²

ΔVq = 0.5mv²

Given values:

q = 1.6×10⁻¹⁹C

m = 9.11×10⁻³¹kg

v = 6.0m/s

Plug in the given values and solve for ΔV

ΔV×1.6×10⁻¹⁹ = 0.5×9.11×10⁻³¹×6.0²

ΔV = 1.02×10⁻¹⁰V
