Answer:

When a metal is heated, the free electrons gain

c. kinetic energy

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is an energy possessed  by an object  due to its movement.

Metals contain free electrons  which are called delocalised electrons, they move freely, when a metal is heated they vibrate and  move more quickly - this electrons gain kinetic energy from the excess vibrating ions. They move around thereby transferring some of their energy to the nearby particles

A bowling ball of mass 5 kg rolls down a slick ramp 20 meters long at a 30 degree angle to the horizontal. What is the work done
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

The work done by gravity during the roll is 490.6 J

Explanation:

The work (W) is:

W = F*d

<em>Where</em>:

F: is the force

d: is the displacement = 20 m

The force is equal to the weight (W) in the x component:

F = W_{x} = mgsin(\theta)

<em>Where:</em>

m: is the mass of the bowling ball = 5 kg

g: is the gravity = 9.81 m/s²    

θ: is the degree angle to the horizontal = 30°        

F = mgsin(\theta) = 5 kg*9.81 m/s^{2}*sin(30) = 24.53 N    

Now, we can find the work:

W = F*d = 24.53 N*20 m = 490.6 J      

Therefore, the work done by gravity during the roll is 490.6 J.

I hope it helps you!

Acceleration of a free-falling object in a frictionless environment increases as a function of time.
Digiron [165]

A free-falling object is an object moving under the effect of gravitational forces alone

The correct option to select for the True or False question is False

The reason the above selected option is correct is as follows:

According to Newton's second law of motion, we have;

Force = Mass × Acceleration

The force of gravity is F_{g} =G \cdot \dfrac{M \cdot m}{r^{2}}

Where;

G \cdot \dfrac{M }{r^{2}} = Acceleration \ due \ to \ gravity , \ g \approx 9.81 m/s^2

m  = The mass of the object

∴ The force acting on an object in free fall, F_g = m × g

Therefore the acceleration of an object in free fall is the constant acceleration due to gravity, and it therefore, does not change with time

The correct option for the question, acceleration of a free-falling object in a frictionless environment increases as a function of time is <u>False</u>

<u></u>
