Answer:

They both cross the finish line with the same kinetic energy

Explanation:

Same force, same displacement, so same KE at the location of the finish line. They don’t cross the line at the same time, but that was not the question!

∆KA= (mA/2)vF,A2

∆KA=∆KBso vF,B/vF,A= (MA/MB)1/2∆KB= (mB/2)vF,B2

Lighter boat goes faster so reaches finish line 1st

The cpu might be covered by a(n) ________, which dissipates the heat generated by the chip.
FinnZ [79.3K]
I think he correct term to fill in the blank would be heat sink. The CPU might be covered by a heat sink, which dissipates the heat generated by the chip. A heat sink is any device or a substance that absorbs heat generated or from the heat reservoir. For a device, it would be one that has a fan or a peltier device in order to keep a system having a cool temperature. This is done to protect a system from any damage due to excess heat. This protect any device from overheating. A CPU surely have this device because it should be kept cool to protect the chips inside it.

What is the kinetic energy of an object that has a mass of 50.0kg and a velocity of 18 m/s?
Rom4ik [11]
<h2>Answer </h2>

The kinetic energy is 8100 J.

<u>Explanation</u>

Mass is 50.0kg and velocity is 18 m/s, the kinetic energy is:

As we know the formula of kinetic energy which is K.E = ½ ( mv ^ 2 ),

mass = m = 50.0kg

velocity = v = 18 m / s,

by putting values in the formula,

K.E = ½ ( mv ^ 2 ),

K.E = ½ ( 50kg ) . ( 18 m / s ) ^ 2

K.E = ½ ( 50kg ) . ( 324 ),

=> K.E = 1/2 ( 16200 ),

=> K.E = 16200 / 2,

=> K.E = 8100J.

Hence, the kinetic energy ( K.E ) is 8100 joule ( J ).

Location C is 0.02 m from a small sphere which has a charge of 3 nanocoulombs uniformly distributed on its surface. Location D i
kkurt [141]

The change in potential along a path from C to D due to a small charged sphere is 900 V.

Given:

Charge, Q = 3 nC = 3 × 10⁻⁹ C

Distance between the sphere and point C, r₁ = 0.02 m

Distance between the sphere and point D, r₂ = 0.06 m

Calculation:

We know that the electric potential is given as:

V = k Q/r   - (1)

where, V is the electric potential

            k is Coulomb's force constant

            Qis the charge on the  sphere

            r is the  separation distance

The electric potential at point C due to charged sphere can be given as:

V₁ = k Q/r₁

   = (9×10⁹ Nm²/C²) [(3 × 10⁻⁹ C)/(0.02 m)]

   = 1350 V

The electric potential at point D due to charged sphere can be given as:

V₂ = k Q/r₂

   = (9×10⁹ Nm²/C²) [(3 × 10⁻⁹ C)/(0.06 m)]

   = 450 V

Now, the change in potential along the path from C to D can be calculated as:

ΔV = V₂ - V₁

     = 450 V - 1350 V

     = -900 V

The negative sign indicates that the work is done against the electric field in moving the charge from C to D.

Therefore, the change in potential along a path from C to D is 900 V against the direction of the electric field.

Your GPS shows that your friend’s house is 10.0 km away. But there is a big hill between your houses and you don’t want to bike
kati45 [8]

Answer:

The value is c  = 8 \  km

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The distance of friends house from your point is a =  10 \  km

The distance of your friends street from your street is b =  6 \  km \  in the \ direction \  towards \  the  \  north

The diagram illustrating this question is shown on the first uploaded image

From the diagram we can apply by Pythagoras theorem as follows

a^2 =  b^2 +  c^2

=>     c  =  \sqrt{^2 -  b^2}

=>     c  =  \sqrt{ 10^2 -  6^2}

=>     c  = 8 \  km
