As a pendulum swings from its highest to lowest position, what happens to its kinetic and potential energy?

Flash floods can cause vehicles to float and fill with water, trapping and drowning people. while especially dangerous at night

almond37 [142]

Answer:

Option (C)

Explanation:

Flash flood refers to the sudden flood that occurs in a particular area due to the heavy and excessive amount of rainfall, often accompanied by thunderstorms within a few hours. It releases a huge amount of water due to the failure of natural levee as well dam. They are very devastating. During flash flood, the water exerts a massive force which can make vehicles float over water. The six inches of water that flows over an area has the capacity to lift the tyres of small vehicles and carry hem further away.

Thus, the correct answer is option (C).

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

A. Power generated by meteor = 892857.14 Watts

Yes. It is obvious that the large amount of power generated accounts for the glowing trail of the meteor.

B. Workdone = 981000 J

Power required = 19620 Watts

Note: The question is incomplete. A similar complete question is given below:

A shooting star is actually the track of a meteor, typically a small chunk of debris from a comet that has entered the earth's atmosphere. As the drag force slows the meteor down, its kinetic energy is converted to thermal energy, leaving a glowing trail across the sky. A typical meteor has a surprisingly small mass, but what it lacks in size it makes up for in speed. Assume that a meteor has a mass of 1.5 g and is moving at an impressive 50 km/s, both typical values. What power is generated if the meteor slows down over a typical 2.1 s? Can you see how this tiny object can make a glowing trail that can be seen hundreds of kilometers away? 61. a. How much work does an elevator motor do to lift a 1000 kg elevator a height of 100 m at a constant speed? b. How much power must the motor supply to do this in 50 s at constant speed?

Explanation:

A. Power = workdone / time taken

Workdone = Kinetic energy of the meteor

Kinetic energy = mass × velocity² / 2

Mass of meteor = 1.5 g = 0.0015 kg;

Velocity of meteor = 50 km/s = 50000 m/s

Kinetic energy = 0.0015 × (50000)² / 2 = 1875000 J

Power generated = 1875000/2.1 = 892857.14 Watts

Yes. It is obvious that the large amount of power generated accounts for the glowing trail of the meteor.

B. Work done by elevator against gravity = mass × acceleration due to gravity × height

Work done = 1000 kg × 9.81 m/s² × 100 m

Workdone = 981000 J

Power required = workdone / time

Power = 981000 J / 50 s

Power required = 19620 Watts

Therefore, the motor must supply a power of 19620 Watts in order to lift a 1000 kg to a height of 100 m at a constant speed in 50 seconds.

What is the effect of load resistor on ripple factor

Zolol [24]

ripple factor can be reduced by increasing the value of the load resistor (which means reducing the load of the circuit)

How would i solve these problems, nobody in my class understands and there is a substitute

DiKsa [7]

1) X-component: 568.5 N, Y-component: 511.9 N

2) The horizontal force is 86.6 N and the resulting acceleration is $0.87 m/s^2$

Explanation:

1)

In this first part of the problem, we have to resolve the force into its two components, along the x and the y direction.

The two components are given by:

$F_x = F cos \theta\\F_y = F sin \theta$

where

F = 765 N is the magnitude of the force

$\theta=42.0^{\circ}$ is the angle of the force with the horizontal

Substituting, we find:

Horizontal component: $F_x = (765)(cos 42.0^{\circ})=568.5 N$
Vertical component: $F_y = (765)(sin 42.0^{\circ})=511.9 N$

2)

First of all, we have to find the horizontal component of the pulling force, which is given by

$F_x = F cos \theta$

where

F = 100 N is the magnitude of the pulling force

$\theta=30.0^{\circ}$ is the direction of the force with the horizontal

Substituting,

$F_x = (100)(cos 30^{\circ})=86.6 N$

Now we can find the acceleration of the wagon by using Newton's second law:

$F_x = ma_x$

where

$F_x = 86.6 N$ is the net force in the horizontal direction

m = 100 kg is the mass of the wagon

$a_x$ is the acceleration in the horizontal direction

Solving for $a_x$ , we find

$a_x = \frac{F_x}{m}=\frac{86.6}{100}=0.87 m/s^2$

1. Monique is nine weeks into her pregnancy, and she had an appointment with her doc tor today. She is very happy and excited be

djyliett [7]

Since Monique is able to hear the heartbeats of her baby, it's the Fetus stage of pregnancy when the body starts developing inside the womb.

Explanation:

The Fetus Stage of Pregnancy:

Once the 4th-7th weeks of pregnancy passed, the embryo start developing inside the womb of the mother and the respective symptoms reflects. This is the Fetus stage of pregnancy which occur in approximately around the 10th week of pregnancy.

In the fetus stage, the human body begins to develop inside the womb. In this phase, most of the organs are developed and the limbs starts to form firmly. The Fetus stage comes after the Embryo stage but usually, the transition varies according to the growth and circumstances of the atmosphere.

But, what is certain is that the mother can feel the impulse and heartbeats of the baby inside her womb which is an exciting and memorable feeling for her.
