Answer:

Explanation:

Let v be the linear velocity ,  ω be the angular velocity  and I be the moment of inertia of the the puck.

Kinetic energy ( linear ) = 1/2 mv²

Rotational kinetic energy = 1/2 I ω²

I = 1/2 m r² ( m and r be the mass and radius of the puck )

Rotational kinetic energy = 1/2 x1/2 m r² ω²

= 1/4 m v² ( v = r ω )

Total energy

= Kinetic energy ( linear ) + Rotational kinetic energy

= 1/2 mv² +  1/4 m v²

= 3/4 mv²

rotational K E / Total K E = 1/4 m v² / 3/4 mv²

= 1 /3

So  1 /3  rd of total energy is rotational K E.

Which statement explains how it is possible to carry books to school without changing the kinetic or potential energy of the boo
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

a. by moving the book without acceleration and keeping the height of the book constant

Explanation:

FOR CONSTANT KINETIC ENERGY:

The kinetic energy of a body depends upon its speed according to its formula:

ΔK.E = (1/2)mΔv²

So, for Δv = 0 m/s

ΔK.E = 0 J

So, for keeping kinetic energy constant, the books must be moved at constant speed without acceleration.

FOR CONSTANT POTENTIAL ENERGY:

The potential energy of a body depends upon its height according to its formula:

ΔP.E = mgΔh

So, for Δh = 0 m/s

ΔP.E = 0 J

So, for keeping potential energy constant, the books must be moved at constant height.

So, the correct option is:

<u>a. by moving the book without acceleration and keeping the height of the book constant</u>

A proton is accelerated from rest through a potential difference of 2.5 kV and then moves perpendicularly through a uniform 0.60
Bumek [7]

Answer:

1.2cm

Explanation:

V=(2ev/m)^1/2

=(2*1.6*10^19 x2500/ 1.67*10^27)^1/2

=6.2x10^5m/s

Radius of resulting path= MV/qB

= 1.67*10^-27x6.92*10^6/1.6*10^-16 x0.6

=0.012m

=1.2cm

lana [24]
Th statement represented above : In a solution, the solvent is present in the larger amount is definitely FALSE. I choose this answer as a correct one as it also could be a solutions of alcohol ot for example <span>walter which means it's not so solid and liquid respectively. Hope it's clear! Regards!</span>

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

Δh_air=714m

Explanation:

Given data

P_{1}=753mmHg\\P_{2}=690mmHg\\ p_{air}=1.2kg/m^{3}\\  g=9.8m/s^{2}

Solution

ΔP=P₁-P₂

=(ΔhHg)×pHg×g

=(Δh_air)× p_air ×g

Then

Δh_air=(pHg+ΔhHg)÷p_air

=\frac{13600*(753-690)*10^{-3} }{1.2}\\ =714m

Δh_air=714m
