I Think It's C because that's what nuclear plants let off which means its a waste.

The answer is A because it's non-renewable, does NOT release nuclear waste and can be used anytime

Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

2.77287\times 10^{15}\ m

Explanation:

P = Power = 50 kW

n = Number of photons per second

h = Planck's constant = 6.626\times 10^{-34}\ m^2kg/s

\nu = Frequency = 781 kHz

r = Distance at which the photon intensity is i = 1 photon/m²

Power is given by

P=nh\nu\\\Rightarrow n=\dfrac{P}{h\nu}\\\Rightarrow n=\dfrac{50000}{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 781000}\\\Rightarrow n=9.66201\times 10^{31}\ photons/s

Photon intensity is given by

i=\dfrac{n}{4\pi r^2}\\\Rightarrow 1=\dfrac{9.66201\times 10^{31}}{4\pi r^2}\\\Rightarrow r=\sqrt{\dfrac{9.66201\times 10^{31}}{4\pi}}\\\Rightarrow r=2.77287\times 10^{15}\ m

The distance is 2.77287\times 10^{15}\ m

Formulating a Hypothesis: Part I Since the investigative question has two variables, you need to focus on each one separately. T
Taya2010 [7]

Explanation:

The kinetic energy is said to be possessed due to the motion of the object. An object at rest will have zero kinetic energy and if it is in motion it will have some kinetic energy. The mathematical expression for kinetic energy is given by :

E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times m\times v^2...........(1)

Where

m is the mass of the object

v is the velocity of object

It is clear form expression (1) that the kinetic energy of the object is directly proportional to the mass and velocity of an object.

So, the hypothesis for the mass and kinetic energy can be written as " when the mass of the object increases, its kinetic energy also increases because there exists a direct relationship between the mass and the kinetic energy of the object".

On a straight road, a car speeds up at a constant rate from rest to 20 m/s over a 5 second interval and a truck slows at a const
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

a)

Explanation:

  • Since the car speeds up at a constant rate, we can use the kinematic equation for distance (assuming that the initial position is x=0, and choosing t₀ =0), as follows:

        x_{fc} = v_{o}*t + \frac{1}{2}*a*t^{2}   (1)

  • Since the car starts from rest, v₀ =0.
  • We know the value of t = 5 sec., but we need to find the value of a.
  • Applying the definition of acceleration, as the rate of change of velocity with respect to time, and remembering that v₀ = 0 and t₀ =0, we can solve for a, as follows:

       a_{c} =\frac{v_{fc}}{t} = \frac{20m/s}{5s} = 4 m/s2  (2)

  • Replacing a and t in (1):

       x_{fc} = v_{o}*t + \frac{1}{2}*a*t^{2}  = \frac{1}{2}*a*t^{2} = \frac{1}{2}* 4 m/s2*(5s)^{2} = 50.0 m.  (3)

  • Now, if the truck slows down at a constant rate also, we can use (1) again, noting that v₀ is not equal to zero anymore.
  • Since we have the values of vf (it's zero because the truck stops), v₀, and t, we can find the new value of a, as follows:

       a_{t} =\frac{-v_{to}}{t} = \frac{-20m/s}{10s} = -2 m/s2  (4)

  • Replacing v₀, at and t in (1), we have:

       x_{ft} = 20m/s*10.0s + \frac{1}{2}*(-2 m/s2)*(10.0s)^{2} = 200m -100m = 100.0m   (5)

  • Therefore, as the truck travels twice as far as the car, the right answer is a).

The bob of a pendulum swings back and forth with a total mechanical energy of 300 J. What is the kinetic energy of the bob when
zhenek [66]

at the lowest point in the trajector, the kinetic energy of the bob is 300 J.

Explanation:

The total mechanical energy of the bob at any point of its motion is given by

E=KE+PE

Where

KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2 is the kinetic energy, where

m is the mass of the bob

v is its speed

PE=mgh is the gravitational potential energy, where

g is the acceleration of gravity

h is the height of the bob, measured with respect to the lowest point of the trajector

In absence of friction, the total mechanical energy E remains constant. So we have:

- When the bob swings upward, the PE increases (because h increases) and the KE decreases (so the speed decreases). At the highest point in the trajector, the speed of the bob is zero (v=0), so its KE is also zero and all the mechanical energy is potential energy: U = 300 J

- When the bob swings downward, the PE decreases (because h decreases) and the KE increases (so the speed increases). At the lowest point in the trajectory, the height has become zero (h=0), so the PE is zero and all the mechanical energy is kinetic energy: KE = 300 J

Therefore, at the lowest point in the trajector, the kinetic energy of the bob is 300 J.
