Which statement describes the kinetic energy of a particle?

Physics
1 answer:
worty [1.4K]3 years ago
5 0
Kinetic energy has nothing to do with anything other than motion of the particle.
When a particle with velocity v collides another particle(suppose it is at rest for simplication), assuming that there is perfectly elastic collision between them, the velocity of particle which was at rest becomes mv/M ( assuming mass of particle in motion to be m and at rest to be M) from convervation of linear momentum. And all this transfer of energy happens in a fraction of seconds which is not visible to naked eyes.

Hence 1st option is correct!

The children at the local park think the slide is too slow. There is too much fiction. What could you do to decrease the amount
igor_vitrenko [27]
In order to decrease the friction on the slide,
we could try some of these:

-- Install a drippy pipe across the top that keeps continuously
dripping olive oil on the top end of the slide.  The oil oozes
down the slide and keeps the whole slide greased.

-- Hire a man to spread a coat of butter on the whole slide,
every 30 minutes.

-- Spray the whole slide with soapy sudsy water, every 30 minutes.

-- Drill a million holes in the slide,and pump high-pressure air
through the holes.  Make the slide like an air hockey table.

-- Keep the slide very cold, and keep spraying it with a fine mist
of water.  The water freezes, and a thin coating of ice stays on
the slide.

-- Ask a local auto mechanic to please, every time he changes
the oil in somebody's car, to keep all the old oil, and once a week
to bring his old oil to the park, to spread on the slide.  If it keeps
the inside of a hot car engine slippery, it should do a great job
keeping a simple park slide slippery.

-- Keep a thousand pairs of teflon pants near the bottom of the ladder
at the beginning of the slide.  Anybody who wants to slide faster can
borrow a set of teflon pants, put them on before he uses the slide, and
return them when he's ready to go home from the park.

"4.What determines how many figures are significant in reported measurement values? What
MAXImum [283]

As the number of significant figures increases, the more accurate or precise the measurement is.

<h3>What is significant figure?</h3>

The term significant figures refers to the number of important single digits in the coefficient of an expression in scientific notation.

Significant figures are the digits in a value that are known with some degree of confidence.

The effect of reporting more or fewer figures or digits than are significant;

As the number of significant figures increases, the more accurate or precise the measurement is.

As precision of a measurement increases, so does the number of significant figures.

A test tube of length L and cross-sectional area A is submerged in water with the open end down so that the edge of the tube is
Margaret [11]

Answer:

if we measure the change in height of the gas within the had and obtain a straight line in relation to the depth we can conclude that the air complies with Boye's law.

Explanation:

The air in the tube can be considered an ideal gas,

           P V = nR T

In that case we have the tube in the air where the pressure is P1 = P_atm, then we introduce the tube to the water to a depth H

For pressure the open end of the tube is

         P₂ = P_atm + ρ g H

Let's write the gas equation for the colon

            P₁ V₁ = P₂ V₂

            P_atm V₁ = (P_atm + ρ g H) V₂

             V₂ = V₁    P_atm / (P_atm + ρ g h)

If the air obeys Boyle's law e; volume within the had must decrease due to the increase in pressure, if we measure the change in height of the gas within the had and obtain a straight line in relation to the depth we can conclude that the air complies with Boye's law.

The main assumption is that the temperature during the experiment does not change

ASAP WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST Take a piece of paper, some nails and a magnet bar, place a magnet at the centre of the paper, and spr
Zanzabum

Answer: find the answer in the explanation

Explanation:

When a magnet is placed at the centre of the paper, and the nails are sprinkled on the paper, what will happen to the nails is that, the nails will form a pattern on the paper according to the magnetic field of the bar magnetic pole.

Other phenomena you can observe are:

1.) The nails will align themselves and show some lines of forces which is equivalent to the magnetic field lines

2.) The direction of the line of forces

3.) The strength of the magnetic field pole.
