Which statement describes the kinetic energy of a particle?

Physics

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!

What is the relationship between frequency ad wavelenght
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

Frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional to each other. The wave with the greatest frequency has the shortest wavelength. Twice the frequency means one-half the wavelength. For this reason, the wavelength ratio is the inverse of the frequency ratio.

erik [133]

Answer:

Initial pressure = 6 atm. Work = 0.144 J

Explanation:

You need to know the equation P1*V1=P2*V2, where P1 is the initial pressure, V1 is the initial volume, and P2 and V2 are the final pressure and volume respectively. So you can rearrange the terms and find that (1.2*0.05)/(0.01) = initial pressure = 6 atm. The work done by the system can be obtained calculating the are under the curve, so it is 0.144J

Why does the closed top of a convertible bulge when the car is riding along a highway? Why does the closed top of a convertible
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

Option D

The air pressure inside the car is greater than the pressure outside.

Explanation:

When considering airflow over and around a surface, from Bernoulli's equation, air flow regions with higher velocity have a lower pressure, and regions with lower velocity have a higher pressure.

The air outside the convertible is moving faster than the air inside the convertible. This leads to a higher pressure zone just below the surface of the roof (inside the car) causing the roof of the convertible to bulge upwards

A race car has a centripetal acceleration of 15.625 m/s2 as it goes around a curve. If the curve is a circle with radius 40 m, w
myrzilka [38]
The centripetal acceleration is given by
a_c =  \frac{v^2}{r}
where v is the tangential speed and r the radius of the circular orbit.

For the car in this problem, a_c = 15.625 m/s^2 and r=40 m, so we can re-arrange the previous equation to find the velocity of the car:
v= \sqrt{a_c r}= \sqrt{(15.625 m/s^2)(40 m)}=25 m/s
