The acceleration of gravity (on Earth) is 9.8 m/s² downward.

This means that every falling object gains 9.8 m/s more downward speed
every second that it falls.

In 5 seconds of falling, it gains (5 x 9.8 m/s) = 49 m/s of downward speed.

If it was already descending at 2.0 m/s at the beginning of the 5 sec,
then at the end of the 5 sec it would be descending at

                                 (2 m/s  +  49 m/s)  =  51 m/s .

Why are chemical processes unable to produce the same amount of energy flowing out of the sun as nuclear fusion?
julsineya [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

One of the major differences between nuclear reactions and chemical reactions is that nuclear reactions involve larger amount of energy than chemical energy. <u>This is because the force between the protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom is much higher than the force of attraction between electrons and the positively charged nucleus, hence nuclear reactions involves/requires a larger amount of energy (because it's reactions involve the nucleus) than chemical reactions (because it's reactions involve the electrons)</u>.

Thus, during nuclear fusion, two light nuclei are bombarded against one another to produce a larger/heavier nuclei with the release of large amount of energy (because the forces between the protons and neutrons are much higher) unlike when two atoms/molecules are chemically combined together to form a new molecule with the rearrangement of electrons in the valence shells of the participating molecules.

The ground state energy of an electron in a one-dimensional trap with zero potential energy in the interior and infinite potenti
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

0.5 eV

Explanation:

E_1 = Initial potential energy = 2\ eV

E_2 = Final potential energy

L_1 = Initial width

L_2 = Final width = 2L_1

Energy of an electron in a one-dimensional trap is given by

E=\dfrac{n^2h^2}{8mL^2}

From the equation we get

E\propto \dfrac{1}{L^2}

So,

\dfrac{E_1}{E_2}=\dfrac{L_2^2}{L_1^2}\\\Rightarrow E_2=\dfrac{E_1L_1^2}{L_2^2}\\\Rightarrow E_2=\dfrac{2L_1^2}{4L_1^2}\\\Rightarrow E_2=0.5\ eV

The ground state energy will be 0.5 eV

Energy can do blank or bring about change
Mrac [35]

Work

Explanation:

Energy can do work or bring about change.

Energy is simply the ability to do work. When work is done, changes occur in a body.

  • There are different forms of energy and they are all related to work done.
  • When work is done on a body, a force causes a change in that body.
  • Both potential and kinetic energy are the same as work done.
  • Energy is needed to do work.
  • Work is done when a body changes energy.
