Write the law of conservation of energy. How does it apply to eating and exercising?
zzz [600]
The Law of Conservation of energy states that the total energy of an isolated system remains constant-it is said to be the conserved over time. It applies by us burning calories because humans can lose or gain weight.

Please help with these physics problems 1. A soccer ball is dropped from the top of a building. It takes 5.8 seconds to fall to
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

1.) h = 164.8 m

2.) U = 49.1 m/s

3.) t = 1.43 seconds

Explanation:

1.) A soccer ball is dropped from the top of a building. It takes 5.8 seconds to fall to the ground. The height of the building is...? 

Since the soccer ball is dropped from the building, the initial velocity U will be equal to zero

Using second equation of motion

h = Ut + 1/2gt^2

Substitutes the time into the formula

h = 1/2 × 9.8 × 5.8^2

h = 164.8 m

2. The Falcon 9 launches to a height of 123 meters. What is its vertical initial velocity?

At maximum height final velocity = 0

Using the third law of motion

V^2 = U^2 - 2gH

0 = U^2 - 2 × 9.8 × 123

U^2 = 2410.8

U = 49.1 m/s

3. An apple falls from rest off a 10.m m tree. How long will it take before it hits the ground?

Since the apple fall from rest, the initial velocity U will be equal to zero

Using the second equation of motion,

h = Ut + 1/2gt^2

substitute all the parameters into the formula

10 = 1/2 × 9.8 × t^2

10 = 4.9t^2

t^2 = 10/4.9

t^2 = 2.04

t = 1.43 seconds

likoan [24]

Answer: D. places where the magnetic field strength is either greater or less than the expected strength.

Explanation:

Magnetic anomaly refers to the change in the magnitude of the magnetic field of the Eatth with respect to the location's expected value.

Magnetic anomalies are places where the magnetic field strength is either greater or less than the expected strength. Therefore, the correct option is D.

Approximately how many atoms are there along a 9.5 cm line
uranmaximum [27]
First convert 5.5 cm to meters.

(5.5 cm / 1) x (m / 100 cm) = 0.055 m

A typical atom is about 1.0E-10 m in diameter; thus:

0.055 m / 1.0E-10 m = 5.5E8 atoms or 550,000,000 end-to-end atoms in 5.5 cm

Anne releases a stone from a height of 2 meters. She measures the kinetic energy of the stone at 9.8 joules at the exact point i
insens350 [35]
A. 0.5kg

To get this answer you need to follow the equation of KE=0.5*mv^2 
But we don't have the m part in the equation. So just plug in the numbers to see which works best, though I can tell you before we do that the answer would be a. 

As you may know, gravity, is a force of 9.8 m/s. And we want to get 9.8 Joules. So if we take a half a kg stone, release it at one meter, we get half of the normal gravity pull, 4.90 Joules. That means if we take half a kg stone and drop it at a doubled height, we get 9.8 Joules.

That is also to say that if we have a 1kg stone and drop it at one meter you will get the normal pull of gravity in Joules, 9.8J. 

Be careful though, this does not mean if you drop a 1kg stone and a .5 kg stone the 1kg will hit first. This simply means that the 1kg stone will have twice the Joules that the .5kg stone has.
