Answer:
1) a block going down a slope
2) a) W = ΔU + ΔK + ΔE, b) W = ΔE, c) W = ΔK, d) ΔU = ΔK
Explanation:
In this exercise you are asked to give an example of various types of systems
1) a system where work is transformed into internal energy is a system with friction, for example a block going down a slope in this case work is done during the descent, which is transformed in part kinetic energy, in part power energy and partly internal energy that is represented by an increase in the temperature of the block.
2)
a) rolling a ball uphill
In this case we have an increase in potential energy, if there is a change in speed, the kinetic energy also increases, if the change in speed is zero, there is no change in kinetic energy and there is a change in internal energy due to the stationary rec in the point of contact
W = ΔU + ΔK + ΔE
b) in this system work is transformed into internal energy
W = ΔE
c) There is no friction here, therefore the work is transformed into kinetic energy
W = ΔK
d) if you assume that there is no friction with the air, the potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy
ΔU = ΔK
This would be an illustration of Newton's first law of motion. Law of inertia, an object moving at constant velocity will keep moving at constant velocity until a force is acted upon it. Inertia is the tendency of an object to keep moving in a particular direction resisting to change, unless a force acts upon the object.
Answer:
The earth's magnetic field protects the surface from strong electrical currents coming from the sun
Explanation:
The Earth's magnetic field called the “magnetosphere” – protects our atmosphere from the “solar wind.” That's the constant stream of charged particles flowing outward from the sun. When the magnetosphere shields the Earth from these solar particles, they get funneled toward the polar regions of our atmosphere.
The Earth's magnetic field serves to deflect most of the solar wind, whose charged particles would otherwise strip away the ozone layer that protects the Earth from harmful ultraviolet radiation. One stripping mechanism is for gas to be caught in bubbles of magnetic field, which are ripped off by solar winds.
Answer:
0.75%
Explanation:
Measured value of melting point of potassium thiocyanate = 174.5 °C
Actual value of melting point of potassium thiocyanate = 173.2 °C
<em>Error in the reading = |Experimental value - Theoretical value|</em>
<em>= |174.5 - 173.2|</em>
<em>= |1.3|</em>
<em>Percentage error = (Error / Theoretical value) × 100</em>
<em>= (1.3 / 173.2)×100</em>
<em>= 0.75 %</em>
∴ Percentage error in the reading is 0.75%
My best guess would be sun because it is bright but is surrounded by shadows on all sides.
