Why does a Tumbling Kelly toy return to its original position? (The oval shape is made out of plastic and lead at the bottom).

Physics

bazaltina [42]2 years ago

The toy has a state of stable equilibrium, in which the weighted lead has a tendency to stay at the bottom and overcome the moments that are produced in the upper parts. In other words, the oval structure allows the toy to oscillate and ensure that the weighted region is at the bottom, in its most stable position.

in which of the following collisions would you expect the kinetic energy to be conserved? a. a bullet passes through a block of
Scorpion4ik [409]

An elastic collision is one in which the system does not experience a net loss of kinetic energy as a result of the collision. In elastic collisions, momentum and kinetic energy are both conserved.

<h3>Explain about the Elastic Collision?</h3>

A collision between two bodies in physics is referred to as an elastic collision if their combined kinetic energy stays constant. There is no net conversion of kinetic energy into other forms, such as heat, noise, or potential energy, in an ideal, fully elastic collision

An example of an elastic collision is when two balls collide at a pool table. It is an elastic collision when you throw a ball on the ground and it bounces back into your hand because there is no net change in the kinetic energy.

If there is no kinetic energy lost in the impact, the collision is said to be perfectly elastic. A collision is considered to be inelastic if any of the kinetic energy is converted to another kind of energy during the collision.

An electron moves through a uniform electric field vector E = (2.80î + 5.20ĵ) V/m and a uniform magnetic field vector B = 0.400k
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

1.758820×10^11(-2.5i-0.8j) m/s^2

Explanation:

From the question, the parameters given are; E=(2.80i+ 5.20j) v/m, a uniform magnetic field,B= 0.400K T, acceleration, a= ??? and velocity vector, v= 11.0i metre per seconds (m/s)...

We can solve this problem using the formula below;

Ma= q[E+V × B] ---------------(1).

Note: q is negative, m= mass of electron.

Making acceleration,a the subject of the formula and substituting the parameters into equation (1);

a= -e/m × (2.5i + 5.2j +11.0i × 0.400K)

a= -e/m × (2.5i+5.2j-4.4j)

a= e/m × (-2.5i - 0.8j)

e/m= 1.758820×10^11 c/kg

Therefore, slotting in the value of charge to mass(e/m) ratio;

a= 1.7588×10^11×(-2.5i-0.8j) m/s^2

Alan and Monica tested how fertilizer X affected the growth of a plant. Alan and Monica put 100 grams of fertilizer X in pot 1.
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

D.

a control group

Explanation:

In a scientific experiment such as the one above, there is an experimental group and a control group. The experimental group is the group that receives the treatment while the control group does not receive any treatment. The control group helps the researcher to observe if the treatment had any significant effect.

In this case, it will help Alan and Monica to determine if fertilizer X actually had an effect on the plant. Therefore, the pot with o grams of fertilizer in it is the control group.

Suppose there are 100,000 atoms of a radioactive substance that has a ½ life of 10 minutes. How many atoms will remain after 40
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

c. 12,500

Explanation:

Original number of atoms = 100,000 atoms

Half- life  = 10min

Unknown:

The number of atoms that will remain after 10min  = ?

Solution:

The half - life is the time taken for half of a radioactive substance to decay by half.

    Time taken        Number of atom   half life

           10min             100000                   _

           20min             50000                    1

           30min             25000                    2

           40min              12500                     3

The molecular mass of sodium oxide (Na2O) is
tresset_1 [31]
<span>The answer is 62 u. The molecular mass of a molecule (Mr) is the sum of atomic masses (Ar) of its elements. Ar(Na) = 23 u. Ar(O) = 16 u. Therefore, the molecular mass of sodium oxide is 62 u: Mr(Na2O) = 2 * Ar(Na) + Ar(O) = 2 * 23 u + 16 u = 46 + 16 = 62 u.</span>
