An 8 kg cat is running 4 m/s. How much kinetic energy does it have?

Physics
1 answer:
Zepler [3.9K]2 years ago
7 0

Answer: Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed)²

Kinetic energy = (1/2) (8 kg) (4 m/s)² =

 

                                 (4 kg) (16 m²/s²) =

                                  64  (kg-m/s²) (m) = 64 newton-m = 64 joules

  (about 17.6 pounds)

The wavelength of light is given by the velocity divided by the frequency. the velocity of blue light is 300,000,000 m/sec, and
s2008m [1.1K]
<span>Electromagnetic radiation are represented in waves. Each type of wave has a certain shape and length. The distance between two peaks in a wave is called the wavelength. It is indirectly related to the frequency which is the number of wave that pass per unit of time. Wavelength is equal to the speed of light divided by the frequency. We calculate as follows:

Wavelength = </span>300,000,000 m/sec / <span>650,000,000,000,000 per second
Wavelength = 4.62x10^-4 m</span>

In a compression wave, particles in the medium move
MissTica
<span>The particles through which compressional waves travel move in the same direction as the wave. This may be observed by fixing one end of a large spring and then compressing and extending the other end. The wave travels from one end to the other and the spring's parts move in the same direction.</span>

In which of the following situations would convection currents most likely occur?
poizon [28]

Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Convection is defined as a process in which a fluid (liquid or gas) is heated and the cooler liquid (more dense) settles or sinks at the bottom whereas a hotter material (less dense) will rises to the top.

For example, ice being less dense (cooler material) will float in a lake whereas liquid water being more dense will sink at the bottom.

Thus, we can conclude that situation in which convection currents most likely occur is within the water in a lake as ice forms on the top.
