Answer:

Explanation:

All potential and kinetic energy is transferred into heat. Therefore keeping the law of conservation of energy valid. No energy is created nor destroyed only changing shape.

A batter hits a pop fly, and the baseball (with a mass of 148 g) reaches an altitude of 265 ft. If we assume that the ball was 3

den301095 [7]

Answer:

The increase in potential energy of the ball is 115.82 J

Explanation:

Conceptual analysis

Potential Energy (U) is the energy of a body located at a certain height (h) above the ground and is calculated as follows:

U = m × g × h

U: Potential Energy in Joules (J)

m: mass in kg

g: acceleration due to gravity in m/s²

h: height in m

Equivalences

1 kg = 1000 g

1 ft = 0.3048 m

1 N = 1 (kg×m)/s²

1 J = N × m

Known data

$h_2 = 265ft * \frac{0.3048m}{ft} = 80.77m$

$h_1 = 3ft * \frac{0.3048m}{ft} = 0.914m$

$m = 148g*\frac{1kg}{1000g} = 0.148kg$

$g = 9.8 \frac{m}{s^2}$

Problem development

ΔU: Potential energy change

ΔU = U₂ - U₁

U₂ - U₁ = mₓgₓh₂ - mₓgₓh₁

U₂ - U₁ = mₓg(h₂ - h₁)

$U_2 - U_1 = 0.148kg * 9.8 \frac{m}{s^2}*(80.77m - 0.914m) = 115.82 N * m = 115.82J$

The increase in potential energy of the ball is 115.82 J

Scientists can use spectral analysis of stars to determine which of the following?

RoseWind [281]

I do believe all of these but core elements can be determined by spectroscopy which includes the use of electromagnetic radiation. Both the surface and core temperature can be measured using light. Surface elements can be found because the absorption lines of different elements in the spectra of the star, but I haven't heard anything about using spectral analysis for core elements.

Which statement correctly differentiates between transmitters and receivers?

jeka94

Answer:

Transmitters send radio waves, and receivers capture radio waves.

Explanation:

Let us look at each of the choices one by one:

(1).Transmitters have antennas, and receivers do not have antennas.

Nope. To send signals transmitters need antennas, and to receive signals the receivers need antennas as well.

(2). Transmitters send radio waves, and receivers capture radio waves.

This is true. Transmitters are for transmitting and receivers are for receiving EM signals.

(3). Transmitters have demodulators, and receivers have modulators.

No, it is the other way around. Transmitters have modulators, and receivers have demodulators.

(4). Transmitters do not have amplifiers, and receivers have amplifiers.

Nope. Both the transmitters and the receivers need amplifiers. Transmitters need them to increase the power of the broadcast, and receivers need them to amplify the signal for processing.

Therefore, only the 2nd statement "Transmitters send radio waves, and receivers capture radio waves." is correct.
