Answer:

a. by moving the book without acceleration and keeping the height of the book constant

Explanation:

FOR CONSTANT KINETIC ENERGY:

The kinetic energy of a body depends upon its speed according to its formula:

ΔK.E = (1/2)mΔv²

So, for Δv = 0 m/s

ΔK.E = 0 J

So, for keeping kinetic energy constant, the books must be moved at constant speed without acceleration.

FOR CONSTANT POTENTIAL ENERGY:

The potential energy of a body depends upon its height according to its formula:

ΔP.E = mgΔh

So, for Δh = 0 m/s

ΔP.E = 0 J

So, for keeping potential energy constant, the books must be moved at constant height.

So, the correct option is:

<u>a. by moving the book without acceleration and keeping the height of the book constant</u>

What is the magnitude of the momentum change of two gallons of water (inertia about 7.3 kg ) as it comes to a stop in a bathtub

aliya0001 [1]

We know that the change in momentum is equals to the product of force and time that is impulse ( $F \times t$ ). Therefore, we need to determine the value of that the water is in air by using the second equation of motion,

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2} gt^2$

Here, u is initial velocity which is zero.

$s= \frac{1}{2} gt^2 \\\\ t = \sqrt{\frac{2s}{g} }$ .

Thus, impulse

$= F \times \sqrt{\frac{2s}{g} }$

From Newton`s second law,

$F =mg$

Therefore, impulse

$= mg \times \sqrt{\frac{2s}{g} } = m \sqrt{2gs}$

Given, $m = 7.3 kg$ and $s = 2.0 m$

Substituting these values, we get

Change in momentum = impulse

$= 7.3 \ kg \sqrt{2 \times 9.8 \ m/s^2 \times 2.0 \ m } = 45 .7 \ Ns$ .

Voltage drop is a better measurement of resistance than testing static resistance because ________.

gavmur [86]

Voltage drop is a better measurement of resistance than testing static resistance because: current flow creates heat which adds to circuit resistance

The current flow or electric current is the measure of the electrons flow around a circuit. It is measured in amperes or "amps". If the current is higher the electrons flow is greater.

<h3>What is electricity?</h3>

Electricity or electrical energy is the energy that occurs due to the movement of electrons in the materials that are considered conductors.
