A small 20-kg canoe is floating downriver at a speed of 2 m/s. 40 J is the canoe’s kinetic energy.
Answer: Option A
<u>Explanation:</u>
The given canoe has the mass and is being given to move at a speed. Therefore the kinetic energy of the canoe can be calculated using the following method,
Given that mass of the canoe = 20 kg and its speed =1 m/s
As we know that the Kinetic energy has the formula,
Therefore, substituting the value into the equation, we get,
= 40 J
Answer:
Hi,
The correct answer option is; D. Most of the current will flow through one part of the circuit.
Explanation:
A short circuit is a low resistance path in an electric connection between two conductors supplying current in a circuit.
It happens when excess amounts of current flow in the power source through a 'short path'.
Short circuits occur at very high temperatures which is of course caused by the heat produced during dissipation.
An example of application of short circuit is arc welding, where heating is achieved through short circuit.
Answer:
P = 7196 [kPa]
Explanation:
We can solve this problem using the expression that defines the pressure depending on the height of water column.
P = dens*g*h
where:
dens = 1028 [kg/m^3]
g = 10 [m/s^2]
h = 700 [m]
Therefore:
P = 1028*10*700
P = 7196000 [Pa]
P = 7196 [kPa]
Answer:
V = 2.87 m/s
Explanation:
The minimum speed required would be that at which the acceleration due to gravity is negated by the centrifugal force on the water.
Thus, we simply need to set the centripetal acceleration equal to gravity and solve for the speed V using the following equation:
Centripetal acceleration = V^2 / r
where r is the distance of water from the pivot or shoulder.
For our case, r will be 0.65 + 0.19 = 0.84 m
and solving the above equation we get:
9.81 = V^2 / 0.84
V^2 = 8.2404
V = 2.87 m/s
The answer is C. I hope I helped!
