Answer:

The energy that will go will for thermal store of the surroundings is 20 J.

Explanation:

Given;

kinetic of the thrown ball, K.E₁ = 50 J

kinetic energy used to move the target, K.E₂ = 30 J

The excess energy that will go will for thermal store of the surroundings;

ΔK.E = K.E₁ - K.E₂

ΔK.E = 50J - 30J

ΔK.E = 20 J

Therefore, the energy that will go will for thermal store of the surroundings is 20 J.

Lorico [155]
Fire extinguishers are typically red. Goes along with the red fire trucks and red being a color of emergency. While there isn't any standard, if we decided to change the colors of the fire extinguisher, people would be very confused and given the context, it could cost people's lives, so I'm thinking red will be the color of fire extinguishers for a while to come.

The tsunami described in the passage produced a very erratic pattern of damage, with some areas seeing very large waves and near
Lunna [17]

Answer:B. The superposition of waves from the primary source and reflected waves produced regions of constructive and destructive interference.

Explanation: Tsunami is described as several waves originating from a water body mainly an ocean caused by Large scale earth movements taking place under the sea.

Superimposition of wave is the movement of one wave on another,it can be constructive or destructive.

Constructive interference is a wave interference that take place causing the Crest of one wave to align with that of another wave leading to high amplitude.

Destructive interference is a wave interference that take place causing the Trouph of one wave to align with the crest of another wave leading to low amplitude wave.

A person sitting still in a moving airplane is considered to be... (SP1a) a. Motionless in relation to everything in the plane.
vichka [17]

Answer:

C. Both a and b

Explanation:

Firstly, persons and objects in a moving plane as described in this question, are moving at the same speed as the plane even if there is no individual movement of these objects.

However, this question describes a person sitting still in a moving plane. This means that;

- The person is motionless in relation to everything in the plane i.e the person is not moving even if other things in the plane are.

- The person is in motion compared to everything on the ground i.e. the person is moving at the same speed as the plane, hence, in comparison with the ground, the person is moving.

Therefore, options A and B are correct

A thin rod of length 0.75 m and mass 0.42 kg is suspended freely from one end. It is pulled to one side and then allowed to swin
Goshia [24]

Answer:

(A) 0.63 J  

(B) 0.15 m

Explanation:

length (L) = 0.75 m

mass (m) =0.42 kg

angular speed (ω) = 4 rad/s

To solve the questions (a) and (b) we first need to calculate the rotational inertia of the rod (I)

I = Ic + mh^{2}  

Ic is the rotational inertia of the rod about an axis passing trough its centre of mass and parallel to the rotational axis

h is the horizontal distance between the center of mass and the rotational axis of the rod

I = (\frac{1}{12})(mL^{2} ) + m([tex]\frac{L}{2})^{2}[/tex]

I = (\frac{1}{12})(0.42 x 0.75^{2} ) + ( 0.42 x ([tex]\frac{0.75}{2})^{2}[/tex])

I = 0.07875 kg.m^{2}

(A) rods kinetic energy = 0.5Iω^{2}

  = 0.5 x 0.07875 x 4^{2} = 0.63 J   0.15 m

(B) from the conservation of energy

   initial kinetic energy + initial potential energy = final kinetic energy + final potential energy

   Ki + Ui = Kf + Uf

   at the maximum height velocity = 0 therefore final kinetic energy = 0

   Ki + Ui = Uf

   Ki = Uf - Ui

 Ki =  mg(H-h)

where (H-h) = rise in the center of mass

     0.63 = 0.42 x 9.8 x (H-h)

   (H-h) = 0.15 m
