Q. At what point in a waterfall do the drops of water contain the most kinetic energy ?

Physics
1 answer:
antoniya [11.8K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

2.When they reach the bottom of the fall

Explanation:

The potential energy of the waterfall is maximum at the maximum height and decreases with decrease in height. Based on the law of conservation of mechanical energy, as the potential energy of the water fall is decreasing with  decrease in height of the fall, its kinetic energy will be increasing and the kinetic energy will be maximum at zero height (bottom of the fall).

Thus, the correct option is "2" When they reach the bottom of the fall

Current that moves in one direction from negative to positive. May be created by a battery. Is generally NOT found in U.S. Elect
Karolina [17]

Answer:

C. D.C.

Explanation:

The current that is being described here is D.C. or direct current. It is the D.C. that moves in one direction from negative to positive. May be created by a battery. It is different from the A.C.( alternating current whose polarity changes regularly). It is A.C. that is used in electrical outlets and not D.C.So, the current option is C.

What happens at the end of most cold currents?​
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

Ocean currents act as conveyer belts of warm and cold water, sending heat toward the polar regions and helping tropical areas cool off, thus influencing both weather and climate.

A friction force of 280 N exists between a cart and the path. If the force of reaction is 766 N, what is the minimum action forc
MatroZZZ [7]

force of friction on the cart is given as

F_f = 280 N

here we also know the reaction force due to surface

R = 766 N

so we can say reaction force is given as

R = \sqrt{F_n^2 + F_f^2}

766 = \sqrt{F_n^2 + 280^2}

F_n^2 = 766^2 - 280^2

F_n = 713 N

now by force balance we will say

F_y + F_n = mg

F_y = mg - F_n

F_x = F_f

also we know that

F_f = \mu * F_n

280 = \mu * 713

\mu = 0.39

now minimum force required to set this into motion

F_{min} = \frac{\mu mg}{\sqrt{1 + \mu^2}}

here we know that

mg = F_n = 713 N

F_{min} = \frac{0.39* 713}{\sqrt{1 + 0.39^2}}

F_{min} = 259 N

So it will require 259 N minimum force to move it

A 200g air-track glider is attached to a spring. The glider is pushed in 10cm and released. A student with a stopwatch finds tha
cricket20 [7]

The spring constant will be k= 5.5N/m for a 200g air track glider attached to a spring.

<h3>What is spring constant?</h3>

The spring constant, k, is a measure of the stiffness of the spring. It is different for different springs and materials.

Calculation for What is the spring constant

First step is to calculate the time period

T = 12 second/10

T = 1.2 second

Now let calculate the spring constant using this formula

k=\dfrac{4\pi ^2m}{T^2}

Where,

m=0.2kg

T=1.2second

k represent spring constant=?

Let plug in the formula

k=\dfrac{4 \pi \times 0.2}{(1.2)^2}

k=\dfrac{39.48\times 0.2}{1.44}

k=\dfrac{7.90}{1.44}

k=5.48 N/m

k=5.5 N/m ( Approximately)

Therefore the spring constant will be 5.5 N/m

To know more about spring constant follow
