Answer:

condensation, precipitation, evaporation, transpiration

Explanation:

condensation is when gas condenses into liquid, precipitation is when water comes from the sky like in rain, evaporation is when water is converted from liquid to gas, transpiration is when water is evaporated from leaves.

With what minimum speed must you toss a 130 gg ball straight up to just touch the 15-mm-high roof of the gymnasium if you releas

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

The initial velocity is 0.5114 m/s or 511.4 mm/s

Explanation:

Let the initial velocity be 'v'.

Given:

Mass of the ball (m) = 130 g = 0.130 kg [ 1 g = 0.001 kg]

Initial height of the ball (h₁) = 1.4 mm = 0.0014 m [ 1 mm = 0.001 m]

Final height of the ball (h₂) = 15 mm = 0.015 m

Now, from conservation of energy principle, energy can neither be created nor be destroyed but converted from one form to another.

Here, the kinetic energy of the ball is converted to gravitational potential energy of the ball after reaching the final height.

Change in kinetic energy is given as:

$\Delta KE=\frac{1}{2}m(v_f^2-v_i^2)\\Where\ v_f\to Final\ velocity\\v_i\to Initial\ velocity$

As it just touches the 15 mm high roof, the final velocity will be zero. So,

$v_f=0\ m/s$ .

Now, the change in kinetic energy is equal to:

$\Delta KE = \frac{1}{2}\times 0.130\times v^2\\\\\Delta KE = 0.065v^2$

Change in gravitational potential energy = Final PE - Initial PE

So,

$\Delta U=mg(h_f-h_i)\\\\\Delta U=0.130\times 9.8\times (0.015-0.0014)\\\\\Delta U=0.017\ J$ [ g = 9.8 m/s²]

Now, Change in KE = Change in PE

$0.065v^2=0.017\\\\v=\sqrt{\frac{0.017}{0.065}}\\\\v=0.5114\ m/s\\\\1\ m=1000\ mm\\\\So,0.5114\ m=511.4\ mm\\\\\therefore v=511.4\ mm/s$

Therefore, the initial velocity is 0.5114 m/s or 511.4 mm/s

Electric field lines always begin at _______ charges (or at infinity) and end at _______ charges (or at infinity). One could als

lesantik [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

By convention, the electric field lines (which are tangent to the direction of the electric field at a given point) always begin at positive charges, and finish at negative charges.

This is a consequence of the convention that states that the electric field has the direction of the trajectory of a positive test charge when released from rest in an electric field.

(As the positive charge would move away from positive charges and would be attracted by negative ones).

So, the combination of answers that is true is b) (positive, negative, positive).

Object A has a mass of 100 grams. Object B has a mass of 150 grams. They are both traveling at the same velocity. What can you c

Scilla [17]

-- Momentum is (mass) x (speed).
Object B has 1.5 times as much momentum as Object A has.

-- Kinetic energy is (1/2) x (mass) x (speed) .
Object B has 1.5 times as much kinetic energy as Object A has.

-- If they would both stop long enough to get on the scale,
Object B would weigh 1.5 times as much as Object A does.

A satellite is revolving the earth 4km above the surface.find the orbital velocity of the satellite (R =6400km,g=9.8m/s^2)

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

v ≈ 7900 m/s

Explanation:

centripetal force will equal gravity force

mv²/R = mg

v²/R = g

v² = Rg

v = √(Rg)

v = √(6.4e6(9.8))

v = 7.91959...e+3

v ≈ 7900 m/s

of course, at those velocities and that deep into the atmosphere, the satellite would quickly burn up, slow down, and cause tremendous damage to buildings etc. with the sonic boom shock wave. It would also have to avoid a lot of mountains as 4000 m is not that high.
