Answer:

1.6 J (Joules)

Explanation:

Since the potential energy of a spring can be found from the equation PE = 1/2 * k * x^2, the PE is 1/2 * 80 *.2^2 = 1.6 J

What type of data can be used to make a model of food?

beks73 [17]

Answer:

Below:

Explanation:

Food balance sheet data are useful in monitoring trends in food consumption over time and in making rough comparisons between countries. Often, such data are the only data that can be readily obtained for the rapid evaluation of new problems.

Hope it helps...

D. If a dog has a mass of 12 kg, what is its weight on Neptune?<br> 11.7N/kg

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

133.8 N

Explanation:

Recall that the acceleration of gravity in Neptune is estimated as 11.15 m/s^2

Therefore, the weight of the dog on this planet would be:

Weight = mass x acceleration of gravity = 12 kg x 11.15 m/s^2 = 133.8 N

Use wave equation calculate the speed of sound in the air if frequency of 110 hz has a wave length of 3 m

kirill115 [55]

Answer = 330 m/s

The wave equation is as follows:

Wave speed = wavelength x frequency

The known values are:
Wavelength = 3m
Frequency = 110 Hz

Substitute the known values into the wave equation to find the wave speed.

Wave speed = 3 x 110

Wave speed = 330 m/s

A uniform marble rolls down a symmetrical bowl, start- ing from rest at the top of the left side. The top of each side is a dist

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

Part a)

$h' = \frac{10}{14} h$

Part b)

if both sides are rough then it will reach the same height on the other side because the energy is being conserved.

Part c)

Since marble will go to same height when it is rough while when it is smooth then it will go to the height

$h' = \frac{10}{14} h$

so on smooth it will go to lower height

Explanation:

As we know by energy conservation the total energy at the bottom of the bowl is given as

$\frac{1}{2} mv^2 + \frac{1}{2}I\omega^2 = mgh$

here we know that on the left side the ball is rolling due to which it is having rotational and transnational both kinetic energy

now on the right side of the bowl there is no friction

so its rotational kinetic energy will not change and remains the same

so it will have

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = mgh'$

now we know that

$I = \frac{2}{5}mr^2$

$\omega = \frac{v}{r}$

so we have

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \frac{1}{2}(\frac{2}{5}mr^2)(\frac{v}{r})^2 = mgh$

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \frac{1}{5}mv^2 = mgh$

$\frac{7}{10}mv^2 = mgh$

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = \frac{10}{14}mgh$

so the height on the smooth side is given as

$h' = \frac{10}{14} h$

Part b)

if both sides are rough then it will reach the same height on the other side because the energy is being conserved.

Part c)

Since marble will go to same height when it is rough while when it is smooth then it will go to the height

$h' = \frac{10}{14} h$

so on smooth it will go to lower height
