Answer:

Velocity

Explanation:

Objects in motion usually have a speed which is scalar or velocity which is a vector.

A scalar quantity is one with magnitude but has no directional attribute.

A vector quantity is one with both magnitude and directional attribute.

Speed is a scalar quantity that describes the magnitude of motion a body accrues.

Velocity is a vector quantity that describes both the magnitude of motion and the direction of motion in a body.

In a heat engine if 1000 j of heat enters the system the piston does 500 j of work, what is the final internal energy of the sys
nydimaria [60]

Answer : The final energy of the system if the initial energy was 2000 J is, 3500 J

Solution :

(1) The equation used is,

\Delta U=q+w\\\\U_{final}-U_{initial}=q+w

where,

U_{final} = final internal energy

U_{initial} = initial internal energy

q = heat energy

w = work done

(2) The known variables are, q, w and U_{initial}

initial internal energy = U_{initial} = 2000 J

heat energy = q = 1000 J

work done = w = 500 J

(3) Now plug the numbers into the equation, we get

U_{final}-(2000J)=(1000J)+(500J)

(4) By solving the terms, we get

U_{final}-(2000J)=(1000J)+(500J)

U_{final}-(2000J)=1500J

U_{final}=2000J+1500J

U_{final}=3500J

(5) Therefore, the final energy of the system if the initial energy was 2000 J is, 3500 J

At a circus, a human cannonball is shot from a cannon at 15m/s at an angle of 40° above horizontal. She
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

a

The height is   H  = 6.74 \  m

b

The horizontal distance is  D  = 23.74 \  m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The speed is  v  =  15 \  m/s

  The angle is  \theta  =  40^o

   The height of the cannon from the ground is  h  =  2 m

  The distance of the net from the ground is k  =  1 m

 

Generally the maximum height she reaches is mathematically represented as  

     H  =  \frac{v^2 sin^2 \theta }{2 *  g }  +  h

=>    H  =  \frac{(15)^2 [sin (40)]^2 }{2 * 9.8}  +  2

=>    H  = 6.74 \  m

Generally from kinematic equation  

    s = ut + \frac{1}{2} at^2

Here s is the displacement which is mathematically represented as

         s  =  [-(h-k)]  

    =>  s =  -(2-1)

    =>  s  = -1 m

There reason why s =  -1 m is because upward motion canceled the downward motion remaining only the distance of the net from the ground which was covered during the first half but not covered during the second half

     a =  -g = -9.8

    u  =  v sin (\theta)

So

    -1 = (vsin 40 )t + \frac{1}{2} * (-9.8) t^2

=>  -4.9t^2 + 9.6418t + 1 = 0

using  quadratic formula to solve the equation we have

    t  =  2.07 \  s

Generally distance covered along the horizontal is  

   D  =  v cos (40) *  2.07

=>   D  =  15 cos (40) *  2.07

=>   D  = 23.74 \  m

A scientist spends most of her time observing the motion of objects and how they behave. Which branch of science is she most lik
olga55 [171]
The scientist is likely to be studying kinematics.
Kinematics is the branch of science, specifically physics, which is concerned with the motion of objects without reference to the forces that induce this motion. An example of kinematics is studying the change in velocity of an object over time or the distance covered by an object in a specified amount of time.

Which compares the thermal energy found in a piece of coal with the thermal energy found in a newly opened coal mine?
9966 [12]

<span>The thermal energy found in a piece of coal is lesser than in the thermal energy in a newly opened coal mine. The newly opened coal mine requires a greater thermal energy to really open it due to its solid structure. Whereas in a piece of coal, it only requires a lesser amount of thermal energy to extract it.</span>
