8 0

Answer:

Mechanical

Explanation:

The tank is at rest. And energy of any substance at rest is known as potential energy.

Now, in forms of energy, potential energy is a type of mechanical energy.

Thus, the correct option is mechanical Energy.

What will be the restoring force if a spring with a spring constant of 45 newtons per meter is pulled 0.03 meters in the downwar

allsm [11]

To calculate for the force in a spring, we use Hooke's Law which relates force and the displacement of the spring. It is said that the force is directly proportional to the displacement. So, it will have the equation F = kx where k is a constant and it is the spring constant.

F = kx
F = 45 N/m (0.03)
F = 1.35 N

A slender rod is 80.0 cm long and has mass 0.390 kg . A small 0.0200-kg sphere is welded to one end of the rod, and a small 0.05

Keith_Richards [23]

Answer

given,

length of slender rod =80 cm = 0.8 m

mass of rod = 0.39 Kg

mass of small sphere = 0.0200 kg

mass of another sphere weld = 0.0500 Kg

calculating the moment of inertia of the system

$I = \dfrac{ML^2}{12}+\dfrac{m_1L^2}{4}+\dfrac{mL^2}{4}$

$I = \dfrac{0.39\times 0.8^2}{12}+\dfrac{0.02\times 0.8^2}{4}+\dfrac{0.05\times 0.8^2}{4}$

$I =0.032\ kg.m^2$

using conservation of energy

$\dfrac{1}{2}I\omega^2 = (m_1-m_2)g\dfrac{L}{2}$

$\omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{(m_1-m_2)gL}{I}}$

$\omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{(0.05-0.02)\times 9.8 \times 0.8}{0.032}}$

$\omega=2.71 \rad/s$

we know,

v = r ω

$v = \dfrac{L}{2} \times 2.71$

$v = \dfrac{0.8}{2} \times 2.71$

v = 1.084 m/s

Which of the following best describes a chemical equation that demonstrates the law of conservation of matter?

LiRa [457]

B, since it is the only one that actually conserves matter for certain. In each of the others, matter could still be imbalanced, since for A, for example, it could be 5 Carbons on the right and 5 Chlorines on the left, and that would not balance.
