Answer:

he string has POTENTIAL ELASTIC energy

Explanation:

he catapult is a very good example of energy transformations.

Initially when the string is taut it has an elastic potential energy, when releasing the lever it is transformed into cinetic energy in the ball until it shoots out.

Consequently the string has POTENTIAL ELASTIC energy

Density is a physical property that relates the mass of a substance to its volume. A. Calculate the density, in g/mL , of a liqu

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

A) 0.660 g/ml

B) 1.297 ml

C) 0.272 g

Explanation:

Every substance, body or material has mass and volume, however the mass of different substances occupy different volumes. This is where density $D$ appears as a physical characteristic property of matter that establishes a relationship between the mass $m$ of a body or substance and the volume $V$ it occupies:

$D=\frac{m}{V}$ (1)

Knowing this, let's begin with the answers:

<h2 /><h2>Answer A:</h2>

Here the mass is $m=0.155g$ and th volume $V=0.000235L=0.235mL$

Solving (1) with these values:

$D=\frac{0.155g}{0.235mL}$ (2)

$D=0.660g/mL$ (3)

<h2>Answer B:</h2>

In this case the mass of a sample is $m=4.71g$ and its density is $D=3.63g/mL$ .

Isolating $V$ from (1):

$V=\frac{m}{D}$ (4)

$V=\frac{4.71g}{3.63g/mL}$ (5)

$V=1.297mL$ (5)

<h2>Answer C:</h2>

In this case the volume of a sample is $V=0.293mL$ and its density is $D=0.930g/mL$ .

Isolating $m$ from (1):

$m=D.V$ (6)

$m=(0.930g/mL)(0.293mL)$ (7)

$m=0.272g$ (8)

How long would it take to travel 10 light years at the speed of light?

Vladimir79 [104]

A light year is the DISTANCE light travels through vacuum in 1 year.

If light is traveling through vacuum, then it's traveling at the speed of light in vacuum. If a student at home at the beginning of the trip is holding the clock, then ...

Traveling 1 light year takes 1 year.

Traveling 2 light years takes 2 years.

Traveling 3 light years takes 3 years.

Traveling 10 light years takes 10 years.

If the light is traveling through some other substance, or if the clock is traveling along with the light, then these numbers all change.

YOU cannot travel at the speed of light. We have to just leave it at that

A 10 kg migratory swan cruises at 20m/s. A calculation that takes into ac-count the necessary forces shows that this motion requ

IgorC [24]

Answer:

Part A:

Distance=864000 m=864 km

Part B:

Energy Used=ΔE=8638000 Joules

Part C:

$\frac{\triangle m}{m}=0.004998=0.49985\%$

Explanation:

Given Data:

v=20m/s

Time =t=12 hours

In Secs:

Time=12*60*60=43200 secs

Solution:

Part A:

Distance = Speed**Time

Distance=v*t

Distance= 20*43200

Distance=864000 m=864 km

Part B:

Energy Used=ΔE= Energy Required-Kinetic Energy of swans

Energy Required to move= Power Required*time

Energy Required to move=200*43200=8640000 Joules

Kinetic Energy= $\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

$K.E\ of\ Swans=\frac{1}{2} *10*(20)^2=2000\ Joules$

Energy Used=ΔE=8640000 -2000

Energy Used=ΔE=8638000 Joules

Part C:

Fraction of Mass used=Δm/m

For This first calculate fraction of energy used:

Fraction of energy=ΔE/Energy required to move

ΔE is calculated in part B

Fraction of energy=8638000/8640000

Fraction of energy=0.99977

Kinetic Energy= $\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

Now, the relation between energies ratio and masses is:

$\frac{\triangle E}{E}=\frac{\triangle m}{2m}v^2$

$\frac{\triangle m}{m}=\frac{2}{v^2} *\frac{\triangle E}{E}\\\frac{\triangle m}{m}=\frac{2}{20^2} *0.99977$

$\frac{\triangle m}{m}=0.004998=0.49985\%$

The ammonia molecule (NH3) has a dipole moment of 5.0×10?30C?m. Ammonia molecules in the gas phase are placed in a uniform elect

Neko [114]

Question (continuation)

(a) What is the change in electric potential energy when the dipole moment of a molecule changes its orientation with respect to E S from parallel to perpendicular?

(b) At what absolute temperature T is the average translational kinetic energy 3/2kT of a molecule equal to the change in potential energy calculated in part (a)?

Answer:

a. 9.0 * 10^-24 Joules

b. 0.44K

Explanation:

Given

Let p = dipole moment = 5.0 * 10^-30 Cm

Let E = Magnitude = 1.8 * 10^6 N/m

a.

The charge in electric potential = Final Charge - Initial Charge

Initial Charge = Potential Energy

Initial Energy = -pE cosФ where Ф = 0

So, initial Energy = - 5.0 * 10^-30 * 1.8 * 10^6

Initial Energy = -9 * 10^-24 Joules

Final Energy = 0

Charge = 0 - (-9.0 * 10^-24)

Charge = 9.0 * 10^-24 Joules

b.

Absolute Temperature

Change in Kinetic Energy = Change in Potential Energy = 9.0 * 10^-24

Change in Kinetic Energy = 3/2kT where k is Steven-Boltzmann constant = 1.38 * 10^-23

So,

9.0 * 10^-24 = 3/2 * 1.38 * 10^-23 * T

T = (9.0 * 10^-24 * 2)/(3 * 1.38 * 10^-23)

T = (18 * 10^-24)/(4.14 * 10^-23)

T = 0.44K
