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

Compare the energy consumption of two commonly used items in the household. Calculate the energy used by a 1.40 kW toaster oven,
andrew-mc [135]

Energy = (power) x (time)

-- <u>For the toaster:</u>

Power = 1.4 kW  =  1,400 watts

Time = 5.4 minutes = 324 seconds

Energy = (1,400 W) x (324 s)  =  453,600 Joules

-- <u>For the CFL bulb:</u>

Power = 11 watts

Time = 10.5 hours = 37,800 seconds

Energy = (11 W) x (37,800 s)  =  415,800 Joules

-- The toaster uses energy at 127 times the rate of the CFL bulb.

-- The CFL bulb uses energy at 0.0079 times the rate of the toaster.

-- The toaster is used for 0.0086 times as long as the CFL bulb.

-- The CFL bulb is used for 116.7 times as long as the toaster.    

-- The toaster uses 9.1% more energy than the CFL bulb.

-- The CFL bulb uses 8.3% less energy than the toaster.

A battery is used to charge a parallel-plate capacitor, after which it is disconnected. Then the plates are pulled apart to twic
Igoryamba

Answer: C.

Explanation:

For a parallel-plate capacitor where the distance between the plates is d.

The capacitance is:

C = e*A/d

You can see that the distance is in the denominator, then if we double the distance, the capacitance halves.

Now, the stored energy can be written as:

E = (1/2)*Q^2/C

Now you can see that in this case, the capacitance is in the denominator, then we can rewrite this as:

E = (1/2)*Q^2*d/(e*A)

e is a constant, A is the area of the plates, that is also constant, and Q is the charge, that can not change because the capacitor is disconnected.

Then we can define:

K = (1/2)*Q^2/(e*A)

And now we can write the energy as:

E = K*d

Then the energy is proportional to the distance between the plates, this means that if we double the distance, we also double the energy.

A student standing on a stationary skateboard tosses a textbook with a mass of mb = 1.25 kg to a friend standing in front of him
juin [17]

Answer:

The velocity of the student has after throwing the book is 0.0345 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of book =1.25 kg

Combined mass = 112 kg

Velocity of book = 3.61 m/s

Angle = 31°

We need to calculate the magnitude of the velocity of the student has after throwing the book

Using conservation of momentum along horizontal  direction

m_{b}v_{b}\cos\theta= m_{c}v_{c}

v_{s}=\dfrac{m_{b}v_{b}\cos\theta}{m_{c}}

Put the value into the formula

v_{c}=\dfrac{1.25\times3.61\times\cos31}{112}

v_{c}=0.0345\ m/s

Hence, The velocity of the student has after throwing the book is 0.0345 m/s.
