Answer:

Explanation:

The conservation of energy law states that energy cant be created or destroyed, only transferred. Since energy cant be created or destroyed, the amount of energy in the universe is completely constant.

Energy keeps the world "going" because we use it every single day in our life. Everything in the universe uses some sort of energy. We digest food for energy, we use electrical energy for electronics, we convert electrical energy into heat energy for heaters and such, we use solar panels to power our houses. There are countless examples of how energy keeps the world "going."

A crane lifts a 100 kg concrete block to a vertical height of 25 m. Calculate

Nana76 [90]

Answer:

Solon,

total mass (kg)= 100kg

height (h)= 25m

acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

so,

work done =m*g*h

= 100*9.8*25

= 24,500 joule

Find the magnitude of the electric field due to a charged ring of radius "a" and total charge "Q", at a point on the ring axis a

34kurt

Answer:

E= $\frac{KQ}{2\sqrt 2a^2}$

Explanation:

We are given that

Charge on ring= Q

Radius of ring=a

We have to find the magnitude of electric filed on the axis at distance a from the ring's center.

We know that the electric field at distance x from the center of ring of radius R is given by

$E=\frac{kQx}{(R^2+x^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}}$

Substitute x=a and R=a

Then, we get

$E=\frac{KQa}{(a^2+a^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}}$

$E=\frac{KQa}{(2a^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}}$

$E=\frac{KQa}{2\sqrt 2a^3}$

$E=\frac{KQ}{2\sqrt 2a^2}$

Where K= $9\times 10^9 Nm^2/C^2$

Hence, the magnitude of the electric filed due to charged ring on the axis of ring at distance a from the ring's center= $\frac{KQ}{2\sqrt 2a^2}$

Salmon often jump waterfalls to reach their breeding grounds. Starting downstream, 3.04 m away from a waterfall 0.585 m in heigh

S_A_V [24]

Answer:

V₀ = 5.47 m/s

Explanation:

The jumping motion of the Salmon can be modelled as the projectile motion. So, we use the formula for the range of projectile motion here:

R = V₀² Sin 2θ/g

where,

R = Range of Projectile = 3.04 m

θ = Launch Angle = 41.7°

V₀ = Minimum Launch Speed = ?

g = 9.81 m/s²

Therefore,

3.04 m = V₀² [Sin2(41.7°)]/(9.81 m/s²)

V₀² = 3.04 m/(0.10126 s²/m)

V₀ = √30.02 m²/s²

V₀ = 5.47 m/s

I NEED HELP ASAP!!! 100 points if you answer these 7 questions:

netineya [11]

Answer:

#1. B. Alfred Wegener

#2. C. Volcanic activity at the ocean bottom.

#3. B, C. Continental, Sea floor (oceanic).

#4. B. Folding

#5. B. Tectonics

#6. C. Point underground where the earthquake starts

#7. C. Flood waters carrying away soil

Explanation:

#1. Alfred Lothar Wegener was a German polar researcher, geophysicist and meteorologist. During his lifetime he was primarily known for his achievements in meteorology and as a pioneer of polar research, and is also known as the father of plate tectonics.

#2. The most prominent feature of ocean topography discovered in the 1960s was: Volcanic activity at the ocean bottom. The continents have always been in their current positions.

#3. Tectonic plates are composed of oceanic lithosphere and thicker continental lithosphere, each topped by its own kind of crust. The two types of tectonic plates are continental and oceanic tectonic plates.

#4. Tremendous pushing forces exerted by two of Earth's plates moving together squeezed rock layers from opposite sides. This caused the rock layers to buckle and fold, forming folded mountains. Folded mountains are mountains formed by the folding of rock layers caused by compression forces.

#5. Plate tectonics is the scientific theory explaining the movement of the earth's crust. It is widely accepted by scientists today. Recall that both continental landmasses and the ocean floor are part of the earth's crust, and that the crust is broken into individual pieces called tectonic plates.

#6. The hypocenter is the point within the earth where an earthquake rupture starts. The epicenter is the point directly above it at the surface of the Earth. Also commonly termed the focus. See also epicenter.

#7. This process is known as erosion. In earth science, erosion is the action of surface processes that removes soil, rock, or dissolved material from one location on the Earth's crust, and then transports it to another location.

Hope this helps!

Have a nice day!
