Answer:

B

Explanation:

kinetic energy (KE) is the energy possessed by moving bodies. It can be expressed as:

KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}

Where: m is the mass of the object, and v its speed.

For example, a stone of mass 2kg was thrown and moves with a speed of 3 m/s. Determine the kinetic energy of the stone.

Thus,

KE =  \frac{1}{2} x 2 x 3^{2}

     = 9

KE = 9.0 Joules

Assume that the speed of the stone was 4 m/s, then its KE would be:

KE =  \frac{1}{2} x 2 x 4^{2}

     = 16

KE = 16.0 Joules

Therefore, it can be observed that as speed increases, the kinetic energy increases. Thus option B is appropriate.

A mass m neutron has elastic collision with a mass m'
hoa [83]

Answer:

The neutron loses all of its kinetic energy to nucleus.

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of neutron is 'm' and mass of nucleus is 'm'.

The type of collision is elastic collision.

In elastic collision, there is no loss in kinetic energy of the system. So, total kinetic energy is conserved. Also, the total momentum of the system is conserved.

Here, the nucleus is still. So, its initial kinetic energy is 0. So, the total initial kinetic energy will be equal to kinetic energy of the neutron only.

Now, final kinetic energy of the system will be equal to the initial kinetic energy.

Now, as the nucleus was at rest initially, so the final kinetic energy of the nucleus will be equal to the initial kinetic energy of the neutron.

Thus, all the kinetic energy of the neutron will be transferred to the nucleus and the neutron will come to rest after collision.

Therefore, the neutron loses all of its kinetic energy to nucleus.

An automobile engine has an efficiency of 19.0%. If it produces 23.0 kJ of mechanical work per second, the heat rejected per sec
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

(e) 98,1 KJ

Explanation:

The engine produces 19%; it means, it rejects 81% of energy. ⇒ 81/19=4.26 times.

The engine produces 23 kJ; it means it rejects 23 * 4.26 = 98.05263 kJ

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!! CORRECT ANSWER ONLY PLEASE!!!
Anon25 [30]

In several of the questions you've posted during the past day, we've already said that a wave with larger amplitude carries more energy.  That idea is easy to apply to this question.

4. The blades on a fan have a frequency of 15 Hz.
vichka [17]

Answer:

a) 4500 cycles b) 0.0667s c) 6.67s

Explanation:

a) 15 Hz= 15 cycles/ s

   5 mins= 300s

   15 cycles/s * 300s= 4500 cycles

b) Period= 1/ frequency

   Period= 1/ 15 cycles/s

   Period= 0.0667s

c) Period * number of revolutions= time

  0.0667 * 100= 6.67s
