Answer:

The bowling ball has greater kinetic energy.

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is given by:

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

Where:

m: is the mass

v: is the speed

For the bowling ball we have:

K = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2} = \frac{1}{2}5 kg*(6 m/s)^{2} = 90 J

And for the ship:

K = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2} = \frac{1}{2}120000 kg*(0.02 m/s)^{2} = 24 J

Therefore, the bowling ball has greater kinetic energy.

I hope it helps you!

The current in a hair dryer measures 15 amps. The resistance of the hair dryer is 14 ohms. What is the voltage?
ZanzabumX [31]
We have that there is a formula connecting these three. V=I*R where V is voltage, I is the current and R is the resistance. Substituting, we get that V=210 Volta, which is the unit of measurement for voltage. You can think of the relationship in the following way : The energy of the field is equal to the flow of the field times the resistance that it meets.

Do quasars reside within or without side of galaxies?
sveticcg [70]

They almost entirely reside within galaxies because quasars are a subset of blackholes with a large and fast enough accretion disk to generate a beam of interstellar material perpendicular to itself. This typically only occurs in the largest black holes at the center of galaxies (supermassive blackholes) or at least stellar black holes---which still occur within galaxies because the material is necessary to form them.

A charge of 1.5 µC is placed on the plates of a parallel plate capacitor. The change in voltage across the plates is 36 V. How m
belka [17]

Answer:

Energy stored in the capacitor is U=2.7\times 10^{-5}\ J        

Explanation:

It is given that,

Charge, q=1.5\ \mu C=1.5\times 10^{-6}\ C

Potential difference, V = 36 V

We need to find the potential energy is stored in the capacitor. The stored potential energy is given by :

U=\dfrac{1}{2}q\times V

U=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1.5\times 10^{-6}\times 36  

U = 0.000027 J

U=2.7\times 10^{-5}\ J

So, the potential energy is stored in the capacitor is U=2.7\times 10^{-5}\ J. Hence, this is the required solution.
