Answer: Decreases in mass cause decreases in kinetic energy due to the aforementioned positive relationship between the two. Therefore when mass is decreased, an increase in kinetic energy is possible if velocity increases.

You repeated a measurement 6 times and recorded the time using a stop watch: 5.8s, 4.6s, 4.8s, 5.1s, 4.3s, 4.6s. What average va
iVinArrow [24]

Answer and Explanation

Arranging the measured values in increasing order;

4.3s, 4.6s, 4.6s, 4.8s, 5.1s, 5.8s

The two outliers are obviously 4.3s and 5.8s; An outlier is a value in a statistical sample which does not fit a pattern that describes most other data point. Outliers make the average value complicated. So, it is usually better for data to be precise with data points spreading out around a small area.

So, the mean is the average of the four remaining data points after removing the outliers.

Mean = (4.6 + 4.6 + 4.8 + 5.1)/4

Mean = 4.775s

So, the value recorded should be 4.775s, 4.78s or 4.8s depending on the number of decimal places allowed.

An electron is moving in the presence of an electric field of 400 N/C. What force does the electron experience?
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Electric Field strength E=400\ N/C

charge of electron q=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C

Force on the charge particle is given by

F=qE

F=1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 400

F=640\times 10^{-19}\ N

but this force will be acting in the direction opposite to the direction of Electric field because electron is negatively charged

A stuffed toy with a mass of 0.900 kilograms sits on the edge of a bed at a height of 0.830 if the toy falls off the bed what wi
Olenka [21]
Mechanical energy (ME) is the sum of potential energy (PE) and kinetic energy (KE). When the toy falls, energy is converted from PE to KE, but by conservation of energy, ME (and therefore PE+KE) will remain the same.

Therefore, ME at 0.500 m is the same as ME at 0.830 m (the starting point). It's easier to calculate ME at the starting point because its just PE we need to worry about (but if we wanted to we could calculate the instantaneous PE and KE at 0.500 m too and add them to get the same answer).

At the start:

ME = PE = mgh
ME = 0.900 (9.8) (0.830)
ME = 7.32 J

The mass of a spacecraft is about 435 kg . An engine designed to increase the speed of the spacecraft while in outer space provi
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

Δ v =  125 m/s

Explanation:

given,

mass of space craft = 435 Kg

thrust = 0.09 N

time = 1 week

       = 7 x 24  x 60 x 60 s

change in speed of craft = ?

Assuming no external force is exerted on the space craft

now,

T= m_s a

a=\dfrac{T}{m_s}

a =\dfrac{0.09}{435}

a = 2.068 x 10⁻⁴ m/s²

using equation of motion

Δ v = a t

Δ v = 2.068 x 10⁻⁴ x 7 x 24 x 60 x 60

Δ v =  125 m/s
