The ball in this activity could reach much greater speeds if not for the loss of energy in many different transformations. There

is one major energy loss that is causing the ball to move more slowly, what is that energy? What force is acting upon the ball to create this loss of energy?
Please help quick!

Answer:

friction acts upon the ball when it is sliding down the slide and this action creates thermal energy

How remove local action and polarization

slava [35]

Answer:

Local action is removed by amalgamating zinc rod.

Explanation:

This prevents chemical reaction to occur because impurities in the zinc cannot get into contact with an electrolyte.

two point charges of magnitude 4.0 μc and -4.0 μc are situated along the x-axis at x1 = 2.0 m and x2 = -2.0 m, respectively. wha

user100 [1]

The electric potential at the origin of the xy coordinate system is negative infinity

<h3>What is the electric field due to the 4.0 μC charge?</h3>

The electric field due to the 4.0 μC charge is E = kq/r² where

k = electric constant = 9.0 × 10 Nm²/C²,
q = 4.0 μC = 4.0 × 10 C and
r = distance of charge from origin = x₁ - 0 = 2.0 m - 0 m = 2.0 m

<h3>What is the electric field due to the -4.0 μC charge?</h3>

The electric field due to the -4.0 μC charge is E = kq'/r² where

k = electric constant = 9.0 × 10 Nm²/C²,
q' = -4.0 μC = -4.0 × 10 C and
r = distance of charge from origin = 0 - x₂ = 0 - (-2.0 m) = 0 m + 2.0 m = 2.0 m

Since both electric fields are equal in magnitude and directed along the negative x-axis, the net electric field at the origin is

E" = E + E'

= -2E

= -2kq/r²

<h3>What is the electric potential at the origin?</h3>

So, the electric potential at the origin is V = -∫₂⁰E".dr

= -∫₂⁰-2kq/r².dr

Since E and dr = dx are parallel and r = x, we have

= -∫₂⁰-2kqdxcos0/x²

= 2kq∫₂⁰dx/x²

= 2kq[-1/x]₂⁰

= -2kq[1/x]₂⁰

= -2kq[1/0 - 1/2]

= -2kq[∞ - 1/2]

= -2kq[∞]

= -∞

So, the electric potential at the origin of the xy coordinate system is negative infinity

What is work done in physics and how can it be calculated

shusha [124]

Work is done when a force is applied to an object moves that object. the work is calculated by multiplying the force by the amount of movement of an object

If an object is thrown in an upward direction from the top of a building 160 ft. High at an initial speed of 21.82 mi/h what is

viktelen [127]

To solve this problem we are going to use tow kinematic equations for falling objects.
1. Kinematic equation for final velocity: $V_{f}=V_{i}+gt$
where
$V_{f}$ is the final velocity
$V_{i}$ is the initial velocity
$g$ is the acceleration due to gravity $32 \frac{ft}{s^2}$
$t$ is the time
2. Kinematic equation for distance: $d=V_{i}t+ \frac{1}{2} gt^2$
where
$d$ is the distance
$V_{i}$ is the initial velocity
$V_{f}$ is the final velocity
$g$ is the acceleration due to gravity $32 \frac{ft}{s^2}$
$t$ is the time

First, we are going to convert 21.82 mi/h to ft/s:
$21.82 \frac{mi}{h} =31.21 \frac{ft}{s}$

Next, we are going to use the first equation to find how long it takes for the rock to reach its maximum height.
We know for our problem that the object is thrown in upward direction, so its velocity at its maximum height (before falling again) will be zero; therefore: $V_{f}=0$ . We also know that it initial speed is 31.21 ft/s, so $V_{i}=31.21$ . Lets replace those values in our formula to find $t$ :
$V_{f}=V_{i}+gt$
$0=31.21+(-32)t$
$-32t=-31.21$
$t= \frac{-31.21}{-32}$
$t=0.98$ seconds

Next, we are going to use that time in our second kinematic equation to find the distance the object reach at its maximum height:
$d=V_{i}t+ \frac{1}{2} gt^2$
$d=31.21(0.98)+ \frac{1}{2} (-32)(0.98)^2$
$d=15.22$ ft

Now we can add the height of the building and the maximum height of the object:
$d=160+15.22=175.22$ ft

Next, we are going to use that height (distance) in our second kinematic equation one more time to fin how long it takes for the object to fall from its maximum height to the ground:
$d=V_{i}t+ \frac{1}{2} gt^2$
$175.22=31.21t+ \frac{1}{2} (32)t^2$
$16t^2+31.21t-175.22=0$
$t=2.47$ or $t=-4.43$
Since time cannot be negative, $t=2.47$ is the time it takes the object to fall to the ground.

Finally, we can use that time in our first kinematic equation to find the final speed of the object when it hits the ground:
$V_{f}=V_{i}+gt$
$V_{f}=31.21+(32)(2.47)$
$V_{f}=110.25$ ft/s

We can conclude that the speed of the object when it hits the ground is 110.25 ft/s
