Mashcka [7]3 years ago

Answer with Explanation:

One hypothesis above would probably rely on the situation called <em>"inelastic collision." </em>The two carts are travelling towards each other at different speed. So, this means that once they collide, the kinetic energy will not be conserved but will be transferred as <em>sound energy, thermal energy or material deformation</em>. The impact will be great, thus a <u>greater fraction of kinetic energy will be lost from the system.</u>

Give an example of where you see the law of conservation of energy in your life
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

The law of conservation of energy can be seen in these everyday examples of energy transference: Water can produce electricity. Water falls from the sky, converting potential energy to kinetic energy.

The cue ball loses energy because the energy it had has been transferred to the 8 ball, so the cue ball slows down

In a paragraph, contrast the characteristics between anorexia and bulimia
FinnZ [79.3K]
Bulimia nervosa is similar in many ways because the individual is obsessed with their weight and wants to continuously lose weight to achieve their idea of a 'perfect' body shape. But with bulimia, there are periods of binging and purging. This means that the individual with bulimia may go through a period where they eat an excessive amount of food and then purge by using exercise, medications or vomiting to get rid of the food.

Distanţa Buzău - Iaşi este de 72 km . Aflaţi timpul în care un autovehicul parcurge această distanţă, dacă are viteza de 72 km p
GrogVix [38]

The distance from Buzău to Iaşi is 72 km. Find out the time a vehicle travels this distance if it has a speed of 72 km per hour. Expresses the speed in the unit of measurement in SI. I give the crown! Thank you

Answer:

3600seconds

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Distance  = 72km

Speed  = 72km/hr

Unknown:

Time it takes for the vehicle to travel the distance  = ?

Solution:

Speed is the distance divided by time;

               Speed = \frac{distance}{time}

             time  =\frac{distance}{speed }  

 Insert the parameters;

         time  = \frac{72}{72}  = 1hr

The SI unit of time is in seconds;

3600 seconds is 1hr

The time is 3600seconds

If an electric wire is allowed to produce a magnetic field no larger than that of the Earth (0.503 X 104 T) at a distance of 15
dem82 [27]

Answer:

37.725 A

Explanation:

B = magnitude of the magnetic field produced by the electric wire = 0.503 x 10⁻⁴ T

r = distance from the wire where the magnetic field is noted = 15 cm = 0.15 m

i = magnitude of current flowing through the wire = ?

Magnetic field by a long wire is given as

B = \frac{\mu _{o}}{4\pi }\frac{2i}{r}

Inserting the values

0.503\times 10^{-4} = (10^{-7})\frac{2i}{0.15}

i = 37.725 A
