If energy cannot be created or destroyed, where does it go?

blondinia [14]

It transfers and changes into different types of energy, this is why the ground feels hot when something moves fast over it.

In a discussion person A is talking 1.2 dB louder than person B, and person C is talking 3.2 dB louder than person A. What is th

liberstina [14]

Answer: 3.84dB

Explanation:

Since person A is talking 1.2dB louder than B, we will have

A = 1.2B... (1)

Similarly, person C is talking 3.2 dB louder than person A, we have

C = 3.2A... (2)

From equation 1, B = A/1.2... (3)

To get the ratio of the sound intensity of person C to the sound intensity of person B, we will divide equation 2 by 3 to give

C/B = 3.2A/{A/1.2}

C/B = 3.2A×1.2/A

C/B = 3.2×1.2

C/B = 3.84dB

What is the strength of the electric field in a region where the electric potential is constant?

Roman55 [17]

Answer:

Where the electric potential is constant, the strength of the electric field is zero.

Explanation:

As a test charge moves in a given direction, the rate of change of the electric potential of the charge gives the potential gradient whose negative value is the same as the value of the electric field. In other words, the negative of the slope or gradient of electric potential (V) in a direction, say x, gives the electric field (Eₓ) in that direction. i.e

Eₓ = - dV / dx ----------(i)

From equation (i) above, if electric potential (V) is constant, then the differential (which is the electric field) gives zero.

<em>Therefore, a constant electric potential means that electric field is zero.</em>

If the back of the truck is 1.3 m above the ground and the ramp is inclined at 22 ∘ , how much time do the workers have to get t

solong [7]

Refer to the diagram shown below.

Assume that
(a) The piano rolls down on frictionless wheels,
(b) Wind resistance is negligible.

The distance along the ramp is
d = (1.3 m)/sin(22°) = 3.4703 m

The component of the piano's weight along the ramp is
mg sin(22°)
If the acceleration down the ramp is a, then
ma = mg sin(22°)
a = g sin(22°) = (9.8 m/s²) sin(22°) = 3.671 m/s²

The time, t, to travel down the ramp from rest is given by
(3.4703 m) = 0.5*(3.671 m/s²)*(t s)²
t² = 3.4703/1.8355 = 1.8907
t = 1.375 s

Answer: 1.375 s

In general, how do you find the average velocity of any object falling in a vacuum?

irina [24]

In general, how do you find the average velocity of any object falling in a vacuum? (Assume you know the final velocity.) Multiply the final velocity by final time. 3. Calculate : Distance, average velocity, and time are related by the equation, d = v • t A
