It would be mechanical potential energy.

Potential energy because the moment the dam breaks, a lot of water will burst out. Obviously this isn't chemical energy because there is not chemical reaction taking place. It's not electrical energy because there is no electricity at the dam. This leaves us with potential and kinetic energy. A key word in here is holds back, aka stored water. Storing almost always leads to potential energy.

What provides the force on the person in the passenger seat?
podryga [215]

The forces that make a passenger speed up, slow down, or
turn a curve are the same forces that have the same effect
on the driver and anybody else in the car.

-- Speeding up . . .

              the back of the seat
              friction between the car seat and the seat of your pants

-- Slowing down . . .

              the seat belt
              friction between the car seat and the seat of your pants

-- Turning away from a straight line . . .
   
              the seat belt
              friction between the car seat and the seat of your pants
              the door, or whatever or whomever you're leaning against

The speed of light in a material is found to be 2.07 x 108 m/s. What is the most likely material from the options below if the s
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

1.3636

Explanation:

Write the expression for the refractive index.

n=c/v

c= speed of light in air

v= speed of light in material

=(3×10^8 m/s)/(2.2×10^8 m/s)

 =1.3636

Help with #3 please
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

The answer to your question is va = 8 cm/s, vb = 12.5 cm/s, a = 9 cm/s²

Explanation:

Data

Ta = 0.125 s

Tb = 0.08 s

Δtab = 0.5 s

distance = 1 cm

Process

1.- Calculate va

va = 1/0.125 = 8 cm/s

vb = 1/0.08 = 12.5 cm/s

2.- Calculate Δv

Δv = 12.5 - 8

Δv = 4.5 cm/s

3.- Calculate acceleration

a = Δv / Δt

a = 4.5/0.5

a = 9 cm/s²
