Answer:

So mass of the object will be 3.2 kg

Explanation:

We have net force on the object F = 16 N

Acceleration of the object $a=5m/sec^2$

We have top find the mass of the object

From newton law of motion we know that force is given by

F = ma , here m is mass and a is acceleration

So $16=5\times m$

$m=3.2kg$

So mass of the object will be 3.2 kg

What is the difference between light energy and heat energy

MrRissso [65]

ANSWER:

What is the difference between heat and light? - Physics Stack ... Heat and light are different but they are both forms of energy. Heat is a form of kinetic energy contained in the random motion of the particles of a material. Light is a form of electromagnetic energy. As with other forms of energy, heat energy can be transformed into light energy and vice versa.

Two balls are dropped from rest and allowed to fall. If one ball is allowed to fall for 1 s and the other for 3 s compare the di

kirill115 [55]

The second ball traveled a greater distance when compared to the first ball because the second ball spent more time in motion.

The given parameters;

time of fall of the first ball, t = 1 s
time of fall of the second ball, t = 3 s

The distance traveled by each ball is calculated using the second equation of motion as shown below.

The distance traveled by the first ball is calculated as follows;

$h = u_0t + \frac{1}{2} gt^2\\\\h = 0 + \frac{1}{2} gt^2\\\\h = \frac{1}{2} gt^2\\\\h = (0.5\times 9.8\times 1^2)\\\\h = 4.9 \ m$

The distance traveled by the second ball is calculated as follows;

$h = \frac{1}{2} gt^2\\\\h = (0.5\times 9.8\times 3^2)\\\\h = 44.1\ m$

Thus, the second ball traveled a greater distance because it spent more time in motion.

How do kinetic and potential energy transfer to one throughout a roller coaster ride?

mojhsa [17]

Answer:

As the cars ascend the next hill, some kinetic energy is transformed back into potential energy. Then, when the cars descend this hill, potential energy is again changed to kinetic energy. This conversion between potential and kinetic energy continues throughout the ride.
