Answer:

0.006075Joules

Explanation:

The final kinetic energy of the system is expressed as;

KE = 1/2(m1+m2)v²

m1 and m2 are the masses of the two bodies

v is the final velocity of the bodies after collision

get the final velocity using the law of conservation of momentum

m1u1 + m2u2 = (m1+m2)v

0.12(0.45) + 0/12(0) = (0.12+0.12)v

0.054 = 0.24v

v = 0.054/0.24

v = 0.225m/s

Get the final kinetic energy;

KE = 1/2(m1+m2)v

KE = 1/2(0.12+0.12)(0.225)²

KE = 1/2(0.24)(0.050625)

KE = 0.12*0.050625

KE = 0.006075Joules

Hence the final kinetic energy of the system is 0.006075Joules

Andre heated several solid crystals of a substance called iodine, and the iodine changed directly to a gas. The iodine gas then
Strike441 [17]

The correct choice is

B. sublimation, then condensation

Sublimation is the name of the process where a solid directly converts into gas on heating. on heating solid crystals of iodine directly change into gas. hence this is sublimation.

condensation is the process where gas is converted into liquid on cooling.

here iodine gas is being converted into droplets on reducing the temperature. hence this is condensation.

A small 20-kg canoe is floating downriver at a speed of 2 m/s. What is the canoe’s kinetic energy? A. 40 J B. 80 J C. 18 J
rusak2 [61]

A small 20-kg canoe is floating downriver at a speed of 2 m/s. 40 J is the canoe’s kinetic energy.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

The given canoe has the mass and is being given to move at a speed. Therefore the kinetic energy of the canoe can be calculated using the following method,

Given that mass of the canoe = 20 kg and its speed =1 m/s

As we know that the Kinetic energy has the formula,

\text {Kinetic energy}=\frac{1}{2} \boldsymbol{m} \boldsymbol{v}^{2}

Therefore, substituting the value into the equation, we get,  

K . E .=\frac{1}{2} \times 20 \times 2^{2} = 40 J

If the primary of a transformer were connected to a dc power source,
QveST [7]

Answer:

D. only briefly while being connected or disconnected.

Explanation:

As we know that transformer works on the principle of mutual inductance

here we know that as per the principle of mutual inductance when flux linked with the primary coil charges then it will induce EMF in secondary coil

So here when AC source is connected with primary coil then it will give output across secondary coil because AC source will have change in flux with time.

Now when we connect DC source across primary coil then it will not induce any EMF across secondary coil because DC source is a constant voltage source in which flux will remain constant always

So here in DC source the EMF will only induce at the time of connection or disconnection when flux will change in it while rest of the time it will give ZERO output

so correct answer will be

D. only briefly while being connected or disconnected.

The density of an object determines whether it will float or sink in another substance. An object will float if it is less dense than the liquid it is placed in. An object will sink if it is more dense than the liquid it is placed in.
So since the boat has a lower density than the water, it will float.
So the answer is choice B
