A sled drops 20 mts in height on a hill. The rider is going 20 m/s at the bottom of the hill. Where can you find kinetic and pot

ential energy? In which moments?
Physics

Explanation:

Potential energy is the energy occupied by an object or substance due to its position.

For example, a sled drops 20 meters in height on a hill shows that a decrease in height is taking place.

Hence, potential energy is involved there.

Kinetic energy is the energy acquired by an object due to its motion.

For example, a rider is going 20 m/s at the bottom of the hill shows that rider is in motion due to which it has kinetic energy.

For Al, its atomic number is 13 and its mass number is 27. How many neutrons does it have? A. 13 B. 14 C. 26 D. 27 E. 40
sveta [45]

Answer:

B. 14

Explanation:

For an element:

- Atomic number: is the number of protons in the nucleus (p)

- Mass number: it is the number of protons (p) + neutrons (n) in the nucleus

For Al (aluminium), we have:

p = 13

p + n = 27

Substituting the first equation into the second one, we find the number of neutrons:

n = 27 - p = 27 - 13 = 14

A skateboarder shoots off a ramp with a velocity of 6.6 m/s, directed at an angle of 58 above the horizontal. The end of the ram
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

a) Maximum height reached above ground = 2.8 m

b) When he reaches maximum height he is 2 m far from end of the ramp.

Explanation:

a) We have equation of motion v²=u²+2as

   Considering vertical motion of skateboarder.  

   When he reaches maximum height,

          u = 6.6sin58 = 5.6 m/s

          a = -9.81 m/s²

          v = 0 m/s

  Substituting

         0²=5.6² + 2 x -9.81 x s

          s = 1.60 m

  Height above ground = 1.2 + 1.6 = 2.8 m

b) We have equation of motion v= u+at

   Considering vertical motion of skateboarder.  

   When he reaches maximum height,

          u = 6.6sin58 = 5.6 m/s

          a = -9.81 m/s²

          v = 0 m/s

  Substituting

         0= 5.6 - 9.81 x t

          t = 0.57s

  Now considering horizontal motion of skateboarder.  

  We have equation of motion s =ut + 0.5 at²

          u = 6.6cos58 = 3.50 m/s

          a = 0 m/s²

          t = 0.57  

  Substituting

         s =3.5 x 0.57 + 0.5 x 0 x 0.57²

         s = 2 m

  When he reaches maximum height he is 2 m far from end of the ramp.

Work out the current through an electric kettle with a power of 2.2 kW if it uses the 180 V mains supply. Round your answer to 2
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

12 A

Explanation:

Given,

Power of electric kettle=2.2 kW=2200W (since 1kW=1000W)

Voltage=180V

Current=?

Power = Voltage*Current

Current = Power ÷ Voltage

=2200W ÷ 180V

=12.22 Ampere

=12 A

A body has a mass of 2kg.it accelerats from 20m/s to 40m/s in 4 seconds.the resultant force is<br>​
GaryK [48]

The resultant force is 8N  

Given that mass is 2kg , v= 40m/s, u =20m/s and we need to calculate resultant force
F=ma

m is given
so for a
v-u/t=a { first equation of motion }

40-20/4= 4
so a=4

F = ma =2*4 = 8N
The difference between the forces that are acting on an object as part of a system is known as the resultant force.
v = u + at is the first equation of motion. Here, v denotes the end speed, u the starting speed, an acceleration, and t the passage of time. The first equation of motion is provided by the velocity-time relation, which may be used to calculate acceleration.

Your friend has offered you a ride home from school. During the ride home, you realize that your friend is clearly distracted an
inn [45]
Step 1: Tell them to keep their eyes on the road.Step 2: Watch them to make sure they keep their eyes on the road.Step 3: Don't converse with them because you might risk distracting them.
It makes an awkward situation but it ensures that they'll feel so pressured to keep their eyes on the road or pull over so you can call a different ride.
