7 0
Given:

mass of the box = 200kg
velocity of the moving box = 5m/s
height of the box = 1m

Required:

The comparison of the kinetic energy and potential energy

Solution:

Kinetic energy can be calculated using the formula:

KE = 0.5(mass)(velocity)²
KE = 0.5(200kg)(5m/s)²
KE = 2500 Joules

Potential energy can be calculated using the formula:

PE = (mass)(gravity)(height)
PE = (200kg)(9.8m/s²)(1m)
PE = 1960 Joules

At the given conditions, the kinetic energy is greater than the potential energy. This means that the total energy is spent to move horizontally rather than vertically.

An electromagnetic wave has a frequency of and is traveling in a vacuum. The magnetic field is given by ______.
Reptile [31]

Answer:

c) true. With the magnetic field you can determine the Poynting vector and this is equal to the intensity of the wave

Explanation:

An electromagnetic wave carries energy that is given by the vector of poyntíng

     S = 1 / μ₀ E x B

The electric and magnetic fields are related

     E = c B

Substituting

     S = c /μ₀ B² / 2

The two comes from the average value

Let's examine the claims

a) false to determine the wavelength the frequency is needed

b) False. To find the electric field you need the magnetic field

c) true. With the magnetic field you can determine the Poynting vector and this is equal to the intensity of the wave

What influence do culture and customs have on beliefs about mental disorders? Customs really don't determine what is considered
Mumz [18]

Answer:

The culture of the patient, also known as the consumer of mental health services, influences many aspects of mental health, mental illness, and patterns of health care utilization. One important cautionary note, however, is that general statements about cultural characteristics of a given group may invite stereotyping of individuals based on their appearance or affiliation. Because there is usually more diversity within a population than there is between populations (e.g., in terms of level of acculturation, age, income, health status, and social class), information in the following sections should not be treated as stereotypes to be broadly applied to any individual member of a racial, ethnic, or cultural group.
