A student has a mass (including clothes and shoes) of 65.0 kg. She drinks a 12 oz. can of soda, with a nutritional energy conten

t of 140 Cal. Assuming that the efficiency of her muscles is 20%, how high can she climb without losing weight?
Conversion: 1 Cal = 1,000 cal = 4,180 J

She can climb 0.92 m without losing weight.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Gravitational potential energy is the energy consisting of the product of mass, gravity and height.

1 cal = 4184 J

140 cal = 585760 J

Energy = 585760 J,  m = 65.0 kg = 65000 g,   Efficiency = 20 %

                                 GPE = mgh

where m represents the mass

          g represents the gravity,

           h represents the height.

                             585760 = 65000 \times 9.8 \times h

                                        h = 0.92 m.

agasfer [191]
The answer is polarization. It is just like when you are on a boat and use polarized glasses so the water wont reflect into your eyes it also intensifies the color of the water so you can see better into the water.
example: you cant see any fish because glare from the sun, put on polarized glasses and now you can see fish up to 30 feet deep.

Two scientists interpret the same set of data differently. How would the scientific community deal with this problem?
alexdok [17]
The correct answer would be D. A new experiment would be needed to be done in order to test the conclusions. In science there is no authority, data is the only thing that matters. So if we have two different conclusions from the same date the only solution is to perform more tests and more experiments to see what is correct.

A parallel plate capacitor is charged up by a battery. The battery is then disconnected, but the charge remains on the plates. T
larisa [96]

Answer:

a. Decreases

b. Increases

c. Remains the same

d. Increases

Explanation:

a. Capacitance is given by c= Ak€/d

where A is conductivity plate with Area

K is a constant

€ is dielectric with permittivity.

d is the distance

b. Potential difference is given by

V = Ed, since, the electric field remains the

same, the potential diterence also increases with increase in distance.

Since the capacitance depends upon the distance, and all the other factors are kept constant, the capacitance decreases.

c. Electric field remains the same because charge on the

plate remains the same.

d. since electric field remains the same and capacitance decreases, the energy increases.

E= 1/2c * Q^2

Calculate the speed of a bike rider who accelerates (from rest) for 5 seconds down a hill at an acceleration of 8
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

speed=abs(v)=40ms^-1

Explanation:

acceleration, a = (v-u)/t

since initial velocity u=0 (at rest) and a=8ms^-2,

8=v/5

hence after 5 seconds, v=40ms^-1
