A ball rolls across a smooth surface at a steady 0.5 m/s. What is its acceleration? m/s^2?

Physics

Answer:

0m/s²

Explanation:

The acceleration of the given body whose motion has been described will be zero.

This is because the body moves with a constant velocity.

Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity with time.

Since in this problem, the velocity is not changing per time, then the acceleration would be zero.

A body moving steadily implies that such body is not changing its motion by the virtue of its velocity and even direction.

An empty capacitor is capable of storing 1.0 × 10-4 J of energy when connected to a certain battery. If the distance between the
dangina [55]

Answer:

Explanation:

Energy stored in a capacitor

= 1/2 C₁V²

capacity of a capacitor

c = εK A / d

k is dielectric and d is distance between plates .

When  the distance between the plates is halved and then filled with a dielectric (κ = 4.3)

capacity becomes 4.3  x 2 times

New capacity

C₂ = 8.6 C₁

Energy of modified capacitor

1/2 C₂ V²= 1/2 x 8.6 c x V²

Energy becomes

8.6 times.

Energy stored = 8.6 x 10⁻⁴ J

In a nuclear power plant, Choose one: A. control rods regulate the rate of the reaction by releasing excess neutrons. B. pitchbl
Veronika [31]

Answer:

option A.

Explanation:

The correct answer is option A.

Nuclear power plant are used to generate electricity. In these power plant energy is produced by fission in the nuclear reactor.

The most common fuel used for the production of energy is U-235.

Control rods are inserted in the reactor if energy requirement is less and when energy requirement is large Control rods are remove. Hence, we can say that control rod can be used to regulate the reaction in the nuclear power plant.
