A car of mass 1000 kg is travelling at 10 m/s. What is its kinetic energy?

What type of power plant burns material to make electricity?

Alecsey [184]

<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is: D. Coal

Coal power plants burn coal in to get steam, the steam flows into a turbine which is coupled to an electrical generator.

Coal power plants work burning high amounts of coal into a boiler, generation a lot of steam under extreme pressures. The steam is obtained when the water is heated by the burning coal, then the steam is cooled, being transformed in liquid water again (due the condensation process) and it's sent back on a cyclical process.

Have a nice day!

Change in Energy Quick Check

nika2105 [10]

Answer:

The force of gravity on the object decreases. (FALSE)

The potential energy of the object decreases. (TRUE)

The acceleration due to gravity decreases. (FALSE)

The kinetic energy of the object decrease (FALSE)

Explanation:

FORCE OF GRAVITY:

Force of gravity on the object is the weight of object, which depends upon the mass and value of acceleration due to gravity (W = mg). Since, the value mass is constant on Earth and acceleration due to gravity is also constant on earth.

Therefore, force of gravity remains same on the object. The statement is false.

POTENTIAL ENERGY:

Potential energy of object depends upon the mass, value of acceleration due to gravity, and change in height of object (P.E = mgΔh). Since, the value mass is constant on Earth and acceleration due to gravity increases as the object moves towards the surface of earth. But, the height of object is decreasing.

Therefore, potential energy of object decreases. The statement is true.

ACCELERATION DUE TO GRAVITY:

Acceleration due to gravity depends upon the altitude (gh = g[1 - 2h/Re]). Since, the height of object is decreasing.

Therefore, acceleration due to gravity increases. The statement is false.

But, this change is not significant.

KINETIC ENERGY:

Kinetic Energy of object, which depends upon the mass and velocity of the object (K.E = mv²/2). Since, the value mass is constant on Earth and velocity increases as the object moves towards the surface of earth.

Therefore, kinetic energy of the object also increases. The statement is false.

) 5 -5 1 2 3 4 5 Other than at t = 0, when is the velocity of the object equal to zero? 1. 5.0 s 2. 4.0 s 3. 3.5 s 4. At no other time on this graph. correct 5. During the interval from 1.0 s to 3.0 s. Explanation: Since vt = Z t 0 a dt, vt is the area between the acceleration curve and the t axis during the time period from 0 to t. If the area is above the horizontal axis, it is positive; otherwise, it is negative. In order for the velocity to be zero at any given time t, there would have to be equal amounts of positive and negative area between 0 and t. According to the graph, this condition is never satisfied. 005 (part 1 of 1) 0 points Identify all of those graphs that represent motion at constant speed (note the axes carefully). a) t x b) t v c) t a d) t v e) t a

Q7) A box sliding with a velocity of 5 m/s accelerates at 2 m/s^2. How

grigory [225]

Answer:

The box displacement after 6 seconds is 66 meters.

Explanation:

Let suppose that velocity given in statement represents the initial velocity of the box and, likewise, the box accelerates at constant rate. Then, the displacement of the object ( $\Delta s$ ), in meters, can be determined by the following expression:
