Physics

Answer:

Kinetic energy and potential energy.

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is directly proportional to the mass of the object and to the square of its velocity: K.E. = 1/2 m v^2. If the mass has units of kilograms and the velocity of meters per second, the kinetic energy has units of kilograms-meters squared per second squared. Kinetic energy is usually measured in units of Joules (J); one Joule is equal to 1 kg m^2 / s^2.

The formula for potential energy depends on the force acting on the two objects. For the gravitational force, the formula is P.E. = mgh, where m is the mass in kilograms, g is the acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s^2 at the surface of the earth) and h is the height in meters. Notice that gravitational potential energy has the same units as kinetic energy, kg m^2/s^2. In fact, all energy has the same units, kg m^2/s^2, and is measured using the unit Joule (J).

Work is also measured with the unit Joule (J).

Who clarified the photoelectric effect?
sergiy2304 [10]
When visible light, X rays, gamma rays, or other forms of electromagnetic radiation are shined on certain kinds of matter, electrons are ejected. That phenomenon is known as the photoelectric effect. The photoelectric effect was discovered by German physicist Heinrich Hertz (1857–1894) in 1887. You can imagine the effect as follows: Suppose that a metal plate is attached by two wires to a galvanometer. (A galvanometer is an instrument for measuring the flow of electric current.) If light of the correct color is shined on the metal plate, the galvanometer may register a current. That reading indicates that electrons have been ejected from the metal plate. Those electrons then flow through the external wires and the galvanometer. HOPE THIS HELPED

vovangra [49]

Answer

Hi,

In a chemical equation, chemicals that react are the reactants, while chemicals that are produced are the products/by products. Both sides of the equation must be balanced.

Explanation

When writing a chemical equation, reactants reacts to produce products. For example in the equation for formation of water, hydrogen combines with oxygen as 2H₂ +O₂→2H₂O where the first part before the arrow represent the reactants and the next part after the arrow are the products. Reactants are on the left where as products are on the right.Coefficient 2, in this cases is used for balancing the equation.

Good luck!

A transformer is designed to provide 6 V from a 150 V supply. If the primary coil has 1000 turns, how many turns does the second
zavuch27 [327]
The applicable relationship is N1/N2 = V1/V2, meaning the ratio of primary voltage to secondary voltage is equal to the ratio of primary turns to secondary turns.

Here N1 = 1000, V1 = 250, V2 = 400V and N2 = TBD.

Rewriting the above relationship, N2 = N1 V2/V1 = 1000 x 400/250 = 1600 turns.

What is the speed of light in a vacuume?
-Dominant- [34]

The speed of light in vacuum is exactly

299,792,458 meters per second.

That's so exact that it's the official scientific definition of a "meter".

The number doesn't t change even if the flashlight or other light source is moving.

Define torque qualitatively and quantitatively.
abruzzese [7]
When you use a wrench to tighten or loosen a nut on a bolt, you are applying torque. It is measured in units of force times distance.  A force of F newtons pulling on a handle of L meters in length would supply a torque of F L newton-meters. More technically, torque is the vector cross product of force times perpendicular distance from the object, F x r = F r sin @
