Answer:

Kf = 470 mJ

Explanation:

  • According the work-energy theorem, the change in the kinetic energy of one object, is equal to the net work done on it.
  • Since the puck is initially at rest, the change is kinetic energy is just the final kinetic energy of the puck.
  • Assuming that the net force is horizontal, and causes a horizontal displacement also, we can find the net work on the puck as follows:

       W_{net} = F_{net} * \Delta X = 0.56 N * 0.84 m = 0.47 J = 470 mJ (1)

  • As we have already said, (1) is equal to the final kinetic energy of the puck:
  • ⇒ Kf = 470 mJ  (2)

Why is cathode positive in leclanche cell??
laila [671]

Answer:

Because the zinc is reluctant

Explanation:

A leclanche cell contains a conducting solution (electrolyte) of ammonium chloride, a cathode (positive terminal) of carbon, a depolarizer of manganese dioxide (oxidizer), and an anode (negative terminal) of zinc (reductant).

As the Zn2+ ions move away from the anode, leaving their electrons on its surface,

Zn → Zn2+ + 2e−

the anode becomes more negatively charged than the cathode. When the cell is connected to an external electrical circuit, the excess electrons on the zinc anode flow through the circuit to the carbon rod, the movement of electrons forming an electric current.

Jupiter contains a number of small moons that are thought to be captured comets or material ejected by collisions with larger ob
-Dominant- [34]

I believe the evidence for this theory is that:

The orbits surrounding Jupiter are highly elliptical which are off the plane of the ecliptic, and many of these moons are retrograde. This is very unlikely for moons or satellites which are formed during the planetary accretion. Hence comes the theory.

Why do you not come to thermal equilibrium on a cold day
Tju [1.3M]

Two physical systems are in thermal equilibrium if no heat flows between them when they are connected by a path permeable to heat. Thermal equilibrium obeys the zeroth law of thermodynamics. A system is said to be in thermal equilibrium with itself if the temperature within the system is spatially and temporally uniform.

Systems in thermodynamic equilibrium are always in thermal equilibrium, but the converse is not always true. If the connection between the systems allows transfer of energy as heat but does not allow transfer of matter or transfer of energy as work, the two systems may reach thermal equilibrium without reaching thermodynamic equilibrium.

Newton's first law states that objects do not change their velocity unless acted upon
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

Air resistance/Drag (this is the proper term for air resistance) or gravity or friction

It depends on the direction and if you throw it across a surface or if you throw it straight upwards.

I hope this helps!!
