Answer:

The correct option is (d).

Explanation:

  • The energy a particle has because of its charge and its position relative to another particle is called thermal energy.
  • It is the energy that comes from heat. This is generated by the movement of the particles in an object.
  • Thermal energy is the energy an object or system has due to the movement of particles within.

Hence, the correct option is (d).

To answer this question, suppose that each vehicle is moving at 7.69 m/s and that they undergo a perfectly inelastic head-on col
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

Force(F) = -80,955.01 N

Explanation:

We need to first determine the impulse that the truck driver received from the car during the collision

So; m₁v₁ - m₂v₂ = (m₁m₂)v₀

where;

m₁ = mass of the truck = 4280 kg

v₁ = v₂ =  speed of the each vehicle = 7.69 m/s

m₂ = mass of the car = 810 kg

Substituting our data; we have:

(4280×7.69) - (810×7.69) = (4280+810)v₀

32913.2 - 6228.9 = (5090)v₀

26684.1 =  (5090)v₀

v₀ = \frac{26684.1}{5090}

v₀ = 5.25 m/s

NOW, Impulse on the truck = m (v₀ - v)

= 4280 × (5.25 - 7.69)

= 4280 ×  (-2.44)

= -10,443.2 kg. m/s

Force that the seat belt exert on the truck driver can be calculated as:

Impulse = Force × Time

-10,443.2 kg. m/s = F (0.129)

F = \frac{-10,443.2}{0.129}

Force(F) = -80,955.01 N

Thus, the Force that the seat belt exert on the truck driver = -80,955.01 N

Which sentence contains italicized words that are used as an infinitive phrase?
In-s [12.5K]
First, the infinitive phrase must contain the word "to", so the only options are A and D.

In D "to" is a preposition: it specifies the spacial relation: to the grocery store.

The infinitive phrase is "to go" and the answer is A.

What do you know about potential energy? And how do we use it?
Liula [17]
Energy is the ability to do work or cause change. There are basically two main types of energy, kinetic and potential. Potential energy is energy that is stored. There are various types of stored, or potential energy. Chemical energy from a battery is a potential form of energy, elastic energy in a stretched rubber band is a form of potential energy, but the most commonly referred to form of potential energy in physics is that of gravitational potential energy. This is energy that is stored due to an object's position. It is dependent on the mass of the object, the height of the object above the ground or Earth, and the acceleration due to gravity.
