Does heat cause kinetic energy to increase or decrease? Why?

1 answer:

nalin [4]3 years ago

Answer:

When the temperature of an object increases, the average kinetic energy of its particles increases. When the average kinetic energy of its particles increases, the object's thermal energy increases. Therefore, the thermal energy of an object increases as its temperature increases.

if you put something like apiece of cardboard between a magnet and a iron nail, the magnet still holds the nail. how?

AlekseyPX

Magnetic fields can go through some materials (like cardboard). Electric fields can also do that. Electromagnetic waves can do that. It’s not at all unusual because magnetic fields are not made up of particles so they can go through materials.

An 84.0 kg sprinter starts a race with an acceleration of 1.76 m/s2. If the sprinter accelerates at that rate for 11 m, and then

gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

t=17.838s

Explanation:

The displacement is divided in two sections, the first is a section with constant acceleration, and the second one with constant velocity. Let's consider the first:

The acceleration is, by definition:

$a=\frac{dv}{dt}=1.76$

So, the velocity can be obtained by integrating this expression:

$v=1.76t$

The velocity is, by definition: $v=\frac{dx}{dt}$ , so

$dx=1.76tdt\\x=1.76\frac{t^{2}}{2}$ .

Do x=11 in order to find the time spent.

$11=1.76\frac{t^2}{2}\\ t^2=\frac{2*11}{76} \\t=\sqrt{12.5}=3.5355s$

At this time the velocity is: $v=1.76t=1.76*3.5355s=6.2225\frac{m}{s}$

This velocity remains constant in the section 2, so for that section the movement equation is:

$x=v*t\\t=\frac{x}{v}$

The left distance is 89 meters, and the velocity is $6.2225\frac{m}{s}$ , so:

$t=\frac{89}{6.2225}=14.303s$

So, the total time is 14.303+3.5355s=17.838s

A certain aircraft can fly 612 miles with the wind in 3 hours and travel the same distance against the wind in 6 hours. What is

Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

51 mph

Explanation:

Given: A certain aircraft can fly 612 miles with the wind in 3 hours and travel the same distance against the wind in 6 hours.

Formula: $Speed=\dfrac{Distance}{Time}$

Let speed of aircraft be x mph and speed of wind y mph

Aircraft along wind:

Actual speed of aircraft = x + y

Time taken = 3 hours

Distance = 612 miles

$\therefore x+y=\dfrac{612}{3}$

$x+y=204----------(1)$

Aircraft against wind:

Actual speed of aircraft = x - y

Time taken = 6 hours

Distance = 612 miles

$\therefore x-y=\dfrac{612}{6}$

$x-y=102----------(2)$

By solving equation (1) and equation (2) and we get

x = 153 mph

y = 51 mph

Hence, The speed of wind will be 51 mph
