Answer:

the kinetic energy is 120 J

Explanation:

a. The computation of the kinetic energy before it strikes the glove is as follows:

As we know that

The Kinetic energy is

=  1 ÷ 2 × m × v^2

= 1 ÷ 2 × (0.15)(40^2)

= 120 J

Hence, the kinetic energy is 120 J

inna [77]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Hypothesis is one of the science methods. Hypothesis is the same as guessing. It's a scientific method that precedes observations.

According to the question asking that Which of the following is a hypothesis ?

The correct option is C which is

If a squid is attacked by a predator, it will squirt ink

It is an hypothesis because there is no experimental evidence to back it up.

Which statement correctly describes the relationship between frequency and wavelength?
Len [333]
The relationship between the frequency and wavelength of a wave is given by the equation:

v=λf, where v is the velocity of the wave, λ is the wavelength and f is the frequency. 

If we divide the equation by f we get:

λ=v/f

From here we see that the wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional. So as the frequency increases the wavelength decreases. 

So the second statement is true: As the frequency of a wave increases, the shorter the wavelength is.

Harry Potter is chasing his nemesis Draco Malfoy during a quidditch match. Initially, Harry is 35m behind Draco, who has just sp
Sophie [7]

Answer:

the acceleration of harry is equal to 66.126 m/s²

Explanation:

given,

harry is 35 m behind Draco

speed of Draco = 40 m/s

original speed of harry = 50 m/s

acceleration = ?

time taken by the Draco

    t =\dfrac{r}{u} =\dfrac{75}{40}

     t = 1.875 s

distance covered by Harry

  d = 35 + 175 = 210 m

to calculate the acceleration of harry

s = u t+ \dfrac{1}{2}at^2

210 = 50\times 1.875+ \dfrac{1}{2}\times a\times 1.875^2

a × 3.516 × 0.5 = 116.25

a = 66.126 m/s²

hence, the acceleration of harry is equal to 66.126 m/s²
