A 0.15-m straight wire moves with a constant velocity of 7.0 m/s perpendicularly

Which scenario involves kinetic energy transforming into potential energy? A. a book lying on a shelf B. a train traveling at a

NeX [460]

The answer is C.

The Kinetic energy which was exerted and experience pulling the string of a bow is kept as a potential energy at the end of the arrow in contact with the string. Once release from aim at stationary position the potential energy is again transformed.

A long jumper can jump a distance of 7.4 m when he takes off at an angle of 45° with respect to the horizontal. Assuming he can

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

0.02 m

Explanation:

R₁ = initial distance jumped by jumper = 7.4 m

R₂ = final distance jumped by jumper = ?

θ₁ = initial angle of jump = 45°

θ₂ = final angle of jump = 42.9°

$v$ = speed at which jumper jumps at all time

initial distance jumped is given as

$R_{1}=\frac{v^{2}Sin2\theta _{1} }{g}$

final distance jumped is given as

$R_{2}=\frac{v^{2}Sin2\theta _{2} }{g}$

Dividing final distance by initial distance

$\frac{R_{2}}{R_{1}}=\frac{Sin2\theta _{1}}{Sin2\theta _{2}}$

$\frac{R_{2}}{7.4}=\frac{Sin2(42.9)}{Sin2(45))}$

$R_{2} =7.38$

distance lost is given as

d = $R_{1} - R_{2}$

d = 7.4 - 7.38

d = 0.02 m

I want to know about the inventions caused due to rain. Like the Benjamin Franklin's Lightning Conductor. I have to make a chart

nydimaria [60]

Franklin had been waiting for an opportunity like this. He wanted to demonstrate the electrical nature of lightning, and to do so, he needed a thunderstorm.

He had his materials at the ready: a simple kite made with a large silk handkerchief, a hemp string, and a silk string. He also had a house key, a Leyden jar (a device that could store an electrical charge for later use), and a sharp length of wire. His son William assisted him.

Franklin had originally planned to conduct the experiment atop a Philadelphia church spire, according to his contemporary, British scientist Joseph Priestley (who, incidentally, is credited with discovering oxygen), but he changed his plans when he realized he could achieve the same goal by using a kite.

The engine starter and a headlight of a car are connected in parallel to the 12.0-V car battery. In this situation, the headligh

stepladder [879]

Answer:

The total power they will consume in series is approximately 2.257 W

Explanation:

The connection arrangement of the headlight and the engine starter = Parallel to the battery

The voltage of the battery, V = 12.0 V

The power at which the headlight operates in parallel, $P_{headlight}$ = 38 W

The power at which the kick starter operates in parallel, $P_{kick \ starter}$ = 2.40 kW

We have;

P = V²/R

Where;

R = The resistance

V = The voltage = 12 V (The voltage is the same in parallel circuit)

For the headlight, we have;

R₁ = V²/ $P_{headlight}$ = 12²/38 = 72/19

R₁ = 72/19 Ω

For the kick starter, we have;

R₂ = V²/ $P_{kick \ starter}$ = 12²/2.4 = 60

R₂ = 60 Ω

When the headlight and kick starter are rewired to be in series, we have;

Total resistance, R = R₁ + R₂

Therefore;

R = ((72/19) + 60) Ω = (1212/19) Ω

The current flowing, I = V/R

∴ I = 12 V/(1212/19) Ω = (19/101) A

We note that power, P = I²R

In the series connection, we have;

$P_{headlight}$ = I² × R₁

∴ $P_{headlight}$ = ((19/101) A)² × 72/19 Ω = 1368/10201 W ≈ 0.134 W

The power at which the headlight operates in series, $P_{headlight, S}$ ≈ 0.134 W

$P_{kick \ starter}$ = ((19/101) A)² × 60 Ω = 21660/10201 W ≈ 2.123 W

The power at which the kick starter operates in series, $P_{kick \ starter, S}$ ≈ 2.123 W

The total power they will consume, $P_{Total}$ = $P_{headlight, S}$ + $P_{kick \ starter, S}$

Therefore;

$P_{Total}$ ≈ 0.134 W + 2.123 W = 2.257 W
