Answer:

Explanation:

As the dielectric is inserted between the plates of a capacitor, the capacitance becomes K times and the electric field between the plates becomes 1 / K times the original value. Where, K be the dielectric constant.

A 6 kg box with initial speed 5 m/s slides across the floor and comes to a stop after 1.9 s. What is the coefficient of kinetic

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

$\mu_k=0.27$

Explanation:

According to the free body diagram, in this case, we have:

$\sum F_x:-F_k=ma\\\sum F_y:N=mg$

Recall that the force of friction is given by:

$F_k=\mu_k N$

Replacing and solving for the coefficient of kinetic friction:

$-\mu_kN=ma\\-\mu_k(mg)=ma\\\mu_k=-\frac{a}{g}$

We have an uniformly accelerated motion. Thus, the acceleration is defined as:

$a=\frac{v_f-v_0}{t}\\a=\frac{0-5\frac{m}{s}}{1.9s}\\a=-2.63\frac{m}{s^2}$

Finally, we calculate $\mu_k$ :

$\mu_k=-\frac{-2.63\frac{m}{s^2}}{9.8\frac{m}{s^2}}\\\mu_k=0.27$

As an object falls to the ground, its potential energy is being converted to kinetic energy.

alekssr [168]

Answer:

<em>The statement is true</em>

Explanation:

<u>Energy Conversion </u>

When an object starts to fall in free air, it speeds up as it falls. The force of gravity acting on the object causes energy to be transferred from its gravitational potential energy to its kinetic energy. We can safely say the height converts to speed and vice-versa. If no external forces act on the system, we can easily calculate heights and speeds by knowing the total mechanical energy (gravitational potential plus kinetic) is conserved.

Answer:

$\boxed{\text{The statement is true}}$
