Vary the sled’s height and mass. Observe the effect of each change on the potential energy of the sled.

Physics
1 answer:
qaws [65]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

a. Potential energy of the sled is increased when height of sled is increased.

b. Potential energy of the sled is increased when height of sled is increased.

c. P.E₂₀ = 2 P.E₁₀

d. P.E₂₀₀ = 2 P.E₁₀₀

Explanation:

The potential energy of the sled can be given by the following:

Potential\ Energy = P.E = mgh\\

where,

m = mass of sled

g = acceleration due to gravity

h = height of sled

a.

It is clear from the formula that potential energy of sled is directly proportional  to the height of sled.

<u>Therefore, potential energy of the sled is increased when height of sled is increased.</u>

b.

It is clear from the formula that potential energy of sled is directly proportional to the mass of sled.

<u>Therefore, potential energy of the sled is increased when mass of sled is increased.</u>

<u></u>

c.

P.E\ at\ 10\ m:\\P.E_{10} = 10mg\\P.E\ at\ 20\ m:\\P.E_{20} = 20mg\\\frac{P.E_{20}}{P.E_{10}} = \frac{20mg}{10mg}

<u>P.E₂₀ = 2 P.E₁₀</u>

<u></u>

d.

P.E\ at\ 100\ kg:\\P.E_{100} = 100gh\\P.E\ at\ 200\ m:\\P.E_{200} = 200gh\\\frac{P.E_{200}}{P.E_{100}} = \frac{200gh}{100gh}

<u>P.E₂₀₀ = 2 P.E₁₀₀</u>

Why is it important for you to understand the basics of organ systems?
marissa [1.9K]
This question can have ALOT of answers but ill leave you with these summed up points and you can take what you need from it they are get right to the point! Sorry if they long paragraphs scare you lol




*You want to provide patients the best care possible. Most often your patients will have a disease. Diseases result when there is something abnormal in the anatomy and physiology of a structure. With a car, you can’t understand how to fix an engine if you don’t know how it works. The same is true with your patients. You can’t really understand how to treat them or why the treatment works, if you don’t understand how the effected body system normally functions.

*Patients will want to understand their diseases. In order to help them understand what is going wrong, you have to first understand how a particular organ is supposed to work. In addition, you will need to be able to explain these things to patients in a way that they can understand. If you don’t understand it well, you won’t be able to explain it. Your patient’s confidence in your ability will be at least partially determined by your ability to discuss what you are doing and why you are doing it. You will need to look up information if you are not sure.

*Organ systems are so interconnected that a disease in one system may result in a symptom in another system. Without seeing the normal interconnectedness, you cannot fully understand the disease.


*Success in an allied health field requires at least three things. First, you must have the personality to be able to support and help patients. Secondly, you must have the scientific and technical knowledge necessary to make the correct decisions regarding patient care. Thirdly, you must have the clinical skills necessary to implement this kno

According to the Theory of Plate Tectonics, which of the following statements is correct?
kramer

Answer:

It's D. The geothermal energy from Earth's core loses most of its heat before reaching the outer layer. The plates on the outer layer have been proven to be moving due to evidence such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and tsunamis.

A steady beam of alpha particles (q = + 2e, mass m = 6.68 × 10-27 kg) traveling with constant kinetic energy 22 MeV carries a cu
cluponka [151]

Answer:

Explanation:

q = 2e = 3.2 x 10^-19 C

mass, m = 6.68 x 10^-27 kg

Kinetic energy, K = 22 MeV

Current, i = 0.27 micro Ampere = 0.27 x 10^-6 A

(a) time, t = 2.8 s

Let N be the alpha particles strike the surface.

N x 2e = q

N x 3.2 x 10^-19 = i t

N x 3.2 x 10^-19 = 0.27 x 10^-6 x 2.8

N = 2.36 x 10^12

(b) Length, L = 16 cm = 0.16 m

Let N be the alpha particles

K = 0.5 x mv²

22 x 1.6 x 10^-13 = 0.5 x 6.68 x 10^-27 x v²

v² = 1.054 x 10^15

v = 3.25 x 10^7 m/s

So, N x 2e = i x t

N x 2e = i x L / v

N x 3.2 x 10^-19 = 2.7 x 10^-7 x 0.16 / (3.25 x 10^7)

N = 4153.85

(c) Us ethe conservation of energy

Kinetic energy = Potential energy

K = q x V

22 x 1.6 x 10^-13 = 2 x 1.5 x 10^-19 x V

V = 1.17 x 10^7 V
