A 2.60 kg lion runs at a speed of 5.00 m/s until he sees his prey. The lion then speeds up 8.00 m/s to catch it. How much work d

id do after he speeds up?

ELEN [110]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: 50.7 J

Explanation:

Given

mass of lion is  m=2.6\ kg

The initial speed of the lion is v_1=5\ m/s

increased speed of lion is v_2=8\ m/s

Initially, its kinetic energy is K_1=\frac{1}{2}mv_1^2

Final kinetic energy k_2=\frac{1}{2}mv_2^2

work did by lion after speed up is k_2-k_1

\Rightarrow W=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 2.6[8^2-5^2]\\\\\Rightarrow W=1.3\times [39]=50.7\ J

The current in a series circuit is 19.3 A. When an additional 7.40-Ω resistor is inserted in series, the current drops to 13.4 A
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

16.8ohms

Explanation:

According to ohm's law which states that the current passing through a metallic conductor at constant temperature is directly proportional to the potential difference across its ends.

Mathematically, V = IRt where;

V is the voltage across the circuit

I is the current

R is the effective resistance

For a series connected circuit, same current but different voltage flows through the resistors.

If the initial current in a circuit is 19.3A,

V = 19.3R... (1)

When additional resistance of 7.4-Ω is added and current drops to 13.4A, our voltage in the circuit becomes;

V = 13.4(7.4+R)... (2)

Note that the initial resistance is added to the additional resistance because they are connected in series.

Equating the two value of the voltages i.e equation 1 and 2 to get the resistance in the original circuit we will have;

19.3R = 13.4(7.4+R)

19.3R = 99.16+13.4R

19.3R-13.4R = 99.16

5.9R = 99.16

R= 99.16/5.9

R = 16.8ohms

The resistance in the original circuit will be 16.8ohms

From laboratory measurements, we know that a particular spectral line formed by hydrogen appears at a wavelength of 121.6 nanome
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

b) The star is moving away from us.

Explanation:

If an object moves toward us, the light waves it emits are compressed - the wavelength of the light will be shorter, making the light bluer. On the other hand, if an object moves away from us, the light waves are stretched, making it redder. If from laboratory measurements we know that a specific hydrogen spectral line appears at the wavelength of 121.6 nanometers (nm) and the spectrum of a particular star shows the same hydrogen line appearing at the wavelength of 121.8 nm, we can conclude that the star is moving away from npos, since the wavelength related to that star is more expanded.

Meeta used an elastic tape to measure the length of her window to stitch a curtain. Do you think she will be able to stitch a cu
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

She will not be able to measure the length of her window accurately due to instrumental error from her choice of instrument. The elastic nature of her tape would alter the measurement because it will stretch as she is taking her readings, thus reducing the true measurement of the length of her window.

To measure the length of her window, she could use an inelastic tape rule or a metre rule. These instruments would eliminate instrumental error.
