Answer:

A battery is a device that stores chemical energy and converts it to electrical energy.

Explanation:

The chemical reactions in a battery involve the flow of electrons from one material (electrode) to another, through an external circuit. The flow of electrons provides an electric current that can be used to do work

Why does an energy transfer not always result in phase change?

mash [69]

Answer:

These energy exchanges are not changes in kinetic energy. They are changes in bonding energy between the molecules. "If heat is coming into a substance during a phase change, then this energy is used to break the bonds between the molecules of the substance

A burglar attempts to drag a 108 kg metal safe across a polished wood floor Assume that the coefficient of static friction is 0.

V125BC [204]

Answer:

2.00 m/s²

Explanation:

Given

The Mass of the metal safe, M = 108kg

Pushing force applied by the burglar, F = 534 N

Co-efficient of kinetic friction, $\mu_k$ = 0.3

Now,

The force against the kinetic friction is given as:

$f = \mu_k N = u_k Mg$

Where,

N = Normal reaction

g= acceleration due to the gravity

Substituting the values in the above equation, we get

$f = 0.3\times108\times9.8$

or

$f = 317.52N$

Now, the net force on to the metal safe is

$F_{Net}= F-f$

Substituting the values in the equation we get

$F_{Net}= 534N-317.52N$

or

$F_{Net}= 216.48$

also,

$F_{Net}= M\times$ acceleration of the safe

Therefore, the acceleration of the metal safe will be

acceleration of the safe= $\frac{F_{Net}}{M}$

or

acceleration of the safe= $\frac{216.48}{108}$

or

acceleration of the safe= $2.00 m/s^2$

Hence, the acceleration of the metal safe will be 2.00 m/s²

A 5 kg ball of clay is moving with a speed of 25 m/s directly toward a 10 kg ball of clay which is at rest. The two clay balls c

Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

8.3m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

mass of clay ball = 5kg

Speed of clay ball = 25m/s

mass of clay ball at rest = 10kg

speed of clay ball at rest = 0m/s

Unknown:

Velocity after collision = ?

Solution:

Since the balls stick together, this is an inelastic collision:

m1v1 + m2v2 = v(m1 + m2)

5(25) + 10(0) = v (5 + 10)

125 = 15v

v = 8.3m/s
