Answer:

the height of the is 6 m.

Explanation:

Given;

potential energy of the object, P.E = 50 J

Height of fall of the object, H = 12 m

Determine the mass of the object, m

P.E = mgh

m = (P.E) / (gh)

m = (50) / (9.8 x 12)

m = 0.425 kg

Let the height of the object at 25 J = h₂

mgh₂ = 25

h₂ = (25) / (mg)

h₂ = (25) / (0.425 x 9.8)

h₂ = 6 m

Therefore, the height of the object at 25 J is 6 m.

Does the KE of a car change more when it accelerates from 22 km/h to 32 km/h or when it accelerates from 32 km/h to 42 km/h
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

The change in kinetic energy (KE) of the car is more in the second case.

Explanation:

Let the mass of the car = m

initial velocity of the first case, u = 22 km/h = 6.11 m/s

final velocity of the first case, v = 32 km/h = 8.89 m/s

change in kinetic energy (K.E) = ¹/₂m(v² - u²)

                                          ΔK.E = ¹/₂m(8.89² - 6.11²)

                                                    = 20.85m J

 

initial velocity of the second case, u = 32 km/h = 8.89 m/s

final velocity of the second case, v = 42 km/h = 11.67 m/s

change in kinetic energy (K.E) = ¹/₂m(v² - u²)

                                          ΔK.E = ¹/₂m(11.67² - 8.89²)

                                                    = 28.58m J

The change in kinetic energy (KE) of the car is more in the second case.

When talking about the speeds of atoms in a gas you must refer to the average speed because
cluponka [151]

Answer:

An Atom's individual speed will change as it collides with other atoms, so we have to use an average.

Explanation:

In a gas a single atoms does an assortment of things during its time in the gas—sometimes it collides with an other atom gaining a lot of speed, sometimes losing a lot of speed in the collision, and sometimes just moving freely. Therefore: the motion of one individual atom is unpredictable, and it cannot be  representative of all the the atoms in a gas, which is why we must average over all speeds of all atoms to find an average speed that allows us to calculate other quantities like temperature and pressure of the gas.

Hence, the second option <em>"an Atom's individual speed will change as it collides with other atoms, so we have to use an average" </em>stands correct.

What is the cause of most waves and how can this change waves' characteristics?
Tanzania [10]

There are three main factors that affect wave formation: wind velocity, fetch, and duration.

Waves are most commonly caused by wind. Wind-driven waves, or surface waves, are created by the friction between wind and surface water. As wind blows across the surface of the ocean or a lake, the continual disturbance creates a wave crest.
