Help please:Calculate the mechanical energy of a bird flying at a speed of 10 m / s at an altitude of 15 m. If its mass is 150 g

and the influence of gravitational force is 9.81 m / s²?​

Mass of the bird(m) = 150 g = 0.15 kg

Speed (v) = 10 m/s

Kinetic Energy = \frac{1}{2}m v^{2} = \frac{1}{2} 0.15 (10)^{2} = 7.5 J

Altitude (h) = 15 m

Gravitational Potential Energy = (0.15)(9.81)(15) = 22.0725 J

Mechanical Energy = Kinetic Energy + Potential Energy = 7.5 + 22.0725

= 29.5725 J

Spiders may "tune" strands of their webs to give an enhanced response at frequencies corresponding to the frequencies at which d
Bingel [31]

Answer:

0.0000167283525619 N

Explanation:

\rho = Density of silk = 1300 kg/m³

d = Diameter = 0.002 mm

r = Radius = 0.001 mm

l = Length = 16 cm

f = Frequency = 200 Hz

Mass of the string is

m=\rho V\\\Rightarrow m=\rho Al\\\Rightarrow m=1300\times \pi (0.001\times 10^{-3})^2\times 0.16\\\Rightarrow m=6.5345127195\times 10^{-10}\ kg

Frequency is given by

f=\dfrac{1}{2l}\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{m/l}}\\\Rightarrow T=4lf^2m\\\Rightarrow T=4\times 0.16\times 200^2\times 6.5345127195\times 10^{-10}\\\Rightarrow T=0.0000167283525619\ N

The tension on the string is 0.0000167283525619 N

Seen through a traditional optical telescope, the space between stars and galaxies is pitch black. But, with a radio telescope,
Gemiola [76]

That's the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB). (D)

It doesn't "provide evidence for the ... Theory". The Big Bang theory is the best explanation (so far) for the CMB and a lot of other observations.

Evidence isn't used to prove theories. Theories are attempts to explain evidence.

Suppose that the inverse market demand for silicone replacement tips for Sony earbud headphones is p ​= pN ​- 0.1Q, where p is t
lbvjy [14]

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

a

   The effect of a change in the price of a new pair of headphones on the equilibrium price of replacement tips​ ( ​dp/dpN​) is

                   \frac{\delta p}{\delta p_N} =1

b

 The value of Q and p at equilibruim is

          Q_e = 250    and    p_d = 5

The consumer surplus is  C= 3125

The producer surplus  is   P = 375

Explanation:

      From the question we are told that

           The inverse market demand is  p_d = p_N -0.1Q

                The inverse supply function is     p_s = 2+ 0.012Q

a

The effect of change in the price  is mathematically given as

                  \frac{\delta p}{\delta p_N}

Now differntiating the inverse market demand function with respect to p_N

We get that  

                   \frac{\delta p}{\delta p_N} =1

b

   We are told that p_N =$30

        Therefore the inverse market demand becomes

                             p_d = 30 -0.1Q

At  equilibrium

                  p_d = p_s

So we have

               30 -0.1Q_e = 2+ 0.012Q_e

Where Q_e is the quantity at equilibrium

                    28 = 0.112Q_e

                     Q_e = \frac{28}{0.112}

                    Q_e = 250

Substituting the value of  Q into the equation for the inverse market demand function

                p_d = 30 - 0.1 (250 )

                    p_d = 5

Looking at the equation for p_d \ and \ p_s we see that

     For  Q =  0

             p_d = 30

             p_s =2

 And  for Q =  250

                 p_d = 5

                 p_s = 5

Hence the consumer surplus is mathematically evaluated as

           C = \frac{1}{2} * Q_e * (30 -5)

Substituting value

        C = \frac{1}{2} * 250 (30-5)

           C= 3125

And

  The  producer surplus is mathematically evaluated as

                    P = \frac{1}{2} *250 * (5-2)

                    P = 375

A pendulum has 918 J of potential energy at the highest point of a swing. How much kinetic energy will it have at the bottom of
GREYUIT [131]

The kinetic energy at the bottom of the swing is also 918 J.

Assume the origin of the coordinate system to be at the lowest point of the pendulum's swing. A pendulum, when raised to the highest point has potential energy since it is raised to a height h above the origin. At the highest point, the pendulum's velocity becomes zero, hence it has no kinetic energy. Its energy at the highest point is wholly potential.

When the pendulum swings down from its highest position, it gains velocity. Hence a part of its potential energy begins to convert itself into kinetic energy. If no dissipative forces such as air resistance exist, then, the law of conservation of energy can be applied to the swing.

Under the action of conservative forces, the total mechanical energy of a system remains constant.This means that the sum of the potential and kinetic energies of a body remains constant.

When the pendulum reaches the lowest point of its swing, it is at the origin of the chosen coordinate system. Its vertical displacement from the origin is zero, hence its potential energy with respect to the origin is zero. Therefore the entire potential energy of 918 J should have been converted into kinetic energy, according to the law of conservation of energy.

Thus, the kinetic energy of the pendulum at the lowest point of its swing is equal to the potential energy it had at its highest point, which is equal to <u>918 J.</u>

True or false as heat and pressure decreases one type of metamorphic rock will transform into another type
dezoksy [38]

Answer: True

Explanation:  Metamorphism is the changing of rocks by heat and pressure. During this process, rocks change either physically and/or chemically. They change so much that they become an entirely new rock. Figure 4.22: The platy layers in this large outcrop of metamorphic rock show the effects of pressure on rocks during metamorphism.
