Answer:

FALSE

Explanation:

As the ball is thrown in air

then the velocity of the ball has two components

v_x = v cos\theta

v_y = v sin\theta

now we also know that the acceleration due to gravity is vertically downwards  which is opposite in the direction of vertical velocity

So the acceleration due to gravity will decrease the vertical speed and the horizontal speed will remain constant

So here we can say that the vertical speed sill become minimum as soon as the ball will reach the highest point of its path

So the kinetic energy of the ball is minimum when ball will reach the highest point of its path

So the given statement is FALSE

F - False.

Its greatest kinetic energy is at the point of release.

It has the least kinetic energy, zero, at its highest point in its path.

Write a explanation explaining why red is a beautiful color is not a hypothesis
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

Please find the explanation below

Explanation:

A hypothesis in science is a testable explanation that is yet to be tested via experimentation. It is a predictive statement or suggested solution to an observation. A hypothesis aims at finding a possible explanation/answer to a question, which is subject to testing. One important aspect of formulating a hypothesis is that it tends to connect the independent variable with the dependent/measurable variable.

The statement "RED IS A BEAUTIFUL COLOR" cannot be considered a hypothesis because it does not aim to answer a question that can undergo experimental testing. This statement can not be measured via experimentation. The statement is not a possible answer to a question but rather a personal opinion about something.

A car is strapped to a rocket (combined mass = 661 kg), and its kinetic energy is 66,120 J.
labwork [276]

Answer:

9.4 m/s

Explanation:

According to the work-energy theorem, the work done by external forces on a system is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the system.

Therefore we can write:

W=K_f -K_i

where in this case:

W = -36,733 J is the work done by the parachute (negative because it is opposite to the motion)

K_i = 66,120 J is the initial kinetic energy of the car

K_f is the final kinetic energy

Solving,

K_f = K_i + W=66,120+(-36,733)=29387 J

The final kinetic energy of the car can be written as

K_f = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

m = 661 kg is its mass

v is its final speed

Solving for v,

v=\sqrt{\frac{2K_f}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(29,387)}{661}}=9.4 m/s

In the compound MgS, the sulfide ion has 1. lost one electrons. 2. lost two electrons. 3. gained one electron. 4. gained two ele
never [62]

Answer:

4.has gained two electrons

Explanation:

There exist electrovalent bonding the compound MgS . In electrovalent bonding, there is a transfer of electrons from the metal to non-metal.

Magnesium atom has an atomic number 12 and its electron configuration is 2,8,2

Sulfur atom , a non-metal has atomic number of 16 and its electron configuration = 2,8,6

This means that magnesium as a metal needs to loose two electrons from its valence shell to attain its stable structure.Also sulfur requires two more electron to achieve its octet structure.

Hence a transfer of electrons will take place from magnesium atom to sulfur atom, sulfur gaining two electrons.

A car is moving north on a freeway. If a bug is flying south on the freeway, is the momentum of the bug positive or negative?
faltersainse [42]

Negative

Because the car is moving up and the bug is moving down. but it also depends on the weather so choice between one of those two I think is Negative but I may be wrong.

An electron is ejected from the cathode by a photon with an energy slightly greater than the work function of the cathode. How w
Ksivusya [100]

It will be approximately equal.

<h3>How will the final kinetic energy change?</h3>

We can infer that all of the energy in the electron is Potential energy (PE) because the energy provided by the photon is hardly enough to outweigh the work function.

It will gain kinetic energy (KE) as it advances in the direction of the anode because it is moving through an electric field. All of the PE will have been transformed to KE by the time it reaches the anode.

According to the question

K = hf - W

W = Work function

The energy of photons is comparable. After conversion, there was only a little amount of KE remaining.

Therefore, PE (W) essentially equals KE (K).

It will about be equal.
