Answer: A, B, and D,

C is incorrect because continental drift takes several centuries to move the tectonic plates witch is not an immediate impact leaving you with A,B, and D.

Explain the effects of force giving example

Pie

Answer:

1) Can change the state of an object(rest to motion/ motion to rest):For example, pushing a heavy stone in order to move it. 2) May change the speed of an object if it is already moving. 4) May bring about a change in the shape of an object. For example, blowing air in balloon.

A 49 kg bear slides, from rest, 11 m down a lodgepole pine tree, moving with a speed of 3.3 m/s just before hitting the ground.

hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

a) $\Delta U_g=-5.3kJ$

b) $K=0.27kJ$

c) $F_f=0.45kN$

Explanation:

the gravitational potential energy is given by:

$U_g=m.g.h\\$

$\Delta U_g=m.g.h_f-m.g.h_i\\\Delta U_g=49kg*9.8m/s^2*(0m-11m)\\\Delta U_g=-5.3kJ$

The kinetic energy is given by:

$K=\frac{1}{2}m.v^2\\$

the initial kinetic energy is zero because the motion started from rest, so:

$K=\frac{1}{2}*49kg*(3.3m/s^2)^2\\K=0.27kJ$

applying the conservation of energy theorem:

$U_g-W_f=K_f\\W_f=-(\Delta K+\Delta U)\\W_F=5.3kJ-0.27kJ\\W_F=-5.0kJ$

The work done by the friction force is given by:

$W_f=F_f.h.cos(\theta)\\$

the angle of the force is 180 degrees because it's against the movement:

$F_f=\frac{W_f}{h.cos(\theta)}\\\\F_f=\frac{-5.0kJ}{11m.cos(180^o)}\\\\F_f=0.45kN$

A mass spectrometer applies a voltage of 2.00 kV to accelerate a singly charged positive ion. A magnetic field of B = 0.400 T th

N76 [4]

The mass of the ion is 5.96 X 10⁻²⁵ kg

<u>Explanation:</u>

The electrical energy given to the ion Vq will be changed into kinetic energy $\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

As the ion moves with velocity v in a magnetic field B then the magnetic Lorentz force Bqv will be balanced by centrifugal force $\frac{mv^2}{r}$ .

So,

$Vq = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$

and

$Bqv = \frac{mv^2}{r}$

Right from these eliminating v, we can derive

$m = \frac{B^2r^2q}{2V}$

On substituting the value, we get:

$m = \frac{(0.4)^2X (0.305)^2 X1.602X 10^-^1^9}{2X 2000}\\\\$

m = 5.96 X 10⁻²⁵ kg.

Which statement BEST describes acceleration?

Mashutka [201]

C) Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity of an object. Velocity is the speed and direction of an object so acceleration is used to describe the rate of change. I hope this helps!!
