Answer:

\displaystyle KE = 32 \ J

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Energy</u>

Kinetic Energy Formula: \displaystyle KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

  • <em>KE</em> is in J
  • <em>m</em> is in kg
  • <em>v</em> is in m/s

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

<em>Identify variables</em>

<em>m</em> = 2 kg

<em>v</em> = 4 m/s

<u>Step 2: Find KE</u>

  1. Substitute in variables [Kinetic Energy Formula]:                                          \displaystyle KE = (2 \ kg)(4 \ m/s)^2
  2. Simplify:                                                                                                            \displaystyle KE = 32 \ J

Calculate the location xcm of the center of mass of the Earth-Moon system. Use a coordinate system in which the center of the Ea
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

The center of mass of the Earth-Moon system is 4.673 kilometers away from center of Earth.

Explanation:

Let suppose that planet and satellite can be treated as particles. The masses of Earth and Moon (m_{E}, m_{M}) are 5.972\times 10^{24}\,kg and 7.349\times 10^{22}\,kg, respectively. The distance between centers is 384,403 kilometers. The location of the center of mass can be found by using weighted averages:

\bar x = \frac{x_{E}\cdot m_{E}+x_{M}\cdot m_{M}}{m_{E}+m_{M}}

If x_{E} = 0\,km and x_{M} = 384,403\,km, then:

\bar x = \frac{(0\,km)\cdot (5.972\times 10^{24}\,kg)+(384,403\,km)\cdot (7.349\times 10^{22}\,kg)}{5.972\times 10^{24}\,kg+7.349\times 10^{22}\,kg}

\bar x = 4.673\,km

The center of mass of the Earth-Moon system is 4.673 kilometers away from center of Earth.

What is the source of all mechanical waves?
frutty [35]

Answer:

The correct answer is A. Vibration.

Explanation:

Mechanical waves is formed by the oscillation of matter and therefore transfer energy from one medium to the other. Unlike electromagnetic waves, mechanical waves need some medium to propagate. It requires an initial energy input and thus carries this energy when it propagates. There are three types of mechanical waves namely transverse waves, longitudinal waves and surface waves. Examples of such waves are sound waves, water waves and seismic waves.

Pls help ASAP. This is astronomy but there isn't an option :)
marin [14]

From largest to smallest they are: Universe, galaxy, solar system, star, planet, moon and asteroid.

Explanation:Let's describe them from smallest to largest. In fact the size order is not exact as there are exceptions.An asteroid is a rocky body which lies in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. They are typically quite small object. The largest asteroid Ceres has been reclassified as a dwarf planet.A moon is typically a rocky body which is in orbit around a planet. Some moons such as our Moon are quite large and are typically bigger than asteroid. Some moons can actually be smaller than some asteroids.A planet is a nearly spherical body which is in orbit around the Sun. Planets are larger than moons.A star is what planets orbit around. It is the source of light and heat. Our Sun is a star which is many times bigger than all of the planets.A solar system is a star and all of its planets, asteroids, comets and other bodies. It is significantly bigger than a star.A galaxy, such as our Milky Way Galaxy, is a collection of solar systems orbiting around a central core. Most galaxies have a supermassive black hole at their centres.Galaxies also form clusters which are large scale structures.The universe is everything. It contains billions of galaxies. Lots of information RIGHT!!!!

How does heat energy move by convection when a cook heats a pot of water?
laiz [17]

The correct choice is

B. Particles at the bottom of the water carry heat energy to the top of the water.

when pot of water is heater, the bottom of pot gets heated. the particles of water in contact with the bottom of the pot gets heat through conduction. after getting heat, these particles of water near the bottom, move away towards top and their position is taken by cooler particles from top. that way heat travels
