Describe the main energy transformations that occur when an apple falls from a tree? ​

Physics
1 answer:
blondinia [14]3 years ago

Answer:

Kinetic energy

Explanation:

When an apple falls from a tree it has to do with the energy from gravity. Gravity energy turns into kinetic energy once its in motion.

Sorry if im wrong

A cubical box measuring 1.29 m on each side contains a monatomic ideal gas at a pressure of 2.0 atm How much thermal energy do t
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

a) U = 652.545\,kJ, b) v \approx 659.568\,\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

a) According to the First Law of Thermodinamics, the system is not reporting any work, mass or heat interactions. Besides, let consider that such box is rigid and, therefore, heat contained inside is the consequence of internal energy.

Q = U

The internal energy for a monoatomic ideal gas is:

U = \frac{3}{2} \cdot n \cdot R_{u} \cdot T

Let assume that cubical box contains just one kilomole of monoatomic gas. Then, the temperature is determined from the Equation of State for Ideal Gases:

T = \frac{P\cdot V}{n\cdot R_{u}}

T = \frac{(202.65\,kPa)\cdot(1.29\,m)^{3}}{(1\,kmole)\cdot(8.314\,\frac{kPa\cdot m^{3}}{kmole\cdot K} )}

T = 52.325\,K

The thermal energy contained by the gas is:

U = \frac{3}{2}\cdot (1\,kmole)\cdot (8.314\,\frac{kPa\cdot m^{3}}{kmole\cdot K})\cdot (52.325\,K)

U = 652.545\,kJ

b) The physical model for the cat is constructed from Work-Energy Theorem:

U = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m_{cat} \cdot v^{2}

The speed of the cat is obtained by isolating the respective variable and the replacement of every known variable by numerical values:

v = \sqrt{\frac{2 \cdot U}{m_{cat}}}

v = \sqrt{\frac{2\cdot (652.545 \times 10^{3}\,J)}{3\,kg} }

v \approx 659.568\,\frac{m}{s}

Why is the use of carbon-14 limited
Luden [163]

Carbon-14 is naturally created with the interaction of high-energy cosmic rays with atmospheric nitrogen. As part of the atmosphere, living organisms take in the carbon and incorporate this into living tissues. As long as the organism is alive and breathing, it keeps adding new carbon-14. When the organism dies, it stops gaining carbon-14 - or anything else, of course.


Carbon-14 is slightly radioactive, with a half-life of about 5700 years. If we assume that the atmospheric production of carbon-14 has been steady for the last 100,000 years, we can calculate the approximate age of when the organism died by determining what percentage of carbon-14 still exists in the dead material.


Paleo-archaeologists and anthropologists use this information when studying old cultures and civilizations.
