Answer:

Mass Kinetic Energy and Jules

Explanation:

The train in question is big and heavy and a car is decently heavy but say a train moving at 55 mph can plow through a car and a car driving at 55mph driving at a train will be stopped dead in its tracks. This is because newtons laws of motion specifically an object in motion will stay in motion unless its opposed. The train also has a payload behind it meaning it hurts with force while a car doesn't have to much mass behind it. The train takes loner to stop for as it's acceleration as well as it's deceleration are very slow because its huge and takes a lot of force to stop it while a car is very centralized and compact when it comes to weight and its brakes are usually effective at stopping at 55 mph in about 2 to 6 seconds while a train might stay moving for a good 35 seconds. The force behind the train is immense for as even if the wheels don't spin at all the train will still move since the force behind it is great and a cars tires have a lot of grip and not a lot mass which plays into the force the car has so it can stop simply.

PLEAS HELP.

A: put an atom on a poster in the exhibit
 Good luck. The poster itself is made of trillions of trillions of trillions
 of atoms. You could not see the extra one any easier than you could
 see the ones that are already there, and even if you could, it would be
 lost in the crowd.

B: use a life size drawing of an atom
 Good luck. Nobody has ever seen an atom. Atoms are too small
 to see. That's a big part of the reason that nobody knew they exist
 until less than 200 years ago.

D: set up a microscope so that visitors can view atoms
 Good luck. Atoms are way too small to see with a microscope.

C: Display a large three dimensional model of an atom.
 Finally ! A suggestion that makes sense.
 If something is too big or too small to see, show a model of it
 that's just the right size to see.

A heat engine exhausts 3 000 J of heat while performing 1 500 J of useful work. What is the efficiency of the engine

amid [387]

efficiency=work output/work input×100

since it exhausts(use up)3000j of heat that's the work input and the 1500j is the work input

efficiency=1500/3000×100

=50%

I would like help with this physics problem

Darina [25.2K]

(a) This is a freefall problem in disguise - when the ball returns to its original position, it will be going at the same speed but in the opposite direction. So the ball's final velocity is the negative of its initial velocity.

Recall that

$v_f=v_i+at$

We have $v_f=-v_i$ , so that

$-2v_i=at\implies-2\left(8\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)=\left(-2\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)t\implies t=8\,\mathrm s$

(b) The speed of the ball at the start and at the end of the roll are the same 8 m/s, so the average speed is also 8 m/s.

(d) The position of the ball $x_f$ at time $t$ is given by

$x_f=x_i+v_it+\dfrac12at^2$

Take the starting position to be the origin, $x_i=0$ . Then after 6 seconds,

$x_f=\left(8\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)(6\,\mathrm s)+\dfrac12\left(-2\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(6\,\mathrm s)^2=42\,\mathrm m$

so the ball is 42 m away from where it started.

We're not asked to say in which direction it's moving at this point, but just out of curiosity we can determine that too:

$x_f-x_i=\dfrac{v_i+v_f}2t\implies42\,\mathrm m=\dfrac{8\,\frac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}+v_f}2(6\,\mathrm s)\implies v_f=6\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}$

Since the velocity is positive, the ball is still moving up the incline.

Look at the picture above and scientifically explain how eating a hamburger can cause energy transformation in three ways within

sergejj [24]

Answer:

CLAIM: When you eat the hamburger, your body uses it and breaks it down which is chemical energy than use that food for energy for mechanical energy which makes thermal energy

EVIDENCE: This happens every day to people across the world and also it is scientifically proven

REASONING: The reason why this evidence supports it is because as I said it happens everyday and when you feel energized after and apple after you were lazy that just happened
