Explanation:
<u>Elastic Potential Energy
</u>
Is the energy stored in an elastic material like a spring of constant k, in which case the energy is proportional to the square of the change of length Δx and the constant k.
Given a rubber band of a spring constant of k=5700 N/m that is holding potential energy of PE=8600 J, it's required to find the change of length under these conditions.
Solving for Δx:
Substituting:
Calculating:
Answer:
d. The magnitude of the work done by the earth on the satellite is non zero
Explanation:
The work done is equal to the product of the force and the distance moved in the direction of the force, the force and the distance act perpendicular to one another, therefore no work is done in the circular motion of the movement of the earth.
<h2>
Answer: an underground lake</h2>
Explanation:
In general, sound (mechanical waves) travels faster in solids than in liquids, and faster in liquids than in gases. This is because <u>the speed of the mechanical waves is determined by a relationship between the elastic properties of the medium </u>in which they are propagated and the mass per unit volume of the medium (that is:<u>density</u>).
In other words: The speed of sound varies depending on the medium through which the sound waves travel.
So, if we are told the sound wave initially had a speed of 4,000 m/s and it suddenly decreases to 1,500 m/s, this means the sound waves passed from a solid medium to a liquid medium.
Hence, the correct option is: an underground lake.
