Answer:

Moving the spacecraft against the magnetic force provided the energy needed to launch it. The energy expended to move a magnet against a magnetic force is stored in the magnetic field as potential energy.

Answer:

Have a blessed day!

Explanation:

The energy to launch the spacecraft came from moving the spacecraft against the magnetic force. The energy used to move a magnet against a magnetic force is stored as potential energy in the magnetic field. This magnetic force can convert potential energy stored in the magnetic field to kinetic energy.

The nine ring wraiths want to fly from barad-dur to rivendell. rivendell is directly north of barad-dur. the dark tower reports

Katarina [22]

The west constituent of their sequence needs to cancel out 58 mph crosswind. Subsequently a northwest direction is a 45-degree angle up to even with the destination. That is the third point out of the triangle and the right angle is at the destination. The top side is the west constituent of their flight the vertical side is their resultant travel and the hypotenuse is their definite distance flown. Since the 58 mph crosswind was negated by flying northwest, the distance from the beginning to the destination must be the same distance as the west component of their travel. The hypotenuse is square root of twice the side since it has 2 identical sides.

c = sqrt (58^2 + 58^2) = sqrt (6728) = 82.02

Alternative solution:

c = sqrt (2) * 58 = 1.414 * 58 = 82.02

Therefore, they have to fly 82.02 mph

A coffee filter of mass 1.2 grams dropped from a height of 1 m reaches the ground with a speed of 0.8 m/s. How much kinetic ener

iren [92.7K]

<u>Answer:</u> The energy gained by the air molecules is 0.011 J.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Law of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor be destroyed but it can only be transformed from one form to another form.

Here, the potential energy of the coffee filter is getting converted into kinetic energy of the coffee filter and some energy is lost by it which is gained by the air molecules in the form of kinetic energy.

So, calculating the potential energy of coffee filter, we use the equation:

P = mgh

where,

m = mass of coffee filter = 1.2 g = $1.2\times 10^{-3}kg$ (Conversion used: 1 kg = 1000 g)

g = acceleration due to gravity = $9.8m/s^2$

h = height of coffee filter = 1 m

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$P=1.2\times 10^{-3}kg\times 9.8m/s^2\times 1m\\\\P=1.176\times 10^{-2}J$

Calculating the kinetic energy of coffee filter, we use the equation:

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

where,

m = mass of coffee filter = 1.2 g = $1.2\times 10^{-3}kg$

v = speed of coffee filter = 0.8 m/s

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$E=\frac{1}{2}\times 1.2\times 10^{-3}kg\times (0.8m/s)^2\\\\E=3.84\times 10^{-4}J$

As, energy lost by coffee filter = energy gained by air molecules

So, energy lost by coffee filter = Potential energy - Kinetic energy

Energy lost by coffee filter = $(1.176\times 10^{-2})-(3.84\times 10^{-4})=0.011J$

Hence, the energy gained by the air molecules is 0.011 J.

1. Which wave refracts?

Digiron [165]

Answer:

I want to say your answer is A) an ocean wave approaching the shore at an angle. But not 100% sure. I'm so sorry if it's wrong I really tried to figure it out.

Explanation:

Refraction of waves involves a change in the direction of waves as they pass from one medium to another. Refaction , or the bending of the path of the waves, is accompanied by a change in speed and wavelength of the waves. Thus, if water waves are passing from deep water into shallow water, they will slow down. ( This is what I read on google maybe it'll help you out).
