Hi there!

We can use the following:

W = ΔKE = F · d

Find the work done on the cart:

W = 200 · 10 = 2000 J

Now, this is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the object. Its initial kinetic energy is 0 J since it starts from rest, so:

2000J = KEf - KEi

KE is given as:

KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

2000J = 1/2(55)v²

4000 = 55v²

√(4000/55) = 8.53 m/s

What is the time constant of a 9.0-nm-thick membrane surrounding a 0.040-mm-diameter spherical cell? Assume the resistivity of t
yawa3891 [41]

Given Information:

Diameter of spherical cell = 0.040 mm

thickness = L = 9 nm

Resistivity =  ρ = 3.6×10⁷ Ω⋅m

Dielectric constant = k = 9.0

Required Information:

time constant = τ = ?

Answer:

time constant = 2.87×10⁻³ seconds

Explanation:

The time constant is given by

τ = RC

Where R is the resistance and C is the capacitance.

We know that resistivity of of any material is given by

ρ = RA/L

R =  ρL/A

Where area of spherical cell is given by

A = 4πr²

A = 4π(d/2)²

A = 4π(0.040×10⁻³/2)²

A = 5.026×10⁻⁹ m²

The resistance becomes

R =  (3.6×10⁷*9×10⁻⁹)/5.026×10⁻⁹

R = 6.45×10⁷ Ω

The capacitance of the cell membrane is given by

C = kεoA/L

Where k = 9 is the dielectric constant and εo = 8.854×10⁻¹² F/m

C = (9*8.854×10⁻¹²*5.026×10⁻⁹)/9×10⁻⁹

C = 44.5 pF

C = 44.5×10⁻¹² F

Therefore, the time constant is

τ = RC

τ = 6.45×10⁷*44.5×10⁻¹²

τ = 2.87×10⁻³ seconds

A nova occurs when
eimsori [14]

C. hydrogen accreted onto a white dwarf from a close companion rapidly fuses to helium, releasing a large amount of energy.

The accreted material, composed mainly of hydrogen, is compacted on the surface of the white dwarf due to the intense gravitational force on that place. As material accumulates, The white dwarf becomes increasingly hot, until it reaches the critical temperature for ignition of nuclear fusion.

Which statement explains how it is possible to carry books to school without changing the kinetic or potential energy of the boo
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

a. by moving the book without acceleration and keeping the height of the book constant

Explanation:

FOR CONSTANT KINETIC ENERGY:

The kinetic energy of a body depends upon its speed according to its formula:

ΔK.E = (1/2)mΔv²

So, for Δv = 0 m/s

ΔK.E = 0 J

So, for keeping kinetic energy constant, the books must be moved at constant speed without acceleration.

FOR CONSTANT POTENTIAL ENERGY:

The potential energy of a body depends upon its height according to its formula:

ΔP.E = mgΔh

So, for Δh = 0 m/s

ΔP.E = 0 J

So, for keeping potential energy constant, the books must be moved at constant height.

So, the correct option is:

<u>a. by moving the book without acceleration and keeping the height of the book constant</u>

A train travels 77 kilometers in 1 hour, and the 66 kilometers in 1 hour. What is the average speed?
Kipish [7]

Average speed = (total distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)

Total distance = (77km + 66km) = 143 kilometers

Time to cover the distance = 2 hours

Average speed = (143 km) / (2 hours) =  71.5 km per hour
