Answer:

The electric potential from a single charge is defined to be zero an infinite distance from the charge, and the electric potential associated with two charges is also defined to be zero when the charges are infinitely far apart.

The brick wall (of thermal conductivity 1.12 W/m · ◦ C) of a building has dimensions of 2.8 m by 5 m and is 8 cm thick. How much
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

If H be the heat flowing in time t through an area of A having thickness d

H = k A x ( θ₂ - θ₁ ) t / d  , k is thermal conductivity , ( θ₂ - θ₁ ) is temperature difference of walls

putting the given values

= (1.12 x 2.8x 5 x 9 x 16.7 x 60 x 60) / .08

= 1.06 x 10⁸ J .

After an ice storm, ice falls from one of the top floors of a 65-story building. The ice falls freely under the influence of gra
adell [148]

Answer:

The correct answer is a) The kinetic energy of the ice increases by equal amounts for equal distances.

Explanation:

The law of conservation states that the energy cannot be created nor be destroyed but can be converted from one form to another.Before the ice even starts falling we already know that it possesses energy in the form of potential energy given by P=mgh where m is the mass of the ice , g is the acceleration due to gravity and h is the height of the ice above the ground whatever that may be, since a number is not given here.As the ice falls the energy is converted from potential energy to kinetic energy. We notice one thing about the equation for the potential energy P , which is that it is not only directly proportional to h but also is linear in h as well(which is the main reason why a) is correct) which means that if the ice drops by 1 meter the potential energy it will have lost would be ΔPE=mgΔh=-mg, where Δh is the change in its height which is 1 meter here.And according to the principle of conservation of energy this energy must be converted to kinetic energy so the ΔKE=-ΔPE=mg, and this process repeats and for each meter it falls, it picks up the same amount of kinetic energy equaling mg(which is the same as the loss in PE per each meter of fall). So a 2 meter decrease in height will result in an increase in KE of 2mg, a 3 meter decrease in height will result in an increase in KE of 3mg. gain in kinetic energy only depends on the drop in height, which is true irrespective of where the ice might happen to be in its journey close to the top or the bottom. So the drop in height of lets say x at any point in the journey will result in the same increase in KE = ΔKE = mgx. Which proves part a) to be correct.

A model train engine was moving at a constant speed on a straight horizontal track. As the engine moved​ along, a marble was fir
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

The marble was moving in a projectile and the speed of the engine was 2.716 m/s

Explanation:

The vertical component of the marble's flight path relative to the train

is given by the equation y(t) = v*t - (4.9)*t^2,

where, v is the initial upward velocity of the marble relative to the train.  

So with y(1) = v - 4.9 = 0 we have  

v = 4.9 m/s.

The marble will reach maximum height after 0.5 seconds, at which the

height will be y(0.5) = (4.9)*(0.5) - (4.9)*(0.5)^2 = (4.9)*(0.25) = 1.225 m.

Now,  the marble has a vertical velocity component of 4.9 m/s and a horizontal velocity component

of V m/s such that tan(61) = 4.9 / V

V = 4.9 / tan(61) = 2.716 m/s

This horizontal velocity component of the marble is the same as the

speed of the train i.e. 2.716 m/s.

What is Marie's instantaneous speed at 20 minutes in miles/min?
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

0.25miles/min

Explanation:

Instantaneous speed of a person or an object is its speed at a particular moment usually at a period of time.

The speedometer of a car reports the instantaneous speed.

 It can be mathematically expressed as;

        Instantaneous speed  = \frac{distance}{time}

At 20min the distance covered is 5miles;

    Instantaneous speed  = \frac{5 miles }{20mins}   = 0.25miles/min
