Answer:
The Answer is B because the material the object is made of, the position, or the color have absolutely nothing to do with gravitational potential energy
Answer:
a. 120 W
b. 28.8 N
Explanation:
To a good approximate, the only external force that does work on a cyclist moving on level ground is the force of air resistance. Suppose a cyclist is traveling at 15 km/h on level ground. Assume he is using 480 W of metabolic power.
a. Estimate the amount of power he uses for forward motion.
b. How much force must he exert to overcome the force of air resistance?
(a)
He is 25% efficient, therefore the cyclist will be expending 25% of his power to drive the bicycle forward
Power = efficiency X metabolic power
= 0.25 X 480
= 120 W
(b)
power if force times the velocity
P = Fv
convert 15 km/h to m/s
v = 15 kmph = 4.166 m/s
F = P/v
= 120/4.166
= 28.8 N
definition of terms
power is the rate at which work is done
force is that which changes a body's state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line
velocity is the change in displacement per unit time.
Answer: d boiling water
Explanation: the water is boiling and bubbling cause the molecules are so fast and they hit off each other
Answer:
156.96 N
Explanation:
F=ma where m is the mass and a is acceleration
Substituting 16 Kg for m and 9.81 m/s2 for g then
F=16*9.81= 156.96 N
Answer:
B. nuclear fusion
Explanation:
Atomic fusion is a process in which two or more lighter nuclei combine to form a heavier nucleus.
The mass of the single nucleus thus formed is lighter than the initial mass.
There is a difference in mass in the heavier nucleus thus formed. According to Einstein's mass-energy equation, the change in mass is equated towards energy.
The energy liberated in the process is called as thermo-nuclear energy.
As in the case of isotopes of hydrogen fuses to form helium, the nuclear reaction is given by relation
₁H³ + ₁H² → ₂He⁴ + ₀n¹ + energy
Thus, the nuclear reaction of hydrogen isotopes forming helium is nuclear fusion.
