Which of the following accurately describe some aspect of gravitational waves? Select all that apply.

steposvetlana [31]

<h2>Answers:</h2>

-The first direct detection of gravitational waves came in 2015

-The existence of gravitational waves is predicted by Einstein's general theory of relativity

-Gravitational waves carry energy away from their sources of emission

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Gravitational waves were discovered (theoretically) by Albert Einstein in 1916 and "observed" for the first time in direct form in 2015 (although the results were published in 2016).

These gravitational waves are fluctuations or disturbances of space-time produced by a massive accelerated body, modifying the distances and the dimensions of objects in an imperceptible way.

In this context, an excellent example is the system of two neutron stars that orbit high speeds, producing a deformation that propagates like a wave,<u> in the same way as when a stone is thrown into the water</u>. So, in this sense, gravitational waves carry energy away from their sources .

Therefore, the correct options are D, E and F.

When the same masses are heated by the same amount, which of the following substances will heat up the slowest?

DochEvi [55]

When the same masses are heated by the same amount copper will heat up the fastest. Copper is a good conductor of heat that is why it easily heats up. Gold is not a good conductor of heat because of its stable properties.

Joe and Max shake hands and say goodbye. Joe walks east 0.40 km to a coffee shop, and Max flags a cab and rides north 3.65 km to

katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

3.67 km

Explanation:

Joe distance towards coffee shop is,

$OB=0.40 km$

And the Max distance towards bookstore is,

$OA=3.65 km$

Now the distance between the Joy and Max will be,

By applying pythagorus theorem,

$AB=\sqrt{OB^{2}+OA^{2}}$

Substitute 0.40 km for OB and 3.65 km for OA in the above equation.

$AB=\sqrt{0.40^{2}+3.65^{2}}\\AB=\sqrt{13.4825} \\AB=3.67 km$

Therefore the distance between there destination is 3.67 km.

To calculate the change in kinetic energy, you must know the force as a function of _______. The work done by the force causes t

aliya0001 [1]

To calculate the change in kinetic energy, you must know the force as a function of position. The work done by the force causes the kinetic energy change

Explanation:

The work-energy theorem states that the change in kinetic enegy of an object is equal to the work done on the object:

$\Delta E_k = W$

where the work done is the integral of the force over the position of the object:

$W=\int F(x) dx$

As we see from the formula, the magnitude of the force F(x) can be dependent from the position of the object, therefore in order to solve correctly the integral and find the work done on the object, it is required to know the behaviour of the force as a function of the position, x.
