Is magnetic a form of energy

Sergeu [11.5K]

Hey there! :D

Yes, indeed! Magnetic is a form of energy. It pushes or pulls to forces together. A lot of this energy is through waves, and opposite and like poles.

I hope this helps!

A hockey puck on a frozen pond is given an initial speed of 20.0 m/s. If the puck always remains on the ice and slides 115 m bef

bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

μ_k = 0.1773

Explanation:

We are given;

Initial velocity;u = 20 m/s

Final velocity;v = 0 m/s (since it comes to rest)

Distance before coming to rest;s = 115 m

Let's find the acceleration using Newton's second law of motion;

v² = u² + 2as

Making a the subject, we have;

a = (v² - u²)/2s

Plugging relevant values;

a = (0² - 20²)/(2 × 115)

a = -400/230

a = -1.739 m/s²

From the question, the only force acting on the puck in the x direction is the force of friction. Since friction always opposes motion, we see that:

F_k = −ma - - - (1)

We also know that F_k is defined by;

F_k = μ_k•N

Where;

μ_k is coefficient of kinetic friction

N is normal force which is (mg)

Since gravity acts in the negative direction, the normal force will be positive.

Thus;

F_k = μ_k•mg - - - (2)

where g is acceleration due to gravity.

Thus,equating equation 1 and 2,we have;

−ma = μ_k•mg

m will cancel out to give;

-a = μ_k•g

μ_k = -a/g

g has a constant value of 9.81 m/s², so;

μ_k = - (-1.739/9.81)

μ_k = 0.1773

Synchronous communications satellites are placed in a circular orbit that is 3.59 107 m above the surface of the earth. What is

suter [353]

Answer: $0.223 m/s^{2}$

Explanation:

We can solve this with the Law of Universal Gravitation and knowing the acceleration due gravity $g$ of an object above the surface of the planet decreases with the distance (height) of this object from the center of the planet.

Well, according to the law of universal gravitation:

$F=G\frac{m_{E}m}{r^2}$ (1)

Where:

$F$ is the module of the force exerted between both bodies

$G=6.67(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}}$ is the gravitational constant

$m_{E}=5.98(10)^{24} kg$ is the mass of the Earth

$m$ are the mass of each communications satellite

$r=R_{E}+h$ is the distance between the center of the Earth and the satellite

$R_{E}=6.38(10)^{6} m$ is the radius of the Earth

$h=3.59(10)^{7} m$ is the height of the satellite, measured from the Earth's surface

On the other hand, we know according to <u>Newton's 2nd law of motion:</u>

$F=mg$ (2)

Combining (1) and (2):

$G\frac{m_{E}m}{r^2}=mg$ (3)

Isolating $g$ :

$g=\frac{G M_{E}}{r^2}$ (4)

Remembering $r=R_{E}+h$ :

$g=\frac{G M_{E}}{(R_{E}+h)^2}$ (5)

$g=\frac{(6.67(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}})(5.98(10)^{24} kg)}{(6.38(10)^{6} m+3.59(10)^{7} m)^2}$

Finally:

$g=0.223 m/s^{2}$

skateboarder, starting from rest, rolls down a 13.5 m ramp. When she arrives at the bottom of the ramp her speed is 7.37 m/s. If

scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

1.7 m/s²

Explanation:

d = length of the ramp = 13.5 m

v₀ = initial speed of the skateboarder = 0 m/s

v = final speed of the skateboarder = 7.37 m/s

a = acceleration

Using the equation

v² = v₀² + 2 a d

7.37² = 0² + 2 a (13.5)

a = 2.01 m/s²

θ = angle of the incline relative to ground = 29.9

a' = Component of acceleration parallel to the ground

Component of acceleration parallel to the ground is given as

a' = a Cosθ

a' = 2.01 Cos29.9

a' = 1.7 m/s²

The engine in your car is sometimes called: A. A 2-stroke engine

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:A

Explanation:

Engines in car are 4 stroke engine . A 4-stroke engine is internal combustion engine which derives its power by four piston strokes . Internal combustion means combustion takes inside the engine i.e. is in cylinder.

There are process in 4 stroke engine

Intake: Intake of air
Compression:compression of intake air to a high pressure
Combustion:Fuel is injected and burned to get power
Exhaust:removal of exhaust gases after combustion
