The energy transformation that is happening in this process is mechanical energy to chemical energy.

<h3>Energy Conversion</h3>

According to conservation of energy, energy can not be distroyed and cannot be created, but can only be transformed from one form to another.

The batteries of some flashlights can be charged by turning a handle. The energy transformation that is happening in this process is mechanical energy to chemical energy. The chemical energy will transform to electrical energy which will eventually transform to light energy.

The turning of the handle is mechanical and the energy in battery is chemical.

Exoplanets (planets outside our solar system) are an active area of modern research. Suppose astronomers find such a planet that

Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

8.829 m/s²

Explanation:

M = Mass of Earth

m = Mass of Exoplanet

$g_e$ = Acceleration due to gravity on Earth = 9.81 m/s²

g = Acceleration due to gravity on Exoplanet

$m=M-0.1M\\\Rightarrow m=0.9M$

$g_e=G\frac{M}{r^2}$

$g=G\frac{0.9M}{r^2}$

Dividing the equations we get

$\frac{g}{g_e}=\frac{G\frac{0.9M}{r^2}}{G\frac{M}{r^2}}\\\Rightarrow \frac{g}{g_e}=0.9\\\Rightarrow g=0.9g_e\\\Rightarrow g=0.9\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow g=8.829\ m/s^2$

Acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the Exoplanet is 8.829 m/s²

Erica (38 kg ) and danny (43 kg ) are bouncing on a trampoline. just as erica reaches the high point of her bounce, danny is mov

AfilCa [17]

<span>2.5 m/s going upward.
In the situation described, Erica and Danny undergo a non-elastic collision which will conserve their combined momentum. Since Erica is stationary, her momentum is 0. And since Danny is moving upward at 4.7 m/s his momentum is 43 kg * 4.7 m/s = 202.1 kg*m/s. Assuming that both Erica and Danny will be moving as a joined system, their combined mass is 38 kg + 43 kg = 81 kg. Since the momentum will be the same, their velocity will be 202.1 kg*m/s / 81 kg = 2.495061728 m/s. Since we only have 2 significant figures in the provided data, rounding the result to 2 significant figures gives a velocity of 2.5 m/s going upward.</span>

Is it possible to accelerate while moving constant speed

marusya05 [52]

Answer:

Explanation:

An object which experiences either a change in the magnitude or the direction of the velocity vector can be said to be accelerating. This explains why an object moving in a circle at constant speed can be said to accelerate - the direction of the velocity changes.

A motorist inflates the tires of her car to a pressure of 180 kPa on a day when the temperature is -8.0° C. When she arrives at

GuDViN [60]

Apply Gay-Lussac's law:

P/T = const.

P = pressure, T = temperature, the quotient of P/T must stay constant.

Initial P and T values:

P = 180kPa, T = -8.0°C = 265.15K

Final P and T values:

P = 245kPa, T = ?

Set the initial and final P/T values equal to each other and solve for the final T:

180/265.15 = 245/T

T = 361K

A 1.5-kg ball is throw at 10 m/s. What is the balls momentum?

alexdok [17]

Answer : The momentum of ball is, 15 kg.m/s

Explanation :

Momentum : It is defined as the motion of a moving body. Or it is defined as the product of mass of velocity of an object.

Formula of momentum is:

where,

p = momentum = ?

m = mass = 1.5 kg

v = velocity = 10 m/s

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

Therefore, the momentum of ball is 15 kg.m/s
