As a ball is released from 10ft above the ground, it falls freely (without friction)
toward the ground, at what point does the ball have the maximum gravitational
potential energy?
Can't be determined
At the top, at the release point.
Half
way
down the ground
At the floor

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

The formula to find Potential Energy is PE = mgh, where m is the mass of the object, g is gravity, and h is the height from which the object can potentially fall. Because this is linear, then PE will increase as either the mass or the height increase (gravity is constant at 9.8 m/s/s). If the mass of the ball being dropped doesn't change, then the only thing that determines this ball's max PE is the height from which it is dropped; max PE ALWAYS occurs at the highest point from which an object can potentially fall. So your answer is "At the top".

passage: Uranium is a nuclear fuel, it is mined from under the ground.

1- what is nuclear energy

2- is uranium renewable, and why?

Answers

Answer:

1) The energy released during nuclear fission or fusion, especially when used to generate electricity is called nuclear energy.

2) It is not renewable because it is an element that has no way whatsoever to regenerate or replicate itself, nor gets created by any natural terrestrial means, neither makes itself available by arriving from outer space (like sunlight). There is a limited amount of it available on the Earth, and every bit you use is a bit you’ll never have available again (as Uranium atoms get destroyed by the fission process).

A 46.0 g golf ball is travelling with a velocity of 5.10 m/s. What is the kinetic energy of the golf ball

Answers

Answer:

[tex]0.598\:\mathrm{J}}[/tex]

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of a golf ball is given by [tex]KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2[/tex].

Since the golf ball is given in grams, we must convert to kilograms, as the SI unit of mass is kilograms.

[tex]46.0\:\mathrm{g}=0.046\:\mathrm{kg}[/tex]

Substituting given values, we have:

[tex]KE=\frac{1}{2}\cdot 0.046\cdot 5.10^2=\boxed{0.598\:\mathrm{J}}[/tex]

A beam of light shines on a plane mirror with an angle of incidence of 40°. The reflected light then hits another parallel plane mirror. What is the angle of reflection from the second mirror? A. 40° B. 50° C. 80° D. 90° E. 140°

Answers

Answer:

40degrees

Explanation:

Since the mirrors are parallel, the angle of incidence on the first mirror will be the same as the angle of incidence on the second mirror.

Angle of incidence on the second mirror = 40degrees

According to the second law of reflection, the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. Hence;

angle of incidence = angle of reflection = 40degrees

This shows that the angle of reflection from the second mirror is 40degrees

Is there any difference between antimatter, dark matter, dark energy, and degenerate matter?

pakisagutan po need ko na yan ngayon

*answer this please*​

Answers

Explanation:

antimatter - counterpart of ordinary matter; identical in every way except for charge. Examples are positrons (counter to electrons) and antiprotons (counter to protons). Direct contact between matter and antimatter results in total annihilation accompanied by huge radiation output.

dark matter - hypothesized as the non-visible or not directly observable kind of matter that could explain some of the unusual behavior of stars and galaxies.

dark energy - hypothesized to be some kind of a repulsive force like anti-gravity that could explain the apparent accelerated rate of expansion of the universe.

degenerate matter - a very dense form of matter made up of fermions (like protons and neutrons) only. Some stars are believed to be made of degenerate matter.

Answer:

Yes. Although the names sound vague and almost fictional, the types of matter called antimatter, dark matter, dark energy, and degenerate matter are all different, specific entities that really exist in our universe. ... Antimatter is just regular matter with a few properties flipped, such as the electric charge.

A car travels from A to B and from B back to A.If the distance between A and B is 12 km and it took 20 minutes to travel full , then the average speed and average velocity of the car is

Answers

Answer:

Average speed = 0, Average velocity = 0.02 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

A car travels from A to B and from B back to A.

The distance between A and B is 12 km

It took 20 minutes to travel full.

We need to find the average speed and the average velocity of the car.

As the car reaches the point from where it was started, the displacement of the car is equal to 0. As a result, the average velocity is equal to 0.

For average speed,

[tex]s=\dfrac{12+12}{60\times 20}\\\\s=0.02\ m/s[/tex]

Hence, this is the required solution.

Which change would decrease the total current, I, flowing through this circuit?
A. Increasing the voltage of the battery
B. Decreasing the length of the wires
C. Rewiring the two resistors in a series
D. Adding a third resistor in parallel

Answers

Answer:

A. Increasing the voltage of the battery

Explanation:

The relationship between voltage, V, current, I and resistance, R, is given as follows;

V = I × R

∴ I = V/R

From the above relationship, the current flowing in the circuit is directly proportional to the voltage of the battery, and inversely proportional to the resistance, 'R', of the circuit

Therefore, increasing the voltage, 'V', of the battery, increases the total current, 'I', flowing in the circuit.

Warm air is less dense than cold air. The same is true of water. You decide to take a bath and turn on both the hot and cold faucets. When the tub is one-third full, you dip your hand in and discover the water is too cold. You turn the cold water faucet off and keep the hot water turned on. You leave the hot water running for ten minutes. When you return and dip your hand in, you discover that the water in the tub is different temperatures in different places. It is too hot close to the faucet and in a top layer across the entire tub. When you sit down, however, the water in the bottom of the tub is cold. Explain how this happens and why: • how the hot water ended up in a layer on the top and near the faucet. • why this is or is not a transfer of heat. • how the temperature of the water in the tub will change over time. • why you will eventually want to get out of the tub, considering the air and your porcelain enameled steel tub.

Answers

Answer:

Given that the warm water is less dense than the cold water, we have;

The cold water which is more dense than the warm water will remain settled in the lower part of the tub while particles of the less dense warm water will move above the cold water not being able to penetrate lower due of difference in their gravitational potential energiesThis is a case of (lack of) heat transfer due to inability of heat to penetrate into the lower layers and transfer the heat by conduction, from particle to particle, and therefore, one layer, the top remains warm while the other layer, the lower layer, remains coldWith time (over an hour) more and more warm water units will be able to penetrate deeper and make the lower layer warmer while the warm water at the top loses heat by evaporation to the atmosphere, until the entire water reaches equilibriumHeat will continue to be lost by evaporation to the air and by conduction through the porcelain to the steel tub until the water in the tub becomes cold

Answer:

   i = 1.09 10⁴ A

Explanation:

For this exercise we will look for the resistance of the wire

          R = ρ L / a

the area of ​​the wire is

          a =ππ r² = π πd² / 4

we substitute

         R = ρ L 4 / π d²

          R = 1.72 10⁻⁸   20  4/π 8 10⁻⁴

         

         R = 5.47 10⁻⁴ Ω

to calculate the current we use ohm's law

           V = R i

            i = V / R

            i = 6 / 5.47 10⁻⁴

            i = 1.09 10⁴ A

Answer:

During the section CD , the speed is fastest.

Explanation:

The rate of change of distance is called speed.

Speed = distance / time

Its SI unit ism/s. It is a scalar quantity.

The slope of the distance time graph is given by the speed of the object.

Here, the speed of AB is 30/3= 10 m/s .

The speed of BC is = 0 m/s

The speed of CD is (50 - 30)/(6 - 5) = 20 m/s

So, the speed is maximum during the section CD.

Which of the following statements explains how total time spent in the air is affected as a projectile's angle of launch is increased from 25 degrees to 50 degrees?​

Answers

Answer:

Therefore letter C is the correct answer.

Explanation:

In a projectile motion the total time in the air can be calculated using the following equation:

We analyze the y-component motion.

[tex]v_{fy}=v_{iy}-gt[/tex]

When the final velocity (v(f)) is equal to zero we calculate the upward time and multiplying it by 2 we find the total time in the air. So we will have:

[tex]t_{tot}=2\frac{v_{iy}}{g}[/tex]

[tex]t_{tot}=2\frac{v_{i}sin(\theta)}{g}[/tex]

We can see that the total time is directly proportional to the angle, then when θ increase t increase.

Therefore letter C is the correct answer.

During a Buckeye football game, the quarterback throws a ‘long bomb' to a wide receiver. During it's flight, the ball reached a maximum height of 15 m [U] before it started falling back down, and during this time flew 30m [E], where it was caught. The receiver then ran it another 15 m [E] for a touchdown. A) Determine the distance and displacement experienced in the up-down dimension by the ball b) Determine the distance and displacement experienced by the ball in the east-west dimension.

Answers

Answer:

A) The distance traveled by the ball in the Up-down dimension is 30 m

The displacement of the ball in the up-down direction is 0 m

B) The distance the ball travels in the east west direction is 45 m [East]

The displacement of the ball is the east-west direction is 45 m [East]

Explanation:

The long measures of the ball motion are;

The maximum height reached = 15 m Up

The horizontal distance traveled by the ball during flight = 30 m East

The distance the receiver ran  with the ball after the ball was caught = 15 m East

A) The distance traveled by the ball in the Up-down dimension = 15 m up + 15 m backdown = 30 m in the up-down direction

The displacement of the ball in the up-down direction, d = 15 m + (-15 m) = 0 m

B) The distance the ball travels in the east west direction = 30 m [E] + 15 m [E] = 45 [E]

The displacement of the ball is the east-west direction, d = 30 m + 15 m = 45 m [E].
