Answer:
Potential energy only occurs when an object is in motion.
Explanation:
Energy can be defined as the ability (capacity) to do work. The two (2) main types of energy are;
a. Kinetic energy (K.E): it is an energy possessed by an object or body due to its motion.
Mathematically, kinetic energy is given by the formula;
[tex] K.E = \frac{1}{2}MV^{2}[/tex]
Where;
K.E represents kinetic energy measured in Joules.
M represents mass measured in kilograms.
V represents velocity measured in metres per seconds square.
b. Potential energy (P.E): it is an energy possessed by an object or body due to its position above the earth.
Mathematically, potential energy is given by the formula;
[tex] P.E = mgh[/tex]
Where,
P.E represents potential energy measured in Joules.
m represents the mass of an object.
g represents acceleration due to gravity measured in meters per seconds square.
h represents the height measured in meters.
Additionally, the mechanical energy of a physical object or body is the sum of the potential energy and kinetic energy possessed by the object or body.
Mathematically, it is given by the formula;
Mechanical energy = P.E + K.E

A power plant burns coal to generate electricity. Suppose that 1000 J of heat (Q) from the coal fire enters a boiler, which is kept at a constant temperature of 900 C. That 1000 J is used to boil water in a boiler. The steam from the boiler is used to drive a turbine that creates electricity (work). The excess heat is put into a cooling tower at 5 C.
Carnot efficiency If everything is perfectly efficient,
• What is the maximum efficiency that the plant could operate at?
• How much work could be done starting from that 1000 J?
Answer:
The work done will be "763 J". A further explanation is given below.
Explanation:
The given values are:
[tex]Q_1=1000 \ J[/tex]
Temperature,
[tex]T_1=900^{\circ} C[/tex]
i.e,
[tex]=1173[/tex]
[tex]T_2=5^{\circ}C[/tex]
i.e.,
[tex]=278[/tex]
As we know,
⇒ [tex]\eta =1-\frac{T_2}{T_1}[/tex]
On substituting the values, we get
⇒ [tex]=1-\frac{278}{1173}[/tex]
⇒ [tex]=\frac{1173-278}{1173}[/tex]
⇒ [tex]=\frac{895}{1173}[/tex]
⇒ [tex]=0.763[/tex]
then,
⇒ [tex]W=\eta Q_1[/tex]
⇒ [tex]=0.763\times 1000[/tex]
⇒ [tex]=763 \ J[/tex]

On the Moon’s surface, lunar astronauts placed a corner reflector, off which a laser beam is periodically reflected. The distance to the Moon is calculated from the round-trip time. What percent correction is needed to account for the delay in time due to the slowing of light in Earth’s atmosphere? Assume the distance to the Moon is precisely 3.84×108 m , and Earth’s atmosphere (which varies in density with altitude) is equivalent to a layer 30.0 km thick with a constant index of refraction n = 1.000293.
Answer:
[tex]T_d=2.8*10^-^6\%[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
Distance b/w Earth and the moon [tex]d_e=3.84×10^8 m[/tex]
Thickness of Earth's atmosphere[tex]d_t=30km[/tex]
Constant index of refraction [tex]n = 1.000293.[/tex]
Generally the equation for percentage of time delay [tex]T_d[/tex] is mathematically given as
[tex]T_d=\frac{d(n-1)}{rm}*100\%[/tex]
[tex]T_d=\frac{(35*10^3)(1.000293-1)()100)}{3.674*10^8} *\%[/tex]
[tex]T_d=2.8*10^-^6 \%[/tex]
Therefore the general percentage correction needed because of tym deley is given as
[tex]T_d=2.8*10^-^6\%[/tex]

Answer:
a. E = 900000 J = 900 KJ
b. ΔT = 8.18 °C
c. Cost = $ 7.2
Explanation:
a.
The energy can be given by:
[tex]E = Pt[/tex]
where,
E = Energy = ?
P = Power = 500 W
t = time = (0.5 h)(3600 s/1 h) = 1800 s

During the course of a demonstration the professor is called away. When he returns he finds a beaker of water that was at room temperature is now at a slightly higher temperature. There is a stirring rod on the desk and a cigarette lighter. The professor can assume that the temperature increase is due to either heat added or mechanical work done. mechanical work done on the system. heat added to the system.
Answer:
Either heat added or mechanical work done.
Explanation:
Since he found stirring rod on the desk and a cigarette lighter. This means that the beaker was probably either heated with the aid of fire from the lighter.
Also, the stirring rod could have been used to stir the water which will increase the kinetic energy which also means an increase in temperature.
Thus, it's either heat was added or mechanical work was done as a result of stirring.

Complete question is;
Shoveling snow can be extremely taxing since the arms have such a low efficiency in this activity. Suppose a person shoveling a sidewalk metabolizes food at the rate of 800 W. (The efficiency of a person shoveling is 3%.)
(a) What is her useful power output? (b) How long will it take her to lift 3000 kg of snow 1.20 m? (This could be the amount of heavy snow on 20 m of footpath.) (c) How much waste heat transfer in kilojoules will she generate in the process?
Answer:
A) P_out = 24 W
B) t = 1470 s
C) Q = 1140.72 KJ
Explanation:
We are given;
Input Power; P_in = 800 W
Efficiency; η = 3% = 0.03
A) Formula for efficiency is;
η = P_out/P_in
Making P_out the subject, we have;
P_out = η•P_in
P_out = 0.03 × 800
P_out = 24 W
B) We know that;
Power = work done/time taken
Thus;
P_out = mgh/t
We are given;
m = 3000 kg
h = 1.20 m
Thus, time is;
t = (3000 × 9.8 × 1.2)/24
t = 1470 s
C) amount of heat wasted is calculated from;
Q = (P_in - P_out)t
Q = (800 - 24) × 1470
Q = 1,140,720 J
Q = 1140.72 KJ
a car initially at rest move with the constant accerates along straght line read after it's spread increase and finally related uniformly. the time interval for the three parts of the jounry are in the ratio 1:3:1 find average velocity ?
Answer:
32km per hour
Explanation:
Explanation:
In first case v = a t
==> a t = 40 km p h
Now distance covered S1 + S2 + S3
S1 = 1/2 a t^2 and S3 = 1/2 a t^2
But S2 = 3t * 40 = 120 t km
Hence total distance = at^2 + 120 t
Time taken (total) = t + 3t + t = 5 t
Hence average speed = at^2 + 120 t / 5 t
Cancelling t we have at + 120 / 5 = 40 + 120 / 5 = 160/5 = 32 km per hour
When the electrons reach the collector, they flow towards the positivly charged grid. The resulting current is measured. Note that as the electrons accelerate from the cathode toward the grid, they collide with the mercury atoms. Assume that these collisions are completely elastic. How does the collected current vary if the ΔVgrid is slowly increased? View Available Hint(s) When the electrons reach the collector, they flow towards the positivly charged grid. The resulting current is measured. Note that as the electrons accelerate from the cathode toward the grid, they collide with the mercury atoms. Assume that these collisions are completely elastic. How does the collected current vary if the is slowly increased? The current increases. The current remains constant. The current decreases.
Answer:
the current INCREASES.
Explanation:
In this experiment, the electrons are generated by a filament with very low speed, when they are subjected to a difference and potential ΔV they acquire the necessary speed to reach the regulation and the current can be measured.
Some electrons collide elastically with the atoms of the mercury gas that is much heavier and are scattered in any direction, so they do not reach the grid, by increasing the voltage this scattered electrons can acquire the necessary speed in the direction of grid to reach it and therefore are also measured, increasing the current.
Therefore, as the power difference increases, the current INCREASES.
After landing on an unfamiliar planet, a space explorer constructs a simple pendulum of length 54.0 cm. The explorer finds that the pendulum completes 98.0 full swing cycles in a time of 135s.
Required:
What is the value of g on this planet?
Answer:
g = 11.2 m/s²
Explanation:
First, we will calculate the time period of the pendulum:
[tex]T = \frac{t}{n}[/tex]
where,
T = Time period = ?
t = time taken = 135 s
n = no. of swings in given time = 98
Therefore,
[tex]T = \frac{135\ s}{98}[/tex]
T = 1.38 s
Now, we utilize the second formula for the time period of the simple pendulum, given as follows:
[tex]T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}[/tex]
where,
l = length of pendulum = 54 cm = 0.54 m
g = acceleration due to gravity on the planet = ?
Therefore,
[tex](1.38\ s)^2 = 4\pi^2(\frac{0.54\ m}{g} )\\\\g = \frac{4\pi^2(0.54\ m)}{(1.38\ s)^2}[/tex]
g = 11.2 m/s²
System A consists of a mass m attached to a spring with a force constant k; system B has a mass 2m attached to a spring with a force constant k; system C has a mass 3m attached to a spring with a force constant 6k; and system D has a mass m attached to a spring with a force constant 4k.
Rank these systems in order of increasing period of oscillation. (Use only the symbols < and =, for example A < B = C.)
Solution :
We know that the time period of oscillation of a spring mass system is given by :
[tex]$T = 2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}$[/tex] , where m is mass and k is the spring constant
∴ [tex]$T_A = 2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}$[/tex] .........(i)
[tex]$T_B = 2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{2m}{k}}$[/tex] ..........(ii)
[tex]$T_C = 2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{3m}{6k}} = 2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{2k}}$[/tex] ..........(iii)
[tex]$T_D = 2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{4k}}$[/tex] ...............(iv)
Comparing the equations (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv)
We get
[tex]$T_B > T_A > T_C > T_D$[/tex]
So in increasing order of time period, we get
[tex]$T_D < T_C < T_A < T_B$[/tex]

If anyone knows what’s going on here please help
Answer:
B. Attract each other with a force of 10 newtons.
Explanation:
Statement is incorrectly written. The correct form is: A [tex]+10\,\mu C[/tex] charge and a [tex]-10\,\mu C[/tex] at a distance of 0.3 meters.
The two particles have charges opposite to each other, so they attract each other due to electrostatic force, described by Coulomb's Law, whose formula is described below:
[tex]F = \frac{\kappa \cdot |q_{A}|\cdot |q_{B}|}{r^{2}}[/tex] (1)
Where:
[tex]F[/tex] - Electrostatic force, in newtons.
[tex]\kappa[/tex] - Electrostatic constant, in newton-square meters per square coulomb.
[tex]|q_{A}|,|q_{B}|[/tex] - Magnitudes of electric charges, in coulombs.
[tex]r[/tex] - Distance between charges, in meters.
If we know that [tex]\kappa = 8.988\times 10^{9}\,\frac{N\cdot m^{2}}{C^{2}}[/tex], [tex]|q_{A}| = |q_{B}| = 10\times 10^{-6}\,C[/tex] and [tex]r = 0.3\,m[/tex], then the magnitude of the electrostatic force is:
[tex]F = \frac{\kappa \cdot |q_{A}|\cdot |q_{B}|}{r^{2}}[/tex]
[tex]F = 9.987\,N[/tex]
In consequence, correct answer is B.
