If the car falls down the side of the cliff, what is happening to the gravitational potential energy of the falling car (Assume the bottom of the cliff is zero)
Group of answer choices

the gravitational potential energy is decreasing

the gravitational potential energy has not changed

the gravitational potential energy is increasing

Answers

Answer 1

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is energy an object possesses because of its position in a gravitational field. ... The gravitational potential energy is equal to its weight times the height to which it is lifted. PE = kg x 9.8 m/s2 x m = joules. The 9.8 us the gravitational acceleration constant.

so the answer is "the gravitational potential energy is decreasing"

Which of these is untrue about ray diagrams?
A. The arrowheads show the direction of the light

B. Lines must always be straight

C. More arrowheads on lines mean a brighter light

Answers

Answer:

The untrue option is C: "More arrowheads on lines mean a brighter light"

Explanation:

Ray diagrams are used to show how the light behaves with things like mirrors or lenses. Where we only study how the direction of the light changes when it interacts with these objects.

The "light" is represented with arrows, where again, the only thing we care is the direction of the light, so the first statement is true, the arrowheads show the direction of the light, and only that.

The intensity of the light, in this context, has no effect on how light behaves, so there is not a necessity of representing the intensity of the light, thus, more arrowheads on lines do not mean a brighter light. It may only be used to represent changes in direction of the light.

Finally, we know that light travels in straight pats (the pats can be curved in some cases, like with large gravitational fields, but this is not the case of a ray diagram) so the lines that represent the light should always be straight, thus option B is also true.

The untrue option is C: "More arrowheads on lines mean a brighter light"

A runner is traveling with an initial velocity of 0.3 m/s in the positive direction accelerates at a constant rate of 0.4m/s^2 for a time of 2 seconds. What is the velocity at the end of 2 seconds?

Answers

Answer:

1.1 m/s

Explanation:

Applying,

v = u+at.............. Equation 1

Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, a = acceleration, t = time.

From the question,

Given: u = 0.3 ms, a = 0.4 m/s², t = 2 seconds

Substitute these values into equation 1

v = 0.3+0.4(2)

v = 0.3+0.8

v = 1.1 m/s

Hence the velocity at the end of 2 seconds is 1.1 m/s

An object with a mass of 7.60 kg is moving to the right and experiences an applied force of 50 N to the right. The friction force on this object is 30 N to the left. What is the acceleration of the object?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

We will use the equation F - f = ma, which is a fancy way of stating Newton's 2nd Law.

F = +50.0,

f = -30.0,

m = 7.60 kg. Therefore:

50.0 - 30.0 = 7.60a and

20.0 = 7.60a and

a = 20.0/7.60 so

a = 2.63 m/s/s to the right

An aluminium cube of side 5cm and R.D 2.7 is suspended by a thread in alcohol of relative density 0.8o. Find the tension in thread.​

Answers

Answer:

The tension in the thread is approximately 3.2103225 Newtons

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The side length of the aluminum cube, s = 5 cm

The R.D. of aluminum = 2.7

The relative density of alcohol into which the aluminum cube is placed = 0.8

The volume of the aluminum cube, V = s³ = (5 cm)³ = 125 cm³

The mass of the aluminum cube, V = The volume of the cube

The mass of the aluminum cube, m = V × R.D. × Density of water

m₁ = 0.000125 × 2.7 × 970 = 0.327375 kg

The mass of the alcohol displaced, m₂ = 0.000125 × 0.8 × 970 = 0.097

The tension in the string, T = The apparent weight of the aluminum cube, Wₐ

∴ The tension in the thread, T = Wₐ = (m₁ - m₂) × g

Where;

g = The acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.81 m/s²

∴ T ≈ (0.327375 - 0.000125) × 9.81 = 3.2103225

The tension in the thread, T ≈ 3.2103225 N.

Answers

Answer:

Push with force of 1N

Explanation:

I have explained in the paper.

Goodluck

You must push with 1 newton  on the pencil to make the balloon pop.

What is force?

The definition of force in physics is: The push or pull on a massed object changes its velocity.

An external force is an agent that has the power to alter the resting or moving condition of a body. It has a direction and a magnitude. The application of force is the location at which force is applied, and the direction in which the force is applied is known as the direction of the force.

A spring balance can be used to calculate the Force. Newton is the SI unit of force.

Applied pressure is = 100  N/cm².

Cross sectional area = 0.01 cm².

The required force = pressure × area

= 100 N/cm² × 0.01 cm²

= 1 Newton.

Hence, you must push with 1 newton  on the pencil to make the balloon pop.

The density of aluminum is 2.7 g/cm^3. Which of the following statement is true?

A) 1 g of aluminium has a volume of 1 cm^3

B) 2.7 g of aluminium has a volume of 1 cm^3

C) 1 g of aluminium has a volume of 2.7 cm^3

D) 2 g of aluminium has a volume of 7 cm^3​

Answers

Answer:

B) 2.7 g of aluminium has a volume of 1 cm^3

Explanation:

Density can be defined as mass all over the volume of an object.

Simply stated, density is mass per unit volume of an object.

Mathematically, density is given by the equation;

[tex]Density = \frac{mass}{volume}[/tex]

If the density of aluminum is 2.7 g/cm³, it simply means that 2.7 g of aluminium has a volume of 1 cm³

Check:

Given the following data;

Mass = 2.7 grams

Volume = 1 cm³

Substituting into the formula, we have;

[tex]Density = \frac{2.7}{1}[/tex]

Density = 2.7 g/cm³

Answer:

Option A is correct: "A concave mirror forming a larger, virtual image"

Explanation:

There are two types of mirror:

Concave (converging) mirrors: a concave mirror is a mirror that reflects the light inward

Convex (diverging) mirrors: a convex mirror is a mirror that reflects the light outward

The image formed by a mirror can also be of two types:

Real image: it is formed on the same side of the object, with respect to the mirror

Virtual image: it is formed on the opposite side of the object, with respect to the mirror

In the figure of this problem, we see that:

< The mirror reflects the light from the object inward --> so it is a concave mirror

< The image is formed on the other side of the mirror --> it is a virtual image

So the correct option is

A) A concave mirror forming a larger, virtual image

A swimmer is capable of swimming at 1.4m/s in still water. a. How far downstream will he land if he swims directly across a 180m wide river? b. How long will it take him to reach the other side.

Answers

Answer:

t = 180 / 1.4 = 129 sec   (time to swim horizontally across river)

S = 129 sec * V     where V is speed of current and S is the distance he will be carried downstream

The problem does not specify V the speed of the river

Answer:

Explanation:

From the given information:

a) the distance(D) showing how dar downstream he will land can be computed as follows:

Assuming the current of the river = 0.2 m/s

[tex]D = \dfrac{180 \ m \times 0.2 \ m/s}{1.4 \ m/s}[/tex]

D = 36 m ÷ 1.4

D = 25.71 m

The required time (t) to reach the other side is:

time (t) = 180 m/ 1.4 m/s

time (t) = 128.57 seconds

Answers

Answer:

Initial velocity (u) = 40 m/s

Distance travel in last 5 seconds = 100 m

Explanation:

Given:

Acceleration (a) = 8 m/s²

Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s

Find;

1] Initial velocity before 5 sec

2] Distance travel in last 5 seconds

Computation:

1] Initial velocity before 5 sec

v = u + at

0 = u + (-8)(5)

u - 40 = 0

Initial velocity (u) = 40 m/s

2] Distance travel in last 5 seconds

s = ut + (1/2)(a)(t²)

s = (40)(5) + (1/2)(-8)(5²)

s = 200 - 100

Distance travel in last 5 seconds = 100 m

A girl travels 50m in 12s and then another 30m in 5s .Calculate her average speed?​

Answers

Answer:

4.71m/s

Explanation:

Average speed = Total distance travelled ÷ Total time taken.

80/17=4.71

4.71m/s

Answer:

Average speed = Total distance travelled ÷ Total time taken.

In this question,

Total distance travelled = 50m + 30m

                                                = 80m.

Total time taken = 12s + 5s

                                     = 17s

So, Average speed would be 80 ÷ 17

= [tex]\frac{80}{17}[/tex]

 = 4.71 m/s. or 4.71 meter per second.
