A car of mass M traveling with velocity v strikes a car of mass M that is at rest. The two cars’ bodies mesh in the collision. The loss of the kinetic energy the moving car undergo in the collision is

a) a quarter of the initial kinetic energy.
b) half of the initial kinetic energy.
c) all the initial kinetic energy.
d) zero.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

the correct answer is B

Explanation:

Let's propose the solution of the problem, for this we form a system formed by the two cars, so that the forces during the collision are internal, the momentum is conserved

instantly starts. Before the crash

         p₀ = M v +0

final instant. After the crash

        m_f = (M + M) v_f

the moment is preserved

        p₀ = p_f

        M v = 2 M v_f

        v_f = v / 2

let's look for kinetic energy

before the crash

       K₀ = ½ M v²

after the crash

       K_f = ½ 2M (v_f)²

       K_f = ½ 2M (v/2)²

       K_f = (½ M v²) ½

       K_f = K₀ / 2

therefore the correct answer is B

If you wanted to know how much the temperature of a particular piece of material would rise when a known amount of heat was added to it, which of the following quantities would be most helpful to know?

a. coefficient of linear expansion
b. specific heat
c. initial temperature
d. thermal conductivity
e. density

Answers

Answer:

Option (b) is correct.

Explanation:

The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of substance of mass 1 kg by 1 degree C, is called specific heat of the substance.

The formula of the specific heat is

H = m c (T' - T)

where, m is the mass, c is the specific heat and T' - T is the change in temperature.

So, to know the rise in temperature, by adding the known amount of heat, the specific heat is required.

So, option (b) is correct.

A horizontal force is applied to a 4.0 kg box. The box starts from rest, moves a horizontal distance of 10.0 meters, and obtains a velocity of 7.0 m/s. The change in the kinetic energy is:_____.

Answers

Answer:

98 J

Explanation:

Applying,

Change in kinetic energy = Final kinetic energy- initial kinetic energy

ΔK.E = mv²/2-mu²/2..............Equation 1

Where ΔK.E = Change in kinetic energy, m = mass of the box, u = initial velocity of the box, v = final velocity of the box.

From the question,

Given: m = 4.0 kg, u = 0 m/s, v = 7 ,0 m/s

Substitute these values into equation 1

ΔK.E = (4(7²)/2)-(4(0²)/2)

ΔK.E = (2×49)-0

ΔK.E = 98 J

Hence the change in kinetic energy 98 J

Mark Brainliest please

Answer :

A study published in the journal Seismological Research Letters this week identified 730 sites where human activity caused earthquakes over the past 150 years. And while we've long known that people can influence seismic activity, researchers were surprised to find that human activity has induced earthquakes with magnitudes as high as 7.9—and that the number of earthquakes is clearly rising in some regions of the world.

The effects of human-induced earthquakes may be similar to those created by nature, but are often seen in regions with little or no previous seismic activity. Most natural earthquakes happen along fault lines, which are commonly (but not exclusively) found where tectonic plates converge. But earthquakes triggered by human activity can occur far from the edges of tectonic plates.


Exactly what causes each induced earthquake depends on the type of human activity.

According to the report's data, found on a publicly accessible database, mining accounted for the highest number of human-induced earthquakes worldwide (many earthquakes clustered around 271 sites). The removal of material from the earth can cause instability, leading to sudden collapses that trigger earthquakes.

Multiple earthquakes at 167 sites—and by far the deadliest ones—were triggered by what the report calls water reservoir impoundment, or dam building. (See the power of dams and dam removal.)

In 2008, an estimated 80,000 people died or went missing following a 7.9 earthquake in China's Sichuan province. Scientists believe it was triggered by the weight of 320 million tons of water that had been collected in the Zipingpu Reservoir—over a well-known fault line.

In the U.S., the conversation around human-induced earthquakes has largely centered around fracking for oil and natural gas, given the rapid spread of the technology in many states. According to the U.S. Geological Survey, fracking can induce seismic activity, both directly and from disposing of wastewater used in the process—the byproduct of water, sand, and chemicals used to hydraulically fracture hydrocarbons from rock. That high-pressure wastewater can crack rocks and lubricate faults.

A circular wire loop is placed near a long, straight, current-carrying wire in which the current is either increasing or decreasing. Draw the situations in which the induced current in the loop counterclockwise?

Answers

Answer:

The induced current is counter clockwise if the current is decreasing and towards right.

Explanation:

When the current is decreasing in the wire, the direction of magnetic field at the center of the loop is outwards to the plane of paper which is given by the Maxwell's right hand thumb rule. The magnetic field is decreasing in nature.

So according to the Lenz's law, the induced current is such that which opposes the cause of its production, so that the induced current is counter clockwise.

The load arm is usually shorter than the effort arm in second order levers. Moving a large weight hence requires less effort. A force multiplier lever or effort multiplier lever is the name for this kind of lever. A boat's oars, for instance, can increase the force.

What is second order levers?

Second-order levers are devices with the input force farthest from the fulcrum and the output force on the same side of the fulcrum. A wheelbarrow is an excellent illustration of a second-order lever.

A second-order lever will have an output force greater than an input force, similar to first-order levers. The output journey, however, will be shorter than the input length. Both the input and output forces in this situation will move in the same direction.

Which one is the dependent variable in distance, force, or work

Answers

Answer:

Distance

Explanation:

Work can be defined as the energy transferred to a physical object by exertion of a force on the object to cause a displacement of the object. Thus, work is typically done when a person or simple machine move an object over a distance through the application of a force.

Mathematically, work done is given by the formula;

[tex] W = F * d[/tex]

Where,

W is the work done

F represents the force acting on a body.

d represents the distance covered by the body.

A dependent variable is the event expected to change when an independent variable is manipulated.

Hence, distance is the dependent variable because its value changes with respect to the amount of force exerted on an object.

A rock is thrown from the edge of the top of a 51 m tall building at some unknown angle above the horizontal. The rock strikes the ground a horizontal distance of 74 m from the base of the building 8 s after being thrown. Assume that the ground is level and that the side of the building is vertical. Determine the speed with which the rock was thrown.

Answers

Answer:

The speed of projection is 34 m/s.

Explanation:

Height of building, h = 51 m

horizontal distance, d = 74 m

time, t = 8 s

Let the angle is A and the speed is u.

d = u cos A x t

74 = u cos A x 8

u cos A = 9.25 .... (1)

Use second equation of motion

[tex]h = u sin A t - 0.5 gt^2\\\\-51 = u sinA \times 8 - 0.5\times 9.8\times8\times 8\\\\u sin A = 32.8 .... (2)[/tex]

Squaring and adding both the equations

[tex]u^2 = 9.25^2 + 32.8^2 \\\\u = 34 m/s[/tex]

Kinematics equations tells us the position of an object under constant acceleration increases linearly with time.
A. True
B. False

Answers

Answer:

False.

Explanation:

Suppose that we have an object that moves with constant acceleration A.

Then the acceleration of the object is defined by the equation:

a(t) = A

The acceleration is the rate of change of the velocity, then the velocity equation is given by the integration of the acceleration equation, we will get:

v(t) = A*t + V₀

Where V₀ is the velocity of the object at the time t = 0s.

Now, if we integrate it again, we will get the position equation:

p(t) = (1/2)*A*t^2 + V₀*t + P₀

Where P₀ is the initial position equation.

Here, we can see that the position equation is a quadratic equation (not a linear equation), then the statement is false.

Which describes a characteristic of metallic bonds?

Answers

Answer:

arge number of electrons free to move between the charged ions in the lattice.

Explanation:

The metallic bond occurs when an atom with few electrons is united in its last level, therefore the best way to decrease the total energy of the system is to lose all its electrons to remain with the configuration of a noble gas. The electrons that it loses cannot be acquired by other atoms since they all have few electrons, thus leaving a large number of electrons free to move between the charged ions in the lattice.

Some important characteristics emerge from this description of the metallic bond:

* It has many free electrons therefore its electrical conductivity is high

* As the charged ions are fixed, the material can be malleable, bent without breaking since the free electrons create the bond that keeps the system stable.

* As the electrons are free when heating a part of the material, these electrons acquire energy and rapidly propagate it to the other side, giving a high thermal conductivity

* As the temperature increases, the electrons acquire more kinetic energy, which is why there are more collisions between them and consequently the resistivity of the material increases.

Falls often cause injuries, so one of the significant aspects of falls is the displacement and motion of a body. It is defined as how far a body moves vertically during the fall. Accordingly, there are three important factors that should be known to compute the kinetic energy (KE) of a falling body. These factors are:

Answers

Answer:

We need, mass, gravity and height.

Explanation:

When a body falls freely from a height, its initial velocity is zero, but due to the height it has some potential energy at the top and the kinetic energy is zero.

As it falls, the potential energy is gradually converted in to the kinetic energy so that the total energy of the falling body is conserved.

At the time as the body strikes the ground, the entire potential energy is converted into the kinetic energy.

Potential energy is given by

U = m g h

where, m is the mass, g is the gravity and h is the height,

So, to get the kinetic energy we require mass, gravity and height of the body.
