Answer: D. F represents the activation energy
Explanation:
The activation energy is the energy required to get the reactants to begin reacting with one another such that products are created. This energy ranges from the minimum to the maximum energy required.
F is therefore the activation energy because it shows the range between the minimum energy it took for the reaction to start and the maximum energy that was required to continue the reaction.

Three 15-Ω and two 25-Ω light bulbs and a 24 V battery are connected in a series circuit. What is the current that passes through each bulb?
1) 0.18 A
2) 0.25 A
3) 0.51 A
4) 0.74 A
5) The current will be 1.6 A in the 15-Ω bulbs and 0.96 A in the 25-Ω bulbs.
Answer:
I = 0.25 A
Explanation:
Given that,
Three 15 ohms and two 25 ohms light bulbs and a 24 V battery are connected in a series circuit.
In series combination, the equivalent resistance is given by :
[tex]R=R_1+R_2+R_3+....[/tex]
So,
[tex]R=15+15+15+25+25\\\\=95\ \Omega[/tex]
The current each resistor remains the same in series combination. It can be calculated using Ohm's law i.e.
V = IR
[tex]I=\dfrac{V}{R}\\\\I=\dfrac{24}{95}\\\\I=0.25\ A[/tex]
So, the current of 0.25 A passes through each bulb.
Choose the force diagram that best represents a ball thrown upward by Peter, at the
top of its path.

Since the air resistance is to be neglected, only the gravitational force acts on the ball ( and has acted all the way from the throw upward). Diagram A reflects this fact correctly indicating the gravity acting on the ball downward.
A 165-km-long high-voltage transmission line 2.00 cm in diameter carries a steady current of 1,015 A. If the conductor is copper with a free charge density of 8.50 1028 electrons per cubic meter, how many years does it take one electron to travel the full length of the cable?
Answer:
22.1 years
Explanation:
Since the current in the wire is I = nevA where n = electron density = 8.50 × 10²⁸ electrons/cm³ × 10⁶ cm³/m³= 8.50 × 10³⁴ electrons/m³, e = electron charge = 1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ C, v = drift velocity of electrons and A = cross-sectional area of wire = πd²/4 where d = diameter of wire = 2.00 cm = 2 × 10⁻² m
Making v subject of the formula, we have
v = I/neA
So, v = I/neπd²/4
v = 4I/neπd²
Since I = 1,015 A, substituting the values of the other variables into the equation, we have
v = 4I/neπd²
v = 4(1,015 A)/[8.50 × 10³⁴ electrons/m³ × 1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ C × π ×(2 × 10⁻² m)²]
v = 4(1,015 A)/[8.50 × 10³⁴ electrons/m³ × 1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ C × π × 4 × 10⁻⁴ m²]
v = (1,015 A)/[42.779 × 10¹¹ electronsC/m]
v = 23.73 × 10⁻¹¹ m/s
v = 2.373 × 10⁻¹⁰ m/s
Since distance d = speed, v × time, t
d = vt
So, the time it takes one electron to travel the full length of the cable is t = d/v
Since d = distance moved by free charge = length of transmission line = 165 km = 165 × 10³ m and v = drift velocity of charge = 2.373 × 10⁻¹⁰ m/s
t = 165 × 10³ m/2.373 × 10⁻¹⁰ m/s
t = 69.54 × 10⁷ s
t = 6.954 × 10⁸ s
Since we have 365 × 24 hr/day × 60 min/hr × 60 s/min = 31536000 s in a year = 3.1536 × 10⁷ s
So, 6.954 × 10⁸ s = 6.954 × 10⁸ s × 1yr/3.1536 × 10⁷ s = 2.21 × 10 yrs = 22.1 years
It will take one electron 22.1 years to travel the full length of the cable
How do you find the product of gamma decay?
Answer:
The mass and atomic numbers don't change
Explanation:
An excited atom relaxes to the ground state emitting a photon...called a gamma ray.
The answer is that the mass and atomic numbers don't change.
In gamma decay, the product refers to the nucleus resulting from the emission of a gamma ray. Gamma decay occurs when an excited atomic nucleus releases excess energy in the form of a high-energy photon called a gamma ray.
To find the product of gamma decay, you need to identify the nucleus before and after the decay process. The product nucleus is determined by the parent nucleus that undergoes gamma decay.
During gamma decay, the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus remains unchanged. Therefore, the identity of the element remains the same, but the energy state of the nucleus is altered.
The product nucleus is typically represented by the same chemical symbol as the parent nucleus, followed by a superscript indicating the mass number (total number of protons and neutrons) and a subscript indicating the atomic number (number of protons).
For example, if a parent nucleus with an atomic number of Z and a mass number of A undergoes gamma decay, the product nucleus will have the same atomic number Z and mass number A.
It's important to note that gamma decay does not involve the emission or absorption of any particles, only the release of electromagnetic radiation (gamma ray).
Thus, the product nucleus remains unchanged in terms of atomic number and mass number.

Explanation:
In this exercise you are asked to answer some short questions
2) Newton's second law is
F = m a
when acceleration triples force triples
3) Unfortunately, the diagrams are not shown, but the correct one is one where the axis of movement has a friction force in the opposite direction of movement, as well as indicating that the car slips, the friction coefficient of dynamic.
The correct answer is: a diagram with dynamic friction force in the opposite direction of movement of the car
4) let's use the scientific expressions
v = v₀ - a t
as the car stops v = 0
a = v₀ / t
let's reduce the magnitudes
v₀ = 40 mile / h ([tex]\frac{5280 ft}{1 mile}[/tex]) ([tex]\frac{1 h}{3600 s}[/tex]) = 58.667 ft / s
a = 58.667 / 24
a = 2.44 ft / s²
5) let's use Newton's second law
fr = m a
We must be careful not to mix the units, we will reduce the acceleration to the system Yes
a = 2.44 ft / s² (1 m / 3.28 ft) = 0.745 m / s²
fr = 1200 0.745

If an object of a constant mass experiences a constant net force, it will have a constant acceleration.
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. The Newton is the SI unit of force.
According to Newton's second law of motion:
Applied force = mass × acceleration.
Hence, if an object of a constant mass experiences a constant net force, it will have a constant acceleration.

Two projectiles A and B are fired simultaneously from a level, horizontal surface. The projectiles are initially 62.2 m apart. Projectile A is
fired with a speed of 19.5 m/s at a launch angle 30° of while projectile B is fired with a speed of 19.5 m/s at a launch angle of 60°. How long
it takes one projectile to be directly above the other?
Let the point where A is launched act as the origin, so that the horizontal positions at time t of the respective projectiles are
• A : x = (19.5 m/s) cos(30°) t
• B : x = 62.2 m + (19.5 m/s) cos(60°) t
These positions are the same at the moment one projectile is directly above the other, which happens for time t such that
(19.5 m/s) cos(30°) t = 62.2 m + (19.5 m/s) cos(60°) t
Solve for t :
(19.5 m/s) (cos(30°) - cos(60°)) t = 62.2 m
t = (62.2 m) / ((19.5 m/s) (cos(30°) - cos(60°))
t ≈ 8.71 s

Displacement of a body moving in circular motion is
Explanation:
Displacement of a body moving in circular motion is called uniform circular motion.
hope it is helpful to you
Answer:
A constantly moving object with consistent circular movement. However, for its change in direction, it is accelerating
Explanation:
Uniform circular motion in a circle at constant rate can be described as the motion of the object. When an object moves in a circle, it changes its direction constantly. The object moves tangently to the circle at all times. As the velocity vector direction is the same as the object motion direction, the velocity vector is tangent to the circle. This is shown in the animation on the right by a vector arrow.
An item is accelerating that moves in a circle. Objects that accelerate are subjects that change their speed – either the velocity (i.e. the vecteur magnitude) or the direction. An object with consistent circular movement moves at a constant speed. However, because of its change in direction, it is accelerating. The acceleration direction is inside. The animation on the right shows this through a vector arrow
For an object with only a uniform circular movement, the final motion is the net force. The The net force acting on this object is directed to the middle of the circle. The net force is an inner or centripetal force. Without such a deepest force, an object would continue in a straight direction, never deviating. Regrettably, with the inward net force, perpendicular to the vector, the object changes the direction and is accelerated internally.
190 students sit in an auditorium listening to a physics lecture. Because they are thinking hard, each is using 125 W of metabolic power, slightly more than they would use at rest. An air conditioner with a COP of 5.0 is being used to keep the room at a constant temperature. What minimum electric power must be used to operate the air conditioner?

ΔV = v₂ – v₁
ΔV = –6 – 9
ΔV = –15 m/s
For time:
Initial time (t₁) = 0 s
Final time (t₂) = 3 s
Change in time (Δt) =?
Δt = t₂ – t₁
Δt = 3 – 0
Δt = 3 s
Finally, we shall determine the acceleration of the object. This can be obtained as follow:
Change in velocity (Δv) = –15 m/s
Change in time (Δt) = 3 s
Acceleration (a) =?
a = Δv / Δt
a = –15 / 3
a = –5 m/s²
Thus, the acceleration of the object is
–5 m/s².

Given
Ball is projected horizontally from a building of height [tex]h=19.6\ m[/tex]
time taken to reach ground is given by
[tex]\text{Cosidering vertical motion}\\\Rightarrow h=ut+0.5at^2\\\Rightarrow 19.6=0+0.5\times 9.8t^2\\\Rightarrow t^2=4\\\Rightarrow t=2\ s[/tex]
(b) Line joining the point of projection and the point where it hits the ground makes an angle of [tex]45^{\circ}[/tex]
From the figure, it can be written
[tex]\Rightarrow \tan 45^{\circ}=\dfrac{h}{x}\\\\\Rightarrow x=h\cdot 1\\\Rightarrow x=19.6[/tex]

(a) when the chains are horizontal (in J)
(b) when the chains make an angle of 33.0° with respect to the vertical (in J)
(c) when the child is at his lowest position (in J)
Answer:
a) U = 506 J, b) U = 37.11 J, c) U = 0
Explanation:
The gravitational power energy is given by the expression
U = m g (y -y₀)
In general, a reference system is set that allows the expression to be simplified, in this case let's assume the reference system at the child's lowest point, therefore y₀ = 0
Let's use trigonometry to find the child's height
h = y = L - L cos θ
we substitute
U = m g L (1 - cos θ)
a) when the chain is horizontal θ = 90 and cos 90 = 0
U = mg L
weight and mass are related
W = mg
m = W / g
U = 230 2.20
U = 506 J
b) θ = 33.0º
cos 33 = 0.83867
U = 230 (1 - 0.83867)
U = 37.11 J
c) in this case θ = 0 cos 0 = 1
U = 0

Answer:
Both stones will land at the same time because both stones will fall with the same acceleration through the same height.
Explanation:
We are given that
Mass of stone ,m1=5 Kg
Mass of stone, m2=1 kg
We have to find which stone more faster will land and why.
[tex]h=u+\frac{1}{2}gt^2[/tex]
Initial velocity of both stones=0
[tex]h=\frac{1}{2}gt^2[/tex]
[tex]t^2=\frac{h}{g}[/tex]
[tex]t=\sqrt{\frac{h}{g}}[/tex]
[tex]t_1=t_2=\sqrt{\frac{h}{g}}[/tex]

A body of mass 2kg is released from from a point 100m above the ground level. calculate kinetic energy 80m from the point of released.
Answer:
1568J
Explanation:
Since the problem states 80 m from the point of drop, the height relative to the ground will be 100-80=20m.
Use conservation of Energy
ΔUg+ΔKE=0
ΔUg= mgΔh=2*9.8*(20-100)=-1568J
ΔKE-1568J=0
ΔKE=1568J
since KEi= 0 since the object is at rest 100m up, the kinetic energy 20meters above the ground is 1568J
A frictionless piston-cylinder device contains 10 kg of superheated vapor at 550 kPa and 340oC. Steam is then cooled at constant pressure until 60 percent of it, by mass, condenses. Determine (a) the work (W) done during the process. (b) What-if Scenario: What would the work done be if steam were cooled at constant pressure until 80 percent of it, by mass, condenses
Answer:
a) the work (W) done during the process is -2043.25 kJ
b) the work (W) done during the process is -2418.96 kJ
Explanation:
Given the data in the question;
mass of water vapor m = 10 kg
initial pressure P₁ = 550 kPa
Initial temperature T₁ = 340 °C
steam cooled at constant pressure until 60 percent of it, by mass, condenses; x = 100% - 60% = 40% = 0.4
from superheated steam table
specific volume v₁ = 0.5092 m³/kg
so the properties of steam at p₂ = 550 kPa, and dryness fraction
x = 0.4
specific volume v₂ = v[tex]_f[/tex] + xv[tex]_{fg[/tex]
v₂ = 0.001097 + 0.4( 0.34261 - 0.001097 )
v₂ = 0.1377 m³/kg
Now, work done during the process;
W = mP₁( v₂ - v₁ )
W = 10 × 550( 0.1377 - 0.5092 )
W = 5500 × -0.3715
W = -2043.25 kJ
Therefore, the work (W) done during the process is -2043.25 kJ
( The negative, indicates work is done on the system )
b)
What would the work done be if steam were cooled at constant pressure until 80 percent of it, by mass, condenses
x₂ = 100% - 80% = 20% = 0.2
specific volume v₂ = v[tex]_f[/tex] + x₂v[tex]_{fg[/tex]
v₂ = 0.001097 + 0.2( 0.34261 - 0.001097 )
v₂ = 0.06939 m³/kg
Now, work done during the process will be;
W = mP₁( v₂ - v₁ )
W = 10 × 550( 0.06939 - 0.5092 )
W = 5500 × -0.43981
W = -2418.96 kJ
Therefore, the work (W) done during the process is -2418.96 kJ
