The acceleration of gravity is
9.8 m/s^2 down.
When an object falls out of a hand, its speed after 1.8s is
(9.8)x(1.8) = 17.6 m/s down.
It doesn't matter what it is, how much it weighs, or how high it was dropped from.
If it's more than 17.6 m/s, then this happened on a different, bigger planet.
If it's less than 17.6 m/s, then it must have hit something on the way down, like some air or something.
Answer:
69.74 N
Explanation:
We are given that
Weight of sled=49 N
Coefficient of kinetic friction
Weight of person=585 N
Total weight==mg=49+585=634 N
We know that
Force needed to pull the sled across the snow at constant speed,F=Kinetic friction
Where N= Normal=mg
Hence, the force is needed to pull the sled across the snow at constant speed=69.74 N
Answer:
Chemical energy to electrical energy
Explanation:
In nature, there are several types of energy.
In this example (a flashlight being turned on), we have a conversion of energy from chemical energy to electrical energy. In fact:
- Chemical energy is the energy stored in the chemical bonds of the molecules of the substances used inside the battery. When the chemical reaction inside the battery occurs, this energy is liberated, and it is used to "push" the electrons along the circuit connected to the battery
- Electric energy is the energy associated to the motion of the electrons along the circuit of the flashlight; it is the energy associated to an electric current.
Moreover, in the flashlight the electric energy is then converted into two more types of energy: light energy (since the bulb in the flashlight produces light) and heat energy (because the flashlight also produces heat, so thermal energy).
The EM spectrum has no limits. Any frequency you can imagine
is the frequency of some electromagnetic radiation somewhere.
