A sled drops 50 meters in height on a hill. The mass of the rider and sled is 70 kg and the sled is going 10 m/s at the bottom of the hill. What is the efficiency of energy conversion from potential to kinetic?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Efficiency = 10.2 %

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 70 kg

Height = 50 m

Velocity = 10 m/s

We know that acceleration due to gravity is equal to 9.8 m/s².

To find the efficiency of energy conversion from potential to kinetic;

First of all, we would determine the potential energy;

P.E = mgh

P.E = 70 * 9.8 * 50

P.E = 34300 J

For the kinetic energy;

K.E = ½mv²

K.E = ½ * 70 * 10²

K.E = 35 * 100

K.E = 3500

Therefore, Input energy, I = 34300 J

Output energy, O = 3500 J

Next, we find the efficiency;

Efficiency = O/I * 100

Substituting into the formula, we have;

Efficiency = 3500/34300 * 100

Efficiency = 0.1020 * 100

Efficiency = 10.2 %

What makes the results of a scientific experiment accurate? (5 points)

Answers

Answer:

A measurement is reliable if you repeat it and get the same or a similar answer over and over again, and an experiment is reliable if it gives the same result when you repeat the entire experiment.

Explanation:

Answer: when you repeat it and get the same results

Explanation:

When a scientist repeats an experiment with a different group of people or a different batch of the same chemicals and gets very similar results then those results are said to be reliable. Reliability is measured by a percentage – if you get exactly the same results every time then they are 100% reliable.

A wave with a frequency of 1.1 Hz travels through deep water at a speed of 5.7 m/s. When the wave enters shallow water, its speed slows to 3.2 m/s. What is the wavelength of the wave in the shallow water?

Answers

Answer:

The wavelength of the wave in shallow water is 2.91 m.

Explanation:

Given;

frequency of the wave, f = 1.1 Hz

speed of the wave in deep water, v₁ = 5.7 m/s

speed of the wave in shallow water, v₂ = 3.2 m/s

The wavelength of the wave in the deep water is calculated as;

λ₁ = v₁/f

λ₁ = 5.7 / 1.1

λ₁ = 5.18 m

The wavelength of the wave in the shallow water is calculated as;

λ₂ = v₂/f

λ₂ = 3.2 / 1.1

λ₂ = 2.91 m

Therefore, the wavelength of the wave in shallow water is 2.91 m.

A) 35 amps

B) 10 amps

C) 5.2 amps

D) 3.4 amps

Answers

Answer:

3.43 A

Explanation:

Applying,

V = IR'.............. Equation 1

Where V = Voltage, I = current, R' = Total resistance

Make I the subject of the equation

I = V/R'........... Equation 2

From the question

Given: V = 120 volt, R' = (12+23) = 35 0hm

Substitute these values into equation 2

I = 120/35

I = 3.43 A

Three dogs scout sparky and dusty are playing with a teddy bear. Scout and sparky are pullung the teddy bear to the left

Answers

Answer:

To the left side.

Explanation:

The teddy bear will move towards the left side because more force is applied by scout and sparky than dusty. The reason for this movement of teddy bear  to the left is due to more force is applied by the two dogs present at the left side of the teddy bear while on the other hand, one dog is present at the right side of teddy bear which applied less force so that's why we can say that the teddy bear moves to the left side rather than to the right side.

A skydiver jumps from a stationary helicopter and reaches a steady vertical speed. She then opens her parachute. Which statement about the falling skydiver is correct?

A As her parachute opens, her acceleration is upwards.
B As she falls at a steady speed with her parachute open, her weight is zero.
C When she accelerates, the resultant force on her is zero.
alda
D When she falls at a steady speed, air resistance is zero.

Answers

Answer:

A) As her parachute opens, her acceleration is upwards.

Explanation:

The acceleration is the rate of change of the velocity.

Thus, if you have positive velocity and positive acceleration, your velocity increases

If you have positive velocity and negative acceleration, then your velocity decreases.

(The opposite happens when you have negative velocity).

Now, when the skydiver is falling, her velocity is downwards.

When she opens her parachute, her velocity downwards decreases.

This means that when she opens her parachute, she will have an acceleration in the opposite direction to her velocity, then at this point her acceleration is upwards.

We can conclude that the correct option is:

A) As her parachute opens, her acceleration is upwards.

A parallel plate capacitor of capacitance Co has plates of area A with separation d between them. When it is connected to a battery of voltage Vo, it has charge of magnitude Qo on its plates. It is then disconnected from the battery and the plates are pulled apart to a separation 2d without discharging them. After the plates are 2d apart, the new capacitance and the potential difference between the plates are: (Show all steps) [2 marks] a. ½ Co, ½ Vo b. ½ Co, 2Vo c. Co, Vo d. Co, 2Vo e. 2Co, 2Vo

Answers

Answer:

b. 1/2·C₀, 2·V₀

Explanation:

The capacitance on the parallel plate capacitor = C₀

The area of the plates  = A

The voltage on the battery = V₀

The magnitude of the charge on the plate = Q₀

The new distance between the plates = 2·d

From an online physics source, we have;

[tex]C_0 = \epsilon_0 \times \dfrac{A}{d}[/tex]

Where;

ε₀ = Constant

A = The area of the plates

With the new distance, 2·d, we get;

[tex]C_{new} = \epsilon_0 \times \dfrac{A}{2\cdot d} = \dfrac{1}{2} \times \epsilon_0 \times \dfrac{A}{d} = \dfrac{1}{2} \times C_0[/tex]

Therefore;

[tex]The \ new \ capacitance \ C_{new} = \dfrac{1}{2} \times C_0[/tex]

The potential difference, 'V', is given as follows;

[tex]C = \dfrac{Q}{V}[/tex]

Therefore;

[tex]V = \dfrac{Q}{C}[/tex]

Given that Q = Q₀, we get;

[tex]V = \dfrac{Q_0}{\dfrac{1}{2} \times C_0} = 2 \times \dfrac{Q_0}{C_0} = 2 \times V_0[/tex]

∴ V = 2 × V₀

The new potential difference, V = 2·V₀

Therefore, after the plates are 2·d apart, the new capacitance and potential difference between the plates are;

1/2·C₀, 2·V₀.

At a distance of 2d, the potential difference will be twice the potential difference before while the capacitance will be half the value before.

Given to us

The capacitance on the parallel plate capacitor = C₀The area of the plate = AThe voltage on the battery = V₀The magnitude of the charge in the plate = Q₀The new distance between the plates = 2d

What is Capacitance?

We know capacitance can be written as,

[tex]C= \dfrac{\epsilon_0 A}{d}[/tex]

where C is the capacitance,

A is the area,

d is the distance and

ε₀ is the electrostatic constant,

Capacitance before,

[tex]C= \dfrac{\epsilon_0 A}{d}[/tex]

Capacitance Afterwards,

[tex]C= \dfrac{\epsilon_0 A}{2d}[/tex]

[tex]C=\dfrac{1}{2} \times \dfrac{\epsilon_0 A}{d}[/tex]

[tex]C=\dfrac{1}{2} \times C_0[/tex]

What is Voltage(Potential difference)?

We know that  for the voltage we can write,

[tex]\rm Voltage = \dfrac{Charge}{Capacitance}[/tex]

Voltage before

[tex]V=\dfrac{Q_0}{C_0}[/tex]

Voltage Afterwards

[tex]V_{new} = \dfrac{Q_0}{C_{new}}[/tex]

[tex]V_{new} = \dfrac{Q_0}{\dfrac{1}{2} \times C_0}[/tex]

[tex]V_{new} = 2 \times\dfrac{Q_0}{C_0}[/tex]

[tex]V_{new} = 2 \times V_0[/tex]

Hence, At a distance of 2d, the potential difference will be twice the potential difference before while the capacitance will be half the value before.
