Which graph accurately shows the relationship between kinetic energy and speed as speed increases?
Answers
Answer:
B
Explanation:
kinetic energy (KE) is the energy possessed by moving bodies. It can be expressed as:
KE = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]m[tex]v^{2}[/tex]
Where: m is the mass of the object, and v its speed.
For example, a stone of mass 2kg was thrown and moves with a speed of 3 m/s. Determine the kinetic energy of the stone.
Thus,
KE = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x 2 x [tex]3^{2}[/tex]
= 9
KE = 9.0 Joules
Assume that the speed of the stone was 4 m/s, then its KE would be:
KE = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x 2 x [tex]4^{2}[/tex]
= 16
KE = 16.0 Joules
Therefore, it can be observed that as speed increases, the kinetic energy increases. Thus option B is appropriate.

why does the fire snake weight less than it was when it was on fire
Answers
Answer:
When Zoe weighs the ingredients (sugar and baking soda), it weighs 25 grams in total. When she weighs the “snake” it weighs 23 grams. This is because some carbon dioxide gas produced during the chemical reaction escapes into the air.
A distance of 0.002 m separates two objects of equal mass. If the gravitational force between them is
0.0104 N, find the mass of each object.
Answers
Answer: 24.97 kg
Explanation:
The gravitational force between two objects of masses M1, and M2 respectively, and separated by a distance R, is:
F = G*(M1*M2)/R^2
Where G is the gravitational constant:
G = 6.67*10^-11 m^3/(kg*s^2)
In this case, we know that
R = 0.002m
F = 0.0104 N
and that M1 = M2 = M
And we want to find the value of M, then we can replace those values in the equation to get
0.0104 N = (6.67*10^-11 m^3/(kg*s^2))*(M*M)/(0.002m)^2
(0.0104 N)*(0.002m)^2/(6.67*10^-11 m^3/(kg*s^2)) = M^2
623.69 kg^2 = M^2
√(623.69 kg^2) = M = 24.97 kg
This means that the mass of each object is 24.97 kg
