a small dog is trained to jump straight up a distance of 1.2m. How much kinetic energy does the 7.2kg dog need to jump this high? ( the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8m/s2)

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: We are told to find the Kinetic Energy required by the dog

Energy = Force * Distance

According to the question,
Distance = 1.2 m
But we are not given any value for the Force

However, we know that,
Force = Mass * Acceleration

According to the question,
Mass = 7.2kg
Acceleration = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore, 
Force = 7.2 * 9.8
Force = 70.56 Newton

Remember, what we are looking for is the Energy
Energy = Force * Distance
Now we know that Force = 70.56 Newton
Distance = 1.2 m

Therefore,
Energy = 70.56 * 1.2
Energy = 84.7 Joules
Answer 2
Answer: When the pooch is 1.2m off the ground,
her potential energy is ...

                (m) ·(g) ·(h)

            = (7.2 kg) ·(9.8 m/s² ) ·(1.2 m)

            =         84.7 joules .

If she doesn't leave the ground with AT LEAST that much
kinetic energy, she'll never make it to 1.2 m.

Answers

In order to answer these questions, we need to know the charges on
the electron and proton, and then we need to know the electron's mass. 
I'm beginning to get the creepy feeling that, in return for the generous
5 points, you also want me to go and look these up so I can use them
in calculations ... go and collect my own straw to make the bricks with,
as it were. 

Ok, Rameses:

Elementary charge . . . . .  1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹  coulomb
                                        negative on the electron
                                        plussitive on the proton

Electron rest-mass . . . . .  9.11 x 10⁻³¹  kg


a).  The force between two charges is

      F  =  (9 x 10⁹) Q₁ Q₂ / R²

          =  (9 x 10⁹ m/farad) (-1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹C) (1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹C) / (5.35 x 10⁻¹¹m)²

          =     ( -2.304 x 10⁻²⁸) / (5.35 x 10⁻¹¹)²

          =          8.05 x 10⁻⁸  Newton .


b).  Centripetal acceleration  = 

                                               v² / r  .

                  A  =  (2.03 x 10⁶)² / (5.35 x 10⁻¹¹)

                     =      7.7 x 10²²  m/s² .

That's an enormous acceleration ... about  7.85 x 10²¹  G's !
More than enough to cause the poor electron to lose its lunch.

It would be so easy to check this work of mine ...
First I calculated the force, then I calculated the centripetal acceleration.
I didn't use either answer to find the other one, and I didn't use  "  F = MA "
either.

I could just take the ' F ' that I found, and the 'A' that I found, and the
electron mass that I looked up, and mash the numbers together to see
whether  F = M A .

I'm going to leave that step for you.   Good luck !

The attraction of liquid particles for a solid surface is due to ____.

Answers

Answer:

the force of adhesion.

Explanation:

The attractive force between the two types of molecules is called adhesive force.

So, the force between the liquid molecule and the solid molecule is adhesive in nature.

The attractive force acts between the two same type of molecules is called cohesive force.

This attraction occurs from adhesion, also known as adsorption 

A mass of 1.0 kg is initially held in place on a ramp of angle 45o at height of 20. meters above the ground. The mass is released and slides to the bottom of the ramp (h=0). There is friction between the mass and the ramp. At the bottom of the ramp, the object has a speed of 10. m/s. The thermal energy was generated by the friction as the mass slides down the ramp is closest to which value?

Answers

Answer:

The thermal energy generated by the friction as the mass slides down the ramp is \bf{146~J}.

Explanation:

Given:

The mass of the object is, m = 1.0~kg

The angle of the ramp is, \theta = 45^(0)

The initial height of the object on the ramp is, h = 20~m

The final velocity of the object is, v = 10~m/s

When the object is at rest on the ramp, its total energy is potential energy. When it moves down the ramp its kinetic energy is increased and potential energy is decreased and a part of its energy is lost to overcome the force of friction. Finally, when it is at the bottom of the ramp, its total energy becomes only kinetic energy.

The total energy of the object at a height 20~m on the ramp is given by

E_(1) &=& mgh\n~~~~&=& (1.0~kg)(9.8~m/s^(2))(20~m)\n~~~~&=& 196~J

When the object is at the bottom of the ramp, its total energy is given by

E_(2) &=& (1)/(2)mv^(2)\n~~~~&=& (1)/(2)(1.0~kg)(10~m/s)^(2)\n~~~~&=& 50~J

So, the energy that is lost as thermal energy is given by

E &=& E_(1) - E_(2)\n~~~~&=& 196~J - 50~J\n~~~~&=& 146~J

What type of electron is available to form bonds?

Answers

Answer:

Valence electrons

Explanation:

The valence electrons are found in the outermost shell of an atom. They are the most loosely held electrons found within an atom. These valence electrons are involved and are used to form bonds when atoms combines together.

The energy required to remove these loosely held electrons is relatively low compared to electrons located in the inner orbitals. This is why when atoms combines, they use the outermost electrons to form bonds and mimic stable atoms like those of the noble gases.

A 100-meter sprint is a race using only the straight side of a racetrack. A 400-meter sprint is a race that makes one complete lap around a racetrack. Why are velocity and speed the same for a 100-m sprint but not a 400-m sprint?

Answers

Speed is a scalar quantity (meaning it can be measured using a single number that represents the amount), while velocity is composed of the scalar quantity plus the direction. As the 100-meter sprint only takes place in one direction, the speed and velocity for this is just the same. For the 400-meter sprint however, the direction of your speed changes as you turn for her curved part of the race. Therefore, a direction change is happening. 

Sample response on Edu is:

In the 100-m sprint, the displacement is 100 meters and the distance is 100 meters. This means speed and velocity are the same for the 100-m sprint. In the 400-m sprint, the distance is 400-m, but the runners stop at the same place they start so the displacement is zero. Zero displacement means zero velocity.
