What is the unit for measuring energy

Joule

For all falling objects on Earth, acceleration

A. is constant and negative. 

B. is constant and positive.

C. increases from negative to positive.

D. decreases from positive to negative.

A. is constant and negative. - Correct. 

The acceleration is a constant -9.81 m/s2, which causes all falling objects to accelerate toward the center of Earth.

What does the symbol V, R stand for

voltage, resistance

Difference between Ohmic and non Ohmic devices

The device which follows ohm's law for all voltages across it is called as an ohmic device.(i.e resistance is constant for all currents that pass through it).

The device that does not follow ohm's law is known as a non-ohmic device (i.e the resistance is different for different currents passing through it).

For the winter, a bird flies 20.0 m/s due south against a gust of wind with a speed of 2.5 m/s.

What is the resultant velocity of the duck?

17.5 m/s south. (20-2.5)

What is the energy used in this situation: A 1400-W blow dryer is used for 10 min?

E = P t = 1400×10/60 =233.33 Wh

A small stone is dropped from the top of a tall building. It takes 3 seconds to reach the ground. The acceleration of the stone on the way down is 10 m/s2. Calculate the speed of the stone as it hits the ground.

speed = acceleration x change in time = 10 x 3 = 30 m/s
