If you slide down a rope, it's possible to create enough thermal energy to burn your hands or your legs where they grip the rope. Suppose a 30 kg child slides down a rope at a playground, descending 2.5 m at a constant speed. How much thermal energy is created as she slides down the rope?

What organization and environment is described above?

1. what is the relationship between wavelength and the penetrating power of an electromagnetic wave? a) the penetrating power has no relationship to the wavelength. b) the penetrating power increases as the wavelength increases. c) the penetrating power decreases as the wavelength increases. d) the penetrating power decreases as the wavelength decreases. 2. as ice melts and turns into water, the speed of sound through the material would most likely do what? justify your answer. a) the speed would not change because the material is always water. b) the speed of sound would increase because the density of water is less than that of ice. c) the speed of sound would increase because energy is added to ice in order to make it melt. d) the speed of sound would decrease because sound travels faster through solids than liquids. 3.which of these waves need a medium to travel through? a) sound b) x-rays c) infrared rays d) visible light

When you hold a rectangular object, how does the area of the side that is resting on your hand affect the pressure and the force that the object exerts?
