4 0

Explanation:

an object's gravitational potential energy Eg is m×g×h where:

m=mass

g=9.8m/s²

h=height relative to the closest object below it (because it cannot potentially fall through it

so Eg = 15×9.8×5=735J

Water is used to cool down automobile engines when they get hot. Why is water used as a coolant? A. Water is a good conductor. B
Mrac [35]

Water is usually used to cool down automobile engines when they get hot, yes. Therefore, that means water has a high heat capacity.

That makes the answer letter D you provided above.

D) Water has a high heat capacity.

Another example would be trying to put out a fire with a bucket of water. Usually, you can put out the fire debating on the size!

The unit for measuring electric power is the <br> A. ampere.<br> B. volt.<br> C. ohm.<br> D. watt.
Drupady [299]
The correct answer is D: Watt. This unit was named after James Watt, and is used to express the equivalent of one joule per second in energy. In experiments and on the packaging for electrical products such as light-bulbs, the measurement will usually be written in its abbreviated format: W.

Explain why the top of the loop cannot be the same height as (or higher than) the top of the first hill. Assume the roller coast
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

By conservation of energy, it can climb up to a height equal to that it went down before. However, due to the friction in the machines, the total mechanical energy of the roller coaster will decrease. As a result, the first "hill" of many roller coasters are the highest, but the followings will have decreasing heights.

The electric field strength in the space between two closely spaced parallel disks is 1.0 105 N/C. This field is the result of t
balu736 [363]

Answer:

D=2.996\times 10^{-2} m

Explanation:

*Assume the parallel disks have equal diameters.

Given the electric strength as  1.0\times 10^5 N/C.  transferring 3.9\times 10^9 electrons, the disk's Area can be calculated using the formula:

E=\frac{\eta}{\epsilon_o}=\frac{Q}{A\epsilon_o}\\\\A=\frac{Q}{E\epsilon_o}\\\\=\frac{(3.9\times 10^9)\times (1.6\times10^{-19})}{(1.0\times 10^5 )\times (8.85\times10^{-12})}\\\\A=7.0508\times 10^{-4} \ m^2

#We now calculate the disks diameter:

A=\pi(D/2)^2\\\\2\sqrt{\frac{A}{\pi}}=D\\\\=2\sqrt{7.0508\times 10^{-4}/\pi}\\\\D=2.996\times 10^{-2} \ m

Hence, the diameter of the disks is D=2.996\times 10^{-2} m
