The potential energy of a 25 kg bicycle resting at the top of a hill 3 m high will be 735.75 J.

<h3>What is potential energy?</h3>

The potential energy is due to the virtue of the position and the height. The unit for the potential energy is the joule.

The potential energy is mainly depending upon the height of the object. when the cyclist is at the highest position, the height is maximum. Therefore, the potential energy is also maximum.

The potential energy is found as;

PE=mgh

PE=25 kg× 9.81 m/s² ×3 m

PE= 735.75 J.

Hence, the potential energy of a 25 kg bicycle resting at the top of a hill 3 m high will be 735.75 J.

A car is traveling clockwise around a circular racetrack of radius 1440m. When the car is at the northernmost point of the circl
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

East

Explanation:

In circular motion, the velocity of the object will always be tangential to the radius of the circle. In this case, since the car is at the northernmost point of the circular track, then it must be moving right or towards the east, no matter what the acceleration might be at that very moment or what the radius of the track is. If it's moving clockwise, then it moves right (towards the east).

Please answer formula is in text
Travka [436]

E=mc^2 n its given 1kg = 9x10^16J

so need to figure out the total mass loss n u can find the energy released

mass loss when 4x H atom combines to form 1x He atom in a fusion reaction is given as 4.59x10^-29kg

1 mole of He has 6.02x10^23 He atoms

so 2.7 moles of He has 2.7x6.02x10^23 He atoms

the total mass loss for 2.7 moles of He created in a fusion reaction

= 2.7x6.02x10^23 x 4.59x10^-29kg

= 7.46x10^-5kg

radiation energy released from this fusion reaction

= 7.46x10^-5 x 9x10^16J

= 6.7x10^12J

its 60 BILLION times more than burning carbon!!

You dip your finger into a pan of water twice each second,producing waves with crests that are separated by 0.17 m.
____ [38]

Answer:

a) 2Hz

b) 0.5seconds

c) 0.34m/s

Explanation:

a) Frequency is defined as the number of oscillations completed by a wave in one second.

If my finger is dipped into a pan of water twice each second, it means that my hand has made 2 oscillations through the water in one second. An oscillation is a to and fro movement of a particle, body or wave through a medium.

Based on the conclusion, the frequency of the waterwaves will be 2Hertz or 2cycles/sec.

2) Period T of a wave is defined as the time taken by a wave to complete one oscillation. It is the reciprocal of the frequency of a wave.

T = 1/F

Given frequency = 2Hertz

T = 1/2

T = 0.5seconds

Period of the water wave is 0.5seconds

c) speed of the wave v is expressed according to the relationship:

velocity = frequency × wavelength

Given:

Frequency = 2Hertz

Wavelength = 0.17m (Since it is the difference between two successive crest or trough of a wave)

Velocity = 2×0.17

Velocity = 0.34m/s

Two​ high-speed ferries leave at the same time from a city to go to the same island. The first​ ferry, the​ Cat, travels a
kumpel [21]

Answer:

1 hour

Explanation:

Since the definition of velocity is v=x/t, we can calculate the position at time t of an object moving at speed v with x=vt.

The position of the first ferry is x_1=v_1t

The position of the second ferry is x_2=v_2t

We want to know when they will be 6 miles apart. This means, if we call that distance d, that we want to know when the difference between their positions will be d, or x_1-x_2=d (we know that at the beginning the position of the ferry 1 is of higher value than that of ferry 2 since it left before).

We use our previous formulas then:

d=x_1-x_2=v_1t-v_2t=(v_1-v_2)t

Since we want the time, we do:

t=\frac{d}{v_1-v_2}

And substitute our values:

t=\frac{6\ miles}{30\ miles/hour-24\ miles/hour}=\frac{6\ miles}{6\ miles/hour} =1\ hour
