How much energy is required to move a 1350 kg object from the earth's surface to an altitude twice the earth's radius?

Physics

Ratling [72]4 years ago

The Earth radius is r=6.37 \cdot 10^6 m.
For the law of conservation of energy, the energy required to move the object to an altitude of h=2r is equal to the gravitational potential energy of the object at that altitude, which is
U=mgh=mg(2r)=(1350 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)(2\cdot 6.37\cdot 10^6 m)=
=1.69\cdot 10^{11}J
And this is the energy required to move the object at that altitude.

What do the length of the cord and gravity determine for a pendulum?
rusak2 [61]

Answer:  C

Period/ Period of the pendulum.

Content:  

Simple pendulum is a small diameter bob which is suspended from light cord or string. The string is strong enough to stretch.

Pendulums are quiet common in use such as clocks, swings etc.,

From the simple pendulum we can find conditions under which it performs simple harmonic motion and we can also derive the expressions for Period of pendulum, frequency etc.

<em>Period of a pendulum/Time period is given by the following expression</em>

<em>               </em><em> T =2π.√(L/g) seconds </em>

<em>                 </em><em>T = period of pendulum in seconds</em>

<em>                 L = Length of the string/cord in meters</em>

<em>                 g = gravitational force in m/s²   ( g = 9.8 m/s² )</em>

<em>Period of pendulum is independent on mass of the bob.</em>

<em>So, The relation between length of the cord and gravity is used to determine the period of pendulum</em>

An office window has dimensions 3.1 m by 2.1 m. As a result of the passage of a storm, the outside air pressure drops to 0.954 a
Virty [35]

Answer:

Net forces which pushes the window is 30342.78 N.

Explanation:

Given:

Dimension of the office window.

Length of the window = 3.1 m

Width of the window = 2.1 m

Area of the window = (3.1\times 2.1) = 6.51\ m^2

Difference in air pressure = Inside pressure - Outside pressure

                                           = (1.0-0.954) atm = 0.046 atm

Conversion of the pressure in its SI unit.

⇒  1 atm = 101325 Pa

⇒ 0.046 atm = 0.046\times 101325 =4660.95 Pa

We have to find the net force.

We know,

⇒ Pressure = Force/Area

⇒ Pressure=\frac{Force }{Area}

⇒ Force =Pressure\times Area

⇒ Plugging the values.

⇒ Force =4660.95\times 6.51

⇒ Force=30342.78 Newton (N)

So,

The net forces which pushes the window is 30342.78 N.

Simlarity between longitudanal and transverse waves
babymother [125]

For transverse waves, the waves move in perpendicular direction to the source of vibration. For longitudinal waves, the waves move in parallel direction to the source of vibration . They are similar in the sense that energy is transferred in the form of waves.

What do snowshoes do that makes it easier for the person wearing them to travel deep in snow
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

snowshoes have a large surface area.

Explanation:

this distributes the weight of the person wearing them over a larger surface area, meaning that less downward pressure is applied to the snow which prevents the person sinking into the snow. This allows for easier travel in snow conditions :)

hope this helps!!
