A huge block of stone has a mass of 650kg and gains 70000j of gpe. how high has it been raised? (g = 10m/s2 )

1 answer:

5 0

The formula for calculating GPE is

GPE = m x h x g

Where m is mass, h is height raised and g is gravity.

To solve the problem we just have to substitute the values we are given

70,000J = 650 x 10 x y

70,000J = 6500 x y

70,000 / 6500 = y

10.769 = y

So, the block of stone has been raised approximately 10.769 metres.

Combine these three velocity vectors into a resultant: 3.0 m/s north, 4.0 m/s east 1.0 m/s west. Identify the resultant vector

Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

The resultant vector is 1 m/s

Explanation:

The resultant vector is 1 m/s west based on triangle law of vector addition, when two sides of a triangle is represented by two vectors, the resultant vector is the third side of the triangle.

Why are high tides found simultaneously on opposite sides of earth?

dexar [7]

Explanation:

Why are high tides found simultaneously on opposite sides of Earth? The tidal bulges occur on both sides of Earth that are aligned with the tide-generating body. The ocean water experiencing high tide rotates around Earth on a 12-hour cycle.

There is a puncture in the inner tor of your bicycle. Give a method to detect the position of the puncture

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

Explanation:

The first method to engage is to listen to where the sound of air in the inner Tor escaping originated and look to see if u can find it. You can then feel the escape air with your hand.

You can Put it inside a container of water and see the bubble and rotate the inner tube to pass all of it through the water

A quantity that has direction as well as size is a scalar.<br><br><br> True or False

lisov135 [29]

Answer:

A quantity that does not depend on the direction is called a scalar quantity. Vector quantities have two characteristics, a magnitude, and a direction. Scalar quantities have only a magnitude. When comparing two vector quantities of the same type, you have to compare both the magnitude and the direction.

Scalar quantities only have magnitude (size). Scalar quantities include distance...

A quantity that is specified by both size and direction is a vector. Displacement includes both size and direction and is an example of a vector. However, distance is a physical quantity that does not include a direction and isn't a vector.

Explanation:

hope this helps...

The y-position of a damped oscillator as a function of time is shown in the figure.

NISA [10]

(1) The period of the oscillator is 1 second.

(2) The damping coefficient is 0.93.

<h3>What is period of oscillation?</h3>

The period of oscillation is the time taken to make one complete cycle.

From the graph, the time taken to make one complete oscillation is 1 second.

<h3>Damping coefficient</h3>

equation of the wave is given as;

y(t) = Ae^(-btx) cos(ωt)

3.5 = Ae^(-0) cos(0)

3.5 = A x 1

A = 3.5 cm

-3 = 3.5e^(-bx) cos(ω)

-3/3.5 = e^(-bx) cos(ω)

-0.857 = e^(-bx) cos(ω)

-0.857 / cos(ω) = e^(-bx)

ln[-0.857 / cos(ω)] = -bx

ln[-0.857 / cos(ω)] / b = - x ---- (1)

-2 = 3.5e^(-2bx) cos(2ω)

-0.57 = e^(-2bx) cos(2ω)

ln[-0.57 / cos(2ω)] = -2bx

ln[-0.57 / cos(2ω)] /2b = - x ------(2)

solve (1) and (2)

ln[-0.57 / cos(2ω)]/2b = ln[-0.857 / cos(ω)] /b

-0.57 / cos(ω) = 2(-0.857 / cos(ω))

2(-0.857/cosω) = -0.57/cos2ω

-(2 x 0.857) / (-0.57) = cosω/cos 2ω

3 = cosω/cos 2ω

3(cos 2ω) = cosω

3(2cos²ω - 1) = cos ω

6cos²ω - 6 = cosω

6cos²ω - cosω - 6 = 0

let cosω = y

6y² - y - 6 = 0

solve the quadratic equation;

y = 1.1 or -0.92

cosω = -0.92

ω = arc cos(-0.92)

ω = 2.74 rad/s

From equation (1)

ln[-0.857 / cos(ω)] / x = -b ---- (1)

let x = 1

ln(-0.857/cos(2.74) = -b

-0.93 = -b

b = 0.93

Thus, the damping coefficient is 0.93.
