Answer:

16000

Explanation:

Mass(m)=2Kg (1kg= 1ooo g then 2 kg=2000 g)

Velocity(v)= 4 meter

Acceleration due to gravity (g)=10m/s

We know that,

P.E= 1/2 mv^2

or, 1/2 × 2ooo × 4^2

or, 1/2×2000 ×16

or, 2000×8

Therefore= 16000

Find the frequency, if the amplitude of a 3000g object in simple harmonic motion is 1000cm and the maximum speed of the object i

Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

A = 10 m amplitude

m = 3 kg mass of object

Vm = 5 m/s

w A = Vm where w = omega

w = 2 * pi * f

2 * pi * f 10 = 5

f = 5 / (20 * pi) = .0796 / sec

Two objects were lifted by a machine.One object had a mass of 2 kilograms and was lifted at a speed of 2 m/sec.The other had a m

NikAS [45]

Answer:

While lifting two object the machine needs the different momentum for different mass object.

Explanation:

Momentum is the quantity of motion contained in an object. Usually it is measured by the product of mass and velocity.
Momentum of first mass = 2 kg × 2 m/sec = 4 kg m/sec
Momentum of second mass = 4 kg × 3 m/sec = 12 kg m/sec
So the machine requires higher mass in motion for second object ( i.e. momentum) than the first one while lifting.

Here is the full question

Suppose there are 10,000 civilizations in the Milky Way Galaxy. If the civilizations were randomly distributed throughout the disk of the galaxy, about how far (on average) would it be to the nearest civilization?

(Hint: Start by finding the area of the Milky Way's disk, assuming that it is circular and 100,000 light-years in diameter. Then find the average area per civilization, and use the distance across this area to estimate the distance between civilizations.)

Answer:

1000 light-years (ly)

Explanation:

If we go by the hint; The area of the disk can be expressed as:

$A = \pi (\frac{D}{2})^2$
