Answer:
0.0034 sec
Explanation:
L = initial length
T = initial time period = 2.51 s
Time period is given as
L = 1.56392 m
L' = new length
ΔT = Rise in temperature = 142 °C
α = coefficient of linear expansion = 19 x 10⁻⁶ °C
New length due to rise of temperature is given as
L' = L + LαΔT
L' = 1.56392 + (1.56392) (19 x 10⁻⁶) (142)
L' = 1.56814 m
T' = New time period
New time period is given as
T' = 2.5134 sec
Change in time period is given as
ΔT = T' - T
ΔT = 2.5134 - 2.51
ΔT = 0.0034 sec
Answer:
<em>h = 20 m</em>
Explanation:
<u>Gravitational Potential Energy</u>
Gravitational potential energy (GPE) is the energy stored in an object due to its vertical position or height in a gravitational field.
It can be calculated with the equation:
U=m.g.h
Where m is the mass of the object, h is the height with respect to a fixed reference, and g is the acceleration of gravity or .
The weight of an object of mass m is:
W = m.g
Thus, the GPE is:
U=W.h
Solving for h:
The weight of the owl is W=40 N and its GPE is U=800 J.
h = 20 m
