Given:

Mass (m) of package = 1350 kg

Height, h = 760 meters

Let's find the potential energy right before the object starts to fall

To find the potential energy, apply the formula below:

P.E=m\ast g\ast h

Where:

m = 1350 kg

h = 760 meters

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s^2

Substitute values into the equation:

\begin{gathered} PE=1350\ast9.8\ast760 \\  \\ PE=10054800\text{ J }\approx10.0548\text{ MJ} \end{gathered}

Therefore, the potential energy right before the object starts of fall is 10.0548 megajoules.

ANSWER:

10.0548 MJ

A wave of wavelength 0.3 m travels 900 m in 3.0 s. Calculate its frequency.
zzz [600]

Answer:

1000 Hz

Explanation:

<em>The frequency would be 1000 Hz.</em>

The frequency, wavelength, and speed of a wave are related by the equation:

<em>v = fλ ..................(1)</em>

where v = speed of the wave, f = frequency of the wave, and λ = wavelength of the wave.

Making f the subject of the formula:

<em>f = v/λ.........................(2)</em>

Also, speed (v) = distance/time.

From the question, distance = 900 m, time = 3.0 s

Hence, v = 900/3.0 = 300 m/s

Substitute v = 300 and λ = 0.3  into equation (2):

f = 300/0.3 = 1000 Hz

Technician A says that the intake and exhaust manifolds have to be removed before removing the engine from the vehicle. Technici
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer: Technician A is correct

Explanation:

The intake manifold is the compactment that all fuel and air supply to the cylinders. It's connected to the engine so it has to be disconnected while the exhaust manifold receives all the exhaust gases from the cylinders and releases the gas through a single or double exhaust gases outlet.
