Explanation:

Gravitational Potential Energy can be calculated with the following formula:

mgh

Where m is mass, g is Gravitational Field Strength, and h is height. GFS on Earth is always 9.81, the combined mass of the cyclist and the bicycle is 70, and the height is 120. Multiplying these values together, we get:

82,404J.

A block of wood is 4 cm wide, 5 cm long, and 10 cm high. It weighs 100 grams. Calculate its volume. Calculate its density. Will
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

V=200cm^3\\\\\rho =0.500g/cm^3

It will float.

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, given the width, length and height, we can compute the volume as follows:

V=W*L*H\\\\V=4cm*5cm*10cm\\\\V=200cm^3

Moreover, since the density is computed via the division of the mass by the volume:

\rho =\frac{m}{V}

We obtain:

\rho =\frac{100g}{200cm^3} \\\\\rho =0.500g/cm^3

In such a way, since the solid has a lower density than the water, we infer it will float.

Best regards.

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

the reason for the acceleration month that the coefficient of kinetic friction is less than the coefficient of satic frictionExplanation:

This exercise uses Newton's second law with the condition that the acceleration is zero, by the time the body begins to slide. At this point the balance of forces is

    fr- w || = 0

The expression for friction force is that it is proportional to the coefficient of friction by normal.

    fr = μ N

When the system is immobile, the coefficient of friction is called static coefficient and has a value, this is due to the union between  the surface, when the movement begins some joints are broken giving rise to coefficient of kinetic friction less than static.  

In consequence a lower friction force, which is why the system comes out of balance and begins to accelerate.

      μ kinetic <μ static

  In all this movement the normal with changed that the angle of the table remains fixed.

Consequently, the reason for the acceleration month that the coefficient of kinetic friction is less than the coefficient of satic friction

The mass of a particular eagle is twice that of a hunted pigeon. Suppose the pigeon is flying north at ????????,2=17.9vi,2=17.9
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

V=27.24 m/s

Explanation:

We need to apply the linear momentum conservation theorem:

m_1*v_{o1}+m_2*v_{o2}=m_t*v_{f}\\

The velocity of the eagle its defined by its two components:

v_x=V*cos(\theta)\\v_y=V*sin(\theta)\\v_x=35.9*cos(61.9^o)=16.9m/s\\v_y=35.9*sin(61.9^o)=31.7m/s

2*(16.9m/s(i)+31.66m/s(j))+17.9m/s(i)=3*v_f\\v_f=17.23m/s(i)+21.10m/s(j)

because speed is a scalar value:

V=\sqrt{(21.10m/s)^2+(17.23)^2}\\V=27.24m/s
