369 kg

Explanation:

Step 1:

We know that the expression for potential energy is

PE = mgh

where, m =Mass

            g = Acceleration due to gravity

            h Height

Step 2:

Here m = ?

         PE = 108486

         h = 30 m

          g = 9.8 ms⁻²

108486 = 30 * 9.86 * m

m= 108486 / (9.8*30) = 369 kg

Answer:

The speed with which the man flies forward is 5.5 m/s

Explanation:

The mass of the man = 100 kg

The mass of the scooter = 10 kg

The speed with which the man was traveling on the scooter = 5 m/s

The speed of the scooter after it hits the rock = 0 m/s

Let v represent the speed with which the man flies forward

The formula for momentum, P, is P = Mass × Velocity

The conservation of linear momentum principle is, the total initial momentum = The total final momentum, therefore, we have;

The total initial momentum = (100 kg + 10 kg) × 5 m/s = 550 kg·m/s

The total final momentum = 100 kg × v + 10 kg × 0 m/s = 100 kg × v

When the momentum is conserved, we have;

550 kg·m/s = 100 kg × v

∴ v = 550 kg·m/s/(100 kg) = 5.5 m/s.

The speed with which the man flies forward = v = 5.5 m/s

a rectangular tank measures 12.5 metres long 10.0 wide and 2.0 metre high calculate the mass of the water in the tank when it is
Tom [10]

Answer:

250000kg

Explanation:

Mass =density * volume

Density=1000kg/m³

Volume=l*w*h

12.5*10.0*2.0=250m³

Mass=1000 *250

=250000kg

The forces that hold different atoms or ions together are
denis23 [38]

Answer:

Chemical bonds

Explanation:

The chemical bonds hold the different type atoms or ions together.

The type of chemical bonds :

1. Ionic bond  ;

 Ions or atoms changes the electron and form ionic bond.Those atoms gains the electron gets negative charge and those atoms donate the electron gets positive charge.

2.Covalent bond :

  In this type of bond atoms share the electrons and form covalent bonds.

3. Metallic bond :

This type of bond are present in the metals.In this atoms are used free electrons to form bonds.

Therefore answer is --

Chemical bonds
