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

A small 18 kilogram canoe is floating downriver at a speed of 1 m/s. What is the canoe's kinetic energy?
In-s [12.5K]

Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed²).

A Physicist in the canoe, or on a raft floating downriver next to the canoe, will say that the canoe's kinetic energy is zero.

A Physicist on the riverbank, watching the canoe drift by at 1 m/s, will say that its kinetic energy is 9 Joules.

They're both correct.

What is the difference between a hurricane and a typhoon
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Well, a hurricane is a storm with violent winds (more less with a force of 12 in the scale that measures winds) and it happens especially in the Caribbean sea. While a typhoon is also a strong storm but it happens especially in the Indian region and the western pacific oceans.

In conclusion, their difference is the area in which they happen.

stephen buys a new moped . he travels 4km south and then 6km east. how far does he need to go to get back where he started??
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

My answer is 7.2 km

Explanation:

When Stephen goes to the south and then to the east, he is drawing a right triangle, where the 4 km and 6 km sides are the cathetus of a right triangle.

Then we use the Pithagorean theorem to solve this problem. We need to find the hypotenuse.

c² = a² + b²

c² = 4² + 6²

c² = 16 + 36

c² = 52

c = 7.2 km
