Help with Physical Science! I have to do this discussion on potential and kinetic energy. The example of the problem is a 4 poun

d weight being lifted from the ground on a string. There are also scissors there to cut the string for the 4 pound to drop. The two questions is to explain how the object (the weight on the string) had potential energy. And how the object had kinetic energy. THANK YOU

Answer:

Tying a 4 weight pound on a string is a potential energy because it is at rest but cutting it and letting it fall experiences a kinetic energy because it will be in motion.

Which of the following would be used in luminosity calculations?
Daniel [21]

Answer:

1) joule

2) kgm^{2}/s^{2}

3) 10\%

Explanation:

1) Luminosity is the <u>amount of light emitted</u> (measured in Joule) by an object in a unit of<u> time</u> (measured in seconds). Hence in SI units luminosity is expressed as joules per second (\frac{J}{s}), which is equal to Watts (W).

This amount of light emitted is also called radiated electromagnetic power, and when this is measured in relation with time, the result is also called radiant power emitted by a light-emitting object.

Therefore, if we want to calculate luminosity the Joule as a unit will be used.

2) Work W is expressed as force  F multiplied by the distane  d :

W=F.d

Where force has units of  kgm/s^{2} and distance units of m.

If we input the units we will have:

W=(kgm/s^{2})(m)

W=kgm^{2}/s^{2}  This is 1Joule (1 J) in the SI system, which is also equal to 1 Nm

3) The formula to calculate the percent error is:

\% error=\frac{|V_{exp}-V_{acc}|}{V_{acc}} 100\%

Where:

V_{exp}=7.34 (10)^{-11} Nm^{2}/kg^{2} is the experimental value

V_{acc}=6.67 (10)^{-11} Nm^{2}/kg^{2} is the accepted value

\% error=\frac{|7.34 (10)^{-11} Nm^{2}/kg^{2}-6.67 (10)^{-11} Nm^{2}/kg^{2}|}{6.67 (10)^{-11} Nm^{2}/kg^{2}} 100\%

\% error=10.04\% \approx 10\% This is the percent error

Activity
qwelly [4]

Answer:Eating. Your muscles in your arms and mouth use energy to feed itself. Then your body digest the food which also takes energy.

Sleep. When your tired, you don’t have much energy. It is said that you use more energy while your sleeping. But how do you become energized if you were using even more energy than before?
