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.

A sound wave travels in a straight line at a constant speed of 660 mph. What is
Fed [463]

Answer:

a = 0

Explanation:

The velocity of a sound wave in a straight line is 660 mph. The wave is moving with a constant velocity. It means that the change in velocity is equal to 0.

We know that acceleration of an object is equal to the change in velocity divided by time taken. But here the change in velocity is 0. As a result the acceleration of the sound wave is 0.

If F1 is the magnitude of the force exerted
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer: 3. F1 = F2

Explanation:

According to <u>Newton's law of Gravitation</u>, the force F exerted <u>between two bodies</u> or objects of masses M and m and separated by a distance r is equal to the product of their masses divided by the square of the distance:  

F=G\frac{Mm}{r^2} (1)

Where Gis the gravitational constant

Now, in the especific case of the Earth and the satellite, where the Earth has a mass M and satellite a mass m, being both separated a distance r, the force exerted  by the Earth on the satellite is:

F1=G\frac{Mm}{r^2}   (2)

And the force  exerted by the satellite on the Earth is:

F2=G\frac{Mm}{r^2}   (3)

As we can see equations (2) and (3) are equal, hence the magnitude of the gravitational force is the same for both:

F1=F2

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

Johnny created an electromagnet out of a solenoid (a coil of wires with 20 loops), an iron core (of 1 nail), and a single 9 V battery. When Johnny does this, he creates a small magnetic field that allows him to pick up 2 paper clips. Using a CER format, explain to Johnny three things he could change that would increase the strength of his magnetic field and why each change increases the magnetic field. You may want to write three paragraphs to make this easier for the reader to understand
