Hey! In order to find the potential energy, we need to use the potential energy formula.

PE = mgh

Since we have all of our information, we can basically sub that into the equation to find the potential.

PE = (150)(9.8)(10)
PE = 14700N

Therefore, the potential energy is 14700N.

If two children, with masses of 16 kg and 25 kg, sit in seats opposite one another in a rotating merry-go-round with an arm leng
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

92.25 kgm^2

Explanation:

Assume both children bodies are point particles. The total moment of inertia about the rotation axis of 2 points particles of mass 16 kg and 25 kg at 1.5 m arm length is

\sum I = m_1r_1^2 + m_2r_2^2

where m_1 = 16 kg, m_2 = 25 kg are the masses of 2 children r_1 = R-2 = 1.5m are their distance to the center of rotation

\sum I = 16*1.5^2 + 25*1.5^2 = 1.5^2(16 + 25) = 92.25 kgm^2

What are 7 examples of potential energy
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

<em>Hewo Otaku Kun Here! (UwU)</em>

Explanation:

1. A rock sitting at the edge of a cliff has potential energy. If the rock falls, the potential energy will be converted to kinetic energy.

2. Tree branches high up in a tree have potential energy because they can fall to the ground.

3. A stick of dynamite has chemical potential energy that would be released when the activation energy from the fuse comes into contact with the chemicals.

4. The food we eat has chemical potential energy because as our body digests it, it provides us with energy for basic metabolism.

5. A stretched spring in a pinball machine has elastic potential energy and can move the steel ball when released.

6. When a crane swings a wrecking ball up to a certain height, it gains more potential energy and has the ability to crash through buildings.

7. A set of double "A" batteries in a remote control car possess chemical potential energy which can supply electricity to run the car.

<em>happy to help!</em>

Answer:

Centripetal Acceleration 18.75 m/s^2, Rotational Kinetic Energy 843.75 J

Explanation:

a Linear acceleration (we cant find tangential acceleration with the givens so we will find centripetal)

a= ω^2*r

ω= 300rev/min

convert into rev/s

300/60= 5rev/s

a= 18.75m/s^2

b) use Krot= 1/2 Iω^2

plug in gives

1/2(30*2.25)(25)= 843.75 J

1. What conditions are necessary for a hurricane to form?
tekilochka [14]
Each year is a different anount of hurricanes but on the Pacific Ocean there is about 14 hurricanes (that's form). Hurricanes rotate clockwise. The Saffir-Simpson scale, it's measured on a scale 1-5 property damage and flooding along the coast. Hurricanes get their names from meteorologist a long time ago from their communication about them being more effectively and to tell whether to stay more farther away from the hurricane. The calmest winds in the hurricane is the, Eye. Which the Eye is also called the, cyclone. The strongest winds are in the right-front side of the hurricanes center. Hope this helped! Sorry that I couldn't get everything.
