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.

Two boxers are fighting. Boxer 1 throws his 5 kg fist at boxer 2 with a speed of 9 m/s.
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

0.001 s

Explanation:

The force applied on an object is equal to the rate of change of momentum of the object:

F=\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}

where

F is the force applied

\Delta p is the change in momentum

\Delta t is the time interval

The change in momentum can be written as

\Delta p=m(v-u)

where

m is the mass

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

So the original equation can be written as

F=\frac{m(v-u)}{\Delta t}

In this problem:

m = 5 kg is the mass of the fist

u = 9 m/s is the initial velocity

v = 0 is the final velocity

F = -45,000 N is the force applied (negative because its direction is opposite to the motion)

Therefore, we can re-arrange the equation to solve for the time:

\Delta t=\frac{m(v-u)}{F}=\frac{(5)(0-9)}{-45,000}=0.001 s

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

There are 4 liquids in this experiment and red is the least dense of all of them so it should float on top, which it is doing.

The red that you see at the bottom is neither liquid nor is it a part of the experiment.

It is simply the <u>color of the bottom of the container</u> that the experiment was conducted in.

A 1000 kg car is rolling slowly across a level surface at 1m/s, heading toward a group of small innocent children.
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

The force is -1620.73 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of car = 1000 kg

Velocity = 1 m/s

Distance = 2 m

Angle = 30°

We need to calculate the force

Using formula of work done

W_{net}=K_{f}-K_{i}

F\times d=K_{f}-K_{i}

Fd\cos\theta=-K_{i}

F=\dfrac{-K_{f}}{d\cos\theta}

F=-\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2}{d\cos\theta}

Put the value into the formula

F=-\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{2}\times1000\times(1)^2}{2\times\cos30}

F=-1620.73\ N

Hence, The force is -1620.73 N.
