you can find it using the equation: potential energy=mass*gravitational acceleration*height.

energy=50kg*9.8N/kg*40m=19600Nm=19600J or 19.6kJ

Sometimes they use 10 instead of 9.8 for the g constant.

if you were to increase either mass or speed by a unit of 1 in a joules calculation, which would give you more energy?

musickatia [10]

Answer:increasing any of them, either mass or speed by 1unit will cause an increase in energy,

Explanation:

By increasing any of them, either mass or speed will cause an increase in energy.

Because kinetic energy is proportional to mass and also directly proportional to velocity

The drawing shows a plot of the output emf of a generator as a function of time t. The coil of this device has a cross-sectional

adell [148]

This question is incomplete, the missing image uploaded along this answer below;

Answer:

a) frequency is 2.381 Hz

b) the angular frequency/speed is 14.96 rad/s

c) the magnitude of the magnetic field is 0.5199 T

Explanation:

Given that;

cross sectional Area A = 0.018 m²

Number of turns N = 200

from the diagram. maximum time T = 0.42 sec

a) the frequency f of the generator in hertz

frequency = 1 / T

we substitute

frequency = 1 / 0.42 = 2.381 Hz

Therefore, frequency is 2.381 Hz

b) the angular frequency in rad/s

angular speed ω = 2πf

we substitute

ω = 2π × 2.381

ω = 14.96 rad/s

Therefore, the angular frequency/speed is 14.96 rad/s

c) the magnitude of the magnetic field.

to determine the magnitude of the magnetic field, we use the following expression;

e = NBAω

from the diagram, e = 28.0 V

so we substitute

28.0 V = 200 × B × 0.018 × 14.96

28 = 53.856B

B = 28 / 53.856

B = 0.5199 T

Therefore, the magnitude of the magnetic field is 0.5199 T

2. Both ice and wind (glaciers, and really strong winds)
3. Water
4. Its inertia (the Earth is constantly "falling" towards the Sun due to its gravitational pull, but its inertia helps the Earth from maintaining its orbit.)
5. The rotating Earth
6. one year
7. The equator
8. It depends on how much of the sunlit side of the Moon faces the Earth
9. When an object in space comes between the Sun and a third object
10. D<span>ifferences in how much the Moon and the Sun pull on different parts of Earth

Assume: Moving to the right is positive. A(n) 7.7 g object moving to the right at 22 cm/s makes an elastic head-on collision wit

krek1111 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall apply the formula for velocity in case of elastic collision which is given below

v₁ = (m₁ - m₂)u₁ / (m₁ + m₂) + 2m₂u₂ / (m₁ + m₂)

m₁ and u₁ is mass and velocity of first object , m₂ and u₂ is mass and velocity of second object before collision and v₁ is velocity of first velocity after collision.

Here u₁ = 22 cm /s , u₂ = - 14 cm /s . m₁ = 7.7 gm , m₂ = 18 gm

v₁ = ( 7.7 - 18 ) x 22 / ( 7.7 + 18 ) + 2 x 18 x - 14 / ( 7.7 + 18 )

= - 8.817 - 19.6

= - 28.4 cm / s

A 2.0-kilogram ball traveling north at 4.0 meters per second collides head on with a 1.0-kilogram ball traveling south at 8.0 me

enyata [817]

Answer:

We know the momentum after the collision MUST be equal to the momentum BEFORE the collision.

Momentum is a VECTOR quantity having both magnitude and direction. The first ball has momentum P =m*v = 2*4 = 8 at 90degrees. The second ball has momentum P = 1*8 = 8 at -90 or 270 degrees. They sum to zero when you perform vector addition.
