How is potential energy unique?

Physics
1 answer:
ahrayia [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

is uniquely defined.

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy gained by an object being lifted is equal to the work done on the object by an applied force, which exactly cancels gravity. The applied force does positive work. When the object is being lifted, the gravitational force does negative work.

Light of wavelength 660 nm passes through two narrow slits 0.65 mm apart. The screen is 2.55 m away. A second source of unknown
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Distance of 2 nd order fringe  x₁ = 2 λ D/d [ λ is wave length , D is distance of screen , d is slit distance.

x₁ = 2 x 660 x10⁻⁹x 2.55/.65 x 10⁻³.= 5.17846 x 10⁻³ m.

Distance of fringe for 2nd radiation = 5.178 x 10⁻³ -1.17 x 10⁻³ = 4.008 x10⁻³

4.008 x 10⁻³ = 2 x λ x 2.55/.65 x 10⁻³

λ = 511 nm approx.

Two electrons exert a force of repulsion of 1.2 N on each other. How far apart are they? The elementary charge is 1.602 × 10−19
sergejj [24]

The distance between the charges is 13.86 X 10⁴m

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Force, F = 1.2N

Charge, q₁ = 1.602 X 10⁻¹⁹ C

k = 8.987 X 10⁹ Nm²/C²

Distance, d = ?

According to Coulomb's law:

F = k\frac{q_1q_2}{r^2} \\\\

Substituting the value in the formula we get:

1.2 = 8.987X 10^9 X\frac{1.602 X 10^-^1^9 X 1.602 X 10^1^9}{r^2} \\\\1.2 = \frac{23.06 X 10^9}{r^2} \\\\r^2 = 19.22 X 10^9\\\\r = 13.86 X 10^4m

Therefore, the distance between the charges is 13.86 X 10⁴m

An olympic high diver has gravitational potential energy because of her height. as she dives, what becomes of her energy just be
sammy [17]

An Olympic high diver has gravitational potential energy because of her height. As she dives, kinetic energy becomes of her energy just before she hits the water.

Gravitational potential energy is the energy possessed or acquired by an object due to a change in its position when it is present in a gravitational field. In simple terms, it can be said that gravitational potential energy is an energy that is related to gravitational force or to gravity.

Kinetic energy is the energy of motion, observable as the movement of an object, particle, or set of particles.

When the high diver is standing stable and not moving , that diver has a gravitational potential energy because of the height . The moment she dives , before hitting the water , from being stationary she gained some momentum and come in motion , due to motion her gravitational potential energy will change to kinetic energy before hitting the ground.

A 1500-kg car accelerates from rest to 25 m/s in 7.0 s. what is the average power delivered by the engine? (1 hp = 746 w)
AVprozaik [17]
The solution for this is:
Work done = force * distance = m*a*d and power = energy/time 
The vo=0 and vf = 25 m/s and t=7 sec. This gives... 
3.6 m/s^2 as acceleration and d=87.5 meters and thus F=ma= 5400 N. 
Energy = 5400*87.5 = 4.7E5 Joules (2 sig. figs) and Power = 67,500 Watts or 90 HP (2 sig. figs again).
