Batman (95kg) is standing on top of a 50m high building looking out over the city of Gotham. Given that he uses the potential en
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

47 kJoules (kJ)

Explanation:

Potential enegy on Earth is given by the relationship:

P.E. = mgh, where m is mass, g is the acceleration due to Earth's gravity, and h is height. Since we are given metric values, we will look for an answer that is consistent with Joules, the metric measure of energy. 1 Joule is defined as 1 kg*m^2/s^2, so we wnat units of kg, m, and sec.

We are given:

m = 95kg

h = 50 meters

Earth's gravity, g is 9.8 m/s^2

Enter the data:

P.E. = mgh

P.E. = (95kg)(9.8m/s^2)(50m)

P.E. = 46550 kg*m^2/s^2 or 46550 Joules(J)

Since we only have 2 sig figs, and since 1kJ =- 1000J

We can state the potential energy is 47kJ.

Spiderman has 47kJ of potential energy for the start of any dive back to Earth. [He needed that same amount of energy to reach that height, but we don't know from where it came. A jump, helicopter, beamed up by Scotty, or tossed up by Doctor Octopus.]

Suppose you wish to whirl a pail full of water in a vertical circle at a constant speed without spilling any of its contents (ev
Yanka [14]

Answer:

V = 2.87 m/s

Explanation:

The minimum speed required would be that at which the acceleration due to gravity is negated by the centrifugal force on the water.

Thus, we simply need to set the centripetal acceleration equal to gravity and solve for the speed V using the following equation:

Centripetal acceleration = V^2 / r

where r is the distance of water from the pivot or shoulder.

For our case, r will be 0.65 + 0.19 = 0.84 m

and solving the above equation we get:

9.81 = V^2 / 0.84

V^2 = 8.2404

V = 2.87 m/s
