The change in gravitational potential energy is A) 15.68 J

Explanation:

The gravitational potential energy of an object is the energy possessed by the object due to its position in the gravitational field.

The change in gravitational potential energy of an object is given by the equation:

\Delta U = mg\Delta h

where

m is the mass of the object

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

\Delta h is the change in height of the object

In this problem, we have

m = 2 kg is the mass of the frame

\Delta h = 1.3 - 0.5 = 0.8 m is the change in height

Substituting,  we find:

\Delta U = (2)(9.8)(0.8)=15.68 J

The kinetic energy of a rotating body is generally written as K=12Iω2, where I is the moment of inertia. Find the moment of iner
stira [4]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

We have a mass m revolving around an axis with an angular speed \omega, the distance from the axis is r. We are given:

\omega = 10 [rad/s]\\r=0.5 [m]\\m=13[Kg]

and also the formula which states that the kinetic rotational energy of a body is:

K =\frac{1}{2}I\omega^2.

Now we use the kinetic energy formula

K =\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where v is the tangential velocity of the particle. Tangential velocity is related to angular velocity by:

v=\omega r

After replacing in the previous equation we get:

K =\frac{1}{2}m(\omega r)^2

now we have the following:

K =\frac{1}{2}m(\omega r)^2 =\frac{1}{2}Iw^2

therefore:

mr^2=I

then the moment of inertia will be:

I = 13*(0.5)^2=3.25 [Kg*m^2]

Which of the following is quantitative data? a. Color c. Shape b. Odor d. Volume
Papessa [141]
Hello there! Quantitive data has to do with measurements that can be shown with numbers. Examples of this are things like your height and the length of your arms. With that alone, A and B are eliminated, because those answer choices make no sense. They can't be expressed by numbers and you can't measure colors or odors mathematically. Volume is a way to measure something that CAN be written down by numbers. D is the only answer choice that fits the definition of quantitive data. The answer is D: volume.
