Answer:

The answer would be 735J

Explanation:

PE=mgh

=(mass)(force of gravity)(height)

=(25kg)(9.8m/s^2)(3m)

=735J

Explanation:

given, mass =25 kg

height=3m

and acceleration deu to gravity =9.8m/s^2

now, we have,

pe =mgh

=25×9.8×3

=735j.....ans

Describe in terms of kinetic and potential energy what happens if an apple falls from a tree and comes to rest on the ground( wr
Lunna [17]

Answer:

An apple hanging at a branch has potential energy due its position. It can be written as PE= mgh where m is the mass of the apple h is the distance between the apple and the ground and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

as the apple falls from the tree it loses its potential energy and gains kinetic energy due to the movement of the apple. Its kinetic energy will be given by KE= 1/2mv²  where m is the mass of the apple and v is the speed with which the apple falls.

As the apple falls the height or the distance reduces and PE becomes reduces. But it gains Kinetic energy due to its speed.

But when the apple falls to the ground and comes to rest its kinetic energy is converted to potential energy.

thus the total energy remains the same. it changes from one form to the other but remains unaltered.

What is an elastic collision?
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

A collision in which both total momentum and total kinetic energy are conserved

Explanation:

In classical physics, we have two types of collisions:

- Elastic collision: elastic collision is a collision in which both the total momentum of the objects involved and the total kinetic energy of the objects involved are conserved

- Inelastic collision: in an inelastic collision, the total momentum of the objects involved is conserved, while the total kinetic energy is not. In this type of collisions, part of the total kinetic energy is converted into heat or other forms of energy due to the presence of frictional forces. When the objects stick together after the collision, the collisions is called 'perfectly inelastic collision'

One of the important waste products of photosynthesis is oxygen gas. Where does this oxygen gas come from?
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

End product of photosynthesis.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is a process that plants undergo in the manufacture of their food. This is done in the presence of sunlight which is trapped by their coloring pigment called chlorophyll and reactants such as Carbon dioxide and Water.

6CO2+6H2O= C6H12O6+ 6O2

The oxygen gas which is a waste product of photosynthesis is released into the atmosphere and used by animals in respiration.

Which example identifies a change in motion that produces acceleration?
kifflom [539]
Acceleration is the rate at which an object changes its velocity. It defines how much the velocity is changing. The acceleration can be negative and positive. Negative acceleration is when the object slows down, while positive while the object goes faster.
<span>A ball moving at a constant speed around a circular track produces acceleration. </span>
