Answer:

GPE=3.3 J  (Joules)

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is the energy an object has due to its position above Earth,  it's given by the equation GPE = mgh, where

<em>m: mass of the object.</em>

<em>g: acceleration due to gravity.</em>

<em>h: height.</em>

We have the weight of the object, this is P=15N <em>(newtons) </em>and P=mg then:

GPE=Ph

GPE=(15N)(0.22m)

GPE=3.3 Nm

GPE=3.3 J

A redecor travelling of 94 m/s s lows at a anstant
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

638 m.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial velocity (u) = 94 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 22 m/s

Time (t) = 11 s

Distance (s) =?

We can obtain the distance travelled by using the following formula:

s = (u + v) t /2

s = (94 + 22) × 11 /2

s = 116 × 11 /2

s = 1276 /2

s = 638 m

Thus, the distance travelled is 638 m.

A spring with spring constant of 26 N/m is stretched 0.22 m from its equilibrium position. How much work must be done to stretch
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

1.503 J

Explanation:

Work done in stretching a spring = 1/2ke²

W = 1/2ke²........................... Equation 1

Where W = work done, k = spring constant, e = extension.

Given: k = 26 N/m, e = (0.22+0.12), = 0.34 m.

Substitute into equation 1

W = 1/2(26)(0.34²)

W = 13(0.1156)

W = 1.503 J.

Hence the work done to stretch it an additional 0.12 m = 1.503 J
