Calculate the potential energy of a 4 kg cat crouched 3 meters off the ground

Physics
1 answer:
NeTakaya3 years ago
5 0

Gravitational potential energy = (mass) x (gravity) x (height)


GPE = (4 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) x (3 m)


GPE = (4 x 9.8 x 3) kg-m²/s²


GPE = 117.6 Joules

A 0.2 kg hockey puck moving at 80 m/s is caught by a 40 kg goalie at rest. With what speed does the goalie slide on the slide?
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

V = 0.39 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of hockey puck, m = 0.2 kg

Mass of goalie = 40 kg

Speed of hockey puck, v = 80 m/s

We need to find the speed with which the goalie slide on the slide. Let V be the speed. Using the conservation of momentum as follows :

mv=(M+m)V\\\\V=\dfrac{mv}{M+m}\\\\V=\dfrac{0.2\times 80}{0.2+40}\\\\V=0.39\ m/s

So, the required speed is 0.39 m/s.

When sugar is poured from the box into the sugar bowl, the rubbing of sugar grains creates a static electric charge that repels
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

2.6×10⁻³ N

Explanation:

From coulomb's law,

F = kq'q/r²................ Equation 1

Where F = Repulsive force, q' = charge on the first sugar grain, q = charge on the second sugar grain, r = distance of separation between the sugar grain, k = proportionality constant.

From the question,

since q' = q

Then,

F = kq²/r²..................... Equation 2

Given: q = 1.79×10⁻¹¹ C, r = 3.45×10⁻⁵ m,

Constant: k = 9×10⁹ Nm²/kg².

Substitute into equation 2

F = 9×10⁹(1.79×10⁻¹¹)²/(3.45×10⁻⁵ )²

F = 9×10⁹(3.2041×10⁻²²)/(11.9025×10⁻¹⁰)

F = (28.8369×10⁻¹³)/(11.9025×10⁻¹⁰)

F = 2.6×10⁻³ N.

Air pressure is created by the weight of the atmosphere pushing on Earth’s surface.

Denser air is heavier than less dense air.

Air is less dense at higher altitudes.
