Answer:
D
Explanation:
The decrease in potential energy is equal to the increase in kinetic energy.
mgh
250 x 9.8 x 30
=73, 500
Answer:
5.01 J
Explanation:
Info given:
mass (m) = 0.0780kg
height (h) = 5.36m
velocity (v) = 4.84 m/s
gravity (g) = 9.81m/s^2
1. First, solve for Kinetic energy (KE)
KE = 1/2mv^2
1/2(0.0780kg)(4.84m/s)^2 = 0.91 J
so KE = 0.91 J
2. Next, solve for Potential energy (PE)
PE = mgh
(0.0780kg)(9.81m/s^2)(5.36m) = 4.10 J
so PE = 4.10 J
3. Mechanical Energy , E = KE + PE
Plug in values for KE and PE
KE + PE = 0.91J + 4.10 J = 5.01 J
Complete question:
A block of solid lead sits on a flat, level surface. Lead has a density of 1.13 x 104 kg/m3. The mass of the block is 20.0 kg. The amount of surface area of the block in contact with the surface is 2.03*10^-2*m2, What is the average pressure (in Pa) exerted on the surface by the block? Pa
Answer:
The average pressure exerted on the surface by the block is 9655.17 Pa
Explanation:
Given;
density of the lead, ρ = 1.13 x 10⁴ kg/m³
mass of the lead block, m = 20 kg
surface area of the area of the block, A = 2.03 x 10⁻² m²
Determine the force exerted on the surface by the block due to its weight;
F = mg
F = 20 x 9.8
F = 196 N
Determine the pressure exerted on the surface by the block
P = F / A
where;
P is the pressure
P = 196 / (2.03 x 10⁻²)
P = 9655.17 N/m²
P = 9655.17 Pa
Therefore, the average pressure exerted on the surface by the block is 9655.17 Pa
Answer: 117.6N
Explanation:
By the second Newton's law, we know that:
F = m*a
F = force
m = mass
a = acceleration
We know that in the surface of the Earth, the gravitational acceleration is g = 9.8m/s^2.
Then we just can input that acceleration in the above equation, and also replace m by 12kg, and find that the force due the gravity is:
F = 12kg*9.8m/s^2 = 117.6N
Answer:
The increase in thermal energy results in an increase in pressure.
Explanation:
- The increase in entropy is directly related to the increase in temperature. So the thermal energy in heat engine increases the temperature of that surrounding.
- Higher temperature means the kinetic energy of particles is also higher, their vibration is increasing. So it increases the pressure (ideal gas law).
- In this way the increment in the thermal energy in heat engine moves piston by increasing the pressure.
