Potential energy calculation - MxGxH. Gravity equals 10. How much

Physics
1 answer:
Elena L [17]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Ep = 0.6095 [J]

Explanation:

As defined in the problem statement, potential energy is defined as the product of mass by gravity by height. But first we must convert all the values given to measures of the international system (SI)

g = gravity = 10 [m/s^2]

h = elevation = 40 [ft] = 12.19 [m]

m = mass = 5 [g] = 0.005 [kg]

Ep = potential energy [J]

Ep = 0.005*10*12.19 = 0.6095 [J]

An 80 N force causes a spring to compress 0.15 m. What is the spring constant? What is the potential energy of the spring?
Anni [7]
Force = -kx
80N=0.15m * -k
K=-80/0.15=533.333. Spring constant
Energy=1/2kx^2
1/2*(-80/0.15)*80^2=Energy

A hockey puck moving at 0.4600 m/s collides with another puck that was at rest. The pucks have equal mass. The first puck is def
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

Speed =0.283m/ s

Direction = 47.86°

Explanation:

Since it is a two dimensional momentum question with pucks having the same mass, we derive the momentum in xy plane

MU1 =MU2cos38 + MV2cos y ...x plane

0 = MU2sin38 - MV2sin y .....y plane

Where M= mass of puck, U1 = initial velocity of puck 1=0.46, U2 = final velocity of puck 1 =0.34, V2 = final velocity of puck 2, y= angular direction of puck2

Substitute into equation above

.46 = .34cos38 + V2cos y ...equ1

.34sin38 = V2sin y...equ2

.19=V2cos Y...x

.21=V2sin Y ...y

From x

V2 =0.19/cost

Sub V2 into y

0.21 = 0.19(Sin y/cos y)

1.1052 = tan y

y = 47.86°

Sub Y in to x plane equ

.19 = V2 cos 47.86°

V2=0.283m/s
