Natalie lifts a 15-kg rock from the ground onto a 1.5 meter high wall. what is the amount of potential energy she has given the

rock?
Physics

Zina [86]3 years ago
4 0
The amount of gravitational potential energy acquired by the rock is equal to:
\Delta U = mg \Delta h
where 
m is the mass of the rock
g is the gravitational acceleration
\Delta h is the increase in height of the rock

Substituting the data of the problem, we find
\Delta U=(15 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)(1.5 m)=220.7 J
So, Natalie gave 220.7 J of energy to the rock.

In a photoelectric experiment, you shine light onto an electrode and record a current of 25 μA. When you apply +500 mV to the el
kkurt [141]

Answer:

2.083 V.

Explanation:

Stopping potential is the potential that is required to stop the current to zero . This potential is applied externally to oppose the potential created by the photoelectric effect . It gives the measure the photoelectric potential being generated .

Here current drops to 25 μA to 19 μA by a potential of 500mV

Change in current

= 25 - 19 = 6 μA

Voltage requirement for unit reduction in current

= 500 / 6 μA

To reduce current 0f 25 μA

requirement of V = (500 / 6 )  x 25 =   2083.33 mV = 2.083 V.

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

a

The speed is   s =  5.857 m/s

b

The distance is  D = 22.4  \  m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The speed of the banana is  v =  16 \ m/s

   The distance from my  location is  d =  8.2  \ m  

     The time taken is  t = 1.4 \ s

The speed of the ice cream is

          s =  \frac{d}{t}

substituting values

        s =  \frac{8.4}{1.4}

        s =  5.857 m/s

The distance of separation between i and Valdimir is the same as the distance covered by the banana

   So  

          D =  v * t

substituting values

        D = 16 *  1.4

        D = 22.4  \  m

Assume light is traveling through an optical medium of n1 and is incident on a boundary with a different optical medium with n2.
Elza [17]
That n2 = 2*n1.  That is, the index of refraction is twice as big in medium 2 since v=c/n
