Why does 30 kg mass at the top of a hill have more potential energy?

Physics

iVinArrow [24]3 years ago
6 0
So when it comes to Gravitational Potential Energy the higher an object of mass is the more energy it has as the equation for EPG is = MGH so the M is Mass of the object , the G is the gravitational constant which on earth is roughly 9.8 m/s and the H is the height of the object. So the greater the H value is the more energy you'll have. An example would be using your 30kg mass say at a height of 10 meters would have the EPG of 2940 Joules of energy since EPG= MGH so EPG= (30)(9.8)(10) . Now if the object was at a height of 20 meters the EPG would be greater as EPG=(30)(9.8)(20) which would be 5880 joules of energy

Answer is C. Both technicians A and B.

Refer below.

Explanation:

Two technicians are discussing the testing of a catalytic converter. Technician A says that a vacuum gauge can be used and observed to see if the vacuum drops with the engine at 2500 RPM for 30 seconds. Technician B says that a pressure gauge can be used to check for backpressure. The following technician is correct:

Explain how we use a spectrometer to help us determine what stars and planets are made of?
BaLLatris [955]
We use a spectrometer to help us determine what stars and planets are made of by passing a light through various chemical elements, different spectral patterns are created. By matching those patterns up to patterns generated in a laboratory environment we can tell what the composition of a distant star or planet is.

If a bale of hay behind the target exerts a constant friction force, how much farther will your arrow burry itself into the hay
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

The arrow will bury itself farther by 3S₁

Explanation:

<u />

lets assume; the Arrow shot by me has a speed twice the speed of the arrow fired by the younger shooter

Given that ; acceleration is constant , Frictional force is constant

                    A₂ =   A₁

Vf²₂ - Vi²₂ / 2s₂  = Vf₁² - Vi₁² / 2s₁ ---- ( 1 )

final velocities = 0

Initial velocities : Vi₂ = 2(Vi₁ )

Back to equation 1

0 - (2Vi₁ )² / 2s₂ =  0 - Vi₁² / 2s₁

hence :

s₂ = 4s₁

hence the Arrow shot by me will burry itself farther by :

s₂ - s₁ = 3s₁

<em>Note :  S1 = distance travelled by the arrow shot by the younger shooter</em>
