Determine the gravitational potential energy, in kJ, of 3 m3 of liquid water at an elevation of 40 m above the surface of Earth.

The acceleration of gravity is constant at 9.7 m/s2 and the density of the water is uniform at 1000 kg/m3. Determine the change in gravitational potential energy if the elevation decreases by 10 m.

Explanation:

We will calculate the gravitational potential energy as follows.

                 P.E_{1} = mgz_{1}

       P.E_{1} = (\rho V)gz_{1}    

                    = 1000 kg/m^{3} \times 3 m^{3} \times 9.7 \times 40 m

                    = 1164000 J

or,                = 1164 kJ         (as 1 kJ = 1000 J)

Now, we will calculate the change in potential energy as follows.

             \Delta P.E = mg(z_{2} - z_{1})

                         = \rho \times V \times g (z_{2} - z_{1})

                         = 1000 \times 3 \times 9.7 (10 - 40)m

                         = -873000 J

or,                      = -873 kJ

Thus, we can conclude that change in  gravitational potential energy is -873 kJ.

20 points and brainliest‼️‼️‼️‼️
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

0 N

Explanation:

Applying,

F = qvBsin∅................. Equation 1

Where F = Force on the charge, q = charge, v = Velocity, B = magnetic charge, ∅ = angle between the velocity and the magnetic field.

From the question,

Given: q = 4.88×10⁻⁶ C, v = 265 m/s, B = 0.0579 T, ∅ = 0°

Substitute these values into equation 1

F = ( 4.88×10⁻⁶)(265)(0.0579)(sin0)

Since sin0° = 0,

Therefore,

F = 0 N

katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

4462.0927 W

Explanation:

\epsilon = Emissivity of the panel = 1

\sigma = Stefan-Boltzmann constant = 5.67\times 10^{-8}\ W/m^2K^4

T = Temperature = (273.15+6)

Area of the panel is given by

A=2\times 1.8\times 3.6\\\Rightarrow A=12.96\ m^2

The power radiated is given by

P=\epsilon \sigma AT^4\\\Rightarrow P=1\times 5.67\times 10^{-8}\times 12.96\times (273.15+6)^4\\\Rightarrow P=4462.0927\ W

The power radiated from each panel is 4462.0927 W
