Answer:

The increase in the gravitational potential energy is 29.93 joules.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the box, m = 2.35 kg

It is lifted from the floor to a tabletop 1.30 m above the floor, h = 1.3 m

We need to find the increase the gravitational potential energy. Initial it will placed at ground i.e. its initial gravitational potential is equal to 0. The increase in the gravitational potential energy is given by :

U=mgh

U=2.35\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2\times 1.3\ m

U = 29.93 Joules

So, the increase in the gravitational potential energy is 29.93 joules. Hence, this is the required solution.

How you can change the state of matter of the substance in the container.
Deffense [45]

Answer:

Change in the shape size volume and state of a substance

When a solid is heated, it turns into a liquid. As a liquid, a substance has a fixed volume, but its shape changes to fill the shape of its container. For instance, a glass of water is the liquid state of water. ... Gas expands to fill the shape and volume of its container.

A projectile of mass 1.800 kg approaches a stationary target body at 4.800 m/s. The projectile is deflected through an angle of
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

P = 5.22 Kg.m/s

Explanation:

given,

mass of the projectile = 1.8 Kg

speed of the target = 4.8 m/s

angle of deflection = 60°

Speed after collision = 2.9 m/s

magnitude of momentum after collision = ?

initial momentum of the body = m x v

                                                  = 1.8 x 4.8 = 8.64 kg.m/s

final momentum after collision

momentum along x-direction

P_x = m v cos θ

P_x = 1.8 x 2.9 x  cos 60°

P_x = 2.61 kg.m/s

momentum along y-direction

P_y = m v sin θ

P_y = 1.8 x 2.9 x  sin 60°

P_y = 4.52 kg.m/s

net momentum of the body

P = \sqrt{P_x^2 + P_y^2}

P = \sqrt{4.52^2 + 2.61^2}

 P = 5.22 Kg.m/s

momentum magnitude after collision is equal to P = 5.22 Kg.m/s

A 6.00-μf parallel-plate capacitor has charges of 40.0 μc on its plates. how much potential energy is stored in this capacitor?
dedylja [7]

Thew energy stored in a capacitor of capacitance C and voltage between the plates V is

E=\frac{1}{2} CV^2=\frac{1}{2C} Q^2.

Substituting numerical value

E=\frac{1}{2*6*10^{-6}} (40*10^{-6})^2\\ E=133.33\; \mu J

Amazon rectangular bar of low carbon steel A-36 is exposed to an axial strees of 150 MPa. What is the original length of the bar
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

1.8m

Explanation:

Let the Elastics of the steel ASTM-36 E = 200000 MPa

The strain of the bar when subjected to 150 MPa is

\epsilon = \frac{\sigma}{E} = \frac{150}{200000} = 0.00075

Therefore, if the bar elongates by 1.35 mm, then the original length L would be:

\epsilon = \frac{\Delta L}{L}

L = \frac{\Delta L}{\epsilon} = \frac{1.35}{0.00075} = 1800 mm or 1.8m
