Answer: 605 joules

Explanation:

Potential energy is the energy possessed by a body at rest.

Potential energy = Mass m x Acceleration due to gravity g x height h

In this case,

Mass of crate = 12.6 kg

Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s^2

Height above factory floor = 4.9 metres

P. E = mgh

= 12.6kg x 9.8m/s^2 x 4.9m

= 605.052 = ( 605 joules of energy approximately)

Thus, the potential energy of the crate is 605 joules

What is the relationship between electric fields and magnetic fields
Zanzabum
Relation between Electric and magnetic fields. I've read that both the electric and magnetic field vectors are perpendicular to each other in an electromagnetic wave. Passing steady current through a straight conductor shows some magnetic flux (because most of the energy is wasted into outer space as magnetic lines).

What does the slope of a Position vs. Time graph represent?
attashe74 [19]

Your question asks what the slope of a Position vs. Time graph represents.

Your answer would be Velocity.

The slope of a Position vs. Time graph would represent the velocity of the object.

If the slope is positive, then the object has a positive velocity ,in which it is going forward.

If the slope is negative, then the object has a negative velocity, which means that it's going the opposite direction, or backwards.

If the slope is at a "horizontal" position, this means that the object is stopped or isn't moving at all.

A 7000-kg plane is launched from an aircraft carrier in 2.0 seconds
ExtremeBDS [4]

The acceleration and velocity of the plane is 78.57 m/s² and 157.14 m/s respectively

To calculate the acceleration of the plane, we use the formula below.

<h3>Formula:</h3>
  • a = F/m..................... Equation 1

Where:

  • a = Acceleration of the plane
  • F = Force applied to the plane
  • m = mass of the plane.

From the question,

Given:

  • F = 550000 N
  • m = 7000 kg

Substitute these values into equation 1

  • a = 550000/7000
  • a = 78.57 m/s²

To calculate the velocity, we use the formula below.

  • v = u+at............. Equation 2

Where:

  • v = Final velocity
  • u = initial velocity
  • a = acceleration
  • t = time.

From the question,

Given:

  • u = 0 m/s
  • a = 78.57 m/s
  • t = 2.0 seconds

Substitute these values into equation 2

  • v = 0+2(78.57)
  • v = 157.14 m/s

Hence, The acceleration and velocity of the plane is 78.57 m/s² and 157.14 m/s respectively.
