A 4-kg object falls vertically a distance of 5 m. its potential energy has changed by approximately how much?

Physics
1 answer:
Brums [2.3K]3 years ago
7 0
Given:
m = 4 kg, the mass of the object
h = 5 m, distance fallen

Neglect air resistance.

The PE (potential energy) is 
PE = mgh = (4 kg)*(9.8 m/s²)*(5 m) = 196 J

The PE is converted into KE (kinetic energy) after the fall. 
Therefore the PE decreased by 196 J ≈ 200 J

Answer: d. It has decreased by 200 J

Answer:

Tech A is right.

Explanation:

Its the ability of quartz crystal that if we apply a mechanical stress on them by an applied force then they can produce the electricity or voltage. This phenomenon of producing electricity by squeezing a crystal is termed as piezoelectricity or a piezoelectric effect.

The human ear canal is about 2.9 cm long and can be regarded as a tube open at one end and closed at the eardrum. What is the fu
solniwko [45]

The frequency of the human ear canal is 2.92 kHz.

Explanation:

As the ear canal is like a tube with open at one end, the wavelength of sound passing through this tube will propagate 4 times its length of the tube. So wavelength of the sound wave will be equal to four times the length of the tube. Then the frequency can be easily determined by finding the ratio of velocity of sound to wavelength. As the velocity of sound is given as 339 m/s, then the wavelength of the sound wave propagating through the ear canal is  

Wavelength=4*Length of the ear canal

As length of the ear canal is given as 2.9 cm, it should be converted into meter as follows:

wavelength = 4*2.9*10^{-2} =0.116

Then the frequency is determined as

f=c/λ=339/0.116=2922 Hz=2.92 kHz.

So, the frequency of the human ear canal is 2.92 kHz.

the roque requried to turn the crank on an ice cream maker is 4.50 N.m how much work does it take to turn the crank through 300
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

the work required to turn the crank at the given revolutions is 8,483.4 J

Explanation:

Given;

torque required to turn the crank, T = 4.50 N.m

number of revolutions, = 300 turns

The work required to turn the crank is given as;

W = 2πT

W = 2 x 3.142 x 4.5

W = 28.278 J

1 revolution = 28.278 J

300 revlotions = ?

= 300 x 28.278 J

= 8,483.4 J

Therefore, the work required to turn the crank at the given revolutions is 8,483.4 J
