Potential energy = mgh
Energy, U = 400J
g = 10m/s^2
m = A kg
h = U ÷ mg
= 400÷10A
= 40÷A

mass is not given

A space probe is fired as a projectile from the Earth's surface with an initial speed of 2.05 104 m/s. What will its speed be wh
Elanso [62]

Answer:

The value is  v  =  2.3359 *10^{4} \ m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The  initial speed is u =  2.05 *10^{4} \  m/s

 Generally the total energy possessed by the space probe when on earth is mathematically represented as

             T__{E}} =  KE__{i}} +  KE__{e}}

Here  KE_i is the kinetic energy of the space probe due to its initial speed which is mathematically represented as

          KE_i =   \frac{1}{2}  *  m  *  u^2

=>       KE_i =   \frac{1}{2}  *  m  *  (2.05 *10^{4})^2

=>       KE_i =  2.101 *10^{8} \ \ m \ \ J

And  KE_e is the kinetic energy that the space probe requires to escape the Earth's gravitational pull , this is mathematically represented as

       KE_e =  \frac{1}{2}  *  m *  v_e^2

Here v_e is the escape velocity from earth which has a value v_e =  11.2 *10^{3} \  m/s

=>    KE_e =  \frac{1}{2}  *  m *  (11.3 *10^{3})^2

=>    KE_e =  6.272 *10^{7} \  \  m  \ \   J

Generally given that at a position that is very far from the earth that the is Zero, the kinetic energy at that position is mathematically represented as

        KE_p =  \frac{1}{2}  *  m *  v^2

Generally from the law energy conservation we have that

        T__{E}} =  KE_p

So

       2.101 *10^{8}  m  +  6.272 *10^{7}  m  =   \frac{1}{2}  *  m *  v^2

=>     5.4564 *10^{8} =   v^2

=>     v =  \sqrt{5.4564 *10^{8}}

=>     v  =  2.3359 *10^{4} \ m/s

a heavy jar sits on top of a 3.4 m shelf with a gravitational potential energy of 180 j. What is the mass of the jar?
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

5.2941176471 kg or 5294.1 grams

Explanation:

g.p.e= mgh

g.p.e/gh=m

180j/10×3.4= m

180/34= m

5.2941 kg= m

Which is an organic compound
DedPeter [7]

Organic compound, any of a large class of chemical compounds in which one or more atoms of carbon are covalently linked to atoms of other elements, most commonly hydrogen, oxygen, or nitrogen. The few carbon-containing compounds not classified as organic include carbides, carbonates, and cyanides.

An automatic dryer spins wet clothes at an angular speed of 5.2 rad/s. Starting from rest, the dryer reaches its operating speed
Dvinal [7]
<h2>Time taken by dryer to come up to speed is 1.625 seconds.</h2>

Explanation:

We have equation of motion v = u + at

     Initial velocity, u =  0 rad/s

     Final velocity, v = 5.2 rad/s    

     Time, t = ?

     Acceleration, a = 3.2 rad/s²

     Substituting

                      v = u + at  

                      5.2 = 0 + 3.2 x t

                      t = 1.625 s

Time taken by dryer to come up to speed is 1.625 seconds.
