Answer:

98.1 J

Explanation:

GPE = mass × g × height

= 2 × 9.81 × 5

= 98.1 J

The gravitational force between two objects that are 2.1 times 10^-1 m apart is 3.2 times 10^-6 N. If the mass of one object is

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

Mass of the other object is 38.45 kg.

Explanation:

Given:

The gravitational force between two objects is, $F=3.2\times 10^{-6}$ N

Mass of one object is, $m_{1}=55\ kg$

Distance between the objects is, $r=2.1\times 10^{-1}\ m$

Gravitational constant is, $G =6.674\times 10^{-11}\ m^3 kg^{-1}s^{-2}$

Let the mass of the other object be $m_{2}\ kg$

Gravitational force is given as:

$F=\frac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2}$

Plug in the given values and solve for $m_2$ . This gives,

$3.2\times 10^{-6}=\frac{6.674\times 10^{-11}\times 55\times m_2}{(2.1\times 10^{-1})^2}\\3.2\times 10^{-6}=\frac{6.674\times 10^{-11}\times 55\times m_2}{0.0441}\\3.2\times 10^{-6}=8.3236\times 10^{-8}m_2\\m_2=\frac{3.2\times 10^{-6}}{8.3236\times 10^{-8}}= 38.45\ kg$

Therefore, the mass of the other object is 38.45 kg.

1) If a sound with the same amplitude and energy is propagated at a source, predict through which medium the sound will travel t

Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

denser media the speed is greater

Explanation:

The speed of sound is given by the relation

$v= \sqrt{\frac{B}{\rho} }$

where B is the volume modulus and ρ the density of the medium

When analyzing the previous expression, the amplitude of the sound depends on the energy carried by the wave.

Wave speed, is given by the relationship between two magnitudes, we analyze their values for different media. The volume modulus for gases has values of the order of 10⁵ Pa, for liquids of the order of 10⁹ Pa and for solids of 10¹⁰ to 10¹¹ Pa, while the density has values of the order of 10⁻¹ to 10⁰ kg / m³ for gases for liquids 10³ kg / m³ and for solids of the order of 10³ to 10⁴ kg / m³

let's find the order of magnitude of the speed of sound

Gases

v =√ 10⁵/10⁰ = 300 m / s

liquids

v =√ 10⁹/10³ = 1000 m / s

solid

v = √ 10¹¹/ 10⁴ = 3000 m / s

We can see that in denser media the speed is greater

A circuit with resistive elements of 220, 100, 57, and 43 produce what total resistance?

Korvikt [17]

The total resistance is 420 ohm.

A circuit with resistive elements of 220, 100, 57, and 43 produce what total resistance

R= 220+ 100+ 57+ 43

= 420 Ω

What is resistance and its types?

Resistance is a measure of the opposition to current flow in an electrical circuit also known as ohmic resistance or electrical resistance. Ohms are measured as resistance, symbolized by the Greek letter omega (Ω). The ratio of the applied voltage to the current through the material is then known as resistance.

What causes resistance?

An electric current flows when electrons move through a conductor, such as a metal wire. The moving electrons can collide with the ions in the metal. This makes it more difficult for the current to flow, and causes resistance.

It is safer for a car driver to be wearing a seat belt, compared with not wearing a seat belt, if the car is involved in a colli

Korolek [52]

Explanation: It is because when a car is moving both the car and the driver is in inertia of motion. When a car is involved in collision it comes to a sudden stop and the car comes into inertia of rest whereas the person still in inertia of motion moves forward and might result in major injuries. But this can be prevented by wearing a seatbelt

Hope it helps :)
