Law of conservation of energy states that KE=PE, so

1/2*mv^2=mgh,

1/2*v^2=gh,

h=v^2/2g=20^2/(2*9.8)=20.41 m

Here as we know that there is no loss of energy

so we can say that maximum kinetic energy will become gravitational potential energy at its maximum height

So here we have

\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = mgh

here we have

v = 20 m/s

m = 8000 kg

now from above equation we have

\frac{1}{2}(8000)(20^2) = (8000)(9.8)h

h = \frac{200}{9.8)

h = 20.4 m

so maximum height is 20.4 m

Which of the following concepts best explains why a mass of low-density material in the mantle rises?Multiple Choice Strain Buoy
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

Bouyancy

Explanation:

Bouyancy occurs when the upthrust exerted on an object is equal to the weight of object displaced. It is mostly applicable to low density objects for example balloon. When balloon is displaced in water, it floats. This is due to the effect of the upthrust acting on the balloon which allows the balloon to float and which is opposite the weight.

Note that the weight acts downwards the object while the upthrust always acts opposite (upward)

A 1.0 kg copper rod rests on two horizontal rails 1.0 m apart and carries a current of 50 A from one rail to the other.
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer

given,

mass of copper rod = 1 kg

horizontal rails = 1 m

Current (I) = 50 A

coefficient of static friction = 0.6

magnetic force acting on a current carrying wire is

           F = B i L

Rod is not necessarily vertical

F_x =i L B_d

F_y= i L B_w

the normal reaction N = mg-F y

static friction       f = μ_s (mg-F y )

horizontal acceleration is zero

F_x-f = 0

iLBd = \mu_s(mg-F_y )

 B_w = B sinθ

 B_d = B cosθ

iLB cosθ= μ_s (mg- iLB sinθ)

B = \dfrac{\mu_smg}{i(cos\theta +\mu_s sin\theta)}

\theta =tan{-1}{\mu_s}

\theta =tan{-1}{0.6}

\theta = 31^0

B = \dfrac{0.6\times 1 \times 9.8}{50(cos31^0 +0.6 sin31^0)}

       B = 0.1 T
