The gravitational potential energy of an object is equal to its weight multiplied by its
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

Height above a surface

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is the energy which an object possesses due to its position above a surface.

It is also the amount of work a force has to do in order to bring an object from a particular position to a point of reference.

It is given mathematically as:

P. E. = m*g*h

where m = mass of the body

g = acceleration due to gravity

h = height above a surface

m*g represents the weight of the object.

Hence, Gravitational potential energy is the product of an object's weight and its height above a surface/reference point.

Lady_Fox [76]

An object of mass m attached to a spring of force constant k oscillates with simple harmonic motion. The system's potential energy when kinetic energy of (3/4) E is (1/8) k A².

<h3>What is mechanical energy?</h3>

Mechanical energy is the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy.

Total mechanical energy = P.E max = K.E max

Total mechanical energy = K.E +P.E

Given is the kinetic energy is (3/4)E.

E= (3/4)E + P.E

P.E =  (1/4) E

Maximum potential  energy =E = (1/2) k A²

Here. A is the maximum displacement and k is the spring constant.

The potential energy at kinetic energy of (3/4) E is

P.E = (1/4)E = (1/8) k A²

Therefore, the system's potential energy when kinetic energy of (3/4) E is (1/8) k A².

PHYSICS HELP PLEASE!! MUST SHOW MATH WORK!!
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

<u>Answer:</u>

1) Distance traveled by bird = 403 meter

2)Average speed = 1.66 km /hour

3) Zcceleration = 2 m/s^2

<u>Explanation:</u>

1)  Distance traveled = Speed * Time taken = 31 * 13 = 403 meter.

2)  Average speed = Total distance covered / Time taken for that distance to cover.

    Total distance covered = 2+0.5+2.5 = 5 km

    Time taken = 3 hours

     Average speed = 5/3 = 1.66 km /hour

3)    Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity, so acceleration a = change in velocity/time.

  Change in velocity = 14 - 6 = 8 m/s

   Time = 4 seconds

   So acceleration = 8 / 4 = 2 m/s^2
