Which one of the following bodies has only potential energy?

Physics

Potential energy is like energy contained. It is not energy displayed.

So option (a) clearly represents energy contained.

a. A cat sitting on the fence

If the cat jumps off the wall, the potential or contained energy is displayed as kinetic energy; which is energy in motion.

You and a friend each carry identical boxes from the first floor of a building to a room located on the second floor, farther do
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

Work done in both the cases will be same

Explanation:

As we know that the work done against gravity is given as

W = F_g .d

here we know that gravitational force is a conservative force and the work done against gravitational force is independent of the path

So here the work done by person to move the object between two different heights will be independent of the path they choose

So for the first person and second person will be same in both the cases because the height through which the boxes are transferred will be same in both the cases

Calculate the force of attraction between
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

So the force of attraction between the two objects is 3.3365*10^-6

Explanation:

m1=10kg

m2=50kg

d=10cm=0.1m

G=6.673*10^-11Nm^2kg^2

We have to find the force of attraction between them

F=Gm1m2/d^2

F=6.673*10^-11*10*50/0.1^2

F=3.3365*10^-8/0.01

F=3.3365*10^-6

Determine the minimum size of glass tubing that can be used to measure water level. If the capillary rise in the tube does not e
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

Explanation:

The formula to determine the size of a capillary tube is

h = 2•T•Cos θ / r•ρ•g

Where

h = height of liquid level

T = surface tension

r = radius of capillary tube

ρ = density of liquid

θ = angle of contact = 0°

g =acceleration due to gravity=9.81m/s²

The liquid is water then,

ρ = 1000 kg / m³

Given that,

T = 0.0735 N/m

h = 0.25mm = 0.25 × 10^-3m

Then,

r = 2•T•Cos θ / h•ρ•g

r = 2 × 0.0735 × Cos0 / 2.5 × 10^-3 × 1000 × 9.81

r = 5.99 × 10^-3m

Then, r ≈ 6mm

The radius of the capillary tube is 6mm

So, the minimum size is

Volume = πr²h

Volume = π × 6² × 0.25

V = 2.83 mm³

The minimum size of the capillary tube is 2.83mm³

A 27-g steel-jacketed bullet is fired with a velocity of 640 m/s toward a steel plate and ricochets along path CD with a velocit
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

F = - 3.56*10⁵ N

Explanation:

To attempt this question, we use the formula for the relationship between momentum and the amount of movement.

I = F t = Δp

Next, we try to find the time that the average speed in the contact is constant (v = 600m / s), so we say

v = d / t

t = d / v

Given that

m = 26 g = 26 10⁻³ kg

d = 50 mm = 50 10⁻³ m

t = d/v

t = 50 10⁻³ / 600

t = 8.33 10⁻⁵ s

F t = m v - m v₀

This is so, because the bullet bounces the speed sign after the crash is negative

F = m (v-vo) / t

F = 26*10⁻³ (-500 - 640) / 8.33*10⁻⁵

F = - 3.56*10⁵ N

The negative sign is as a result of the force exerted against the bullet

A geneticist looks through a microscope to determine the phenotype of a fruit fly. The microscope is set to an overall magnifica
grin007 [14]

Answer:

f_e = 1.51 cm

Explanation:

given.

magnification(m) = 400 x

focal length (f_0)= 0.6 cm

distance between eyepiece and lens (L)= 16 cm

Near point (N) = 25 cm

focal length of the eyepiece (f_e)= ?

using equation

m = -\dfrac{L-f_e}{f_o}.\dfrac{N}{f_e}

400 = \dfrac{16-f_e}{0.6}.\dfrac{25}{f_e}

9.6 = \dfrac{16-f_e}{f_e}

9.6f_e = 16-f_e

10.6 f_e = 16

f_e = 1.51 cm
