Ignoring air resistance, the Kinetic energy before hitting the ground will be equal to the potential energy of the Piton at the top of the rock.  
So we have 1/2 MV^2 = MGH 
V^2 = 2GH 
V = âš2GH 
V = âš( 2 * 9.8 * 325)  
V = âš 6370
 V = 79.81 m/s

olga55 [171]
The solid, liquid and gas phases of water would have the same structure of the molecules since they are same substance. The only difference would be the distances of the molecules in the container. For a ice, the molecules are close to each other where the molecules vibrate only in place. For liquid, the molecules are freely moving and are at some distance with each other but not that far away with each other. Steam, on the other hand, would have molecules that are very far from each other and are freely moving in the whole container. As the container is heated, the size of the molecules would not change. It is only the volume that has changed. Also, the mass is the same since there is no outflow of the substances.

A negative charge, q1, of 6 µC is 0. 002 m north of a positive charge, q2, of 3 µC. What is the magnitude and direction of the e
prohojiy [21]

Force on the particle is defined as the application of the force field of one particle on another particle. The magnitude and direction of the electrical force will be 4.05×10⁴N towards the north.

<h3>What is electrical force?</h3>

Force on the particle is defined as the application of the force field of one particle on another particle. It is a type of virtual force.

The given data in the problem is

q₁ is the negative charge = 6 µC=6×10⁻⁶ C

q₂ is the positive charge = 3 µC=3×10⁻⁶ C

r is the distance between the charges=0.002 m

F_E is the electric force =?

The value of electric force will be;

\rm F_E= \frac{Kq_1q_2}{r^2} \\\\ F_E= \frac{9\times 10^9\times 6\times 10^{-6}\times3\times10^{-6}}{(0.002)^2}\\\\ \rm F_E=4.05\times10^4\;N

Hence the magnitude and direction of the electrical force will be 4.05×10⁴N towards the north.

A 75 kg bungee jumper jumps off with zero initial speed from a high cliff with a bungee cord tied to her ankle. At some time dur
stich3 [128]

Answer:

The elastic potential energy PE=143.47kJ

Explanation:

This problem bothers on the potential energy stored in a material.

Given data

Mass of the bungee jumper

m= 75kg

Height of jump down the cliff h=195m

We know that the elastic potential energy stored is same as the potential energy of the bungee jumper

PE= 1/2kx²= mgh

Assuming g is 9.81m/s²

PE= 75*9.81*195

PE= 143471.25J

PE=143.47kJ

What is potential energy?

Potential energy is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of it position.

Which statement describes nuclear binding energy?
Tamiku [17]

The answer for Plato users is C. It is the energy that is required to overcome mass defect.

From Plato "Nuclear binding energy is the energy that is required to overcome the energy that is used to keep the nucleus together, the mass defect."
