Answer:

P.E = 13230 J

Explanation:

Given,

The mass of the rock, m = 45 Kg

The rock is sitting at a height from the ground, h = 30 m

The acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

The potential energy of the body is given by the formula,

P.E = mgh joules

Substituting the given values in the above equation

P.E = 45 x 9.8 x 30

= 13230 J

Hence, the potential energy of the rock is P.E = 13230 J

Serga [27]

Answer:

$q = 6.48 \times 10^{-14} C$

Explanation:

Deflection in the drop is due to electric field force

so we will have

$F = qE$

acceleration of the drop is given as

$a = \frac{qE}{m}$

$a = \frac{q(7.75 \times 10^4)}{1.00 \times 10^{-11}}$

$a = 7.75 \times 10^{15} q$

now we know that time to cross the plates is given as

$t = \frac{D}{v}$

$t = \frac{0.02}{18}$

$t = 1.11 \times 10^{-3} s$

now the deflection is given as

$d = \frac{1}{2}at^2$

$0.310 \times 10^{-3} = \frac{1}{2}(7.75 \times 10^{15} q)(1.11 \times 10^{-3})^2$

$0.310 \times 10^{-3} = 4.78 \times 10^9 q$

$q = 6.48 \times 10^{-14} C$
