The potential energy is most often referred to as the "energy at rest" and is dependent on the elevation of an object. This can be calculated through the equation,
E = mgh
where E is the potential energy, m is the mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height. In this item, we are not given with the mass of the cart so we assume it to be m. The force is therefore,
E = m(9.8 m/s²)(0.5 m) = 4.9m
Hence, the potential energy is equal to 4.9m.
How fast a car goes is known as its speed.
Speed = (distance covered) divided by (time to cover the distance)
It has nothing to do with the direction the car is going.
______________________________________
The car's velocity is its speed AND the direction it's going.
30 miles per hour . . . speed
40 miles per hour north . . . velocity
20 miles per hour south
20 miles per hour west . . . . . same speed, different velocity
-- 'Velocity' is NOT a big word that you use when you mean
'speed' but you want to sound smarter. It's a different thing.
-- If you don't know anything about the direction the car is going,
then you can't say anything about its velocity.
-- If the car is going around a curve, then its velocity is constantly
changing, even if its speed is constant.
<span>AS T1,T2,T3 are the tensions in the ropes,assuming that there are Three blocks of mass 3m, 2m, and m.T3 is the string between 3m and 2m,T2 is the string between 2m and m ,T1 is the string attached to m thus T1 pulls the whole set of blocks along, so it must be the largest. T2 pulls the last
two masses, but T3 only pulls the last mass, so T3 < T2 < T1.</span>
<span>C. Field lines begin near the magnet’s north pole and extend toward its south pole.
Hope this helps!</span>
