Answer:

Change in potential energy is 700.7 J.

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the object is, $m=286$ kg

Height to which the object is raised above his head, $h=0.25$ m

Acceleration due to gravity is, $g=9.8$ m/s²

We know that for a mass $m$ raised to a height $h$ , the change in potential energy is given as:

$\Delta PE=mgh$ , where, $\Delta PE\rightarrow \textrm{Change in Potential Energy}$

Now, plug in the given values and solve.

$\Delta PE=286\times 9.8\times 0.25=700.7\textrm{ J}$

Therefore, the change in the potential energy is 700.7 J.

The Moon requires about 1 month (0.08 year) to orbit Earth. Its distance from us is about 400,000 km (0.0027 AU). Use Kepler’s t

Answer:

$\frac{M_e}{M_s} = 3.07 \times 10^{-6}$

Explanation:

As per Kepler's III law we know that time period of revolution of satellite or planet is given by the formula

$T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{r^3}{GM}}$

now for the time period of moon around the earth we can say

$T_1 = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{r_1^3}{GM_e}}$

here we know that

$T_1 = 0.08 year$

$r_1 = 0.0027 AU$

$M_e$ = mass of earth

Now if the same formula is used for revolution of Earth around the sun

$T_2 = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{r_2^3}{GM_s}}$

here we know that

$r_2 = 1 AU$

$T_2 = 1 year$

$M_s$ = mass of Sun

now we have

$\frac{T_2}{T_1} = \sqrt{\frac{r_2^3 M_e}{r_1^3 M_s}}$

$\frac{1}{0.08} = \sqrt{\frac{1 M_e}{(0.0027)^3M_s}}$

$12.5 = \sqrt{(5.08 \times 10^7)\frac{M_e}{M_s}}$

$\frac{M_e}{M_s} = 3.07 \times 10^{-6}$

During a single-replacement reaction, a more-active metal will replace a less-active metal in a compound. Which single-replaceme

son4ous [18]

Answer:

Mg will replace Ag in a compound

Explanation:

A single replacement reaction is driven by the position of ions on the activity series.

As a rule of thumb, the position of metal ions on the activity series determines their reactivity.

Metal ions that are above another are more reactive and they will displace those that are lower.

Generally, activity increases as we go up the group.

Mg ions are higher than Ag ions on the series so, Mg will displace Ag from a solution.

How many electrons would it take to equal the mass of a proton? Use two significant figures.

mezya [45]

<span>How many electrons would it take to equal the mass of a proton:
Here's one way of finding the value of it:
=> number of electrons is equivalent to 1 proton.
Let's have an example.
1.6726*10 -24g
_______________
1 proton
______________
9.109*10- ^28g
_______________
1 electron

Based on the given example above, the electrons is 1 839 per 1 proton.
It's about 1800 electrons/proton.</span>
