1.47x10^5 Joules  
The gravitational potential energy will be the mass of the object, multiplied by the height upon which it can drop, multiplied by the local gravitational acceleration. And since it started at the top of a 60.0 meter hill, halfway will be at 30.0 meters. So  
500 kg * 30.0 m * 9.8 m/s^2 = 147000 kg*m^2/s^ = 147000 Joules.  
Using scientific notation and 3 significant figures gives 1.47x10^5 Joules.

Pavel [41]

Answer:

C. Up, equal to the can's weight

Explanation:

You are camping in the breathtaking mountains if Colorado. You spy an unopened diet soda can floating motionless below the surface of a lake. What is the direction and amount of force the water exerts on it?

A. Zero

B. Down, equal to the can's weight

C. Up, equal to the can's weight

D. Not enough information is given

from the principle of flotation which states that a

When a body displaces a weight of water equal to its own weight, it floats. : A floating object displaces a weight of fluid equal to its own weight. ... Archimedes' principle equates the buoyant force to the weight of the fluid displaced.

the upthrust (this is the upward vertical force exerted on an object in fluid)in the water equals the weight of the body in water it floats.

A satellite, orbiting the earth at the equator at an altitude of 400 km, has an antenna that can be modeled as a 1.76-m-long rod
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

The inducerd emf is 1.08 V

Solution:

As per the question:

Altitude of the satellite, H = 400 km

Length of the antenna, l = 1.76 m

Magnetic field, B = 8.0\times 10^{- 5}\ T

Now,

When a conducting rod moves in a uniform magnetic field linearly with velocity, v, then the potential difference due to its motion is given by:

e = - l(vec{v}\times \vec{B})

Here, velocity v is perpendicular to the rod

Thus

e = lvB           (1)

For the orbital velocity of the satellite at an altitude, H:

v = \sqrt{\frac{Gm_{E}}{R_{E}} + H}

where

G = Gravitational constant

m_{e} = 5.972\times 10^{24}\ kg = mass of earth

R_{E} = 6371\ km = radius of earth

v = \sqrt{\frac{6.67\times 10^{- 11}\times 5.972\times 10^{24}}{6371\times 1000 + 400\times 1000} = 7670.018\ m/s

Using this value value in eqn (1):

e = 1.76\times 7670.018\times 8.0\times 10^{- 5} = 1.08\ V
