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.

an airplane is flying through a thundercloud at a height of 2000m (this is very dangerous thing to do because of updrafts, turbu
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer

In this question we have given,

Height of plane, h1=2000m

Height at which charge concentration is 40C, h2=3000m

Height at which charge concentration is -40C, h3=1000m

charge concentaration, q1=40C

charge concentaration, q2=-40C

let the charge concentrations at height h2 and h3 as point charges

Now we will first find the electric feild on plane due to positive charge q1=40

E1= k*q1/(h1-h2)..............(1)

Here k=8.98755*10^9N.m^2/C^2

q1=40C

put values of k, q1 , h1 and h2 in equation 1


[tex]E1=(8.98755*10^9)*(40)/(2000-3000)^2\\

E1=[tex]E= 359502+359502\\E=719004 V/mV/m[/tex]

similarly electric feild due to negative charge q2=-40

[tex]E2=(8.98755*10^9)*(-40)/(2000-1000)^2\\

E2=359502V/m

Total electric feild E at the aircraft is given as

E= E1+ E2\\...............(2)

Put values of  E1 and E2 in equation2

\\E=359502+359502\\E= 719004V/m\\

therefore s Total electric feild E at the aircraft is E= 719004V/m

What is a net force on an object that has a mass of 20.0 kg, an applied force of 100 n moving on a surface with a friction coeff
sergiy2304 [10]

The net force on the object as described is; 58.84N

Two forces acting on the object are;

  • The <em>applied force and the frictional force.</em>

In essence; the frictional force can be evaluated as;

  • Frictional force; = coefficient × Weight of object.

  • Frictional force = 0.21 × 20 × 9.8.

  • Frictional force = 41.16N

  • The Net force = Applied force - frictional force

  • Net force = 100 - 41.16N

Net Force = 58.84 N.
