Electrical power is transmitted from power plants to consumers–sometimes over very long distances– through conducting power line

s that are either underground or suspended overhead on poles. in lab and tutorial, we generally treat wires as having essentially 0 resistance. however, over a sufficiently long distance, the resistance of a conducting wire becomes significant. why is this?

Tyson throws a shot put ball weighing 7.26 kg. At a height of 2.1 m above the ground, the mechanical energy of the ball is 172.1
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

2.5 m/s

Explanation:

Mechanical energy is the sum of the potential and kinetic energy.

E = PE + KE

E = mgh + ½mv²

172.1 J = (7.26 kg) (9.8 m/s²) (2.1 m) + ½ (7.26 kg) v²

v = 2.5 m/s

Calculate the gravitational potential energy is a bicycle of mass 20kg and its rider of mass 50kg cycle to the top of a hill 120
Travka [436]

Explanation:

Gravitational Potential Energy can be calculated with the following formula:

mgh

Where m is mass, g is Gravitational Field Strength, and h is height. GFS on Earth is always 9.81, the combined mass of the cyclist and the bicycle is 70, and the height is 120. Multiplying these values together, we get:

82,404J.
