A small sphere of mass m is launched horizontally over a body of water from a height h above the water and with a launch speed v

0. Determine expressions for the following in terms of m, v0, h, and g. Air resistance is negligibly small.
(a) W is the amount work done by the force of gravity on the projectile during its flight.

W =
−mgh


For a conservative force, how does the work done by the force compare to the change in potential energy associated with the force?

Answer:

a)   W = m g h , b)     W / U = 1

Explanation:

a) work is defined by

        W = F. dy

in this case the force of gravity goes down and the displacement of the particle is down, so the two are parallel and the scalar product is reduced to the algebraic product

        W = F y

strength is the weight of the body

         F = m g

        W = m g h

where h is the distance the body descends

b) the only force acting on the body is the weight of the work and we calculated them in part a, the potential energy is

     U = m g h

to compare the two magnitudes of let's find their relationship

    W / U = mgh / mgh

    W / U = 1

Why is it so good for scientists to be skeptical
IceJOKER [234]
Its good for a scientist to be skeptical because they dont willingly accept new ideas without thoroughly going over the research themselves and attempting to disprove a theory. skeptical scientists often reveal new information through doing their own examinations of a concept, which is why they are valuable scientists

A +1.0 nC charge is at x = 0 cm, a -1.0 nC charge is at x = 1.0 cm and a 4.0 nC at x= 2 cm. What is the electric potential energ
lesantik [10]

Answer:

- 2.7 x 10^-6 J

Explanation:

q1 = 1 nC  at x = 0 cm

q2 = - 1 nC at x = 1 cm

q3 = 4 nC at x = 2 cm

The formula for the potential energy between the two charges is given by

U=\frac{Kq_{1}q_{2}}{r}

where r be the distance between the two charges

By use of superposition principle, the total energy of the system is given by

U = U_{1,2}+U_{2,3}+U_{3,1}

U=\frac{Kq_{1}q_{2}}{0.01}+\frac{Kq_{2}q_{3}}{0.01}+\frac{Kq_{3}q_{1}}{0.02}

U=-\frac{9\times10^{9}\times 1\times10^{-9}\times 1\times10^{-9}}}{0.01}-\frac{9\times10^{9}\times 1\times10^{-9}\times 4\times10^{-9}}}{0.01}+-\frac{9\times10^{9}\times 1\times10^{-9}\times 4\times10^{-9}}}{0.02}

U = - 2.7 x 10^-6 J

A spinning ice skater will speed up if he brings his arms close to his body. Which of the following statements explains this phe
xxMikexx [17]
A. Angular momentum is always conserved would be the correct answer.

This is because like linear momentum (mvmv), angular momentum (r×mvr×mv) is a conserved quantity, where rr is the vector from the center of rotation. For a skater holding a static pose, for each particle making up her body, the contribution in magnitude to the total angular momentum is given by mirivimirivi. Thus bringing in her arms reduces riri for those particles. In order to conserve angular momentum, there is then an increase in the angular velocity.

hope this helps!

A wheel free to rotate about its axis that is not frictionless is initially at rest. A constant external torque of +46 N·m is ap
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let Torque due to friction be

F  

Net torque

= 46 - F

Angular impulse = change in angular momentum

=(  46 - F ) x 17  = I X 580

When external torque is removed , only friction creates torque reducing its speed to zero in 120 s so

Angular impulse = change in angular momentum

F  x 120 = I X 580

(  46 - F ) x 17 = F  x 120

137 F = 46 x 17

F = 5.7 Nm

b )

Putting this value in first equation

5.7 x 120 = I x 580

I = 1.18 kg m²
