Explanation:
Work done by gravity is given by the formula,
W = ......... (1)
It is known that when levels are same then height of the liquid is as follows.
h = ......... (2)
Putting value of equation (2) in equation (1) the overall formula will be as follows.
W =
=
= 0.689 J
Thus, we can conclude that the work done by the gravitational force in equalizing the levels when the two vessels are connected is 0.689 J.
Answer:
t = 16.5s
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Acceleration = 3.1m/s²
Initial velocity = 0m/s
Final velocity = 51m/s
Unknown:
Time taken = ?
Solution:
To solve this problem we need to reiterate that acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time.
So;
Acceleration =
v is the final velocity
u is the initial velocity
t is the time taken
So;
3.1 =
3.1t = 51
t = 16.5s
Answer:
K/2
Explanation:
The law of conservation of mechanical energy states that the sum of the kinetic and potential energies is a constant at any point.
At maximum height, the glove has purely potential energy but at the bottom, it has purely kinetic energy.
The potential energy at the top = kinetic energy at the bottom. The potential energy is given by
At half height, this potential energy is
At this height, PE + KE = Constant = KE at bottom or PE at maximum height.
