A storm surge which is when the winds of the hurricane pull water levels up and cause floods inland
Given parameters:
Mass of the car = 1000kg
Unknown:
Height = ?
To find the heights for the different amount potential energy given, we need to understand what potential energy is.
Potential energy is the energy at rest due to the position of a body.
It is mathematically expressed as:
P.E = mgh
m is the mass
g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²
h is the height of the car
Now the unknown is h, height and we make it the subject of the expression to make for easy calculation.
h =
<u>For 2.0 x 10³ J;</u>
h = = 0.204m
<u>For 2.0 x 10⁵ J;</u>
h = = 20.4m
<u>For 1.0kJ = 1 x 10³J; </u>
h = = 0.102m
Answer:
If the distance is doubled, the force of gravity between the two bodies is one-fourth as strong as before
Explanation:
The force of gravity between two bodies depends on the mass and distance. But we will focus on distance since that's what the question asks
Therefore, the force of gravity decreases as distance between the bodies increases.
Answer:
Centripetal acceleration,
Explanation:
Centripetal acceleration:
Centripetal acceleration is the idea that any object moving in a circle, in something called circular motion, will have an acceleration vector pointed towards the center of that circle.
Centripetal means towards the center.
Examples of centripetal acceleration (acceleration pointing towards the center of rotation) include such situations as cars moving on the cicular part of the road.
An acceleration is a change in velocity.
Formula for Centripetal acceleration:
Given here,
Velocity = 4.5 m/s
radius = 7.7 m
To Find :
Solution:
We have,
Substituting given value in it we get
Centripetal acceleration,
