Answer:
Explanation:
The formula for potential energy is:
where <em>m </em>is the mass, <em>g</em> is the gravitational acceleration, and <em>h</em> is the height.
The mass of the book is 0.4 kilograms. The gravitational acceleration on Earth is 9.8 m/s². The height of the book is 2 meters.
Substitute the values into the formula.
Multiply the first two numbers.
- 0.4 kg*9.8 m/s²= 3.92 kg*m/s²
- If we convert the units now, the problem will be much easier later on.
- 1 kg*m/s² is equal to 1 Newton. So, our answer of 3.92 kg*m/s² is equal to 3.92 N
Multiply.
- 3.92 N* 2 m=7.84 N*m
- 1 Newton meter is equal to 1 Joule (this is why we converted the units).
- Our answer is equal to<u> 7.84 Joules.</u>
Answer:
1.7323
Explanation:
To develop this problem, it is necessary to apply the concepts related to refractive indices and Snell's law.
From the data given we have to:
Where n means the index of refraction.
We need to calculate the index of refraction of the liquid, then applying Snell's law we have:
Replacing the values we have:
Therefore the refractive index for the liquid is 1.7323
Answer:
68cm
Explanation:
You can solve this problem by using the momentum conservation and energy conservation. By using the conservation of the momentum you get
m: mass of the bullet
M: mass of the pendulum
v1: velocity of the bullet = 410m/s
v2: velocity of the pendulum =0m/s
v: velocity of both bullet ad pendulum joint
By replacing you can find v:
this value of v is used as the velocity of the total kinetic energy of the block of pendulum and bullet. This energy equals the potential energy for the maximum height reached by the block:
g: 9.8/s^2
h: height
By doing h the subject of the equation and replacing you obtain:
hence, the heigth is 68cm
