g A 0.56-kg ball is thrown vertically upward with an initial speed of 17.0 m/s. What is the potential energy of the ball when it

has travelled one-half of the distance to its maximum height? (Use the launch point to be the zero reference point of measurements of the heights)

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of ball=0.56kg

Initial speed=17m/s

Let g=9.81m/s²

Potential energy when the ball travel half way=?

Using equation of free fall to know the maximum height the ball will reach

v²=u²-2gH.

Upward direction i.e against gravity

The the velocity at the maximum height is zero because the body will momentary stop before coming downward , therefore v=0

Therefore,

v²=u²-2gH

0²=17²-2×9.81×H

0=289-19.62H

Then, 19.62H=289

H=289/19.62.

H=14.73m

Then,

The half way is distance is ½×H=½×14.73=7.36m

Then the potential energy at this point is given as

P.E=mgh

P.E=0.56×9.81×7.36

P.E=40.43J

The potential energy halfway is 40.43J

When making maps of the large-scale universe, astronomers estimate distances to the vast majority of galaxies by using:
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

<em>The comoving distance and the proper distance scale</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

The comoving distance scale removes the effects of the expansion of the universe, which leaves us with a distance that does not change in time due to the expansion of space (since space is constantly expanding). The comoving distance and proper distance are defined to be equal at the present time; therefore, the ratio of proper distance to comoving distance now is 1. The scale factor is sometimes not equal to 1. The distance between masses in the universe may change due to other, local factors like the motion of a galaxy within a cluster.  Finally, we note that the expansion of the Universe results in the proper distance changing, but the comoving distance is unchanged by an expanding universe.

Answer:

3 Objects that carry instruments into the stratosphere to measure atmospheric conditions

Explanation:

Weather balloons are objects that carries instruments into the stratosphere to measure atmospheric conditions.

They are very important weather measuring device that helps meteorologists in their fore casts.

These balloons are specially designed for high altitudes. They carry very sensitive devices that are very useful in collecting information about temperature, precipitation, pressure e.t.c
