A block of concrete has a mass of 48kg a crane lifts the block to a height of 12m above the ground calculate the gravitational p

Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

5760 J

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass of block = 48 kg

Height (h) = 12 m

Gravitational field strength (g) = 10 N/Kg

Gravitational potential energy (PE) =?

The gravitational potential energy stored by the block can simply be obtained as follow:

PE = mgh

PE = 48 × 10 × 12

PE = 5760 J

Therefore, the gravitational potential energy stored by the block is 5760 J

The refractive index n of transparent acrylic plastic (full name Poly(methyl methacrylate)) depends on the color (wavelength) of

Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

The angle between the blue beam and the red beam in the acrylic block is

$\theta _d =0.19 ^o$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The refractive index of the transparent acrylic plastic for blue light is $n_F = 1.497$

The wavelength of the blue light is $F = 486.1 nm = 486.1 *10^{-9} \ m$

The refractive index of the transparent acrylic plastic for red light is $n_C = 1.488$

The wavelength of the red light is $C = 656.3 nm = 656.3 *10^{-9} \ m$

The incidence angle is $i = 45^o$

Generally from Snell's law the angle of refraction of the blue light in the acrylic block is mathematically represented as

$r_F = sin ^{-1}[\frac{sin(i) * n_a }{n_F} ]$

Where $n_a$ is the refractive index of air which have a value of $n_a = 1$

$r_F = sin ^{-1}[\frac{sin(45) * 1 }{ 1.497} ]$

$r_F = 28.18^o$

Generally from Snell's law the angle of refraction of the red light in the acrylic block is mathematically represented as

$r_C = sin ^{-1}[\frac{sin(i) * n_a }{n_C} ]$

Where $n_a$ is the refractive index of air which have a value of $n_a = 1$

$r_C = sin ^{-1}[\frac{sin(45) * 1 }{ 1.488} ]$

$r_F = 28.37^o$

The angle between the blue beam and the red beam in the acrylic block

$\theta _d = r_C - r_F$

substituting values

$\theta _d = 28.37 - 28.18$

$\theta _d =0.19 ^o$

Astronomers suspect that a galaxy’s type can be affected both by the conditions in the protogalactic cloud from which it forms (

Katen [24]

Answer:

The items here are describing either a condition in a later interacton or a protogalactic cloud. The results matching with spiral and elliptical galaxy are:

For spiral galaxy are options 6,3,2 and 5.

and for elliptical galaxy are options 4 and 1.

Explanation:

Here it is given that astrnomers suspect that types of galaxy can be affected both by the conditions which occurs due to protogalactic cloud and then from it forms the initial conditions and then by the later interactions with the other galaxies.

so, both types of galaxies are matched with their respective items given:

A. Spiral galaxy:

2. A galaxy collision results tostripping of gas.

3. The protogalactic cloud rotates in a very slow motion.

5. The density of protogalactic cloud is very high.

6. when the protogalactic cloud shrinks cloud forms very rapidly.

B. Elliptical galaxy:

1. The protogalactic cloud has high angular momentum.

4. Most of the protogalactic gases settles down into a disk.

A 35kg cannonball sits at rest on a flat level surface. What is the normal force exerted on the cannon ball. Use -9.8 m/s2 for a

Tom [10]

Answer:

a) N = 343 [N]

Explanation:

We must remember Newton's third law, which tells us that the force acting on a body is equal to the normal reaction force of equal magnitude but acting in the opposite direction.

$N=m*g$

where:

m = mass = 35 [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

$N = 35*9.8\\N= 343 [N]$
