An object's gravitational potential energy is

(mass) x (gravity) x (height above ground) .

I don't see the object's speed anywhere in that formula, do you ?

An object's speed has no effect whatsoever on its potential energy ... only if it changes the object's height above ground.

A uniform 1.6-kg rod that is 0.89 m long is suspended at rest from the ceiling by two springs, one at each end. Both springs han

artcher [175]

Answer:

8.27°

Explanation:

To angle difference will be determined by the difference in the displacement of the springs, produced by the weight of the center of mass of the rod.

$d=y_1-y_2=\frac{F_1}{k_1}-\frac{F_2}{k_2}=\frac{0.5mg}{31N/m}-\frac{0.5mg}{63N/m}\\\\d=0.5(1.6kg)(9.8m/s^2)[\frac{1}{31N/m}-\frac{1}{63N/m}]=0.128m$

by a simple trigonometric relation you obtain that the angle:

$sin\theta=\frac{d}{l}=\frac{0.128m}{0.89m}=0.144\\\\\theta=sin^{-1}(0.144)=8.27\°$

hence, the angle between the rod and the horizontal is 8.27°
