Calculate the gravitational potential energy of the interacting pair of the Earth and a 11 kg block sitting on the surface of th

e Earth. You would need to supply the absolute value of this result to move the block to a location very far from the Earth (actually, you would need to use even more energy than this due to the gravitational potential energy associated with the Sun-block interacting pair).

Answer:

Gravitational potential energy (GPE) = 107.8J

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy (GPE) = mgh

Where mass(m) = 11kg

Acceleration due to gravity(g) = 9.8m²/s

height = assumed to be 1m

Force(F) = mg

Force(F) = 11×9.8 = 107.8N

Gravitational potential energy (GPE) = 107.8×1

= 107.8J

Talja [164]
Boyles law

Pressure and volume are inversely proportional as the new variable changes from the known.

Double the pressure equals 1/2 of original volume, assuming temperature remains the same.

So 40.0 mL is the new volume as it is compressed.

A block of mass m is pushed a horizontal distance D from position A to position B, along a horizontal plane with friction coeffi
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

The total work done by friction is -2 · μ · m · g · D

Explanation:

Hi there!

The work done by a force is calculated as follows:

W = F · d · cos θ

Where:

W = work.

F = force that does the work.

d = displacement.

θ = angle between the displacement and the force.

If the force is horizontal, as in this case, cos θ = 1

The friction force is calculated as follows:

Ffr = μ · m · g

Where:

μ = friction coefficient.

m = mass of the object.

g = acceleration due to gravity.

Then, in this case, the work done by friction when pushing the block from A to B will be:

W AB = -Ffr · D

W AB = - μ · m · g · D

Notice that the friction force is negative because it is opposite to the pushing force P.

When the block is pushed from B to A, the work done by friction will be:

W BA = Ffr · (-D)

W BA = -μ · m · g · D

Now, the displacement is negative and the friction force is positive (in the opposite direction to -P).

The total work done by friction will be:

W AB + W BA = - μ · m · g · D  - μ · m · g · D  = -2 μ · m · g · D

Scrat [10]

Answer:

Part 1 E = 2.42 * 10^{21}  N/C

Part 2 E = 1.3 * 10^{13}  N/C

Part 3 E = 0

Explanation:

Given

Number of protons = 92

Radius of nucleus r_n = 7.4 * 10^{-15} m

Distance of the electrons r_1 = 1.0 * 10^ {-10} m

Part 1

Electric field produced by  just outside its surface

E  = \frac{q}{4\pi*E_0* r_n^2 } \\E  = \frac{9 * 10^ 9 * 92 * 1.6 * 10^{-19}}{(7.4* 10^{-15})^2} \\E = 2.42 * 10^{21}  N/C

Part 2

Electric field produced by  just outside its surface

E  = \frac{q}{4\pi*E_0* r_n^2 } \\E  = \frac{9 * 10^ 9 * 92 * 1.6 * 10^{-19}}{(1* 10^{-15})^2} \\E = 1.3 * 10^{13}  N/C

Part 3

The net electric field inside a uniform shell of negative charge is zero because the electric flux lines cancel out each other

hence, the solution is

Part 1 E = 2.42 * 10^{21}  N/C

Part 2 E = 1.3 * 10^{13}  N/C

Part 3 E = 0
