The potential energy of any object depends on its mass as well as its height off the ground.

Potential energy = mass x gravity x height.

We don't have enough information to compare the potential energies of these two objects because we don't know their masses.

Your neighbor Paul has rented a truck with a loading ramp. The ramp is tilted upward at 25°, and Paul is pulling a large crate u
Alisiya [41]

Explanation:

It is given that,

The ramp is tilted upwards at 25 degrees and Paul is pulling a large crate up the ramp with a rope that angles 10° above the ramp.

Total angle with respect to ramp is 35 degrees.

If Paul pulls with a force of 550 N.

The horizontal component of the force is given by :

F_x=F\ cos\theta

F_x=550\ cos(35)

F_x=450.53\ N

The vertical component of the force is given by :

F_y=F\ sin\theta

F_y=550\ sin(35)

F_y=315.46\ N

Hence, this is the required solution.

In an RC circuit, what fraction of the final energy is stored in an initially uncharged capacitor after it has been charging for
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

The  fraction fraction of the final energy is stored in an initially uncharged capacitor after it has been charging for 3.0 time constants is  

      k  = 0.903

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The time  constant  \tau  =  3

The potential across the capacitor can be mathematically represented as

     V  =  V_o  (1 -  e^{- \tau})

Where V_o is the voltage of the capacitor when it is fully charged

    So   at  \tau  =  3

     V  =  V_o  (1 -  e^{- 3})

     V  =  0.950213 V_o

   Generally energy stored in a capacitor is mathematically represented as

             E = \frac{1}{2 } * C  * V ^2

In this equation the energy stored is directly proportional to the the square of the potential across the capacitor

Now  since capacitance is  constant  at  \tau  =  3

        The  energy stored can be evaluated at as

         V^2 =  (0.950213 V_o )^2

       V^2 =  0.903  V_o ^2

Hence the fraction of the energy stored in an initially uncharged capacitor is  

      k  = 0.903
