Which property must be the same in order to stop the transfer of energy between two objects?

How much GPE is stored when an 80kg astronaut climbs to the top of a 5m high lunar lander? The gravity strength on the moon is 1

8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

The GPE, stored is 640 Joules

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The given mass of the astronaut, m = 80 kg

The height of the top of the lunar lander to which the astronaut climbs, h = 5 m

The gravity strength on the moon, g = 1.6 N/kg

The Gravitational Potential Energy, GPE, stored is given according to the following equation;

GPE stored = m·g·h

Therefore, by substituting the known values, we have;

GPE Stored = 80 kg × 1.6 N/kg × 5 m = 640 Joules

The GPE, stored = 640 Joules.

A rope pulls a 20 kg box up. If the tension in the rope is 275 N, what is the acceleration of the box?

Nana76 [90]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 13.75 m/s²</h3>

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

$a = \frac{f}{m} \\$

f is the force

m is the mass

From the question we have

$a = \frac{275}{20} = \frac{55}{4} \\$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

If Johnny won a 300 meter race in 40 seconds, his speed would be ?

irina1246 [14]

Formula: s = d/t

s = speed

d = distance

t = time

Solve using the values we are given.

s = 300/40

s = 7.5m/s

Best of Luck!

Sir Isaac Newton determined that gravity has a fixed acceleration on Earth. The earth pulls objects towards it with a fixed acce

ozzi

A. Scientific Law. The mathematics surrounding the acceleration due to gravity is a law. It is calculated from the universal law of gravity. However, the explanation of the idea of gravity is a theory. This falls back to the idea that science is about disproving ideas that we currently believe, rather than proving ideas are correct. Unless we can disprove an idea, we have to accept the possibility that it is true; the more trials we have of being unable to disprove something, the more accepted it will be. Yet, no idea can be without doubt and certainty be accepted for what it is. So, to sum it up, scientific laws are factual descriptions (by formula or word) of phenomenon which always occur given specific conditions. On the other hand, scientific theories are explanations of the causes underlying these phenomena, the explanation formulated in such a way that they can be disproven.

What is the function of nucleus in plant and animal cells

tatiyna

In animal cells, vacuoles are generally small. Vacuoles tend to be large in plant cells and play several roles: storing nutrients and waste products, helping increase cell size during growth, and even acting much like lysosomes of animal cells. The plant cell vacuole also regulates turgor pressure in the cell.
