Answer: It increased by a factor of 5

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy $P$ is given by the following formula:

$P=mgh$

Where:

$m$ is the mass of the cylinder (assumed as constant)

$g$ is the acceleration due gravity (assumed as constant)

$h$ is the height of the cylinder

As we can see, $P$ is directly proportional to $h$ . Hence, if $h$ increases by a factor of 5 $P$ increases by a factor of 5, as well.

I am thinking that maybe the problem is not with the calibration. It might be that the buffered solution is already expired since at this point the solution is already not stable and will give a different pH reading than what is expected.

A lead ball is dropped into a lake from a diving board 5.0 m above the water. After entering the water, it sinks to the bottom w

Answer:

$|D_{depth} |=19.697m$

Explanation:

To find Depth D of lake we must need to find the time taken to hit the water.So we use equation of simple motion as:

Δx=vit+(1/2)at²

$x_{f}-x_{i}=v_{i}t+(1/2)at^{2}\\ -5.0m=(o)t+(1/2)(-9.8m/s^{2} )t^{2}\\ -4.9t^{2}=-5.0\\ t^{2}=5/4.9\\t=\sqrt{1.02} \\t=1.01s$

As we have find the time taken now we need to find the final velocity vf from below equation as

$v_{f}=v_{i}+at\\v_{f}=0+(-9.8m/s^{2} )(1.01s) \\v_{f}=-9.898m/s$

So the depth of lake is given by:

first we need to find total time as

t=3.0-1.01 =1.99 s

$|D_{depth} |=|vt|\\|D_{depth} |=|(-9.898m/s)(1.99s)|\\|D_{depth} |=19.697m$
