When the height of the cylinder increased by a factor of 5from 100 m to 500 m, what happened to the cylinder's

Physics
1 answer:
Lesechka [4]3 years ago
6 0

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.

A dog pulls on a leash with a force of 15 23 is a big dog. The leash makes an angle of 36.7 degrees to the horizontal. What are
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

x = 12.027N and y = 8.964N

Explanation:

The first sentence of this question is not explanatory enough. However, I'll assume the force to be 15N

Force = 15N

\theta = 36.7 to the horizontal

Required

Solve for the x and y components

Since the given angle is to the horizontal, the x and y coordinates are calculated using the following illustrations.

Sin\theta = \frac{y}{Force} ---- y component

Cos\theta = \frac{x}{Force} ---- x component

Calculating the y component.

Substitute 15 for Force and 36.7 for \theta

Sin\theta = \frac{y}{Force} becomes

Sin(36.7) = \frac{y}{15}

Make y the subject

y = 15 * Sin(36.7)

y = 15 * 0.5976

y = 8.964N

Calculating the x component.

Substitute 15 for Force and 36.7 for \theta

Cos\theta = \frac{x}{Force} becomes

Cos(36.7) = \frac{x}{15}

Make y the subject

x = 15 * Cos(36.7)

x = 15 * 0.8018

x = 12.027N

<em>Hence, the x and y components of the force are: 8.964N and 12.027N respectively.</em>
