A 0.5 kg stone is raised from 1m to 2m height from the ground. what is the change in potential energy of the stone?

Physics

Usimov [2.4K]3 years ago
4 0

Given: The mass of stone (m) = 0.5 kg

Raised from heights (h₁) = 1.0 m to (h₂) = 2.0 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

To find: The change in potential energy of the stone

Formula: The potential energy (P) = mgh

where, all alphabets are in their usual meanings.

Now, we shall calculate the change in potential energy of the stone

Δ P = P₂ - P₁ = mg (h₂ - h₁)

or,                = 0.5 kg ×9.8 m/s² ×(2.0 m - 1.0 m)

or,                = 4.9 J

Hence, the required change in the potential energy of the stone will be 4.9 J

What should a free-body diagram look like for a skydiver who has opened his parachute and is now slowing down as he falls?
mote1985 [20]
The last choice. Two arrows and the arrow up is shorter than the arrow down. Since the guy is falling and he’s opened his chute, he’s slowing down but he’s still falling meaning the force of gravity is stronger than the air resistance.

The nucleus of a hydrogen atom is a single proton, which has a radius of about 1.2 × 10-15 m. The single electron in a hydrogen
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer: 0.86 × 10^14

Explanation:

Given the following :

Radius of proton = 1.2 × 10-15 m

Radius of hydrogen atom = 5.3 × 10-11 m

Density of proton could be calculated thus:

Mass of proton = 1.67 × 10^-27 kg

Using the formula :

(4/3) × pi × r^3

(4/3) × 3.142 × (1.2 × 10^-15)^3 = 7.24 × 10^-45

Density = mass / volume

Density = (1.67 × 10^-27) / ( 7.24 × 10^-45)

= 0.2306 × 10^18

Density of hydrogen atom:

Mass of hydrogen atom= 1.67 × 10^-27 kg

Using the formula :

(4/3) × pi × r^3

(4/3) × 3.142 × (5.3 × 10^-11)^3 = 6.24 × 10^-31

Density = mass / volume

Density = (1.67 × 10^-27) / ( 6.24 × 10^-31)

= 0.2676 × 10^4

Ratio is thus:

Density of proton / density of hydrogen atom

0.2306 × 10^18 / 0.2676 × 10^4 = 0.8617 × 10^14

Nova, whose mass is 50kg drops 2 K, what is the amount of heat lost from Nova's body? (specific heat of the human body is 3470 J
Alex17521 [72]
Use the equation q=mc/\T, where q is the heat lost, m is mass, and /\T is the change in temperature, and c is the specific heat.
q=50kg(3470J/kg K)(2K)
q=<span>347000 J

Any other questions, just ask.
