If a 10 kg object has 200 J of gravitational potential energy, how high was has it been lifted above the ground?

Potential energy is possessed by the body while at rest while the body in motion possesses kinetic energy.
Potential energy is given by mgh where m is the mass of the body, g is the gravitational acceleration(9.8m/s^2) and h is the height.
Therefore, 200J = 10 × 9.8 ×h
h = 200/98
h = 2.041 m

Assume <em>R</em> is measured in meters (m) and <em>M</em> in kilograms (kg). Then

<em>R</em> ² / (<em>GM</em>) = [m]² / ([N•m²/kg²] [kg]) = m•kg / N = m•kg / (kg•m/s²) = s²

so <em>t</em> ² is indeed proportional to <em>R</em> ²/(<em>GM</em>).

A vector in the xy plane has components -14.0 units in the x-direction and 30.0 units in the y-direction. What is the magnitude

OverLord2011 [107]

$\huge\underline{\underline{\boxed{\mathbb {SOLUTION:}}}}$

We would calculate the magnitude by applying pythagorean theorem:

$\longrightarrow \sf{Magnitude= \sqrt{(-14)^2 } + 30^2}$

$\longrightarrow \sf{Magnitude = 33.12}$

$\longrightarrow \sf{The \: vector \: is \: (- 14, 30)}$

The angle between two vectors is given by the formula:

$\sf{\longrightarrow \small \cos \emptyset = \dfrac{(a1b1 + a2b2)}{ \sqrt{(a1)^2 + (a2)^2√(b1)^2 + (b2)^2} } }$

In two dimensional, the x axis of vector form is:

$\small\sf{\longrightarrow (b1, b2) = (1, 0) }$

$\sf{\longrightarrow \small \cos \: \emptyset = \dfrac{(14 * 1 + 30 x 0)}{( \sqrt{(-14)^2 + (30)^2)(√(1)^2 + (0)^2)} } }$

$\small\longrightarrow \sf{ \dfrac{14}{33.12} }$

$\small\longrightarrow \sf{\emptyset \: = arcCos (\dfrac{ - 14}{33.12} )}$

$\small\longrightarrow \sf{\emptyset= 115^\circ}$

$\huge\underline{\underline{\boxed{\mathbb {ANSWER:}}}}$

$\small\bm{The \: angle \: between \: the \: vector \: }$

$\small\bm{and \: \: the \: \: positive \: \: x \: \: axis \: \: is \: \: \: 115^\circ .}$

What are the two most common ways to produce hydrogen gas used in fuel cells?

Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

Steam-methane reforming

Electrolysis of water

Explanation:

Steam methane reforming involves reaction of methane with water in the presence of a catalyst such as nickel to form Carbon oxides and Hydrogen.

CH4 + H2O ⇌ CO + 3 H

Electrolysis of water involves splitting of water through application of electric current to give Hydrogen and Oxygen gas.

2 H2O(l) → 2 H2(g) + O2(g)
