Answer:

Gravitational potential energy is converted into kinetic energy

Explanation:

During an avalanche, the  gravitational potential

energy of the snow on the mountain is converted into

kinetic energy as the snow cascades down.

The potential energy stored by the snow collected high in the mountain under the gravitational field created by our Earth, breaks loose and as it comes down acquiring velocity, it is converted into kinetic energy due to its accelerated motion

Your starship, the Aimless Wanderer,lands on the mysterious planet Mongo. As chief scientist-engineer,you make the following mea
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

m = 1.26*10²⁵ kg.

Explanation:

Assuming that the mass of the stone is much smaller than the mass of the planet, we can get the mass, applying the Universal Law of  Gravitation to both masses, as follows:

Fg = G* ms* mp / rp²

Now, if we apply Newton's 2nd Law to the mass of the stone, we can get the gravitational acceleration, as follows:

Fg = ms*a = ms*g ⇒ g = G*mp / rp²

First of all, we need to get the value of g.

Assuming that this acceleration is constant, we can appy the kinematic equations to this situation.

We know that the stone is thrown upward with an initial velocity vo = 15 m/s.

At the highest point in the trajectory, just before of changing direction, the stone comes momentarily to a stop.

At this point, applying the definition of acceleration, we can write:

vf = vo -g*t ⇒ 0 = vo -gt ⇒ g = vo/t (1)

We have the total time since the stone was thrown upwards, not the one used for the upward trajectory.

It can be showed, using the expression for the displacement (which is the same in both directions) that the time used for going up, it's the same used to go down, so the time that we need to put in (1). is just the half of the total time.

So, replacing in (1) we get the value of g, as follows:

g = 15 m/s / 4.5 s = 3.33 m/s²

Now, we can replace this value in the equation that gives us g based in the Universal Law of Gravitation, as follows:

g=G*mp / rp² (2)

Before solving for mp, however, we need to get the value of the radius of the planet.

Assuming that it's a perfect sphere, we can get this value from the value of the circumference at the planet's equator:

rp = 2*π*rp / 2*π ⇒ rp = 1.0*10⁵ km / 2*π = 15,915 km.

With this value for  rp, we can solve (2) for mp, as follows:

mp= g*rp² / G = 3.33 m/s² * (15,915 km)² / 6,67*10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²

mp = 1.26*10²⁵ kg.

Definition: A potential path for the flow of electricity with at least one gap in the path that prevents this flow. The gap is u
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

Open circuit

Explanation:

An open circuit is simply an electrical circuit that is not complete. In such a circuit, there is a gap and this will not allow the electric current to pass through.

Despite all the elements being complete in the circuit, an open circuit will halt the flow of electric current and will not do deliver the necessary energy it is supposed to.

In such a circuit, the wires are cut of and not connected properly.

The reverse is a closed circuit.

a body is dropped from a height of 240m. (i)How long does it take to reach the ground. (ii) What is the velocity with which it w
kramer

Answer:

7.0 s, 69 m/s

Explanation:

If we take down to be positive, then the time to reach the ground is:

x = x₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

240 m = (0 m) + (0 m/s) t + ½ (9.8 m/s²) t²

t = 7.0 seconds

The final velocity is:

v² = v₀² + 2a(x - x₀)

v² = (0 m/s)² + 2(9.8 m/s²) (240 m - 0 m)

v = 69 m/s

Find the solution set of x + y = 5, 2 x - y = 7
STALIN [3.7K]
X + y = 5
x = 5 - y

2x - y = 7
2(5-y) - y = 7
10 - 2y - y = 7
10 - 3y = 7
10 - 7 = 3y
3 = 3y
y = 1

x + y = 5
x + 1 = 5
x = 5 - 1
x = 4
